I don't see it often so i was wondering

[whump-polls]

*BBU or "Box Boy Universe" is a specific setting for pet whump stories and centered around an institutionalized form of pet whump

If you could reblog for greater sample size that would be nice :)

Whump Fans: When reading / imagining whump stories, who's POV do you place yourself in? (Separate from stories that assign a POV, what is your 'automatic' POV, if that makes sense)

The Whumpee / Victim

The Whumper / Abuser

The Caretaker

No one / Bystander

Doesn't Apply

Poll question: Do you usually "outgrow" your whump characters (stop enjoying whump for a character as you get older, specifically because you have gotten older than the character / have aged out of the target audience of the original media)?

When a member of a team has been captured and the rest of the team are given a taste of their teammates torture, would you rather:

- video footage where they can see them but not hear their screams

- audio tape where they hear their screams but can't see what's happening to them

Whump ABCs Round 2

Pick the letter group of whump tropes you like most (from the ones that won the last round)

C: Choked, Came Back Wrong, Chained to a wall, Collared K: Knife to throat, Kidnapped, Knocked out, Kneeling T: Torture, Tied to a chair, Twisted ankle, "Take me instead"

(the tropes that win this one will go against each other in a final poll to determine a winner)

[whump-polls]

potentially less out of the box in one way but moreso in another, you could include ex- in x- since it's PRONOUNCED "x"...

hmmm you are right, let's see

excluded existential crisis exchanging hostages execution exhaustion (that was in the e poll) experimentation (also in the poll) exposure (also in the poll) explosion exploitation extreme violence (not the sims mod)

maybe also some good contenders for a bonus poll

Some ideas for the whump abc's letters that were skipped!

J: Jailed, jealous whumper, jumpy whumpee, jumped, jinxed

Q: Quiet, queasy, quashed, questioning, quaking with fear

X: X-ray, xenophobia, x-rated

Y: Yelled at, yielding, "you wouldn't dare", "you're going to regret that"

Z: Zip tied, zombified, zapped

oh fun thanks! some of these are definitely a bit more out of the box but still good stuff

not sure yet but i might put these in a bonus poll or something after the others ones
