Wow I haven't used this page in a hot sec. Anyways here's a prompt:

(A) gets injured in a workplace accident and (B) either 1] can't find it in them to leave (A) alone long enough to find the nearest first aid kit, has to yell for the med kit and do what they can to close off the wound, or 2] has a first aid kit on them and needs to close (A)'s sucking chest wound, tie off their mangled limb, or other severe injury

caretaker watching over a sleeping whumpee.

caretaker’s eyelids are tired, heavy, but they cannot fall asleep now. not when whumpee still needs this vigil.

are whumpee’s breaths labored? even? pained? weak, or strong? does whumpee snore?

does caretaker stroke whumpee’s hair, or hold their hand, or simply sit in silence and watch them?

has whumpee asked caretaker to do this? or did caretaker slip into the room in secret, because they need to make sure whumpee is okay?

[whumperoni-and-wheeze]

And at the same time your whumpee might need emotional availability in ways that don't fit the caretaker's ability. If this trait doesn't apply to your characters then you can skip it.

Caretakers who are low empathy

Caretakers who are too pragmatic

Caretakers who aren't emotionally available

Caretakers who aren't ready for the caretaker role

Caretakers who are easily overwhelmed with emotion

Caretakers who get angry at the whumper in ways that trigger the whumpee

We need more bad caretakers!!!

Great, now I gotta clarify since some of ya'll refuse to develop critical thinking skills:

Simply having no/low empathy doesn't make your character a bad caretaker. There's nuance to this. I'M low empathy and a majority of my friends have told me I'm a good caretaker towards them during times of emotional duress. Bad psychedelic trips, escaping their abusers, dealing with autistic burnout, etc.

That doesn't mean I can provide emotional availability, it means I provide their physical needs while they process their own experiences. They're welcome to seek emotional care from other sources, I'm not going to stop them.

Your whumpee might need extra emotional care. A low/no empathy caretaker might not be able to provide this, and your whumpee might seek emotional care from more than one person. This isn't wrong by any means.

How would the caretaker respond? Would this instill jealousy within them? Would this repeated pattern of seeking comfort in strangers cause worry? Would this even affect the caretaker until they realize something is possibly amiss in the whumpee's new dynamic?

You don't have to agree with something just because you write about it, and writing about low/no empathy characters doesn't demonize it at all. But I'm pleading some of ya'll to cast aside your dichotomic perspectives and explore a characters' nuances.

Genuinely can't believe this needs to be said but if your caretakers are 100% perfect in every way, successfully throwing aside their own needs, wants, and aspirations with no issue to care for the whumpee, your characters aren't believable and your writing is flat.

Caretaker dressing whumpee's wounds? Yes please.

"You're doing great hun, just another stitch."

"Hey you need to take deeper breaths, I'm not gonna put you into shock right now."

"We can take a short break, but I need to dress your wounds."

"I'm surprised you don't have sepsis right now, these wounds are so infected..."

"I'm gonna have to pour some hydrogen peroxide, and this might hurt."

And my personal favorite:

"Bite the belt if you need, you can't scream right now."

“You don’t have to cry, I’m right here.”

[Audio Entry 12/28/94] Confession from Suspect 4:

"Alright, fine, after what I've seen I'd take 3 hots and a cot any day.

"Of course, none of us thought we'd be there. We were supposed to be home days ago, passing around a bottle of scotch, reminiscing how it went. Instead the roles had been reversed. Our mark had us right where he was gonna be.

"Donny, poor boy, he got the worst of it. That dumbass never shut his lip for a damn thing. 'What're you gonna do about it? Huh? You gonna hit us? Gonna waste your ammo? You cravin swiss cheese, you fuckin rat???' Even when they beat him, cut him, burnt his ass, he wouldn't let up. He became their personal ashtray for a few days, they worked him over good. But he still wouldn't shut up.

"Just the dumbest shit came outta his mouth: 'Who taught you how to hit? Your wife?' Even when we squeezed our eyes shut we could hear their blows leave craters in his head.

"You got another for me, baby?" Followed by a scream I had never heard come out of Donny. I had never heard a grown man scream so loud...

"And I could tell they were sick of it. We all spent countless hours, praying, hoping, begging for some shred of decency, just for his stupid ass to tear down whatever faith we clung to.

"One day they came back into the room, glock in hand. We all knew what was happening, Donny was foolhardy but he was no fool... Can... Can I get a tissue?

*subject blows his nose*

"He didn't have to open his mouth, they grabbed him by the throat and asked if he wanted to meet god. That question was more loaded than the glock they held, but Donny knew it. They wanted him to beg, and getting that whelp to beg for his life was like bleeding a stone. Donny didn't want to live. So he spit at them.

*Subject blows his nose*

"They painted the wall with his brain matter. He didn't stand a chance. I'd like to think he was trying to take their attention from us but I know he was just mouthy.

"That dramamine you mentioned, can I get some? I'm gonna hurl if I have to remember it for too long."

The team is captured and lined up in front of their captors. The most defiant among them, of course, cannot keep their mouth shut. They mock, taunt, and jeer till one captor has had enough.

They grab the whumpee by the throat, asking if they really want to die like this. The whumpee bares their teeth with a defiant smile.

And spits directly in the captor’s face.

Branding. That's the post.

Whumper takes their time heating up their branding iron, showing their whumpee every step of the process. Panic, like rising acid, saturates the whumpee's throat as the steel turns from a deep red, to orange, to a bright yellow, then back to a deep orange before it meets their shoulder or thigh.

Losing consciousness as the iron sinks deep past their skin, into their underlying muscle tissue. The whumper left them to recover completely alone after dressing their new burn. The forge that sat cooling a few feet away helped solidify what happened, otherwise the whumpee's mind would have willingly blocked it out.

Iunno. Food for thought. 💓🤔

Whumpees who can't breathe from the pain the whumper inflicts, eventually going into shock 💞

Whumpees whose mental faculties are strained from the sleeplessness of their torture 💞💞

Whumpees who can't even look at themselves after the damage has been done 💞💞💞

Whumpees who have to sit with a mirror in front of them while they're being tortured, the mental anguish of seeing their own form becomes suffocating 💞💞💞💞

Whumpees who, when rescued, can't even bring themselves to emote. They are completely numb. The whumper did their job, they are a husk. 💞💞💞💞💞

[A] breaks a limb after a post-apocalyptic event. [B], [C], and [D] have to reset it, despite protest from [A].

[B] and [C] hold them down, [B] holds their hand over [A]'s mouth to avoid drawing unnecessary attention to their ramshackle fortress.

[D] has to disinfect their wounds, reset the bones, splint the limb, etc.

The break is severe enough to almost send [A] into shock, and [B] has to keep them focused on something else, anything else.

"Hey, hey [A], look at me, alright? That's it, just keep lookin at my eyes, you're gonna be fine."

"Breathe through your nose, [A], you can't hold your breath through this."

"HEY, no, don't look! It'll hurt worse, trust me."

"You're doing great [A], we need to stitch the wound now."

"Hey, HEY, don't start passing out on us, you're gonna be fine ok?"

Reblog the writers’ fortune cookie for luck!

[whumperoni-and-wheeze]

[A] and [B] are career assassins. [A] is mortally wounded during a hit, [B] agrees to drive them to the hospital and leave them there. [B] is bad at comforting [A] and barely fighting hysterics, instead just repeating the same lines with increasing desperation:

"I swear to God, [A], you're not gonna die."

"You're gonna be fine bud, just stay with me, it's just a few miles."

"How're you doing back there?"

"Tell me what's happening [A]"

"I'm not gonna live with myself if you die back there [A]."

(Bonus points if [C] and [B] keep yelling back and forth while [A] bleeds out.)

"Step on it [B] we're losin 'em!"

"Shut the FUCK up, I'm gettin us there!"
