Whump Prompt #1331

Anon asked:

Do you have prompts for dramatic reveals? Uncovering a character's face to show scarring, exposing a character as secretly inhuman, discovering a hidden identity, etc? Thank you :D

I have a few:

Uncovering a characters face:

  • The revealer feels physically sick when they realise who it is. Their hands shake and their mind races to put two and two together because it cannot be them… surely not.
  • The face reveal before the Final Fight is always a good idea.
  • Maybe the characters mask is damaged beyond repair, maybe they take it off because their vision is messed up by te

Exposing as inhuman:

  • Maybe this is done in a no-way out scenario where the character has to reveal their true form to escape.
  • Or they’re pushed to the edge that they cannot hide themselves anymore.
  • The character could use a glamor that falls when severely ill/injured. This could also cause issues if the characters don’t know about your characters anatomy and the way it responds to treatments

Identity reveals:

  • I like the identity that is revealed from something other than their face. Perhaps the way they walk, talk, gesture etc. Maybe it’s from a mole, tattoo, scar or freckles that the character realises it’s the whumpee.
  • This works brilliantly if the whumpees face is so bruised it’s unrecognisable, so the only way they know it’s them is from that one mole on their neck or something.
  • Shameless plug, but I wrote a faceless identity reveal HERE

Hey guys! As a writer myself, it’s hard to have a lot of resources for writing in one place. That’s why I decided to create this masterpost, and maybe make more if I find future resources. I hope you like it, and expect to see more masterposts like this in the future!

Cute Sickfic Things

• I’m all for characters at their worst, but can we talk about Character A walking in on Character B wearing their sweater, eyes glassy and nose red

• When the Character B is wearing a hoodie pulled low over their face and hands in sweater paws, wiping their nose pathetically yet so adorably

• Character A walks in with a “Honey, I’m home” only to be greeted by Character B wrapped up like a burrito, blanket trailing forlornly on the floor

• Character B is so cold and feverish, and the loving Character A stays up all night cuddling with them, making herbal tea and giving medicine until they fall asleep

• When Character B is feeling extremely weak and reaches their arms out to Character A to please carry them because they don’t have the strength

• When Character B whines and Character A shoves them away until they realise that Character B never complains unless they’re sick and immediately begins to look after them

• Character B is feverish and can’t sleep, but Character A runs a cool hand through sweaty hair and hums a lullaby until they fall asleep

• Character B is just recovering from the vomiting bug and is so weak so Character A spoon feeds them food and helps them drink water

• Fevers make Character B hyper, so Character A gently traps them on their lap and hushes them until they fall asleep, back pressed to Character A’s chest

• Character A’s wonderfully cool fingers brushing against Character B’s sweaty, hot forehead and them leaning towards the cool hand

• Stubborn Character B finally finishes that essay and Character A wraps them in a blanket and drags them to the couch to care for them

Whump prompts which are close to my heart

“That does not sound healthy.”

“Call it Plan B if you like. Hell, call it Plan Z. But I am packing the good drugs.”

“I don’t need to be able to stand. I just need to be able to shoot.”

“I can sleep when I’m dead.”

“I promise you: your head is the only thing spinning right now.”

“Oh god… is that… <I>blood</I>?”

“I’ll do this if it kills me.”

“Hey, hey, hey. I’ve got you. I’ve got you.”

“[Character]’s fine! You’re the one with the bullet holes!”

“This? This is just a scratch. I’ve had worse from my sister’s kitten. Don’t worry, I’ll get you home safe if it’s the last thing I do.”

“I don’t know… I’ve never seen [character] like this before.”

“[Character], please, I don’t have energy to waste arguing with you.”

“I don’t need your misplaced concern. I need to get the job done. You need me to get the job done.”

“Mercenary isn’t a career that comes with health insurance.”

“I’m gonna regret asking this, but, uh… why are you so good at giving yourself stitches?”

“I will not be the one who slows us down.”

“Uh… didn’t you also donate blood this morning? Because this is really terrible timing.”

“Don’t worry about [character], he’ll be fine. I’ve seen him take out a small army while he had a cracked skull and a broken arm. This is just a bit of a scratch/virus/overexertion.”

“Whoa, whoa, whoa. The fuck are you doing?! Were you raised by wolves? When you are this sick, you do <I>not</I> get out of bed. And you sure as hell do not come into work.”

“You know, normal people listen to medical advice.”

“Tell me this is not the first time someone’s made you soup.”

“When’s the last time you ate? Or even slept?”

“Do you have a headache or something?”

“Pain… is just… a construct of… the mind…”

“What could possibly go wrong?“

“Fuck… this is so above my pay grade.”

“Ok, I need you to hold me still while [character] works. Don’t let go. Not even if I scream. Not even if… not even if I beg.”

“No, don’t. Please… please don’t. Please stop! Please!”

I feel like “You know, normal people listen to medical advice” applies to every superhero in every superhero fandom ever, just saying

Caretaker comforting the whumpee sentence starters

That I am totally here for

“Slow your breathing down, you’re only going to work yourself up.” 

“It’s just me [A], I’m here with you now.” 

“Hey no, keep the oxygen mask on, you need it.” 

“Come on [A], I know you don’t want to but you need to get up instead of laying in bed all day.” 

“I know it hurts but you have to hang in there until help arrives” 

“Squeeze my hand as much as you like.”

“Focus on my voice.”

“I’m right here, I won’t leave you.” 

“I need you to relax and calm down for me, can you do that?”  

“No, no, don’t pull out the breathing tube, you need it. Its helping you breathe, you’re okay.” 

“Its just a nightmare, you’re safe.” 

“Take some deep breathes for me, focus on your breathing.” 

“Look at me, don’t watch what the nurse is doing, it’ll be over shortly”

When whumpee passes out and the person who just happens to be standing next to them has to suddenly drop everything and try to catch them, then there’s that awkward thing where whumpee’s dead weight kinda pulls them down. Reblog if you agree.

You know what I don’t get?  When fanfic authors apologize for long chapters.  It’s like?  You gave me bonus content, for free, and you’re sorry about it?  Bruh.  I have already named my firstborn after you.  Dude.

You know what else I don’t get?  When they apologize for short updates.  It’s like: look at these new words I gave you!  Sorry I didn’t give you even more free words.  Bro, that’s at least two words that I did not have yesterday.  For free.  Dude.  Thank you.

And another thing: when people drop out of nowhere with a surprise update and then apologize for it taking a while.  Like, dude, I wasn’t expecting anything, and you gave me words.  I thought this fic was abandoned, but wait: there’s more.  You just popped in and reminded me that this is a Good Fic that I should probably reread.  You made my goshdarn day.

Basically fanfic writers are under no obligation to publish anything so when they do update it’s always a net positive because the story is longer now, and I have something to read, so thank you so much to everyone who writes fic at whatever pace or quantity they want.

Explain to me how I can BOTH agree wholeheartedly with this a a reader…

AND

…really really need to hear this as a writer.

SAME. THANK YOU, OP. ♥️

My very favorite trope though

When characters A and B are facing some danger and character A puts out an arm to protect character B

Good variations:

-Character B doesn’t realize the danger until character A puts out his or her arm -Character A isn’t the larger or stronger character but still takes responsibility for character B’s safety -Character A doesn’t stand a chance against the danger -Character A continues talking like there isn’t anything wrong while standing between character B and the threat -Character A doesn’t get along with character B and/or vice versa -The danger is comically minor -Character A has seemed helpless or bumbling but is now revealing inner depths and hidden strength

other good variations:

-character B is injured

-character A is injured but trying to be protective anyway

-character B gets annoyed when they realize what character A is doing

Christmas had long been one of Tobias’ favorite holidays. Leah honestly thought he went a little overboard on his enthusiasm, but seeing the cheerful grin that everything holiday-related brought to her Dominant’s face made the two months of Wham and Mariah Carey worth it.
