I should really have Kevin hit John with the 'god forgive us the things that we do' Marius line from les mis during his Revenge Arc. It's sarcastic and mean and John would know the reference if Zander puts on the musical as I'm imagining he would. The problem is Kevin stops being jokey when he's Mad so fitting it into when he's not seeing red but also still physically lashing out and not feeling remorse for it is something that requires a Ponder.

Whumpmas In July - Day 28

Day 28: Fill Someone’s whump prompt from Day 4

@whumpmasinjuly @whumpmasinjuly-archive

A little late because I didn't have time to write this earlier today, but here is my prompt fill

I decided to go with @pyrepostings ‘s day 4 prompt “Walking in on the Whump” because I am a huge fan of this trope.

For this one, I used my “normal” No Stands JJBA Part 5 AU that I have dabbled in a couple times in “By Midnight” and “Wrong Place, Right Time”. For context, Abbacchio is still a cop in this AU and he basically helps Bucciarati get the kids out of bad situations.

CW: child abuse

~~~

Abbacchio glanced through his notes again as he paced back and forth in the hospital hallway, waiting for the nurse to give him the go-ahead to question Giorno Giovanna. Apparently, the teen’s school had called the police about a potential abuse situation and they sent Leone over to the hospital to check it out.

            He didn’t know what was taking so long, though. He glanced around and finally spotted a nurse, waving her down.

            “Excuse me, I’m here to question Giorno Giovanna? I was told he was admitted here earlier with a broken wrist?”

            The nurse nodded. “Yes, his father just came to pick him up.”

            “I’m sorry?” Leone demanded. “I was supposed to question him without the parents here—it’s a conflict of interest.”

            “The school overreacted with their accusations,” the nurse said simply. “Giorno simply explained that he fell from his bike on the way to school and didn’t realize how bad the injury was until halfway through the day.”

            “I still need to finish my inquiry just to make sure,” Leone said firmly. I’m sure you understand.”

            The nurse sighed tiredly. “He’s in the exam room at the end of the hall. If you. Still need help, go to the nurse’s station.”

            Leone strode off, wondering if the father had shown up yet or not.

            The door was cracked as he got there, and he was about to knock when a raised voice came from inside.

            “You stupid little shit, I can’t believe I had to leave work for this. I told you to keep things to yourself.”

            “I-I tried, but the bruising…the teacher noticed—it’s actually broken.”

            There was a sharp gasp and the first voice growled. “I warned you what would happen if you made a scene.”

            Leone had heard enough. He pushed open the door and was greeted by the sight of a stocky, unkempt man, holding a fistful of the teen’s bleached hair. Giorno’s face was pale, terror in his eyes.

            “Let him go,” Leone barked.

            The man froze, releasing Giorno to turn around. His eyes went up and down Leone, taking in his uniform, a sneer briefly flickering over his face before he sniffed and straightened up, putting on a more formal air.

            “Officer, there seems to be some sort of misunderstanding surrounding my son’s injury. But I’d like to get him home to rest—”

            “Sit,” Leone snapped and pointed to a chair in the corner of the room. He was already calling for hospital security. “Neither of you are going anywhere until you’ve been questioned separately.”

            “This is nonsense, officer!” the man snapped but Leone pointed to the chair again before turning back to Giorno.

            To his dismay, the boy couldn’t even seem to muster a hopeful look, he simply looked exhausted, resigned.

            Leone held out a hand to him, motioning him to hop off the bed as the hospital security came in.

            Leone briefly explained the situation and promised to deal with the man soon. For now though, he motioned to Giorno and the boy followed him, reluctantly, flinching as the man sneered at him as he passed.

            Leone got him a drink from the vending machine and sat him down in a quiet part of the waiting room.

            “You can tell me what happened,” he said.

            “You think this is the first time I’ve talked to a cop?” Giorno asked blandly.

            Leone pursed his lips. “No,” he admitted.

            Giorno looked away, brushing a finger across his cast. “So how can you promise that this time will be different?”

            Leone took a deep breath, and thought about the other kids he had helped make their way to Bucciarati. It might not be so easy with Giorno. He still had parents—for what good they were—he wasn’t living on the streets…but yet, he obviously needed just as much help as the others.

            “I can’t promise,” he admitted simply as he took out his notebook and scribbled the address of a familiar restaurant. “But I know someone who does make a difference.”

Day 26: What is your best advice to others about creating or finding whump?

Creating: When you get hurt or sick or when people treat you like shit, take notes, write them down. Now you have a baseline you can magnify. Note how the cut itches as it heals, how the burn on one part of the hand makes another part ache or tingle. Note how it feels when sickness creeps in, how long it lasts. How people in power react when you challenge their mistreatment of you, or how it felt to challenge them, the way your heart might race, how you can go from riotous confidence to 'oh no there's going to be Consequences'. Now multiply that by the stakes of the story.

Finding: Tags are so neat. If everyone tags properly then it's just a matter of searching for what you want.

"It's ok, I know I can't control that."

"Control what?"

"Anything."

[pyrepostings]

Day 20: What are some of your favorite fandoms to create or enjoy whump in? (People will message you on Day 25)

Free Birds and Fiddlers is Set in the Attack on Titan universe, but idk how much that counts if I'm barely acknowledging the canon characters exist outside of like. systemic pawns in the Over There.

Alternatively, my roots as a reader are in my little pony grimdark, so while it's been awhile, I will gladly talk about or give a recommendation or two.

Other than that I don't really seek out a lot of fan whump? I prefer original whump fiction nowadays unless it's something I've been following for awhile.

[pyrepostings]

"I said sit down, or do I need to order you to?"

"If you're going to threaten orders immediately then it's already an order, but fine."

"See? You're learning."

Day 19: Create a whump meme!

When you get your blood drawn and you're hoping to get some whumpy details for writing but instead everything goes smoothly and painlessly:

[pyrepostings]

CW: fictional child abuse mention, minor whumpee

Mild twisting of the "creepy victorian children singing nursery rhymes in the distance" trope:

a person who abuses children and is generally getting away with it due to their position of power or the kids being removed from the area before they can say anything. Maybe this is a child soldier/bbu recruiter. Maybe they target a class of people that won't be listened to or that has any power to Do anything.

Now imagine this person captured. Restrained and blindfolded. Possibly beat up a little in the process.

Now imagine them hearing the door open. And a Very Clearly Adult voice starts humming the little people/gavroche les mis song.

Because you better run for cover when the pup grows up!

[pyrepostings]

"I am willing to believe this is a misunderstanding. But for that to happen you have to let me go right. now. And apologize."

[pyrepostings]

Oh I have a Very Important Vampire Question:

If the venom works like a snake's that is to say produced in glands in the mouth connected to the fangs but not In the fangs, does that mean a human could get high off of it by just deep kissing or is that something that needs to make direct contact with their blood to work.

[pyrepostings]

Going through songs I haven't listened to in ages for the playlist wij prompt, and

rvb season 10 ost: Terrify

"run all you want you'll be dying with your boots on"

yep this song's going in the playlist

[pyrepostings]

Day 5: What ten words or phrases give you the whumperflies?

"Please, don't"

"I've had worse"

"Just don't hurt them"

"I'll be good"

"I won't let them hurt you"

"You said you wouldn't"

"What do you want from me?"

"I really thought I could handle it"

"You know I would never let my pretty things go that easily"

"I thought you were dead" "So did I"

[pyrepostings]

Day 4: Post a whump prompt for someone else to fill on Day 28

Walking in on the whump.

Hello! You can call me Pyre. I've been in the whump community for about a year now, but have been into 'dark content' my whole life. (Shout out to the my little pony grimdark dramatic readers who said kids under 13 shouldn't be watching their content or YouTube at all, when I was 11. They were probably right, but enough about that.)

On this blog you may find a wide variety of whump tropes. My recent favorites are vampires, defiant whumpees, and noncon. And burning. I love burning. I'm actually burning right now in real life. (I have two different types of burns planned for burning prompt day this merry whumpmus!)

Things you most likely will not find here: Eye whump, or certain types of pet whump that feel too 'soft' or particularly heavy on the kinky side.

I post prompts, and also a story called Free Birds And Fiddlers centered on Kevin my dear oc, if I ever get around to it I'll start posting The Washouts starring Kaz in the same universe, and maybe maybe one day the muses will allow me to figure out the modern setting homemade boxie story I've been simmering at Very low heat in the back of my mind for months now.

🔪 Name: Pyre

🩸 Pronouns: She/they/any

🩹 Years of Whumpmas Participation: first time!

🔪 Favorite season: Autumn, when it starts cooling down but it isn't Cold cold yet. And spooky season.

🩸 Average amount of sleep: I do generally get 8 hours, and I Feel it when I don't get it.

🩹 Dream Job: Hard to say. I wanted to deliver mail for a bit but I failed the usps personality test. I guess kinda what I do now, except they let me stand in a corner and focus on prepwork instead of juggling prep and tickets at the same time. I would be such a good prep cook.

🔪 Blog established date: Are we supposed to just know this? About a year ago I think.

🩸 Username/blog meaning: my main blog's name is kind of a reference/inspired by the fyreUK build team that worked on some builds for Mianite (smp), I kinda grew attached to the fire aesthetic, so I carried it over with some alliteration to my whump writing blog.

🩹 Hobbies: other than the obvious, I knit, sometimes. I play minecraft.

🔪 What you love about whump: The vulnerability, the taking things to the extreme most media will reign in before it gets that far. Something whumpers will say is 'you don't know a person until they're an inch from death' or some variation, and I think that's true. You don't really know The Character until you've put them through the worst hell you can think of.

🩸 Anything else to add: I think this is the first month long whump game I'm going for full participation in, so let's see if that actually works out lol.

Welcome to Whumpmas in July 2025! 

Thank you for patiently waiting! As a reminder, we will not be reblogging any creations on this blog and will instead keep this blog as a space to only post the prompts, tags, and relevant information. We will post the tag for each day, and we ask that you use two tags when filling prompts this year so that others may find your creations easily:  Tag 1 —> #wij25day__ (Fill in the blank with the appropriate day number for the prompt you are filling!

Similar to previous years, all prompts and other important information will be found under the #infowhumpmasinjuly tag and #infowij25 for ease of access. This blog will also use the tags #wijquestion , #wijcommunity , and #wijprompt respectively for each post so that you can filter and find the type of prompts you’d like to do.
