Desperate silence

I love it when Whumpers use silence as a weapon to either immensely unnerve Whumpee with the uncertainty or to play at Whumpee's desperation to get what they want without having to spell things out.

- It starts all simple. "Where are you taking us?" "What are you planning?!" And Whumper just leers at them, making eye contact (maybe glaring at them in the backseat through the back mirror) to make sure they know he did hear them, he's just not answering. Letting Whumpee think the worst :)

- The questions are getting more desperate. "Look, what do you want from us?! Are you going to kill us?!" And again there's no response.

- When Whumper drags Caretaker towards him, maybe not even holding a weapon yet but Whumpee is going out of their mind and their shouting is starting to resemble begging.

- "What do you want? What do you want to know? Just... just ask me anything, I'll tell you anything you want to know! You want me on my knees?!" And they immediately fall to their knees without any prompting. "There you go! You want me to beg? I will! Just please, tell me what you want!"

- Whumper holding eye contact, an expectant gaze but not saying what he is expecting from Whumpee. Maybe a smile. A fake smile that spells out trouble. Or completely expressionless, nothing to read on that face, except maybe a very feint hint of disapproval.

- Whumpee looking up, from their knees or from whatever task they are doing, desperately looking for approval. Am I doing it right? Is this what you wanted?

- "Is everything okay? Wait... did I do something wrong?" "..." "Are you... are you mad? What is it? What did I do wrong?!"

- Or worse :) "Is Caretaker okay? Is he alright?! Is he hurt?! Did you hurt him? Please, please tell me. Is he-- oh God did you kill him!?" And then they get locked in a dark room :) Alone.

- Bonus! A defiant Whumpee who just sputters and fizzles out because there's nothing to defy or who turns it into a staring match.

Astarion after burning down Cazador's palace:

@batbirdies honestly this SOUNDS like something your Jason would say

[notrobinsomethingworse]

Imagine Damian forming a plan to catch Santa Claus. He’s written a letter, accumulated some traps, and stayed up all night just just to do this. He absolutely denies believing in him BUT what if the man does exist???

Dick intercepts the letter, like the good big brother he is, gathering the forces. Tim disarms the traps, Dick and Steph both get the presents, and Jason dons a fat suit and climbs down the Wayne manor chimney (Dick owes him big time).

It’s all worth it seeing the absolute astonishment of Damian’s face when Jason starts gobbling down the milk and cookies set out (and avoids swallowing the tracker hidden inside both items) before grunting up the Chimney.

They fein all knowledge of the incident in the morning. Bruce gets an absolutely earful from Damian about “increased security on Christmas Eve.”

so glad that gravity falls is back so we can finally discuss how ford sees himself as the protagonist of every story while stan can’t see himself as anything but the antagonist

@tenebrius-excellium's post got my creative gears turning, its just a rlly good idea and i just had to draw it out a bit hehe

[vaguely-concerned]

the fact that iron bull opens his recruitment conversation with pretending he doesn't quite remember the name of the the inquisition's ambassador. Jose-what's-her-name-again. he's just a big dumb jock no thoughts head empty mercenary who likes fighting and drinking don't worry about lil old me inquisitor! I'll hit things for you if you'd like as long as you pay me! ],) and then right after he reveals he's a spy he drops that he knows not only the name of your spymaster and how she operates but also her haircolour. (but like in a safely bro-y way tho! make that fighting and drinking and fucking! I'll be useful to you but in a real meathead non-threatening kind of way I'll be too busy bedding chantry sisters to do any real harm ],) continue to not worry about lil old me inquisitor!)

god bull you're so multidimensionally and fine-tunedly full of shit I love you so much fhdksah
