Tumble

Warnings: head injury, hurt/comfort

Whumpee's world was a cacophony of sound and blinding lights. They blinked and tried to shut their eyes tight against the light, but still the light burst through, stabbing through their skull. And the sounds they were everywhere all at once, but also nowhere. They couldn't make any sense of it.

There were hands touching them. Touching them all over. What was happening? What had happened? They needed to get up.

A cool hand touched their cheek gently. A face loomed in and out of focus above them. Whumpee could see their lips moving, the sound slowly fading in above the other noise.

"You.....took.....a.....tumble. Lie.......still." The stranger's words sounded as though they were underwater. Perhaps they were underwater.

"Wha--?" the words didn't fully form. They had to sit up.

The stranger leaned closer, their hand never leaving Whumpee's face. "'m......Caretaker.......can......you....tell.....me.....your.......name?"

What was their name? Whumpee. Their name was Whumpee.

Caretaker smiled. "Nice.....to.......meet.....you.......Whumpee."

Had they said that outloud? They must have. Caretaker couldn't read their mind. Or at least they hoped not. It was so bright and so loud. Caretaker turned away from Whumpee and the world suddenly dimmed.

"Better?" Caretaker's voice sounded closer.

"Mmmmm," Whumpee managed.

"Stay..down. Help...is..on..the way."

And though Whumpee realized that something really bad must have happened to them, they felt safe with Caretaker. And so they let themself drift a bit, knowing that help was coming and that Caretaker would watch over them.

If you’re looking for ways to improve Mario and Luigi’s room in the comic, here you go!

Was made by @zzz-mnmn100 on Twiter.

Dang, where was this when I started the comic -.-'

You know, I had expected immediate wild happenings in the politics of my country (Germany) following America's election... what I didn't expect was it being our chancellor firing our minister of finance with an honestly scathing speech.

There's something hilarious about RGB having no memory of ANXIETY of all things. Would that I could say the same.

Summary: Orlok realizes what this growing feeling inside of him means...

Translated by ear so it might not be 100% accurate.

*sfx: door closes*

“Meow”

—Ah. I’m home. So you were awake. I’ll get his food ready. You keep Notte company, alright?

*sfx: walks over*

“Meow, meow”

Here. From today on, this will be your plate. The two of us chose it together.

*sfx: places plate down*

“Meow”

Mm, it looks like he likes it for now. Is the food good?

“Meow, meow, meow”

Hm? Ah, are you saying you want to share your food with us?

“Meow”

Um, Notte. I’m happy, but she and I already ate so don’t worry. Eat up, okay? I also bought some toys, so let’s all play together later.

Hm? What’s wrong?

Eh? Ahh, I guess you’re right. It feels like he’s gotten bigger than when he first arrived. Kittens sure grow fast. I feel like his fur became a bit nicer too. It’s pitch black and beautiful. Plus, I think he’s gotten cuter since the beginning.

Hm? Why are you smiling? I’m a doting parent? Ngh, I don’t think so though…

“Meow… meow”

Ah, Notte climbed on your lap again. He’s been doing that a lot lately, huh? I suppose he likes it?

“Meow”

It looks like he feels good getting pet. It’s a bit unfair. I mean, I…

Eh? Ah—no, you don’t have to pat my head. Ah, it’s not that I don’t want you to… it’s just, I’ll get more and more spoiled…

Ngh, well… just a little then…

Mm, that feels nice. I really love your hands.

It’s because you held my hands—it’s because you didn’t shake off my hands—that I’m here right now. You have no idea how many times these hands which are smaller than mine have saved me.

Ehe, thank you. I’ve had my fill. Now if only Notte would get off your lap, it would be perfect—.

“Meow”

*sfx: licks*

Ah—t-t-that’s not allowed! Ngh…

“Meow”

Notte, no licking her mouth.

“Meow”

Nope, no can do. After all, she’s my girlfriend. I’m the only one allowed to do those things—err, n-no. You should mind too. The mouth isn’t okay, even if it’s Notte. I don’t care if it’s childish. I want to do these things properly.

I-I’m not pouting.

“Meow”

Hm, Notte? *Sigh* he looks kind of sleepy. Even though we were discussing something important. Geez.

“Meow”

Ngh, I got it. I’ll take you to your bed, okay?

*sfx: walks away and comes back*

*Sigh*. Notte’s not fair. I’m always putting in tons of effort to hold back.

Ah, what I’m holding back on is probably different than what you’re thinking.

Huh? Well, that’s… at first, I was just happy holding your hand. My chest felt warm and fuzzy. I thought, ah, I want to protect this person—no, I will protect them. I was satisfied just being able to be by your side. That alone was enough. Even so, when I kissed you for the first time, my chest became all hot. My feelings of love for you grew more and more. I wonder when it started… the feeling that simply kissing you wasn’t enough grew larger. What should I do? What do I want to do? I wasn’t sure.

Before we came to England, back when I was working in Lienz, the shopkeeper did a lot to help us out, right? At that time, I had the opportunity to ask about a-a lot of things. And so… I feel like I came to understand what these feelings of mine meant.

—But how you feel is even more important, so…! I… don’t know how to put this. Up until now, there have been times where I kissed you whenever I wanted, wasn’t there? Even if it troubled you, you didn’t stop me. Because of that, I thought that you would definitely spoil me and forgive me, and I was sure that you… also felt good when you kissed me… since you loved me. So what I want to do now… is… w-what comes after that. If you don’t want to, then we won’t.

*sfx: hugs*

Ah, h-huh? You surprised me by hugging me so suddenly. You’re kind of like Notte.

Ehe, how cute.

Hey, when you’re hugging me like this, I don’t feel as nervous as I did before. However… now, my heart races much more than before.

I want to treasure you. I love you the most in the entire world. That’s why…

That’s why…

*sfx: kiss*

Let’s… do… what comes after kissing.

So so so tempted to buy a Terzo mask and make a reliquary to display him in. Unfortunately I can’t justify buying one so I’m making a tiny reliquary for my Terzo figurine’s spare head instead

Penny For Your Thoughts

Warnings: captivity, restraints, torture, defiant whumpee

"If you just answer my questions, Whumpee, this can all stop." Whumper said for the fifth time that day. They leaned on the bat they had been threatening Whumpee with for the last hour.

Whumpee stared up at Whumper, unable to shift too much to really glare at Whumper. They were restrained at the wrist, chest, and ankles in the low chair and they could only crane their neck so far. "I keep telling you the same thing, Whumper," Whumpee smirked, their bruised and swollen lips pulling painfully tight. "I can do this all night."

Whumper raised the bat, rage contorting their features horrifically. "So can I." And they brought the bat down on Whumpee's knee.

Gloria Morales and Salim Benali bringing some 1950s Hollywood elegance to the Simblr Met Gala!

(In actuality I'm feeling a sense of ennui with this year's real life Met Gala given the state of the world but I did want to dress my pixel couple up in fancy clothes!)

WCIF Friendly as always 🌹♥️
