Ok everyone... HEAR ME OUT-

Is it just me, or Aiden's face is really squishy?

[aceofwhump]

Have you made a list or notes on whumpy Hallmark and if so where?🥺

You know what, I haven't yet! Let me do that for ya now. And if anyone wants to add their favs please do so!

A Gift To Remember: Darcy (Ali Liebert) hits Aiden (Peter Porte) while riding her bike and he gets knocked out and loses his memory. It’s pretty good.

Love on the Sidelines : Laurel (Emily Kinney) is a struggling fashion designer who finds herself with a job as a personal assistant for Danny (John Reardon), a quarterback sidelined with an broken ankle. Danny is on crutches for most of the movie and is recovery from his injury.

Spirit of Christmas: A young lawyer (Jen Lilley) finds romance with a spirit (Thomas Beaudoin) that takes the form of a human 12 days before Christmas. He was murdered and there are flashbacks to him being attacked and killed.

Christmas Homecoming: Stars Michael Shanks (Daniel Jackson from SG1!!) as an Army Captain recovering from an injury in battle. He's got a broken leg and suffers from survivors guilt and ptsd.

Hailey Dean Mysteries: Deadly Estate for some good poisoning whump of a medical examiner. You want unconscious? medically induced coma? respirator? bedside vigils? worry? waking up with a twitching hand? walking down the hospital floor holding onto their iv pole? Then this is the movie for you!

Love Blossoms: one small part when the main guy, Declan, gets sick with a cold during the movie. It’s kind of cute but the rest of the movie's got nothing.

Second Chances: "A badly injured leg forces fireman Jeff, who lost his father in a fire as a young boy, to rent a ground floor room during his recovery. Thus he moves in with Jenny, a 911 emergency call center operator, and her two young children, Luke and Elsie, who soon dote on him as an ideal substitute father and try matching him with their mother."

My Gal Sunday: Henry (Cameron Mattheson) gets shot in the beginning of the movie.

Signed Sealed Delivered Lost Without You: Oliver goes on a hike with his father. His dad trips and gets a seemingly innocuous injury on his leg but the two of them get lost in the woods and the injury turns out to be life threatening.

A Godwink Christmas Miracle of Love: Eric (Alberto Frezza) is run over by a plow near the end of the film. There's lots of surgery, worry, hospital stuff.

Retreat to Paradise: "Jordan is recovering from a shoulder injury and his grumpiness tempts Ellie, his carer, to leave him to his misery. But will romance finally blossom?"

The Christmas Waltz: Roman (Will Kemp) hits his head due to slipping on an icy sidewalk and has to go to hospital

Taking a Shot at Love: "Sparks fly between a ballet instructor and a professional hockey player as she tries to help him recover from the same injury that sidelined her dancing career." It's not got a lot of whump but it is about a hockey player in rehab.

Martha's Vineyard Mysteries series: The whole series. Jesse Metcalfe's character Jeff was shot on a previous case and the bullet is still in lodged in his back and it causes him pain a lot AND he continually has nightmares about the incident. It's great.

Mystery 101: Killer Timing: Travis (Kristopher Polaha) gets blown up and even though the aftermath doesn't last long its still wonderful. He gets knocked out, there's an ambulance and hospital scene (kinda), worried family members.

Never Kiss a Man in a Christmas Sweater: Maggie O'Donnell (Ashley Williams) accidentally breaks Lucas Cavelli (Niall Matter)'s arm while carrying a Christmas Tree and offers him a room to stay in when he can't find a hotel room cause she feels guilty.

A Timeless Christmas: Charles Whitley (Ryan Paevey) passes out in 1903 and wakes up in 2020.

Aurora Teagarden A Bundle of Trouble: Martin Bartell (Yannick Bisson) gets shot in the shoulder

Christmas on the Range: Clint McCree (Nicholas Gonzalez) is attacked and beaten up pretty badly.

Mix Up in the Mediterranean: Josh (Jeremy Jordan)'s twin brother Julian gets hurt and can’t do a cooking competition so Josh takes over.

The Christmas Cure: Mitch (Steve Byers) falls off ladder and gets a concussion

Love's Christmas Journey: Sheriff Aaron Davis (Greg Vaughan) gets shot in the leg while chasing a robber. His injury is bad and gets infected. He gets a fever and is rescued by an old man who cares for him. The wound needs cauterizing and he suffers fever, chills, and more.

Hearts in the Game: Diego Vasquez (Marco Grazinni) is a hot shot baseball pitcher who has a panic attack during a game which costs the team the game. Turns out it was triggered by the anniversary of his moms death and he has another panic attack later in the movie as well.

Fourth Down in Love is about an athlete who is sidelined by an injury. Broken ribs I think? 

Rip in Time: Another fun time travel movie. Rip (Niall Mater) gets knocked out at least once. 

Three Wise Men and a Baby: Paul Campbell's character has social anxiety and has a sort of panic attack in the park at the beginning of the movie.

Jolly Good Christmas: Will Kemp's character falls into a frozen river and he comes out shaking and shivering and she gets him a blanket and tea and he needs a hot shower. 

That's all I've got for right now. The bolded ones have the best whump in my opinion so definitely check those out first :) Love's Christmas Journey and the Martha's Vineyard Mysteries are A+ whump hallmark movies. Do those first ;)

Hold on! Wait! I just came up with the best thing ever!

Au of the modern au

Callan's a homeschooled kid from a stupidly rich neighborhood. In his free time, he likes to people watch and he notices three neighbor kids (all kindergarteners).

Talon, who's always grumpy and he sort of gets tense when his dad's around.

Hela, who's a tornado given human shape, but she's kind and funny. Her mom clearly loves her, but sometimes she can be way too strict.

And Maya, who kinda half lives with Talon's family? He's not sure. All he knows is that she is the cutest thing ever!

So Callan hatched a plan. He became sort of the babysitter for the three? He's not getting paid. He just kinda borrows them from their real bsbysitters and picks them up from kindergarten.

He gets to know them all. Who likes and, more importantly, hates what food. Who's scared of what (oh, Talon and Hela aren't afraid of anything! How wonderful!) And so on.

One day he goes to pick them up and he finds an interesting sight.

In Talon's tiny backpack, "hidden" is another kid. To be fair, the kid is really small, so he probably would fit into a regular backpack, just not a children's one.

He asks who that is. What do you mean Callan? There's no one here! Right...

Then he hears panicked yelling: " Aiden! Where are you?! Oh my god!"

Callan looks over and... sees the most handsome man that exists!

He stads there, jaw on the floor, then composes himself (he's royalty, after all). Then he looks at the kid in the bag.

"Amm... excuse me? Are you looking for him?"

The boy looks over and almost melts with relief, smiling slightly (and isn't that just the most perfect thing on this earth?)

"My god, thank you for finding him. Aiden, you scared me! What are you doing?"

"I got married on the playground today! Now I am running away with my love, Talon" he says in a baby voice.

"Oh, did you now?" Henry smiles. Then registers what his brother said

"Oh, did you now?" He glares at Talon.

"Well, I am Callan" Callan says to distract him (also, because if he doesn't let him know his name he might as well die!)

"Henry" he answers "so I guess my brother and your..?"

"Children in everything but blood and papers!"

Henry laughs

"I guess they became good friends then"

"Yeah, we may need to spend some time together because of it!"

Aww that’s so cute and funny!

It also seems like such a Callan thing to do xD like picking up and adopting random kids so he won’t be lonely? Falling in love with the first big brother of a cute kid he meets? Yes.

They can be a big family 🥺

hi nina, can I ask a little spoiler of aiden being a total sweetheart at the thanksgiving dinner? that little boy won my heart and is kinda making me want a lil baby cuz he’s the cutest thing ever 🥺

i have to constantly remind myself that i'm too young to have a baby but little baby aden (and hunter and sage) makes me very much consider. this whole chapter is a baby fever trap!

is it okay to share them having lunch instead? there's a tiny sneak peek under the cut!

“Something’s burning,” Aden says, his socked feet silent against the wooden flooring, and they spring apart while his eyes are still glued to the screen — it’s a testimony to how heavy this day is on Lexa that she doesn’t comment on that.

With a jolt, Clarke turns the burner off and pulls the grilled cheese from the pan. It’s a bit charred, but nothing that’ll make it uneatable. If Lexa wants to make a joke about how she is the disaster in the kitchen now, she only shows it through an amused smile. “How does grilled cheese and Brussel sprouts sound for lunch?”

“I don’t want the burned one.”

“That one will be mine,” Clarke says, taking the knife Lexa is offering her and cutting each sandwich in half. She looks over her shoulder to find Aden sitting on the floor now, using his feet to prop the iPad up. “Put it away and go wash your hands, please.”

Aden huffs and puffs as he drags his feet to the living room and puts the iPad on the coffee table, walking past them towards the bathroom, looking at Clarke setting the plates on the island with a grumpy face. It’s only when they hear a step ladder scratching on tile and the sound of running water that Lexa nestles against her again.

“Thank you, for looking after him today,” Lexa says, her forehead pressed against Clarke’s temple, her breath a gentle kiss on her cheeks. “I don’t know what I would have done without you.”

Clarke searches for her — fingers intertwine, palm reaches up to keep her close, her nose guides the way until they’re looking at each other. “I think it’s more him looking after me than the other way around. He’s been good at keeping me distracted.”

They part when Aden runs back from the bathroom, two wet handprints on his sweatshirt making it clear that he forewent on the hand towel. Neither comment on it, because he’s clinging to the marble countertop, going on his tiptoes to try and grab a sprout, already talking up a storm about how great they made the kids’ table.

Hi! You know how I said that Adél is the type of person who's always reassuring everyone in any way she can, cause she's afraid that someone's having a hard time and she just doesn't know (and she's low key worried that otherwise she might make it worse)? And that's one of the things that makes her and Bendegúz' friendship work?

This could totally apply to Talon I think?

Imagine Talon having a hard time, but it isn't really obvious (except to Aiden), and Adél doesn't even know that something's up, but she just keeps complimenting him, and Talon on the inside is like:😭💞😭😭😭😭😭🥺

Also, how did the Talon Hela friendship work from Hela's pov. Did she just see the most grumpy guy ever, and go: That one! I'm gonna kill him with kindness! (Most likely, she just became friends with Maya, and they were a package, but shhh)

I remember that about her! And it would be so nice, I think Talon would be flattered. Adél is just the sweetest! ^^

As for Talon and Halea’s friendship, it was a little bit more like she saw this guy and immediately declared him her number one rival xD

The longer version is that Halea met both Maya and him on her first day of guard training and they immediately butted heads.

Halea ran into him, Talon mocked her, Maya intervened. Afterwards since they’re in the same unit they saw each other more and you are right Halea in fact befriended Maya first.

You can’t get Maya without Talon, though. Not that Halea minded, she had seen through that guy in less than a day.

Also she saw Talon’s talent and was like yea, I am going to compete with this guy from now on and befriend him on the way.

And she did. She basically baited Talon into becoming friendly rivals by poking his pride. It was her greatest friendship scheme so far xD

And even Talon has to admit that they’re a good team.
