#kyanako's whump

Whumptober Day 30

Hospital bed

As far as whump challenges go, I suppose this shot will be a staple.

Weave is free from captivity, but he won't be physically free to move for a long time. Never mind the emotional impact.

Amanevember 2024, Day 21

Plushie revenge

Beans turned me into a plushie, and now Amane is getting revenge for all the Bad Things that Happened to her.

She's making all the fluff go to my head. "Stop writing all that angst and whump! Go finish that fluff piece that you outlined last weekend!"

Collateral Angst - The real point of the story isn't "the victim was attacked" but "look how protective/self-loathing/angsty/loving the victim's friend is." (TVTropes)

How about collateral whump?

How does Fuuta feel about being the chew toy in any given Amane angst fic?

KIDDING (kinda). Real answer under the cut, but this is referring to the Amane timeloop angst fic by Kyanako and Nott!

Ow. Just, OW.

First and foremost, I think he’d be shocked to discover he’s not the main character. (Even in a non-fourth wall breaking sense,) I think after being so stuck in an internet environment that emphasizes the self, after envisioning himself as a hero so often, then to have his worldview shattered and believe himself a villain, it would not compute that the universe is administering cosmic punishment to some girl just a liiiittle to the left. Cue a lot of anger, a lot of attempted force to get himself out of the situation, and a lot of panic. Once he deals with the crushing blow that he’s not the special main character he thought he was, I see a few possibilities with even chances (depending on how many loops he’s been through/how the information was revealed/when the information was revealed/etc):

The first and best option is that he finds some sort of purpose in lifting up Amane. It sucks, and it’s going to get him beaten, tortured, and killed a million ways, but in doing so he’s helping the person he’s become the most protective over. He can at least take some pain away that the universe had aimed her way. She gets so much stronger and changes her frame of mind in honor of his misfortune. He may not end up on top, but he finds peace in willingly sacrificing himself for someone he deeply cares about. He'd become a more reckless and self-harming now that he sees that as his purpose, but he's happy with it.

If he’s in a slightly worse state of mind, he may come to the same peace, but for selfish reasons. He realizes he is some kind of chosen after all, since the universe is using him to lift up the true protagonist. He undergoes his suffering with the knowledge that he’s still a hero, he’s still special, he’s just special because he gets to help Amane. As his role goes to his head, he'd start trying to influence other things in the timeline, occasionally making things better but also making them worse if he tried to take on too much.

If he’s in a really bad state of mind, his desperate and hurting brain will make the connection that all this pain is technically because of Amane herself. If the universe is hurting him to hurt her, then without her, he’d be in no danger. He’d spiral – ranging from distancing himself as much as he can from her, to outright confronting her as the source of all this pain.

Not the worst but certainly not a good option – something clicks in his already-fracturing mind about Amane’s religious views and he sees the situation as his hell. God is real and punishing him for killing a young girl, so to atone he must suffer to protect His special girl. It’d be a weird mix of a mindset, since Fuuta genuinely believes he’s in hell for what could feel like an eternity until he’s paid his debt – but also retains the small hope that he’s working towards the reward of heaven. He would do absolutely nothing in this case, thinking just rolling over and going with the flow is what he's meant to endure.

[kyanako5972]

Whumptober Day 28

Survivor's guilt (alt)

Set a year before "Behind Closed Doors"

That makes Claire Inez ~29 years old

She lost someone very important. She blames herself.

[kyanako5972]

Whumptober Day 29

Labyrinth

On the way to save his son, Harry broke his legs too badly to get up.

A labyrinth should only have one path, right? So maybe this is more of a maze.

[kyanako5972]

Whumptober Day 21

Spirit possession

Ella Harmony wanders into the dollhouse and gets taken over by the resident spirit, Marilen Fiddler.

I tried to make them look like kids, but the ink might have gotten in the way.

[kyanako5972]

Whumptober Day 12

Underground Caverns

Inez and Angelo Harmony go exploring.

Magic at a cost

A satisfactory explanation will be spoilers, so the inference has been left as an exercise for the viewers.

[kyanako5972]

Whumptober Day 24

Collapsed building

Did I already mention that Weave had two older sisters?

Well, he did.

[kyanako5972]

Whumptober Day 23

Public display

Well, if "public" means everyone who lives in the research complex, captives and researchers alike.

[kyanako5972]

Whumptober Day 11

Seeing Double

POV: You just got decked, and now you can't tell if there are two of this guy, he's just really fast, or you've really lost it.

Local whump writer forced to suffer like her favorite character

Refuses to stop until character picks her up and forces the fluff into her head
