Whump Prompt #1375

Whumptober #25: Stitches

Your usually talkative whumpee has their mouth sewn shut.

This just allows the whumper to have more fun with them, as they're wanting to extract information from the whumpee:

"Huh? what was that?"

"I can't hear you!"

"Did you bite your tongue? Or do I need to make the stitches tighter?" (In response to the whumpee biting the inside of their mouth, causing blood and saliva to dribble through the gaps.)

"You're so boring when you can't talk, all this moaning and garbled screaming... it really grates on my nerves!"

After the ordeal your whumpee isn't so talkative anymore....

My Trash Exchange giftee @gunshou requested "twisted ultra-possessive fucked up codependent Hydra!Steve/Bucky" (which happens to be one of my favorite stucky dynamics) with a dash of body horror. Hopefully I delivered.

Just a reminder to sew your whumpee’s mouth shut when they mouth off one too many times

I'm so sorry you're having a hard time my friend. Sending you love ❤️

So, why do you like the trope "mouth sewn shut" so much? And what got you to love it? 👀

-- @whumperofworlds

Thank you so much friend ❤️

Oooh okay, so I'm a fan of characters being silenced in general, but mouth sewn shut adds the aspect of being kind of out of left field, so it's more shocking to the character in most circumstances. Duct tape or cloth is a classic, muzzles are a bit more out there, but needle and thread? It's a whole new level of horrifying.

I also like that it takes time, so there's a process to describe. The whumper has to be precise and focused, the whumpee is forced to stay still, otherwise the needle might slip. I suppose it just fits into my love for Realizations, gives the whumpee more time to think about how messed up what's happening to them is.

And, of course, I like the aesthetic.

Dick Grayson had gone missing two years ago.

Nightwing stopped making appearances one and a half years ago. (Anyone outside of the superhero community would have no idea that these were the same person and that Jason, Red Hood, had been Nightwing for six months to draw away suspicion.)

No one knew what happened to Dick. Despite his best efforts, Bruce could never find him, not a single clue. No trace left behind as to where his eldest son had gone.

At first, Dick had thought it was any other kidnaping. He wasn’t in costume so he assumed that any injuries he sustained would be minor.

His kidnappers were the average kind, the kind that kidnapped him and his family members all the time. And every time, they just waited for someone to show up and ‘rescue’ them. They didn’t need to be rescued, but Richie Grayson, son of Brucie Wayne couldn’t escape kidnappers.

So he’d waited, played the part of a scared man, played along, pretended they scared and hurt him.

And Dick waited.

But then a week went by. He wasn’t worried per se, but something felt different about it now. He hadn’t heard any talk about a ransom. No phone calls had been made. But he knew they hadn’t left Gotham, so he continued to play along.

Two weeks (at least, that was how long Dick thought it’d been) later, and still, nothing had happened. He hadn’t been moved to a new location. And aside from being a little rough with him and not feeding him enough, Dick was fine.

But then someone new showed up. The kidnappers seemed uneasy, but they clearly knew the man.

He was worried now.

The man took his time setting up a small station on a cart the kidnappers had set up before his arrival. It took an hour or so for him to finish.

When he turned to Dick, the man, who would introduce himself as Doctor Van Helsing, looked like pure evil. It was the only word that came to his mind.

Van Helsing didn’t speak much, just moved silently.

When the torture started, he continued to stay silent as he cut into him, burned him, broke bones, dislocated joints. He stayed silent as Dick screamed and cried, begging for mercy.

At first, it hadn’t been real. It had been an act to try to hide his secret, but as time went on, he was worn down, and then it wasn’t an act anymore. It was real and Dick was terrified.

He was starving and dehydrated, and he was being tortured, losing blood and fading in and out of consciousness. He’d lost count of how many bones had been broken, how many cuts and burns had been inflicted.

Now Dick just begged for a moment of relief. For five minutes with out pain being inflicted.

Van Helsing paid him no mind and continued.

It wasn’t until he was on the brink of death, a week later, that it stopped. And Van Helsing left for a day and he was finally able to rest, to sleep.

But Van Helsing came back and he came back with a team and boxes and crates of material.

A laboratory was constructed around Van Helsing’s victim. Things would only get worse from here.

Dick was placed on a gurney and then, the next day, the operations began. But there was no anesthesia, no pain killers, nothing to dull the pain. The only thing he was given was a medication that forced him to stay awake and aware of his surroundings and what was happening to him. He was left to endure on his own as his body was cut open and hands dug into his abdominal cavity, moving his organs around.

After that was over, his throat was opened up and his vocal cords and voice box removed.

Dick started trying to bite the nurse that was there. He was muzzled.

He still fought, trying to escape. This resulted in a straight jacket. When he managed to wiggle out, his arms were broken in 7 different spots on each arm.

When they healed, Dick tried again.

Van Helsing took his right arm, sawing through the upper bone of his humerus, a silent scream escaping him. Then, because Dick was determined to escape, Van Helsing took a foot. When Dick refused to cooperate, an eye was removed. And then his tongue. And then, because he’d chewed through his muzzle and started biting again, his mouth was sewn shut and a feeding tube placed.

At first, Dick didn’t think it would be permanent. He thought the stitches would be removed and he’d be okay. But as time went on, his lips started to fuse. And then they’d fused completely.

Dick Grayson no longer existed. His body did, and he was alive, but the man he’d been was dead and gone.

Now all that was left was a living cadaver.

Somehow, after seven years of searching, Bruce had finally found his son. He’d found Dick. He’d been approached by two men. They told him that seven years ago, they’d been paid to kidnap Dick Grayson, and they had. Then they told him that a scientist had started torturing Dick. And they hadn’t liked it but they didn’t step in.

But when that scientist had started with the medical torture, they couldn’t stand by anymore. When they’d tried to help, the other two kidnappers had been killed and they’d barely escaped. But they could tell Batman where Dick was.

And now, that’s where Bruce was. He was creeping through a warehouse, trying to ignore the stench of rot. But then a gun went off and Bruce froze, then ran towards the sound. Throwing open a door, he was met with a horrid sight.

A man lay dead on the ground, face blown off. And there, in the corner, was Dick. At least, what was left of him. And scratched on the walls around him was the same phrase. Bruce recognized it from a short story he’d read once with Dick.

I have no mouth and I must scream. I have no mouth and I must scream. I have no mouth and I must scream.

I have no mouth and I must scream. I have no mouth and I must scream.

I have no mouth and I must scream.

I have no mouth.

I must scream.

I don't think Fadel will particularly care that Style approached him in order to get a car. I think what Fadel will be pissed about is that KANT DIDN'T WARN STYLE THAT FADEL WAS AN ASSASSIN.

Saw trap where you get your nose sewn shut and you're put in this dark room and the only way out is to smell the perfume trail like it's some hellish perfume store.

Sew whumpee's mouth shut. Or stitch it up, same thing, doesn't matter.

Like literally.

They're gonna have to keep in their screams because they surely wouldn't want the stitches/sewings to rip, wouldn't they?

A shame if they can't hold said screams in, because the more they open their mouth, the more painful it gets, so the more they'll be close to ripping the stitches out of their skin. Because whumper will have to do them over and over again, which is possibly a lot more painful than everything they put up with daily, PLUS adding the effort of not screaming under torture.

Oh, and when they get rescued by caretaker? Pretty sure they wouldn't want caretaker to take the stitches out, because it reminds them of whumper and what they went through, but neither do they want to keep them in because, well- first of all, they can't talk, and second of all, that reminds them of whumper too.

If caretaker does get them out, imagine the scars it would leave. Bonus points if whumpee is insecure (I do think that would be a big insecurity problem) about said scars. Are they going to wear a mask for the rest of their life? Is caretaker trying to tell them that there's no need because it demostrates that they survived what they went through??

I thought embalming was standard practice for burials, but it turns out that even in the US, where embalming is unusually common, only about 50% of corpses are embalmed. It's primarily to preserve corpses that won't have their viewing for a while, or who need to be transported, or who died violently and need to be "patched up". There's no benefit to embalming for the burial or community health benefits during decomposition underground, natural burials are fine.

Anyways, seeing as Jason Todd's funeral only had four people at it, I'm positive there wasn't a viewing and he wouldn't have been embalmed. Which is probably good. idk if you can come back to life if all your blood is formaldehyde

🖊 i think Wren Will have have a panic attack if anyone tries covering his mouth in any way after he escapes Daniel. Like if his mom is wrapping a winter scarf and it accidentally goes over his mouth

Oooh I love that! Gags and muzzles are something he got so used to he doesn't really think about them post-captivity, but if something reminds him of them he'll definitely freak out.
