just finished season 3. I will be choosing to ignore the last few minutes and I will pretend that arthur and john drive away while eating the bread. its sourdough and arthur discusses different types of bread and why he does and doesn't like each. arthur explains sourdough starters to john and john is throughoughly horrified. then arthur explains everything that happened while john was gone. then once in a normal area they stop at a motel and arthur has a real shower. then they go to a pharmacy and arthur more properly bandages and cleans his stomach wound. then they go to a burger place which arthur absolutely devours and explains how incredible they are to john. they get something sweet with it, perhaps a cookie or a brownie to make up for arthur's blood loss. if not, a coke. then they drive off into the sunset happily ever after!!!!!!!!!
#malevolent podcast#jarthur#malevolent#arthur lester#so i was thinking about how its unclear what foot john controld#becsuse in the show john doesnt specify nor does it in the wiki#however in part 28#while they are driving#arthur asks john to slow down#this implies that john was controlling the gas#implying that its his right foot#however i dont know how john would know how to use the pedals#plot hole i guess#but its ok bc we know its arthurs right foot now#(no one cares but me)

NaNoWriMo Day #28
[masterlist] [part one] [part two]
No prompt this time, I just really wanted to write this continuation ^ā _ā _ā _ā _ā _ā _ā _ā _ā _ā ^
=============ā¹Ā«āØā¢Ā·āĀ·ā¢ā©Ā»āŗ=============
While the kidāDannyātook care of his business, Jason busied himself with getting the pancake batter mixed up, mind whirling with the thoughts he'd set aside the night before. Questions about how Danny had gotten to Gotham, how he'd gotten into Jason's apartment, and how the kid had done whatever it was he'd done tangled and spun around inside his head, mixing with thoughts and theories about what, exactly, had happened last night. He knew he'd probably have to tread lightly with the conversation topics at first, the kid looked like something a half dead cat dragged in and would most likely be standoffish at best. Jason knew himself, though, and with how badly he wanted answers, well... He wasn't sure how well he'd be able to handle taking the slow approach this time around. He'd just have to do his best and hope to high heaven that he didn't drive Danny away by being too pushy.
Danny made his way into the kitchen just as Jason was mixing the last of the big lumps out, causing Jason to grin. "Good timing," he said, setting the bowl down on the counter, shuffling a few steps over to turn the range on at a low heat. He bent to dig his pancake skillet out of the cupboard, he didn't make pancakes often enough to keep it readily available, though he did make sure to bring it every time he moved safe houses. A good pancake skillet was hard to come by, and he refused to dishonor Alfred's special pancake recipe by using a subpar pan if he could get away with it. "So, Danny, what do you like in your pancakes? I've got a few bananas that haven't gone bad, some walnuts, chocolate chips, one of my brothers left a jumbo container of peanut butter M&Ms last time they were over, and I've got some precooked bacon we could crisp up to crumble and throw in if that's your fancy." Jason glanced over his shoulder as he stood up with the pan in hand, pausing when he saw Danny's wide eyed expression. "What?"
"You... You can put all that stuff inside your pancakes?" Danny asked in shock. His big blue eyes seemed to shimmer with barely contained awe, his shaggy hair and oversized blue hoodie combining with the expression to make the kid seem even younger than he likely was.
Jason carefully sat the pan down on the range before turning to Danny with a raised eyebrow. That protective something was rising in his chest again, and he wasn't sure he wanted to stop it. "Kid, we can put all of that and more in our pancakes, if we want to. Who's gonna stop us?" Even with his crappy childhood, Jason had known you could add things to pancake batter before Bruce had taken him in! He'd never done it before that point, but that was excusable in his opinion. Not knowing it was possible in the first place wasn't.
=============ā¹Ā«āØā¢Ā·āĀ·ā¢ā©Ā»āŗ=============
After a filling breakfast of chocolate chip and bacon pancakes, with milk and applesauce packets so their meal was a tad bit more balanced than it otherwise would be, Jason finally decided to try getting some answers from the adorable kid who had mysteriously entered, and likely saved, his life. He just wasn't entirely sure how to start. Over breakfast, they'd asked each other some basic getting-to-know-you questions, so Jason knew Danny was ten and liked space, heroes, and the color mars red, and Danny knew Jason was twenty-one and liked books, guns, and the color burnished gold. How was he supposed to move the conversation in the direction he wanted to take it without just outright changing subjects? He must be more out of practice with social interactions than he'd thought if he was struggling this badly.
Luckily, though, it seemed Danny had no problems with getting down to business. "Alright, you said you had questions. I'm assuming most of them are about what happened last night and the rest are about me. Am I right?" He was a blunt little bugger, too.
"Pretty much," Jason said, nodding.
Danny nodded as well. "Right, well, we can do this the kinda quick and fairly messy way, or the much slower and more complete way. Which would you prefer?"
Jason raised an eyebrow at that. "I'm assuming one of those is me asking questions and you answering them?"
"Yep, and the other is me just starting from the beginning and answering any questions at the end," the kid agreed. Danny looked him dead in the eyes. "I don't have anywhere to be for at least the next few hours, but I don't know if you do, so you get to decide how we do this."
He thought about it, and the repercussions of both options. The "quick" and dirty method would theoretically get his questions answered quicker, but was liable to give him more questions and end to taking longer than either really wanted it to, while the "longer" and cleaner method would take longer to answer his questions, but would also give him most of, if not all, the context he'd need to actually understand the answers to his questions, and potentially be quicker in the long run at that. Jason nodded, decision made. "Let me tell my family I'm alright, then we'll start from the beginning, yeah? And we should probably move to the couch, it'll be more comfortable than the dinner table."
=============ā¹Ā«āØā¢Ā·āĀ·ā¢ā©Ā»āŗ=============
ļ¼¼ā (ā āā oā āā )ā ļ¼ I GOT INSPIRATION! I know I said I'd only use prompts this month, but they were starting to make me want to tear my hair out, and I like my hair (ā ļ¼ā ^ā Ļā ^ā ļ¼so yeah, these last few days will be free days where I can write whatever the fudge I want to. I'll probably write part four of this sooner rather than later, and I'm thinking of writing a part three for the fake cryptids au, as well. Here's hoping everything goes to plan (ā ^ā ļ½ā ^ā ;ā )ā ć
I'm too tired to be able to go through with tagging everyone who asked to be tagged in part three of this ficlet series, so I'm just going to hope this makes it to everyone who wanted to see it even without me tagging them. Maybe if I weren't so tired, I'd take the time to tag people, but ĀÆā \ā _ā ą¼¼ā Ā ā ą²„ā Ā ā āæā Ā ā ą²„ā Ā ā ą¼½ā _ā /ā ĀÆ I'm trying not to fall asleep as I write this (ā Ā“ā -ā ļ¹ā -ā `ā ļ¼ā ) so yeaaaahhh, I'm going to finish this up and get myself to bed ą²”ā Ā Ķā Ā ā Źā Ā ā ą²”
Have a good morning/day/night!

New kings but spice it up for my dietary needs :'''''' if you are anywhere near those scenes
WIP Wednesday - Closed (9/13/23) | New Kings AU
"So we're still pretty sure that Riko remembers too right?" Allison says into the bus with Seth slumped against her dead asleep. None of them were letting the senior out of sight any time soon.
"Considering everything with Millport? Pretty much 100%" Neil responds as Andrew continues to try and get Neil's hair under control after he fell asleep with it wet from their shower last night.
"So how rude are you going to be to him on Live television?" She asks.
"Hey, I'm not looking to deal with him being all weirdly obsessed again if it isn't and I don't even know what Riko would do if it is the one we had to deal with." Neil says and there is a pointed silence on the bus as everyone looks at Neil, "I can play nice on TV! I had media training!" Neil exclaims.

Omg you're back again hello š how have you been????
Big mood on the "man I wish this author would finish their fic" LOL I've been rereading my own wiring recently and going wtf. Where's the rest of it?
For a limited time only babyyy
But I've been good. Extremely busy but it's okay, the pto is worth it. That's what I keep telling myself at least :) but how are you??? Is anything interesting happening? New developments perhaps š
The funny thing is that I've actually been talking with a few mutuals, and they've all told me that they recently went back to re-read their drafts. Maybe it's something in the air or we're all feeling a bit nostalgic? Or because everyone is on break since it's summer.
#cattycattitude#im self projecting#Right?? When I read an incomplete fic#I don't hound the author down to finish it because it's rude as hell and things take time. People are busy#not in this case. I have a direct open line of communication with this author and they are about to receive a very strongly worded pep talk#you know what i think it could be#and take this with a grain of salt cause I'm speaking from my experience#but i feel like since we know how we want the story to go#and we've basically crafted the entire fic in our heads#we only pick the parts that we really like#for example when go back to rewatch clips from a movie#we just watch the parts that we like#i dont give a shit about the random conversation 28 mins into the movie#but its important because it advances the plot or it serves another purpose but regardless its important#but since im writing it I have to add in that random conversation otherwise the fic doesn't make sense#but thats BORING#I DONT WANNA DO IT#so rather than just sitting down and taking the 2 minutes to write that dialogue#i just push it to the side and pretend that ill come back to it#but i dont cause its always going to something boring to me even if it really isn't#super duper big mwah#lovely person#ask

Hi! As a new Cillian fan, and a longtime fan of whump, I have a question...I see a lot of whumpy GIFs of Cillian injured and hurt, but I was wondering, are there any movie scenes where Cillian comforts or looks after somebody else who has been hurt? š I have seen Peaky Blinders and Oppenheimer, but I still have to work my way through the rest of his work š³ I would appreciate any pointers. Thank you!
Hi, anon! First of all, welcome to the fandom ā¤ļø We're happy to have you here!
And that is a very good question... I know of a few scenes that might fit what you're looking for, but admittedly I still need to make my way through a large portion of his work as well, so this is by no means comprehensive haha. If anyone else has any to add, please feel free!
Slight spoilers for various films below the cut.
Off the top of my head, there's one EXTREMELY brief scene in Sunshine where he (kinda sorta?) comforts one of his fellow astronauts after a whole lot of scary space shit goes down and they both get hurt. Idk, she's not very comforted by him, but he... tries(?) This one is definitely a stretch.
A Quiet Place Part II has some scenes that might fit the bill a bit more. In various scenes, he picks up and carries several people who have been hurt or are in danger. (Honestly it is worth watching the movie for this aspect alone, imo, if you're like me and enjoy fantasizing about getting carried around by strong men) *ahem* In another scene, he reaches out to comfort a small child who appears to be in distress. He also has a very sweet, fatherly figure type of relationship with the main character in this movie, who has been through a lot of emotional pain. But I would say it's more of a "they help each other find comfort" kind of vibe than exclusively "him comforting someone else."
I feel like 28 Days Later might be the best for what you're looking for, out of the films I've seen. I can't tell you why without giving away basically the entire plot, but a few minor scenes throughout and one big one specifically near the end give me these vibes.
But honestly, I have to admit that I'm kind of struggling to come up with moments where he's comforting someone else but isn't also hurt himself haha. Apparently we just all love beating this poor guy up too much.
Hope this helps, anon, and sorry if none of these fit exactly what you were looking for! If not, hopefully someone else can chime in with something that does <3

theOrEticalLy . if I opened commissions at some point. would there be. a smackerel of interest . ??
#i have never opened them bc itās intimidating and I donāt know how to price things!!#but mostly bc i work full time w a good salary so I donāt really need side things to make money#like it feels selfish to suggest that people should pay me to make fanart?? When#a) I already do that for free bc i enjoy it lol#and b) there are so many creators out there who are struggling to make ends meet#and I am privileged enough to generally not have to worry about that#this would be just like extra spending money to fund my scented candle habit DHDJDN#and the clothes I just bought while trying to Discover My Vibe and Finally Be Myself (at age 28 lol)#also tbh it would likely be reinvested in other commissions bc I buy commissions fairly often lol#anyway. idk the idea of commissions always sounded cool but also guilt inducing and scary#it feels weird and silly bc it would make me have to take my art seriously if that makes sense??#like me saying āI think Iām good enough at art that people would buy it from me.ā that feels so bold and like. arrogant or something dhjsjd#coming from me I mean. just a silly little guy who still struggles to draw human limbs properly#ok Iām thinking about how Iād have to make a commission sheet and put a dollar sign on my art and Iām aaaaaaa#and Iād have to execute exactly what people want and what if I canāt!!!#omg ok maybe noT help lol#well im not committing to anything rn im simply. asking a question while the dash is asleep and then running off to bed seeya#i think part of me always wanted to try commissions to see if I could be a Real Artist about it ??#and potentially end up with like. Portfolio pieces ??#why I would need an art portfolio I donāt know. I am an editor. What do I think I will be doing here#ppl left comments on my animatic that have been giving me crazy what if thoughts. sit down#donāt look at me#ohhh swirly brain thoughts I need to sleep

So here's something I thought abt Friday
What if their was an another and WAY more disturbing way to merge with your element
What if when an elemental master starts to lose their mind and drive into insanity there's like stages of what's going to happen to their element. At first, their element starts to act out, but slowly like once every 5 days, then if the elemental master's mental health has done nothing but deteriorate, then I'm the element just starts lashing out and complete going after the stuff and ppl around the elemental master as a way to WARN the elemental master to stop and get the help they need. But if nothing happens then the element slowly starts to merge with the elemental master and they won't realize it until the transformation is more than halfway done and by then, there's nothing they can do abt it besides let it happen unwillingly. And once the merging part is completely finished, the elemental master starts to slowly lose their memories bc it's the only thing the element can do to put the elemental master out of their misery. Once their memories are completely erased, they're officially one with their element and don't question it at all. Unlike Nya, who did manage to separate herself from her element, the elemental master that went insane CANNOT separate from their element or remember anything from their past, no matter what happens, they're just stuck there for the rest of eternity.
#yeah....#dont ask me why i thought this#it was like 4am and ive been awake sicne 2am at that point#elemental masters#disturbing thoughts 101#idk#ninjago#morro#ice emperor#villains in ninjago were a major part of the topic#i really thought this all throughš#i thougth abt thos with villains like the ice emperor and morro and realized they werent insane#with morro he was just thirsty to become the green ninja thats pretty much it.#and with the ice emperor he was kinda just a child listening to his parents#pay attention to s11 we never rlly see him make a decision for himself#heck the quest for the lost powers book even says something abt it#rlly the only time we actually see the ice emperor make a decision for himself was in ep 28 when he put lloyd in the dungeon#thats pretty much it.#ok im gonna write that fic now

Heyyyy I know two was only there for like 2 chapters but you got me OBSESSED with him. Would you be willing to write just a short little bit on his character design and personality? If you know what I mean? If not thatās all good. Love your writing and even your side characters get me so hyped!
@rivalriotrenegade
lol i'm glad Two hit you like that, i've got some ideas for little bonus side story type deals, including more of the off page fight and confrontation, but maybe something else too and maybe i could uncover a bit more about their deal.
i'll put it on my list - but all that stuff is for after the official finale in october
#asks#nothing's wrong with dale#two#there's nothing officially more for Two in the main story beyond a few mentions#two is a mean-y but they're not total scum like lasky#so i could b talked into doing a little something more with them#they've got their own thing going on with each other#but they're not opposed to company#trying to finish part 28 now#but its another long one - at 6.5k right now#but hopefully close to the end#will b posted tomorrow

YAY!! More works in progress emoji ask game!! questions!! Thank you so much for sending these my way! I love ask games! If anyone else wants to send some in or reblog the list it can be found HERE. I also apologize if some of my answers are repetitive.
š„ - your most smutty wip
As the least confident and most awkward smut writer in existence (it always comes out so cringe and then I lose track of body parts and it's all just a mess) On a Friday is shaping up to be my smuttiest WIP which... makes sense with it being an omega verse fic. I hope I can get it together enough and write a few half way decent spicy scenes for some of the upcoming chapters.
š - wip you think people will like most
According to my polls Make Way for Ducklings and anything to do with the Infection Verse are always really popular - I also think people will enjoy the SATVB sick fic when I get it together and post that one as well! I'm going to be honest though, I hope people enjoy ALL my fics
Thank you so much for sending me these fun questions!! I'm so grateful that people are willing to not only read my fics, but chat with me about them on the interwebs! I hope your Wednesday was wonderful and that you have a lovely rest of your week!
ā¤ļøAlly
#allylikethecat#ask ally#anon ask#keep it kind#fanfiction#matty fic#gatty#fanfic#questions#answers#works in progress emoji ask game!!#on a friday#omega verse#omegaverse#i really really wish i was better at writing smut#like i am a 28 year old woman i am familiar with spicy times#and i also read a lot of smutty romance and smutty fanfic#but i start trying to write it and its like what is a penis#and then i lose track of body parts and suddenly there are six arms and three legs and and that position isn't physiclaly possible

i love how 28 days later aint got any votes on your vibes poll cause you distanced yourself so much from the fact you were forced to endure living in england for 10 years of your life.
my dark past
#me forcibly being moved to england as a young teenager is somehow so insignificant to my identity its crazy#i belong in the south. that was the only place in my life i have ever felt accepted#truly the only environment ive lived in that is as crazy as i am#also the funniest part about me living in england im like pretty much fully an outcast solely due to the fact that im perceived as american#brexit failed coz when people know me as a hungarian they treat me with more respect than when they see me as american#which is also such a huge change from how things used to be pre brexit but im ranting atp#crazy#anyway 28 days later hits coz when i lived in north london it looked like the movie and it makes me nauseous#also cillian š¤¤#asks

dangling earring george is everything to me
currently thinking about ta!matty making his debut as music industry event arm candy
LISTEN LISTEN LISTEN this is the scene that i hold so near and dear to me. i almost don't even know how i would write it, when in their timeline i would write it, even if i should even dare write it i love it so much. it is going to be such a big deal for george-- he's going to be so happy and show him off for every camera.
the idea of matty getting all dressed up very Classic Black Tie (bc he can't wear the suit jacket with the elbow patches no matter how much george tells him he should. that's for the faculty luncheon, george. not the brit awards or whatever) with his new glasses (his prescription changed again.) and thin silver hoop earrings and nervous smile, standing by the front door waiting for george to finish getting ready (Matty got dressed about two hours too early he was so nervous). then down walks man of the hour, guest of the evening, george daniel in his typical loose-legged trousers that are tight at the waist with the cleanest creases, shirt that is barely buttoned, all his accessories (rings, necklaces, bracelet, and one very delicate silver dangly earring), and the brightest happiest smile.
george typically hates going to music industry events so he is thrilled to be going with someone he can talk to (not mention someone he's in love with). meanwhile matty has never had someone interview him before without the end goal being scholarship money so he doesn't know what he's going to do if someone asks him a question about something that isn't george... lucky everyone there loves matty and keeps pestering george why he didn't bring him along sooner.
#producer george and TA matty fic#also the idea that matty's not even nervous because the other people there are famous or Part of Culture#he's just nervous because he really only knows a lot about Literature and books#and he liked george immediately at first meeting because he knew a lot about something completely different!!#but now. EVERYONE knows about that different thing and he... he does not...#he can carry a tune he can sing george's demos for him but he's not a pop star he's not a performer he's not *funny* (he thinks)#he can make old men in the classics department laugh not people making the music he hears around campus on Frat House Row#he's only like 28 but he's never felt so fucking old#asks#answered#also hi anon thank youuuuu xoxox

I have just been reminded that not all information exists online, even when it seems like obvious information that should be easily available. How frustrating.
Solution: ask a librarian.
#i fell down the rabbit hole of researching what life without parole means#then i foudn out that the us is the only country in the world currently imprisoning children for life without parole#then i found out the only 28 states have banned this practice - shockingly including my own.#i did not expect this level of decency from my local lawmakers#anyways what i can't find is WHEN or how or why my state banned this practice#and i am desperately curious#my university has a chat line to ask librarians questions and i have emailed them. with citations of the articles that tell me the ban exis#anyways librarians are great. the chat function is also great because i would never approach a librarian in person unless i was desperate#i am afraid of human interaction#this is the perfect example of how research rabbit holes work#actually even before the life without parole part i was actually researching serial killers.#and before that it was a specific family of serial killers. because my university anthropology department is doing archaeology about them#and emailed me a podcast about that research#and that is where the last 3 hours of my life went#hylian rambles#i still have not answered my initial question about life without parole

They are meant to serve as inspiration without being taken literally (e.g. you donāt have to include the exact wording of prompts into your work). Feel free to run rampant on interpretation. For example, if the prompt is āflame", you could create something with reference to a candle/campfire, your character could have suffered a burn, or the flame could be a reference to an āold flameā - an old relationship. Itās truly down to you!
In total, there areĀ 4 prompts for each day. These are optional suggestions and can be used in conjunction with the theme, or as options/alternatives.Ā We want to give everyone as much creative freedom as possible, as well as increase event accessibility for folks with triggers and squicks. There is also a list of 15 alternative prompts that can be subbed in for any day, again to give participants as much creative freedom as possible.
Creators canĀ PRODUCEĀ work in any media they choose, including but not limited to: writing, visual artwork, photo/video/audio edits, paper crafts and elaborate recommendation lists (not just a list of links). Creators canĀ PARTICIPATEĀ as much or as little as they want (i.e. you donāt have to do ALL the prompts if you donāt want to) and prompts can be used in any order. They are also free to use even after the event ends.

PLEASE BE DILIGENT WITH YOUR TAGGING. Only properly tagged posts are considered for archiving on the officialĀ @whumptober-archiveĀ blog. They must be tagged in the order above.Ā An elaborate post about our tagging system can be foundĀ [here]
Unfortunately, due to the sheer number of participants in recent years, we cannot guarantee your work will be archived. A random selection of properly tagged posts from all genres will be reblogged each day.
Whumpers who produce content for 31 total theme days are consideredĀ event completionistsĀ and will be tagged in a masterpost at the end of the month. A form will be published at the beginning of November asking you to tell us if you completed. This is based on trust and we will not check this.
Frequently Asked Questions
Please read this before you send an ask!
TIMELINE
July: Trope voting form released. Late August: Prompt list is released for at least four weeks of preparation time. Tropes cannot be posted earlier than August 25th because of Moderator obligations in real life. (But, you know, go ahead and start writing/drawing, and add the themes in later, if you want!) September: Do as much or as little on your works as you want. You can prepare everything in advance or let September go by with vibes and start working in October. Itās up to you. October 1st: Challenge begins! A storm of whump breaks upon us all! During this time, some posts will be reblogged to the whumptober archive blog. We open the yearly AO3 collection for posting (optional). November 1st: The challenge is officially over! Completionist form opens for those who want to be included in the hall-of-fame. Early November: We release completionist and participant badges, solicit feedback, and post a hall-of-fame list of completionists by the 10th.
PARTICIPATION AND COMPLETION
Q: What counts as participation? Create or continue at least one work inspired by one of this yearās prompts. Q: What counts as completion? Creating work(s) inspired by at least one prompt from each day (or alts), for a total of 31 unique prompts. Q: Do I need to create 31 works? No. You can, if you want. Or you can create one work that you add to every day with a new prompt. Or several works that combine prompts. You can also update an existing work by adding new material with the current prompts. Q: Do I need to post my works somewhere to be a completionist or a participant? No. Q: How do you know I actually completed the challenge? Weāll take your word for it! Q: Do I have to finish my work(s) to be a completionist? No, you can post WIPs. And youāre not obligated to finish them in October, but if you want it to count towards being a completionist, you must have completed 31 prompts by the end of the month. So for example, if youāre writing a long fic and you fit 31 different prompts into the writing you did in October, itās okay if that fic isnāt finished by the time October ends, youāll still be a completionist. Q: Is co-writing/illustrating allowed? Yes, absolutely, and it would count towards being a completionist for both/all of you. Q: Is there a min/max limit on word count for written works? No. Q: Is there a min/max limit of quality for art? No. Q: Do I have to do something each day to be a completionist? No. You can skip days whenever you want, and as long as 31 daily prompts (or alts) are in your works done in October, you can be a completionist. For example, if you wrote a 1000-word ficlet that covers prompts in days 2, 3, and 17, you can check all three days off your list even though itās only one work. Q: Is this challenge just for fics? No! Artworks, GIFsets, headcannons, rec lists, poetry, moodboards, or any other creative work is encouraged. Q: Can I combine Whumptober with other creation challenges? Absolutely, as long as the other challenges allow it too.
PROMPTS
Q: How do the prompts work? There are FOUR prompts per day: a theme and three ideas. You can use one, two, three, or all four prompts for each day. If you donāt like any of the daily prompts, you can substitute one of the ALT prompts instead. Q: How strictly/literally should we interpret the prompts? As literally or as figuratively as you want. For example, if the theme is WATER, that could mean drowning, waterboarding, raining, swimming, take place underwater, be lost at sea, construct a metaphor about a characterās mood that changes like a flowing river, crying, or whatever else you can think of that fits that theme. Q: Can I combine prompts? Is there a limit on how many? No limit and combine as many as youād like. If you create a work that checks off multiple prompts, that work will count for a fill of multiple prompts. You need to address 31 different prompts to be an official completionist, but you donāt have to produce 31 separate works.
WORKS
Q: Whatās whump? Hurting a character, whether thatās physically, emotionally, intellectually, psychologically, or any other way you can think of. Comfort afterwards is optional. Angst is emotional whump, so it counts. Q: How do I know if itās whumpy enough? If your character is just mildly inconvenienced, it probably needs more whump. However, no participant has to prove whumpiness to the mods. Whatever you write is up to you. Q: What kind of characters can I create for? Anything. Generic āwhumpee,ā OC, PC, NPC, major characters, minor characters, or whatever you want. There are no limits. Q: Does it have to take place in a specific fandom? No, you can create works for your own worlds or for fandoms or for both. You can also create more generic or pan-fandom works. You can do cross-overs or use OCs, whatever you want. Q: Can I create AI-created works? We will not reblog or promote any works we know to be generative AI-created. Q: Is there anything weāre not allowed to write? As long as it contains whump and is based on our prompts, itās fine. Please courtesy tag your works if you post them so people who follow the #whumptober2024 tag can filter according to their preferences. Q: What about sex, minor characters, and potentially disturbing content? You can create whatever works are legal in your country and post them accordingly. Please courtesy tag anything you think might be objectionable if you post to Tumblr so people who follow the #whumptober2024 tag can filter according to their preferences.
POSTING
Q: Where can I post my work? Post where and how you want. You donāt even have to (cross)post it to Tumblr. Just keep in mind if itās not on Tumblr we will not be able to add it to the blog archive. There is an AO3 archive for Whumptober 2024, as well as the parent collection for works completed outside of the event. Q: Can I start posting early? You can, but this is an October event and wouldnāt it be more fun with everyone doing it at the same time? We wonāt be reblogging any work predating October 1st. Q: Can I post late? Yes. For the sake of our hardworking Post Fairies, only a dayās themes will be reblogged to @whumptober-archive each day of October. But you can post whenever. Some of us are still working on and posting Whumptober fics from years ago. Q: Do I have to use your tags? Only on Tumblr and only if you want us to reblog your work on @whumptober-archive. Q: How do I have my works reblogged to the archive? Properly tagged posts will be reblogged to @whumptober-archive. If you want the official archive blog to reblog you, post on Tumblr and tag correctly (see this FAQ link for more info on tagging). Please note not all posts will be reblogged each day. Q: Can we @ you? For questions and comments, of course. Weāll be getting a flood of notifications, so if you really want us to see something send an ask. Q: Can I cross post on other blogs? Yes, multiple platforms and blogs are perfectly acceptable, as long as they allow cross-posting (to us). You can also post different works to different accounts under different names, without posting them everywhere at once. If you post some works under your main and others under an alt blog, thatās fine for completionist purposes. Q: Can I upload/repost my Whumptober content to other social media platforms? Of course! Weāve created an AO3 Collection to archive any fics posted there, which can be found here. The blog is the official archive, so please respect the personal boundaries of any whumpers in your social circle (donāt out anyone as a participant who would prefer not to be outed).
Most importantly, have fun, create, and enjoy all the whump posted this October!
