FEBUWHUMP - DAY EIGHT

“hey, hey, this is not time to sleep”

90% of whump fic: if you want to recover from trauma you Must talk about it to a cop who specializes in pseudoscience and can strip you of your rights and have you thrown in medical prison without trial if they think you're too difficult or crazy or you don't want to take the meds they might try to force on you. The only reason someone might not want to do this is if you're in denial or repressed or not willing to get better. This is the only way to Heal

Need to start writing fanfic again so I can write antipsych whump fic. Let's get another perspective in here

Hate to see whump ppl being judgy over other perverts. And before you say "Oh we're not perverts whump isn't A SEX THING" yes, yes it is, don't lie, I know it's not only a sex thing but it is also a sex thing, I see the way you talk about blood and bruises. Whumpers will be like "me when i have to hide my interests or else people will think I'm a freak 🤣" and then turn around and go WHY would someone write about rape or incest or necro or insert taboo here, these are SICK FREAKS that CAN'T BE TRUSTED. Oh so now the bitch who's obsessed with watching characters getting tied up and beaten and tortured and bleeding and crying and passing out is gonna preach to us. Ok 🙄

Okay since the post about death in whump is going around quite a lot and I'm seeing different statements in the comments, I am curious as to how the percentages balance out

For me personally, definition wise, the aftermath of a whump scene is not relevant to the whump part (the injury, or getting sick) before it. That's because I define whump as solely the hurt part in hurt/comfort. Even though I pretty much only consume whump content with a good ending, and vastly prefer it

I know that there's absolutely something to be said about how death of a character can be whump material for someone else, but in this case I'm just solely talking about the character the scene is about.

This poll also assumes that whatever happens before the death is an injury or illness of some kind, and the scene is not solely character dying.

Share around for a bigger reach!

nothinggg better than torturing an emotionally repressed character until every single trauma they've ever refused to process starts spilling uncontrollably out of the cracks. like a matryoshka doll situation of repressed trauma and baby you better believe i'm going in there with a hammer

we should call it this again

I see a man (fictional), I am generally like "okay". I see the same man (fictional) being put in a situation, covered in dirt and blood, perhaps soaking wet, actively sobbing and shaking like a chihuahua, and I am saying "yay" and "yippee" and things of this nature

That one tweet that’s like “oh that’s gore… that’s gore of my comfort character” but in the absolutely most positive sense u can imagine, with rainbows and dolphins in the sky etc.

Whumpee, limp, beaten, and half conscious bound up on the hard floor. Whumper kneeling down in front of them and grabbing whumpee's chin, pulling their face up to look at them without resistance as whumpee's head lolls and their eyes fail to fully focus.

literally me every single night

That scenario when a character is badly hurt or sick, either way they're extremely out of it and whoever is taking care of them isn't someone they would expect to take care of them, and when they blearily look up at their caretaker they mumble something along the lines of "am I dying? You're never this nice to me"

I just think that we as a society need to grapple w the fact that like 80% of whump fandom is centered around cops. Or military or goverment agents. Like I get it I have plenty of cop whump on my blog I've written fanfic about cop characters and procedurals reliably have whump in them but uhh it still...sucks??? that so much of whump spaces involve woobifying cops. Can we branch out a little here

being aromantic and into whump is like. shoutout to whump for being a great opportunity to engage with stories about intimacy and vulnerability and powerful emotion and physical interactions with other people and intense relationships that are not presumptively based in romance. what would i do without you.
