Easy on the eyes. Hard on the guts

Whumper brushed Whumpee’s hair back, tilted their chin up so they could look them in the eye.

a Whumpee who could have been powerful. could have been amazing.

a whumpee whose abilities could have been beautiful and diverse and stronger than anyone realized

a Whumpee who was instead beaten and destroyed until all they were good for was being a means of destruction for Whumper to wield. a Whumpee who's nothing but a tool for Whumper to use to hurt their enemies as they see fit

“Listen to me. Look at me.” (Especially if they then force either of these.)

“Watch your language”

“It’s in your best interest to obey”

“Be quiet”

“You will not talk to me that way”

“I can make it worse for you if you resist”

“We can do this all day”

“Screaming won’t change anything”

“Stay still and take it”

“Your compliance will make what happens next much easier”

“Do exactly what I fucking say”
