Whumpee who's subjected to intolerable amounts of pain for the sake of "knowledge".

Whumpee whose skin is comparable to stone

Whumper has them strapped to a chair with currents flowing through them. They're left screaming and begging for hours on end as Whumper hums around, poking and prodding at them while taking notes, occasionally changing the setting or messing with another body part.

Whumper who starts a GoFund me for Whumpee, showing everyone how they've been beaten and taken advantage of, only to use the money to continue the experiments.

Whumpee who was first taken for their blood but is now having chunks of their skin ripped out to be studied.

Whumpee who pleads and thrashes as needles are shoved into them, their constant moving causing the needle to slip and pop a vein.

Whumper shoving a spider gag into Whumpees mouth and forcing pills down their throat. An especially sadistic Whumper maybe forcing a bug onto their tongue, watching with glee as Whumpee's eyes fill with tears and they gag, the insect skittering around.

__________________________________________________________

Whumper who has gotten all the information they needed but still leeches money off of Whumpee by displaying them at high end events.

Whumpee being constantly drugged.

Whumpee who's only conscious when they're hanging from the ceiling, ropes restraining all their limbs and cameras flashing in their face.

Hissing and glaring as Whumper allows viewers to explore Whumpees body, hands tugging at their tail, wrapping around their horns, plucking feathers, probing at an extra mouth, all for a price of course.

People slowly lose interest in JUST seeing Whumpee, and so Whumper sells their body.

Whumpee who's unrecognizable, gaunt and pale, breaking down on the floor begging Whumper to make them look "Normal".

Whumper who debates it for a while but eventually agrees, selling the cut off parts to the highest bidder.

They no longer have any use for Whumpee.

"Tell me you love me."

Although the whumpee wants to obey, after last night's abuse the words take a little longer to form. Whumper turns off the car's headlights so that ahead of them is only darkness.

"Say it."

The car speeds up. There is only a metre or less of visibility up front.

"(whumper), please-"

Whumper clenches their teeth, "I won't let anyone else have you."

"I love you," whumpee finally chokes out, flinching at every bend of the road. The car is going far over the speed limit. If anyone else rolled up ahead, they wouldn't see it in time.

"You aren't being genuine now."

"Please, slow down," whumpee raises their voice as much as they dare, "I mean it. I really do."

The hands on the wheel tighten as the car swerves around yet another perilous bend.

"(whumper), I love you," whumpee says over and over like a prayer. They don't, not really, but they are ready to say anything to not end up a mess of broken limbs when the car eventually crashes. They know whumper would do it, too - that was the worst part.

Finally, whumper glances over at whumpee, just for a second. Their face softens.

"I love you too."

The car begins to slow down gradually, gently, until finally they are at a speed that lets whumpee relax ever so slightly. Now, whumper can afford to look at whumpee longer. They shoot whumpee a fond look.

A loving one.

"Thank you," whumpee stammers out. Now, they have to do anything to stop whumper from snapping again. It was a thin treshold easily crossed.

They'll travel the world together, Vivruh has to be someone Eldwin can depend on… Rewards and punishments… media scrutiny… speculation that they might be in a relationship… Eldwin's previously perfect, record breaking performances getting worse and worse… and of course, what figure skating AU would be complete without a breakdown on the ice :D In true Eldwin fashion, he pushes people away, he lashes out, probably some scandal about him getting drunk (usually there'd be drugs too, but. I don't want him to actually get disqualified… That might be what holds him back, because he doesn't want to lose his skating) and he's someone no one likes off the ice, but god his skating is beautiful…

Desme as a top skater too, his rival, both of them always end up on the podium until Eldwin starts slipping. Desme being the one to suspect that something is horribly wrong, and they suspect Vivruh might be an abusive coach but they have no idea to what extent…

And did I mention media scrutiny. And public gossip. That has to happen.

Maybe Clyde for some reason funded Eldwin's lessons. Because Eldwin's family couldn't afford it themselves. But that begs the question why would Clyde do that, what's he getting from it, and what's Eldwin's relationship with his family now?
