Caretaker stumbles on a scene, Whumper is standing over an incapacitated Whumpee who’s crumpled on the ground. Caretaker starts to shout at Whumper, their whole body shaking, their anger is barely contained.

“What did you do?” “How could you do this?” “Say something!” “Do you even understand what you’re done?” “Answer me!”

But Whumpee is barely conscious. Dizzy. Drugged. Feverish. Half-aware. All they hear is the angry accusations. Caretaker must be yelling at them, they think this was their fault. Whumpee flinches, curling in on themselves, trying to hide their face.

Whumpee flinches at Caretaker’s words, curling in on themselves, trying to hide their face as they cry, “I’m sorry… please don’t be mad.”

Caretaker doesn’t realize the misunderstanding until it’s too late. “Hey—hey, no… I’m not angry at you.”
