ways of making a whumpee scared of non-con without outright nc or threats
carewhumper vibes. the obvious tws apply
manhandling. throw them onto the bed and straddle their hips, keeping their hands pinned on either side of their head. alternatively, bend them over a table or a bed, keeping them there with a hand tangled in their hair or on the back of their neck.
alternatively, keeping them pressed against your chest or guiding them with fingers tangled in their hair or digging into their hip, just slightly under their waistband
classic shows of submission. tie them up and have them kneel - especially if it's between your whumpers spread legs. give their hair a pet every once in a while if they're good.
pet names: baby, pet, pretty boy, pup, princess. etc.
strip them. personally i prefer keeping my whumpees in their underwear and maybe a carewhumpers tshirt, but even so the act of stripping them is a great place for some physical and psychological whump - ESPECIALLY when the whumpee has only just been kidnapped/captured and does not yet know what to expect
have them undress in front of you for the first time before making them bend over the bed. watch their hands shake and their eyes fill with tears, feel them tense underneath you, frozen with fear. and then you simply just handcuff them or even just walk out of the room, leaving them to question when the n/c will start - only it won't. their fear is all you wanted, after all
gruff/significantly larger or older caretaker bathing a younger whumpee who doesn't feel safe around them yet - whumpee flinching away but too weak to fight as they are gently stripped and placed in the bath, being cleaned /everywhere/ in a way that makes them flush with shame even if there's no intention behind the touches
whumpee being gently but firmly forced into a humiliating position, maybe forced to stand still for an /inspection/ filled with clinical yet invasive touches
using objects w sexual connotations (ball gags, blindfolds, certain whips and types of restraints) in non-sexual situations
this works especially well for a newer whumpee - strip them, blindfold and ball gag them before thing them to a mattress, legs spread. then let them wake up on their own, slowly, watch the fear kick in as they come to their own conclusions about what's going to happen to them
some more explicit stuff below the cut
those dildo gags or maybe an anal plug or vibe - just, you know. keep it in
shoving fingers into whumpees mouth until tears come to their eyes
be handsy with them
taking photos of them in intimate or humiliating posistions
whumper jerking off onto whumpees face where they're tied up and kneeling
buying whumpee lingerie - if they wear it, they might get some food or even first aid

a friendly reminder that surgery scars, even ones that are healed and years old, are felt anytime you stretch that part of your body.
have scars on your chest or back? you feel them when you reach up to turn the light off before bed. scars on your knees? you feel them anytime you bend your leg too far.
it doesn't hurt, at least not in my case, (it feels somewhat like if you put a finger inside your mouth and pull the skin of your cheek out - a gentle pull, but no pain) but i've never seen this detail written into whump or recovery fics and when i do, it always adds so much more realism into the story.
in some cases (and here, i'm speaking solely in relation to scars on your chest, since that's what i know from experience) the healed scars will be so sensitive to external stimuli that even wearing clothes is tortorous. alternatively, the whumpee could loose all sensation in the area. i was given about a 10% possibility that one of those might happen to me, and thankfully I avoided it but they'd both be interesting to see written into whump fics, especially recovery ones.
edit: check rbs and tags for some really interesting additions and discussions.
I got trapped in a car in the middle of nowhere in a hail storm today. Had to pull over on a main highway, couldn't see shit. Fear of breaking glass + no cell service + my dog being terrified. 10/10 whumperless whump / whumpee on-the-run plot point
Hello fellow whump writers and enjoyers I bring to you: The Effed Up Movie Archive, that has weird and obscure movies that are, as the title suggests, effed up.
As expected, major tw for most - if not all - of the movies you'll find on there, but the tagging/categorising system actually seems to be very decent and topics can be avoided quite easily from what I can tell. (I'm also certain you could find porn/fetish stuff on there, but to my knowledge I've already removed the minors from this acc so I'm reccing the website anyway).
Screenshots of the categories have been included below so you can see if this is your thing before clicking on the site. Some movies fit into multiple categories, and you can see all the relevant categories/tws in the description once you click on the movie itself.
Writing Disabled Characters, Part 1: Exisiting Disabilities
Give me whump characters with existing disabilities
Flare ups caused by the stress and pain whumpee has to endure
Whumpee not having access to medications or mobility aids
Whumpers who do have access. They show up to whumpee's cell/room for a "day of fun" (torture) with one of their wrists in a compression brace (how does that change their torture plans? Does whumpee eye the brace with confusion, or maybe envy? Does it give them a little flicker of hope, thinking it's a weakness they could exploit?)
Whumper who spends the day, maybe the whole week, in bed with a migraine or a flare up. All the while neglecting whumpees basic needs, since whumper can barely take care of themselves at the moment (does whumpee think it's a punishment, or a tactic to make them more dependent/less defiant?)
How does the non-disabled one (if there is one) respond?
Does whumpee hide it until the last possible moment, fearing their vulnerabilities will be exploited? (Bonus: whumpee crying out in pain when whumpee lightly presses on a random, visibly fine part of their skin that's actually a fibro pressure point)
Does whumper hide it? Do they confidently use mobility aids (even when they don't need to, just to taunt whumpee with the medical help)?
"Oh my god whumpee, I had the worst migraine last night. Can't think of anything worse" while whumpee is literally in excruciating pain
Carewhumper who's empathetic to whumpees disabilities, and provides them with the right meds. Cue whumpees existential crisis because "maybe it isn't so bad"
Caretaker uses a cane, and at first whumpee thinks they went through something similar, and can't help feeling betrayed when they find out otherwise
(Written by a disabled person who just almost broke down in tears because the tablets I need literally cost $52 just to ship here. On top of that the tablets themselves are $28 for a 10 pack I'll go through in as many days. Hahahhaha kill me)

Writing Disabled Characters, Part 4: Invisible Disabilities
So, firstly a quick disclaimer that everyone experiences disabilities differently, even if they have the same diagnosis, and severity levels can differ drastically.
This guideline is based off my own personal experiences, and I am not a medical professional.
If anyone would like to hear more about how a specific disability might impact their character, I'll answer as best you can or help you find the information elsewhere.
This is still a work in progress, and the rest of the series on writing disabled characters can be found on my page via my pinned post.
It's a bit long, so below the cut :)
Some vocabulary:
Invisible disabilities: It’s exactly what it sounds like. Not all disabled people are visibly disabled. In fact, some people are able to masquerade as fully able-bodied when they’re out of the house for shorts amounts of time. Yes, there are lots of people who use canes, or wheelchairs, or have a visible physical disability. But there’s far more people than you think with invisible disabilities! Examples include POTS, fibromyalgia, ME/CFS, etc.
Chronic illnesses and conditions: You guessed it: it’s an illness that’s chronic. Some chronic illnesses and other conditions are just things that the character has to live with. You can have them complain, or have it occasionally be an issue plot-wise (“I can’t go, I’ve got a migraine right now. Do the mission without me”) but it likely won’t impact the character on a daily basis outside of small habits or accomodations made by the character. For me, my arthritis is a chronic condition, but it’s managed with medication and I have adjusted some aspects of my life accordingly (for example, I know that playing guitar, handwriting, or even the scrolling motion will make the joints in my fingers hurt, and so I’ve figured out how long I can safely and painlessly do each activity and purposely stick within these limits) I don’t consider it to be one of my disabilities. However, for some people, arthritis can fully paralyse that limb or cause horrible pain, and they might classify it as a disability. Generally, once a chronic conditions starts negatively impacting a person’s daily life to such an extent that it starts impairing their ability to socialise, go to work/school, or complete necessary activities, it becomes a disability. This distinction is made by the person themselves and rarely by a doctor - as such, since everyone has different thresholds for pain tolerance and daily hindrances, everyone has a different point at which they will start to consider themselves ‘disabled’. Some never do. Everyone has a different set of vocabulary regarding what they’re comfortable with in relation to their own conditions, and if you have more than one disabled character remember that they will definitely think & talk about their conditions in different ways. Someone who gets migraines frequently might call it an unfortunate fact of life, while others would call it a chronic condition and others still would consider it to be a disability.
Mobility aids: examples include wheelchairs, canes (of which there are multiple types! Do your research based on your character and what you think would benefit them), joint braces, and any number of things. Also: a lot of wheelchair uses are in fact ambulatory to a certain extent!
Flare-ups and baselines/thresholds: A flare is what can happen when a person is pushed past their threshold or undergoes physical or mental stress, and your body reacts by basically ramping up your pain levels x100. Everyone has different limits that have to be passed before a flare-up happens! And sometimes they just happen with no rhyme or reason. A flare can last hours or days or even weeks before the character is returned to their baseline levels of pain or mobility.
Disabilities look different by the day.
A character can be fine and almost entirely able-bodied one day, and bed-ridden (or close to it) the next. This is often triggered by physical or mental stress and doesn’t necessarily correspond to a flare-up, or indicate that one is starting, but it can.
If your character needs to be physically active or in a high-stress situation, let them feel the consequences afterwards with a flare or simply just needing to sleep for 24 hours straight.
A character who wears or uses mobility aids won’t necessarily need them every day. Personally, I have wrist and knee braces and can go weeks without wearing any of them. Then, if I have any physical or mental stressors that push me past my limit, it’s likely I’ll need all 4 braces for 72 hours straight, at minimum. Sometimes, only one or two braces are needed.
Disabilities can impact what clothes people wear, or their speech patterns! For me, I tend to wear shorts and tank-tops whenever possible due to my tendency to faint or throw up if I overheat (shoutout my inability to regulate temperature). If I’m leaving the house, I often hide my leg braces under baggy pants. My speech pattern slurs and slows/tapers off mid sentence due to brain fog - not always, but when I’m tired or mentally exhausted finishing a full sentence is a struggle.
As I said before: some people with invisible disabilities will almost always mobility aids, or cannulas, or other types of support! I’m lucky enough to be mostly able-bodied even though I’m pretty much housebound, so I’m just writing what I know.
Characters who don’t have mobility aids will still unconsciously seek out support: leaning on tables or walls, gripping onto things for support when standing/sitting, etc.
Characters with autoimmune diseases might be entirely fine until they catch a cold, or are exposed to another character who’s sick. At which point the disabled character gets laid out for the better part of a month. This is often because autoimmune diseases are treated with medications that have the side effect of acting as a [often mild, but that’s all it takes] immunosuppressant. If you want to have a character who’s immunocompromised, you could build it into their character by having them wear a mask most of the time, or even being agoraphobic. I’m immunocompromised due to my meds and am the least cautious person you could probably ever meet. And let me tell you when I get a common cold, I’m bed-ridden sick for 2-3 weeks and not back to my baseline levels for another 2-3 weeks after that.
On that note: characters will treat themselves with varying levels of care. There are some who immediately look for solutions and try everything, while others just complain a bit but not make any move to improve their situation. For characters with multiple disabilities, it’s likely that they’ll consider each one quite differently. In my case, I couldn’t give less of a shit about the majority of my conditions and will fully ignore my body’s warning signs in favour of acting like I’m able-bodied. And then there’s two conditions of mine where I take them into account in any decision I make, and that have changed my life in ways I’m not even going to get into right now.
Honestly, the thing that most able-bodied writers get wrong when writing characters with invisible disabilities is that they seem to think we just…constantly bring up our disabilities in conversation. Sure, it comes up when discussing plans/etc or with trusted friends/family members, but it’s not our only personality trait. It’s just a part of our lives!! We make jokes about it, we accomodate for it, and we move on with our days. And on that note: it’s actually really common for characters with disabilities to casually mention something to a newer friend and fully forget that it isn’t a normal thing in most people’s lives. The number of “wait no I’m okay don’t call the hospital” moments I’ve had because I accidentally make a joke or say something like ‘yeah no my pulse is X right now’ and scare the shit out of some poor able-bodied acquaintance-
Your disabled character might need to be accommodated by other characters. Close friends and family won’t even think twice or need to be reminded about it. Accomodations can be small ‘hey can you reach this for me so I don’t have to stand up’ or they can be a big lifestyle adjustment. I’m more than happy to go into detail about the types of accomodations I have, and my other disabled friends have, if you need ideas :)
You’re more likely to see a character rubbing at sore joints, taking painkillers, or using an ice pack than you are to see them complain or bring up their pain/issue to someone else. We’re used to this. We manage.
Our pain levels are skewed!! If your character is being treated for whump/battle wounds by a medic or caretaker, make sure to emphasise how utterly fucked up our pain levels are. You’d think we’d have a higher tolerance, but in fact a lot of us (or me, at least) simultaneously have hypersensitive pain responses and also utterly no clue how to answer the ‘0-10’ pain scale question.
either way, give them a go bag with everything they need to survive, and then take it away from them.
important documents, some clothing, spare cash, maybe a childhood teddy bear or important photo. give them that comfort, of knowing that they can escape at any time, and then for whatever reason take it away from them
maybe they don't have time to grab it, or maybe whumper finds it and takes it away.
leave your character unmoored, untethered to their past with no documents to even prove they're alive
Writing Disabled Characters, Part 3: Sleep-Wake Disorders
continuing my recent tendency to write about disability in whump, i bring to you: whumpees with cfs (chronic fatigue syndrome), because so many people underestimate the severity of this disease.
as always, this series is based in personal experience. my source? dog i AM the source
whumpee's wounds healing more slowly than whumper's past victims
sleeping even when adrenaline is coursing through your veins. you hate it, you can't stop it, you need to be on alert-
alternatively, forcing yourself to be awake, watching the door even as your vision starts to go in and out. you know that if you tried to stand it would feel like each of your limbs were weighted down, like your bones had turned to lead
whumpee who gets sick while in captivity, and develops cfs (an autoimmune disorder) as a result. having to deal with it for the rest of their captivity but also for the rest of their life, a constant reminder of their trauma
cfs that doesn't get better after captivity (and why should it?). whumpee who has to sleep 10-18 hours a day even though every time they close their eyes all they see are memories of their captivity. their dreams are no better.
living weapon whumpee or any type of 'forced labourer' being punished for moving so slowly
whumper who uses sleep deprivation as a form of torture, and whumpee who, horribly, sleeps through the lights and sounds
alternatively, whumper threatens to leave whumpee drugged and unconsious (creepy/intimate whumper, lab/medical whump, you decide) and whumpee hates it but they can't deny that a dreamless sleep would be worth it. and maybe they'll have enough energy after, maybe-
breaking down in tears to caretaker (after or during the whump, your choice) about how they're just so tired, they can't control it, they can't-
whumpee who, despite the cfs, struggles to sleep during captivity, only snatching a few hours a night if they're lucky. having to deal with the confusion, the brain fog, the emotional distress that comes with staying awake when you have cfs
whumper who keeps whumpee awake on purpose, only to be confused when whumpee starts crying so hard they throw up because of how their body won't stop betraying them, of how they feel physically ill anytime they're awake for too long
