Let hurt the blorbos

If you dislocate a shoulder joint they'll be unable to move their arm, and in immense pain. If a whumper is dislocating joints on purpose, they'll most likely go for this one. It's an easy joint to pop out, and leaves whumpee in pain and vulnerable even after it's put back in.

Hip dislocations are less practical, because it takes a lot of force to get the ball out of the socket, and it will cause lots of complications.

If a whumper is dislocating joints on purpose they might be more likely to go for the kneecap, which dislocates more easily and can be put back with little complication, while still leaving whumpee in pain and without the ability to walk.

what’s the situation? have they just gotten rescued? are they dying? touch starved? or maybe just tired, and want a safe place to rest? or all of the above?

is it a leap? are they desperately crawling into caretaker’s embrace, trying to get as close as possible? or is it cautious, like they’re scared caretaker will say no? or is it arduous— maybe they’re weak from fatigue or injuries or blood loss, and it takes a lot of effort for them to make the movements.

After the whump, they can't just recover, no, they have things to do. People who need them. Duties that no one else will do.

There's no time for recovery. They need to lead. They need to keep going.

CW: Nonhuman whumper/whumpee, conditioning, death mention, flashback

Whumper and Whumpee are different species and Whumper thinks they are helping Whumpee when really they are hurting/traumatising/suffocating them

Hidden injury/scar, Caretaker claps Whumpee on the back only for Whumpee to double over at the pain of new lashes being struck

Caretaker unknowingly or accidentally says a trigger word and suddenly Whumpee is a shaking mess on the floor and Caretaker has to try and cut through the flashback

Or Caretaker says a word that used to be a conditioned command and Whumpee's knees have hit the floor before they even realise what they heard

Whumper sets a trap for someone else, but Whumpee walks into it. Now Whumper has to decide what to do with this injured but unintended victim

Whumpee has Rejection Sensitivity Disorder so even a slight change of tone from Caretaker has them panicking

A fight gets out of hand, and suddenly Whumpee is looking up how to hide a body

That one scene in Inside Man where a simple misunderstanding snowballs up and up

Literal accidents - paper cuts, falling down the stairs, broken glass etcetera

Whumpee held down on the ground by Whumper who's threatening them with a knife.

"Oh, you're going to be fun."

Whumpee frowns as they struggle away from the blade and grip on them.

"You sound like a pervert," they shoot back at them. Not the best backtalk but better than nothing.

Whumper's amusement comes through clearly in their tone. "Maybe I am."

Gritting their teeth, Whumpee's frown deepens. "I've been raped before. You wouldn't be the first. You're not special." Anything to keep a semblance of control to stem the sickness in their stomach.

Then cold dread falls over them at Whumper's next words:

"You may eat." as in Come on, be grateful that I'm allowing you even this and lick that plate clean, whumpee.

Why?

Are they unleashing all of their pent-up rage onto Whumpee because the latter is too weak to fight back compared to the others?

Does Whumper have some kind of personal vendatta against Whumpee?

and now whumpee has made a huge, huge mistake. it warrants weeks— maybe months, if owner decides to prolong their misery— of unending pain. they'll be beaten, humiliated, starved within an inch of their worthless life.
