Whump Vibes

preemptively getting defensive, expecting caretaker to be angry at them, only to get stunlocked by insistence that they go back to bed and rest

trying to brush care off with awkward jokes, insisting that it's not that bad, because they're not used to all the attention and they have no idea how to react

just freezing in quiet confusion while caretaker changes their cold compress, checks their temperature, goes through the usual routine that is completely foreign for whumpee

It also seems like it will go off, sound and vibration, whenever someone posts. Trump is awake at 2 AM. You will not be able to shut off your phone or stop the noise until you handle this. It will also drain your battery by being a surprise 2 AM noisemaker.

Don't put it on your phone. It's actually stealing less data than I expected (I mean, yes, OBVIOUSLY it's tracking your location and sending that to any cop who's bored, but it isn't taking any credit card info, so hey, that's nice), but it still can access and fuck up anything saved on your phone, record any unlocking method you use including fingerprint and face, and seems to want to do so to force you to suddenly have an explosion of noise.

Again: this may extend to dropping a call for an ambulance.

Based on this article and other discussions with tech people, the app:

Provides your location, every 4.5 and 9.5 minutes, to Trump and company;

Can copy, modify, or delete information on your phone;

Can alter webpages you visit through them;

Has multiple security flaws;

Is creating a personal profile on users;

Can, in fact, interrupt phone calls, no definite answer on 911 but very likely;

Is showing signs of being spyware in unstated ways.

No pain medication. No anesthesia. No speciality tools. No antibiotics.

Sewing up a wound with a needle and fishing line, praying against fate that infection doesn’t set in.

Splinting a sprain with a stripped up shirt wrapped around a semi-straight branch.

Having a bone set and having to stay extremely still so as to not have the bones slip back apart.

Picking out fractured bone or bullet fragments with nothing but bloody fingers and hope.

Splashing alcohol into an already festering wound, hoping it will buy just a little more time before sepsis hits.

Belts wound around an artery so tight it hurts more than the bleeding injury itself.

Caretaker finding sick Whumpee in the middle of the night, curled up on the bathroom floor...

Feverish. And. Incoherent. Whumpee. Who. Mumbles. Complete. Nonsense. In. Their. Sleep. (This one is the one)

Whumpee being carried while their head rests on Caretaker's chest and their arm slumps down at their side.

Silent tears while being medically treated. They could be tears of relief/pain/fear... you choose.

Whumpee sobbing like a child in Caretaker's warm arms after an awful nightmare...

...and Caretaker staying with them until they fall back asleep or, even better, bringing them to their own bed so Whumpee won't be scared of being alone.

Days of silence until they finally break and tell everything to Caretaker.

"you're burning up..."

"...Caretaker?" "I'm right here"

"it's okay, it's okay, I've got you"

"you didn't do anything wrong"

"do you think you can keep some soup down?"

"please... stay" "of course"

"are you sure you're ok? You look like you're gonna pass out or puke... Or both"

Whumpees with aching eyes, too tired to keep open yet too sore to close, even the lightest pressure of their eyelids too much

Whumpee who's too weak and dizzy to do anything at all but lie in bed completely still, sweating through their blankets only to immediately start shivering after clumsily throwing them off

Whumpees with dry mouths, dry lips

The corners of their room are more shadowy than they should be, and they're too exhausted to bother to get up and see what's in there. The Hat Man will have to just wait his turn.

Strong enough to get out of bed but being so, so out of it. Caretaker finding them standing swaying in a doorway, pale as death, clearly seeing something that isn't there

Everything seems to be flickering. The air buzzes. Their skin prickles.

Getting to sleep is hard, because their mind is restless and racing. Once they're asleep though, they're down for the count
