"remember when you didn't make eye contact with me when I walked in the room this morning? Why isn't that on here?"

Whumpee apologizes and gets beaten twice as hard. Eventually they end up in a perpetual state of analyzing their own behavior for mistakes.

Even worse, sometimes Whumper gets mad at them for things they didn't even do. If Whumpee insists it never happened they'll get punished both for the thing and for "lying".

Whumpee gets so paranoid that they end up writing things down that Whumper probably would never know otherwise, giving Whumper so many more reasons to punish them.

One day Whumper gets mad at Whumpee because Whumpee didn't put "having angry thoughts about Whumper" on the list. Whumper convinces Whumpee they know what they are thinking and that there is no point in trying to hide it.

Whumpee ends up conditioned to write down the "bad" thoughts they have, to be punished for them. They now aren't only desperately analyzing everything they do, but also everything they think. Whumper now officially has control over Whumpee in their own head.

Medic and whumpee captured together, medic desperately trying to walk Whumpee through first aid before they pass out from blood loss, unable to get to them.

Leader whumpee getting beat to shit in clear view of their team and none of them can help.

Rivals/enemies captured together, watching the other get hurt and realizing in the worst way possible that some part of them cares for the other.

Holding hands through the bars.

Whumper was a member of a team and ended up getting kidnapped and brutally tortured until they gave up information about the rest of their teammates. It takes a long time and a lot of torture, but they eventually give up the information and are released.

When they return to their base, it's already been attacked, many of their teammates injured or killed. When Leader/Whumpee sees Whumper, they blame them entirely for everything that happened, refusing to listen when Whumper tries to explain themselves.

Furious, Whumper decides to show Whumpee exactly what they went through. They kidnap Whumpee in disguise and put them through every torture method that they themselves had to endure, demanding the same information that Whumper eventually gave up.

Hero: “I realize that.”

Villain: “Doesn’t that trouble you?”

Hero: “Sure there is. I’m stopping me.”

Villain: “But in your heart you crave—”

Hero: “Sometimes when I’m in a crowded building I get the sudden urge to just boop a stranger right on the nose. But I don’t do it, because that would be super rude and weird. Does having that compulsion in the first place make me just as much of a weirdo as if I had acted on it? Maybe it does in your eyes, but to the would-be boopee, it makes all the difference in the world.”

Villain: “We’re not talking about booping noses, we’re talking about killing peop—”

Hero: “That’s the difference, isn’t it? Between you and I. One tiny difference. That’s all it takes. That’s the line between good and evil.”

Villain: “What?”

Hero: “You saw your own darkness and let it destroy you. You surrendered to it the moment you realized it was there. You threw open the door for it and welcomed it inside and let it rob you of your humanity without even a word of protest because you just couldn’t imagine it was something you could fight.”

Villain: “And you, oh-so-sanctimonious one?”

Hero: “I said ‘no thanks’. That’s it. That’s the difference.”

Villain: “Did you just—did you just—”

Oh, it's a gunshot? make them take the bullet out with their bare hands and fingers.( i dont even know if that's possible but like let them try anyway)

Is it a wound that needs to be stiched? make the stiches so uneven that the scar would be 10 times uglier than it would have been. if it was treated better.

an infection? instead of trying to heal it have them just cut it off.

Bandage the wounds messy and do not wipe the big blood stain. Do not change the bandage when it's needed. Do not even use the right material to bandage it in the first place.

Whumper setting whumpees bones incorrectly

no pain medicine for whumpee!

Whenever whumpee says that something hurts, whumper holds up a scalpel and says “we’ll have to amputate!” They aren’t joking

and think of the caretakering! after whumpee’s poor treatment, they need some actual medical care.

of course whumpee is terrified. what caretaker needs to do seems a lot like what whumper would do.

maybe caretaker has to redo some of whumper’s work. I’m sure that won’t remind them of anything at all.

and imagine whumpee’s surprise, to properly done medical care. Caretaker taking time to make sure that the wound doesn’t scar, that whumpee gets pain meds and physical therapy.

caretaker explaining exactly what they’re doing to whumpee, and how it will help.

just whumpee experiencing care and concern for their wellbeing after it was ignored and dismissed
