A Whumper at Heart

your character goes limp mid-hug, much to your caretaker's shock. the options:

they've been hiding an injury that finally caught up with them. the dreaded adrenaline crash sapping all their strength

or they are sick, slightly shivering, and no longer in the position to support their own weight. unusually pale, they may have the courtesy of warning for this one ("I'm not feeling too good...")

or they're hit with a tranq dart; caretaker hears a whistle, a hiss, then their friend's eyes roll back + they go down

or they are simply so exhausted that they give into the safety of a warm, friendly hug, unaware of the caretaker calling out their name in concern

Anyone else a big fan of the after-adrenaline shakes where a character starts to process what they just went through and they b r e a k and it's delicious...
