can you perhaps give me a few prompts over someone w light/sun magic and how they could hurt themselves or others on accident?
Sure! Here are a few:
Hello! Your blog is amazing, thanks for it! Can you imagine some whump prompts for dark academia?
I'm not very familiar with the dark academia aesthetic but I can try!
Woke up after three hours of sleep absolutely freezing despite having a heap of winter blankets. Realized my blood sugar was low, tried to sit up and nearly passed out. I had a protein bar within reach but I was shaking so hard that I could barely get it open. Spent most of the day feeling weak and sick in bed with a headache
Anyway, imagine your whumpee
Is it possible for a person to develop chronic pain due to stress caused by complex ptsd and depression?
Also does a person have chronic pain if they have headaches everyday, joint pain, body aches that are constant at least for more than 2 years?
(assuming they are not sick, none of these symptoms are from a virus)
Yes, pain is considered chronic when it lingers longer than twelve weeks despite medication or treatment -- and yes, PTSD can produce or intensify pain. Hyperarousal, a common PTSD symptom, can cause prolonged muscle tension, which can produce chronic pain.
Hi~ so from what I read, migraines can last from a few hours to nearly 3 days, right? My question is, during this period (esp towards the longer end of it), is the pain constant or does it come and go? And does the person remember what happened during this time or is it all hazy? Oh, and last question, can a person handle a migraine attack alone or would it be better to have someone near? Thank you in advance!
Any ideas on how to use zero gravity in whump?
Hi! First of all, I adore your blog, it’s helped me with a ton of my writing.
So, I have a character who gets frequent migraines. What would be the effects if they were to go into battle with a migraine? Would the effects be similar to a fever, worse? Could they have any other medical repercussions? It takes place in a sci-fi world, so there would be lasers instead of gunshots if that helps.
I’ve never had a migraine (thankfully) and I’m doing my best to portray it in a realistic way. Thank you!
I don’t think they would be capable of much in battle. Migraines can come with distorted, flashing vision and extreme light/noise sensitivity, so they would probably be too disoriented to put up any fight. (On the bright side, that opens an opportunity for them to be easily injured!) Other symptoms can include dizziness, nausea/vomiting, congestion, irritability and tenderness in the scalp.
What would be some side effects of someone with psychic powers who overexerts themselves?
I’d imagine exhaustion, headaches, light and noise sensitivity, sensory overload, and possibly the classic nosebleeds would be good possibilities!
do you put heat or ice on a hadache
Either could help in different ways; people have their personal preferences. Ice could numb or dull the pain and heat could relax tense muscles. If one doesn't seem like it's helping, try the other.
I had something to ask involving this. If someone were to have a pretty nasty head injury (like in my case caused by being beaten by armed security guards’ batons and rifle butts and getting a concussion) as well as a broken nose would this increase the likelihood of stress nosebleeds?? Totally not asking for story reasons… 👀
Headaches that are caused by stress can increase the likelihood of nosebleeds, and given that your character's got a concussion I'd say that would help it along!
hope you feel better soon! Sleepless headaches really are the worst 💖
Yeah, it surprised me how bad it got! I’m still getting dizzy spells but after going to bed early the headache has eased up now today.
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
Sleep deprivation headaches are no joke
Fine and good for your whumpees, sure
But make sure you get some rest
Character A snaps at Character B to shut up and stop crying already. They’ve been at it for ages and A is getting a headache from all of their noise.

Whumpee has terrible sinuses and lives in the Midwest so the constantly changing weather leaves them with horrible sinus headaches all the time.
(It’s me I’m Whumpee 😅)
Aw man, I’m sorry to hear that!
Anyone else get migraines triggered by crying? Cause trust me, that would be a nice double-dose of suffering for your whumpee 🙃
Caretaker gently massaging Whumpee’s scalp to soothe their awful headache
Scented candles give Whumpee awful headaches. They’re having dinner someone important (a potential boss? their S/O’s family?) and they really want to make a good impression but unfortunately there are quite a few strong candles lit. Whumpee doesn’t want to mention their discomfort for fear of displeasing them, but the headache and dizziness are making them miserable.
