Whump Prompt 101
A horned, non-human Whumpee is caught by a dealer who plans to sell them in the town market. Many people stop by to look at the creature, but none show enough interest to actually buy them. One shopper stops by, barely looking at Whumpee before talking to the dealer.
“How much for just the horns?”
Whumpee’s eyes widen and they start to protest, but the dealer silences them.
“It’s the whole creature or nothing. No one’s going to want to buy some average looking thing, especially not after it’s all marred and bloodied.”
“I don’t want the entire thing,” the shopper thinks for a minute, “I will pay full price and half if you remove its horns for me.”
The dealer pauses to consider, then nods in agreement and they shake hands. Tears well in Whumpee’s eyes as the dealer grabs a saw and rag. The rag is stuffed down their mouth to muffle Whumpee’s screaming as the saw starts cutting through their horns. Blood runs down their scalp and neck as the horns snap away, leaving bloody stumps on their skull. They moan quietly as they watch the dealer clean off their severed horns and sell them to the shopper. They leave, content with their purchase, and Whumpee is left at the dealer’s stand, still bleeding and sobbing.
