"Whumpee? How are you holding up?" Caretaker asked, poking their head in with concern.

Whumpee just looked at them from a messy bed and breathed a long stuffed-up *snniiiiffffff*

“-Okay okay I hear you... I’ll get the medicine...”

🌡 Fever Prompts 🤒

Some dialogue and fever checking prompts as sickfic/whump inspiration

💬 Dialogue:

“You look like you have a fever”

“You’re running a temperature”

“You do feel a bit warm”

“You seem a bit feverish”

“You’re burning up”

“Oh love, you’re shivering. I think you might have a fever”

“Poor thing, you’re awfully warm”

“Let me check your temperature”

“I’m fetching the thermometer”

“You’re not going, you have a fever”

“Your cheeks are flushed with fever”

“You mind if I feel your forehead?"

"You feel really warm, love."

”I think you’re running a fever”

“You’re definitely running a fever”

🤒 Fever checking:

Palm / back of hand to forehead

Back of fingers to cheek

Hand to side of neck / nape of neck

^^^ Sliding between these during a single check

Cupping their face with one hand, feeling their forehead with the other

Forehead to forehead

Cheek to forehead

Forehead kiss

Back of fingers to underside of chin

Simultaneously feeling for fever and swollen lymph nodes

Feeling the heat radiating off of them when brushing stray hair from their temple / forehead

Feeling their fever when they rest their head on caretaker’s shoulder or chest

Other body parts - arms, tummy, back, etc - also being warm with fever

no thoughts, just a sick whumpee who’s so exhausted that they have to crawl across the floor from point A to point B to get what they need (medicine, an extra blanket, a drink of water) rather than bother caretaker for it and when they get there they’re so spent that they just lay on the ground for like a half hour until the caretaker finds them and puts them back in bed

There’s something about a whumpee just sitting down. Not fainting, necessarily. Maybe they’re just about to faint, and they quietly just kneel on the ground at a time and place that doesn’t make sense. They don’t even have the capacity or willingness to articulate why they need to abruptly stop and sit. Maybe they’re catatonic while the others look at them.

Maybe a caretaker can see the dull, vacant look in their eyes and immediately senses that something is seriously wrong. Maybe the fainting comes just a few moments later.

When Danny enters the Fenton portal for the very first time, he still trips and shocks himself but at the same time damages the inside of the portal enough that it can’t sustain itself past the point of changing Danny’s molecules.

The electricity and damage done to both Danny and the portal isn’t something Danny, Sam, and Tucker can cover up and his parents find out immediately. They’re more concerned about their son then the portal (they have the blueprints for the portal and can rebuild it later but can’t replace their son if something happened to him) and go through a lot of things emotions regarding the existence of ghost human hybrids.

Danny’s new biology could easily be passed as meta human traits. Unfortunately President Lex Luther had just recently passed laws against meta humans. Meaning they can’t risk people find out about Danny’s new powers, at all. The Fentons decide that Danny should live with one of Maddie or Jacks relatives off grid until he can control his new abilities better.

luckily Jacks sister, Martha, and her husband have experience with a super powered child and after their son moved to the city could probably use a hand on their farm. All Jack needed to do was call.

#dp x dc #dp x dc prompt #danny fenton #jack fenton #martha kent #Danny wondering why his parents have so many relatives he never really sees #All the relatives that never forgot when Jack and Maddie hosted Thanksgiving Dinner before Danny or Jazz were born #bonding with your estranged relatives over turkey battling related trauma #Martha hasn’t let Jack visit the farm after he made the tractor sentient back in 87 #Danny discovering Superman is his farm boy turned reporter cousin and can never take any of the metropolis villains seriously anymore #Martha and Jon thinking they have a break from raising a super powered teenage: Danny showing up phased halfway through their front porch #unrelated but I’m not sure how much sense this actually makes (I’ve had a high grade fever all week and know I’ve been out of it)

Give me more shaking whumpees.

Give me whumpees who are shivering so much from their high fever that they can't even hold a bottle of water up to their lips, leaving caretaker to hold it for them like they're bottle feeding a baby animal.

Give me whumpees who've lost so much blood that they're pale and trembling violently, their skin cool to the touch. Their body is desperately trying to keep them warm, but with each new shudder they're just bleeding more and more.

Give me whumpees in shock- whumpees who find out something so emotionally distressing that they can do nothing but shake, eyes fixed on a single point, jolting away from any touch.

Give me more shaking whumpees.

List of symptoms

I hate having whump fantasies that involve some vague fever that doesn’t have consistent symptoms to make it feel real. Here’s a handy list to flesh out the nature of your whumpee’s illness.

Let’s go:

Dizziness/faintness

Congestion

Sneezing

Coughing

Headache

Muscle aches

Joint aches

Cramping

Exhaustion/lethargy

Shivering

Wheezing/trouble breathing

Sore throat (trouble speaking and swallowing)

Sweating (leads to dehydration)

Flushed and/or pale skin

Delirium (delusions, nightmares, lack of filter, inability to regulate emotions, hallucinations, incoherent speech, confusion)

Nausea/vomiting

Abdominal pain (burning, stabbing, soreness)

Chest pain (burning, stabbing, soreness, tightness)

Pain/pressure behind the eyes

Feeling too hot or too cold

Weakness

Blurred vision

Weight loss (loss of appetite)

Rapid heartbeat

Abnormal breathing (rapid, shallow, panting)

Sensory sensitivity (light, sound, touch, smell, taste)

Tell me more……

the weary feverish whumpee aesthetic™

I love it when a whumpee is so weak that they:

are bedridden, much to their discomfort. They long to leave the bed, but cannot because they are too weak, and their legs shake at the thought of taking even a single step.

can't keep their eyes open. Their eyelids flutter but due to tiredness and too much light, they always close again. However, the whumpee has learned to rely on other senses, and is able to recognize the caretaker's voice or touch among a thousand others.

have to always lie down. They try to sit up, perhaps to eat something, but after a few minutes their head starts spinning and their body starts screaming because of the effort. Much to their chagrin, they have to force themselves back down or else they will likely pass out.

are not hungry. Their body can't handle even plain broth, making them queasy and dizzy. So they continue to refuse food, their only source of livelihood, and this obviously worsens their condition.

are too sensitive to touch. Their skin that seems to boil with fever, the bedsheets that rub down their limbs like sandpaper, the hair that sticks to their sweaty forehead, even the simple touch of the caretaker, a touch that is supposed to comfort them, is too much. They start to hate all these little things.

Please, feel free to add more.

I just had a whump scenario pop in my head.

A Whumpee so badly impaired by a high burning temperature that drinking water from a cup is too hard for them. They can’t sit up, they can’t move, it hurts too much. Caretaker is at a loss of what to do. They were sweating too much from the fever. They needed some hydration somehow. And they had no straws on hand.

As they take a damp washcloth and brush whumpee’s sweaty forehead, it hits them. There’s water on this towel. They get a new fresh washcloth and dampen it with fresh cold water from a water bottle and place it to whumpee’s lips. Whumpee is confused and dazed, to which caretaker says

“Try to bite the towel and drink the water from it.”

Whumpee opens their mouth and bites down, and starts suckling the cold wet towel. They almost looked like a baby animal suckling milk from their mother or from a bottle. Caretaker was relieved that whumpee was finally hydrating properly in a way that they could with what little strength they had.

#whump prompt #whump #fever whump #this is my first prompt I ever made up myself #I used to do this as a kid for fun and thought huh #this could be used for a whump scenario...#also the noises it produces are so cute >w<#hopefully nobody did this already!

love a good forehead fever check as much as the next gal but like we’re sleeping on so much fever checking potential here

overly warm hands, palms just beginning to sweat

a rapid pulse throbbing under glistening skin

feeling the warmth radiating off of whumpee through a thin t-shirt

even better, cool hands against the overheated skin of a bare, aching back

grabbing whumpee’s forearm and finding the unnatural heat there

a loved whumpee’s legs resting across caretaker’s lap, limbs hot on their thighs

the top of a head, hair damp and scalp burning when caretaker rests their chin on whumpee’s head

the back of a flushed neck, cupped tenderly in a hand

overheated thighs, maybe gripped through loose sweatpants or mostly bare because whumpee felt too hot for anything but shorts

squeezing a shoulder comfortingly and discovering the warmth there

feel free to add on!

FEVERS. WHUMPEE BEING TOO OUT OF IT, THE UNCONTROLLABLE SHIVERING, HALLUCINATIONS, SWEATING, PALE SKIN, THE FEVER DREAMS, SKIN BEIN TOO SENSITIVE, WET CLOTHING/TOWEL(?) ON FOREHEAD.

JUST FEVERS.

FEVERS.

F E V E R S.

anon you're in for a doozy of a response because I LOVE this trope so much.

first of all--denial. "i'm fine". wearing too many layers in obliviousness or too little in an attempt to lower the temperature. dizzy spells leaving them with an elbow on the nearest support, shaking off the fatigue.

pair that with the forced acceptance--they stay zoned out for a minute too long, saying things that don't make sense, a paleness or flushed look just on the cheekbones and finally someone presses their forearm to the back of their neck and whispers, "you're burning up."

when they try to wait it out. leaning against doorframes, eyes closed, an unsteady breath. pacing to keep moving because if they stop for even a second they won't be able to stay standing. that hitch in the breath as it slowly gets worse until they're forced to go home and rest--or, better yet, collapse into the arms of a caretaker, mumbled apologies into their shoulder as they finally give in.

and finally the intensity of the caretaking--there's not much you can do with a low fever. body aches and constant shivering, muscle spasms and hot or cold flashes, lighter symptoms that develop into that weak moaning, heavy sheens of sweat, inability to get comfortable, so disoriented they can't open their eyes past the spinning of the room. when they're calling out for a loved one. when they shudder out that breathy "...sorry" to the caretaker. when they're forced into an ice bath and the sudden rush of pain leaving them crying out, even as the fever begins to recede.

FEVERS. anon you are so correct.

Imagine a couple or group of friends at an interactive science museum. One person is feeling a bit under the weather but tries their best to put on a brave face to not ruin the day for the other(s).

It works until they walk by a heat camera and the person’s face, chest, arms and hands show up as much warmer than everyone else’s, and that’s how the others discover they have a fever.

hi hi !! if you're still accepting asks from that winter prompt, could i ask for 💙 + 🤍 + 💭?

slowly but surely, I'm working my way through these - thanks for sending this in!!! this is a soft ball of fluff and I hope you like it!

💙 - cold/flu symptoms | 🤍 - forehead kisses | 💭 - soft thoughts/pet names

It’s dark outside, and the patter of freezing rain on the leaves mirrors the crackle of dry wood in the fireplace. Two opposites, yet so similar in the comforting sounds they fill the room with. A’s overwhelmed by the beauty of it as they reenter the living room, where poor B has been camped out on the couch for the past few days.

B coughs, then rubs their throat with a wince. They said it was only a bad cold, but it had stolen their voice, and a 102-degree fever had leeched the energy from their body and made them achy, sniffly, and weak.

“Feeling any better, sweetheart?”

“Not really,” they croak, forcing out the words.

They’re curled up under a knit throw that’s pulled up to their chin and hugged tightly around them, head resting on a fluffy pillow A had brought them earlier in the day. Their eyes are half-open, their breathing slightly muffled from congestion. They cough again and, despite the warm fire, tighten the blanket around their body. They’d been feverish all day, and their chills always got worse at night.

A leans over and gently kisses their forehead, then goes to flick on the humidifier, which will flood the room with steam to help open their lungs. A flicker of lightning flashes and the low echo of thunder rumbles outside, and B flinches at the sound - the approaching storm has them on edge.

“You sure this is only a cold?” A’s back at B’s side, kneeling next to the couch and brushing the hair back from their forehead, confirming the fever they already knew B was spiking.

B shrugs. “Don’t know. Thought it was.” They shift restlessly on the couch, lightly massaging one of their aching shoulders before another shudder sends them back under the blanket. “I’ve got chills all over. My joints are burning, and my eyes hurt, and it feels like someone took sandpaper to my throat.”

“Those...aren’t cold symptoms, B.”

“Fine...so I understated things.” They draw in a rattling breath, rubbing their eye with the corner of the blanket. “I’m suffering either way.”

Another sharp cough wracks them, the rattle coming from deep within their chest, followed by a moan. A’s heart aches - B sounds miserable, and they look just as bad all bundled under the blanket.

A moves to add more logs to the fire. One of these days, B would just admit they were sick when their symptoms started. But for now, they’d just have to patiently wait them out as they burned and ached and coughed and shivered until they couldn’t hide it any longer.

Another rumble of thunder, this one closer, and B jolts, eyes wide as they stare out the darkened window. Their eyes flit to A, then back to the window, then back to A again.

“A, can you come here?” B’s voice is soft and wavering.

“What’s up, love?” As A crosses the room, they can see that B’s eyes are as big as saucers.

“Can you stay next to me?” This close, A can see the dark shadows under B’s eyes, the wild edge that underscores their anxiety which is heightened by their fever. They’re never this clingy otherwise.

“Of course, just let me-“

Another clap of thunder, and B practically launches themselves off the couch and throws their arms around A’s waist, nearly knocking them off balance.

“Shhhh. Hey, you’re alright.” A cups a hand around their overheated head as B leans against A’s stomach, weak arms wrapped around their middle. “There’s nothing out there. We’re safe in here.” In one deft movement, A slides down to sit next to B on the couch. B buries their face in A’s sweater, their knuckles white as they twist their fingers into the soft material. They’re terrified, poor thing.

A adjusts the blanket around their shoulders and hugs them tightly, feeling the small shivers of fever and fear ripple through B’s shoulders as they rub their back in soothing circles. Another crash, this one even closer, and a small sob escapes from B.

“A, don’t go. Please stay. Please.” They’re on the verge of delirious tears, and A can’t help but wonder if someone had once left them to face another storm alone, long ago.

Even in their arms, B can’t stop shaking, so A begins to hum a sweet, simple melody - something from their childhood, words half-forgotten, but the purpose still clear: to ease an anxious mind and calm a trembling soul.

the fire pops and crackles. The thunder crashes and the storm rages, like armies above are tearing the skies apart. A threads B’s hair between their fingers, tracing swirling patterns on their scalp as they continue to hum. they repeat the melody over and over, feeling B begin to relax and release the death grip they have on their sweater.

The thunder rumbles once more, farther away this time, and B just snuggles closer, coughing quietly.

“You doing okay?” B seems to have settled down, but their eyes are still wide and glimmering in the firelight. A feels B’s head nod into their chest.

“I will be.”

In the safe haven of the fire’s glow, B slowly drifts off - and A continues to hold them, even after their breath deepens into an even sleep.

God, I love sickfics that cut between a Whumpee’s current illness, and illnesses they’ve had in the past. Before, being sick was traumatic and lonely. Maybe they were neglected or even ostracized for their illness. In the present day, they don’t know how to handle being loved.
