#then i saw some whump prompts on pinterest
Note
Do you have any characters based off people you know?
What/Who influenced you to start writing and why do you write?
Also, love the blurb about jk Rowling <3 fuck terfs
I don't have any characters based off of people I know, they're all completely made up.
As for what influenced me to write, it was @the-modern-typewriter !!!! I would read their prompts on pinterest (i hate that they're on there and stolen but i didn't know anything abt that then) and then sometimes roleplay continuations in the comments. And one day I found someone whose writing I really admired and still admire: @loki-the-mad , aka @the-burning-sea : they had a fic up on ao3 then, a really really really good one (it was a collab with @drxxmingofblue and is still going, and the three of us are besties now). We had a little comment roleplay, and ended up dming. They suggested I started doing more longform roleplay with OCs, and I made my first OC in years (since ofc i did try to write a mostly-whump book when i was 11, before i knew what whump was) just because I was so honored that someone with writing that good might want to write with me. I ended up starting to write more separate from roleplay, and ended up stumbling into the whump community (heroxvillain is the gateway drug sdlkghl)! I actually had begun writing whump before I really knew that was what it was, and Loki was the only one who ever saw my writing. But once I knew there was a community for what I loved so much, I joined a few discords and eventually made a tumblr of my own, and now I'm here! So yeah, shoutout to TMT for connecting me with some really awesome people, the heroxvillain community, the whump community by extension, and the passion to write!!! And shoutout to Loki for encouraging that passion when I was insecure and very shitty at writing!!!!

1: What got you into whump?
Probably watching cartoons as a kid with whump elements. I mentioned this in my first post, but My Little Pony and Ninjago were the two main ones. I didn't actually know there was a word for all of the kidnapping and brainwashing tropes I loved so much until I was browsing Pinterest and I saw something like "Whump prompt 37".
5: Whumper-turned-Whumpee or Whumpee-turned-Whumper?
That's a hard one! But I'm going to go Whumpee turned Whumper. Whumpee takes their trauma out in an unhealthy way and traumatizes others. It's more shocking to the characters around them, especially if they were sweet before the whumpening.
15: How many whump related OCs do you have? How many have you posted?
I have a lot of OCs, but most are for my fantasy-horror-comedy novel series. I plan to post more about that at some point because oh boy do I have a lot to say.
Three of the four main characters, Ronan, Cara, and Tristan have all been whumped in some way. Ronan gets kidnapped and tortured as he's kept hostage, Cara gets possessed by a demoness named Styx and Tristan got manipulated by another demon named Acheron at 11 and it cost him an eye. Juniper is the last member of the quartet, but I can't bring myself to hurt her. Not severely anyways.
I've mentioned Melody in a post before. I plan to post her series at some point. She gets mentally and physically torn apart by a siren named Seren.
So in total, at least five, and I've only posted two.

What the hell is whump? At first I saw it on crossposts from this site to pinterest. I thought it was some kind of smut prompt, then I thought it was a normal tragic angst prompt, now I’m like 90% sure it’s a fetish based off extreme trauma. Please explain it to me.

Whumpmasinjuly Day 8 ~ How did you find the writing community?
geez i basically forgot this eyo let's just get it done before midnight
Mostly because I already explained this on day... 6? I believe... anyways!
I found writing snippets on Pinterest from @the-modern-typewriter (who you should totally check out) I was like... 12 I believe, maybe 13. I had a strict bedtime of- once it's bedtime, you go to bed. So I was chilling and when I saw the writing I was in awe. I was reading them from 9:30-12 or so. Obsessed. Hiding under a blanket with a Chromebook is the best thing ever. So ya! I learned then I was obsessed. I shared some with a close writing friend and when it got to a knife scene she stepped back like haha... no.
Short but sweet. Eventually got tired of the same snippets on Pinterest, found her on tumblr, and found a bunch of whump blogs including the ones I won't tag cause I keep tagging them but y'all know who you are. But I found a lot of others cool people with prompts, and ya then a while later, here I am :)

How and when did you discover the whump community?
Pinterest. I saw some prompts there with the word whump and (since English isn't my first language) I thought it was just a word I had yet to know, I was really happy when I found out it was a whole Thing.
What whump content are you currently craving? and How are you doing today, buddy?
Answered.

For that ask the author game, how’d you get into whump? Who was your first oc (whump or not)? And any fun fact you want to share about yourself?
How’d you get into whump? 
Theoretically, I’ve always been into it. But! More factually, in June I was bip-bopping around on pinterest, looking at writing prompts when I saw one for “Whumpee” and “Caretaker.” My first thought was, what fandom has “whumpee” as a name? 
So I googled it, and figured out what it was. And HOO BOI. It was like the stars aligned. 
I looked up whump boards on pinterest, but I didn’t find enough. BUT I saw that most of them were from tumblr. I’ve had a tumblr account since 2015, but I wasn’t active. So a little revamp and spending literally hours scrolling the #whump tag and here I am! 
Who was your first oc? 
Uhh I know I answered this one different last time, but I’m gonna go with Rilen. He was the main character of a novel I tried to write when I was 16-18 (it’s irredeemably flawed, but it was fun to write the.) Just imagine a re-skined, human Nik. Pretty much same guy. He had some really cool scars, tho - burns from heated chain links that wrapped his arms from his wrists to his shoulders. 
Fun facts you want to share about yourself? 
Oh! I’ve started going to a gymnastics and strength training gym and I absolutely love it. Def some new ideas for stress positions lol. Anyways, I was working on hanging this morning, and it turns out I have incredibly mobile shoulders. Like, both trainers that were there were like, “um, okay so that’s impressive.” 
I was trying to simple hang on the rings, and I fell immediately. The trainers just kinda looked at each other and were like “oh, okay so your shoulders are naturally going to this more advanced position that you are 100% NOT ready for, so let’s work on strength and go back to this one.” (I feel like this implies I have two personal trainers. This is not the case lol, the other just happened to be there.)
I’m not a “physically” or “athletically” inclined person, so having a literal Elle Woods moment of “What? Like it’s hard?” At the gym with fucking professional gymnasts made my freaking month. Maybe even my entire athletic carrier. 
This is so random but I’m so hyped for my flexible shoulders, lol. I’ve told like 7 people already today.

For the ask! 10, 12, 20?
How are you doing today buddy? 🥺🥺🥺
- @cherrywhump
Ooo these are good ones
10. I’ve kiiind of known all my life? Like when I was really little I would always picture super whumpy scenarios like I would tie up my dolls on the backs of pillows and have them be captives or I’d imagine I was a tormented captured mermaid whenever I was taking a bath (which I’m now realizing is super creepy for a small child to do 😅). But I didn’t know there was a name for it until a couple years ago when I saw some whump prompts on Pinterest. I downloaded tumblr to be part of the community and from there I was able to figure out what tropes i like and what my place here is! I did have some doubts for a little bit about whether it’s okay to like whump, but the lovely people on here convinced me that it is :)
12. I... don’t know. Since I’ve liked it as long as I can remember, I’ve never had a big introduction to it that made me think. I do think it’s something to do with the *emotions* in it, since stoic whumpers don’t really do it for me. Like, my favorite tropes involve really intense emotions and often overlap with severe angst, and a whumper who is overjoyed to see their captive in pain or terrified just always gets me so good.
20. I’m having a really good day! Thank you for asking :) We got let out of school early this year and I just got back from the beach. I went thrifting yesterday and got 10 new books and lots of clothes, and today I got to go to confession which always puts me in a good mood (like the nerd I am). How about you 🥺?
