I'm not the most qualified person to be writing this but after listening to a quick youtube compilation of Michael's dialogue I decided to give it a go.

Jon sat behind, or rather drowned in, a sea of papers and files, all relating to a case he couldn’t quite remember at the moment. His mind was foggy and any sense of urgency he had had was chased away by the chills wracking his weak frame. He shouldn’t have come in today. Jon wasn’t one to miss a day of work but after hours of no progress even he was willing to admit there was no point to this charade. The words on the pages in front of him swam and every time he turned on his recorder to listen to his statements he found himself nodding off. 

A strange feeling came over him. A sneeze? No. Something else. He heard the creaking of a door and grit his teeth, preparing to tell whoever it was that he was too busy to help them. But the sound didn’t come from the doorway, it came from the corner of the room beside his bookshelf.

“Oh no,” Jon muttered, bringing his bleary eyes into focus. 

“Well, hello, Archivist, I do hope I’m not interrupting,” Micheal said, his voice turning up on every word as if this was the most amusing thing to him.

“No. Absolutely not. If you want to speak to me you can make one of your little doors outside my office and knock first like everyone else.” Jon barked. The fever was making him delirious. Part of him wondered if he was only hallucinating Michael’s sudden appearance but the stunned look on the man’s face was too out of character to be fake.

“I’m afraid that’s not how it works. Now, if you would-”

Whatever quip Michael was about to say died on his lips as the sound of ragged, harsh coughing filled the room. He waited impatiently for Jon to stop before speaking again. Michael sighed an echoing sigh, his usual laughter notably absent.

“As I was saying, Archivist-”

Jon drew in a wheezing breath before descending into coughs again. By the time he caught his breath this time he’d almost forgotten about the intruder in his office. 

Michael let his door slide closed and stepped further into the room. “Oh poor archivist, you are always suffering in some way or another aren’t you? And it takes so little too. Of all the evils lurking in the world you are plagued by what, a cold?” He laughed to himself.

“On shut up,” Jon said, putting his hands down flat on his desk to rise to his feet. It was a slow and labored feat and even then he wavered sharply, leaning on the desk for support. “Get out. You’re not welcome here.” Jon all but growled, or maybe that was the phlegm in his throat, it was impossible to tell.

“Fine, fine,” Michael held up his hands in mock surrender. His mouth twitched into a smile, “I guess I’ll just show myself out then.”

“Please do.” Jon said, gesturing vaguely to the solid wall in front of them. He fell back into his chair heavily, waiting for the sound of Michael’s door closing behind him. When it didn’t come he looked up to see Michael standing beside an unfamiliar door, open to a very familiar room. His couch, old and worn as it was, greeted him like an old friend. His bones ached in anticipation.

“Go on, Archivist, you know you want to. I made this door just for you.”

Jon blinked, “I’m not falling for that. Hurry up and leave already.” He felt his strength dwindling. Sitting alone at his desk had been exhausting enough, arguing with Michael sapped up what little energy he had left.

“Just a few steps and you’ll be free.” Michael taunted. His word choice was particularly ironic, as if any door of his could lead to anything but a trap. 

Footsteps echoed down the hallway approaching his office. One of his coworkers was on their way to bother him right at that very moment.

“Better hurry, Archivist. You don’t want anyone seeing you like this do you? You should really just go home,” The words dissolved into a faint distorted laugh. Now he was just kicking him when he’s down. 

Jon’s vision blurred and when he made no move to get up he felt a strong, cold hand slide over his arm. The way it wrapped once, no, twice, around his bone-thin arm sent a chill down his spine but he didn’t have it in him to protest. He was falling face first into the comfort of his couch before he could even process what was happening around him. The sound of the footsteps disappeared and he felt himself relaxing for the first time that day. Finally he was alone. Michael vanished as quickly as he had come and Jon still wasn’t sure if he’d ever been there at all.

“Jon? I’m looking for-” Martin swung open the door to Jon’s office, falling silent as he found the room completely empty. “Jon?” His coat was still draped over the back of his chair. Faint steam rose out of a half empty mug of herbal tea. “I could have sworn he was just here…” He mumbled in confusion.

Ok this could fit a few bingo squares like middle of the work day or something, but honestly I just had a Thought and I really wanna see it.

What about Micheal showing up to bother Jon, some kinda like. Relatively harmless intentions. Finds him Not Doing Good, and just. Pulls him through a door and chucks him back out on his couch. But doesn’t tell anyone cause Yk. Why would he. And someone, maybe Martin, comes by Jon’s office and is like. Uhhhhhh where tf is Jon? He just disappeared? No one saw him leave his office what?

And everyone kinda panics for a bit until they find him and it’s like no he’s fine the distortion just found him at work when he should Not have been and took matters into its own very large and sharp hands

hello there!! i very, VERY much want to write this prompt, but tbh, i've never written michael before and don't think i could capture his voice without relistening to the podcast, which i really don't want to do atm. it's a very good prompt that i will 100% reblog if someone picks it up! it's just maybe not for me. thank you so much for sending it in though and if you have any others you'd like to see, i'm certainly happy to try to write them!! <3

@whumpschild I distinctly remember that I was haha

do you ever think about how sometimes it just... takes one random message? and suddenly you find yourself with a best friend or in constant conversation with someone who lives on the other side of the world but is just as much of a freak as you are or maybe you find yourself in love with someone without a last name but with so much kindness and affection in their words and presence. crazy how life and love and friendship just happen

When you decide one night to drunk Tumblr message your only follower to offer them all your extra unfinished stories and then become best friends for over 3 years yep. @whumpschild

If you want to see this exact trope in media I suggest Never Say Never (2019) episodes 32-35. It's a Chinese drama, I have a whump list for it on my blog and you can probably find the show online for free.

whumpees with addictions..

maybe whumper gets whumpee addicted to any sort of drug. whumpee feels trapped, like they can't leave whumper. maybe if they're bad, whumpee doesn't get their fix, and has to deal with withdrawal, and is just *desperate* to feel normal again.

if whumpee is rescued, especially when caretaker doesn't know about the drugs or even what type---it takes a bit to realize this isn't just illness, but withdrawal. maybe they have to scramble to find the right drug before whumpee's body gives up.

whumpee is miserable---sweating, shaking, nauseous. they give up on trying to eat because they can't keep anything down. they can't sleep.

caretaker doesn't know what to do---even if the find the drug in time, they have to deal with the new reality of whumpee as an addict, they have to get enough of it to try and wean whumpee off of it.

I was scrolling through tumblr and came across an amazing whumpy gif set! It was maybe 6 gifs, whoever made it did a great job on the coloring. I made a note of the show, actor, and episode number to look for it later. But it wasn't in my likes because I MADE THE WHOLE THING UP in a dream. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️
