Tumblr media Tumblr media
Welcome to Whumptober 2023 — the sixth year running!
To those of you who participated last year, welcome back! To everyone joining this year, welcome!
Please make sure to read the Event Info carefully, as most of your questions will be answered there already. For everything else, you are welcome to come to our ask box or ask questions in our Discord server here.
This year’s AO3 Collection can be found here.
And this years playlist can be found here.
There are 139 prompt options in total this year - this is including the alternatives list! A special thanks goes out to those who took part in our trope vote back in July. From the 1526 responses to our list of 223 tropes, we looked through the popularity results, as well as your honourable mentions, and were able to produce this years prompts list. Stay tuned, as we will be posting some of the results at a later date!
We’re very excited to see the community come together once more and be a wild, chaotic bunch of creators and consumers of whump. Go wild with the prompts, and support your fellow creators - we wish you all the fun!
Best of luck and happy whumping,
Mods Vanne, Yenn, Kitty and Surro

Event Info & Rules
~ Please read our extensive event info posts before sending us an ask - A link can be found at the top of this post. ~
WHUMPTOBER is a month-long, prompt-based creation challenge (think: Inktober, but whumpier). There are 31 official themes this year - one for each day of the month - which can be used, skipped, or combined in any way you’d like. The 'theme' of each day is the line of lyrics.
The prompts are merely to serve as inspiration without being taken literally (e.g. you don’t have to include the exact wording of prompts into your work). Feel free to run rampant on interpretation. For example, if the prompt is "flame", you could create something with reference to a candle/campfire, your character could have suffered a burn, or the flame could be related to the 'spark' of a relationship. It's truly up to you!
In total, there are 4 prompts for each day: there's lyrics, an object, a trope and a line of dialogue to choose from.  We want to give everyone as much creative freedom as possible, as well as increase event accessibility for folks with triggers and squicks.
Creators can PRODUCE work in any media they choose, including but not limited to: writing, visual artwork, photo/video/audio edits, paper crafts and elaborate recommendation lists (not just a list of links). Creators can PARTICIPATE as much or as little as they want (i.e. you don’t have to do ALL the prompts if you don’t want to) and prompts can be used in any order. They are also free to use even after the event ends.
When uploading Whumptober content to your blog, be sure to tag the with:
#whumptober2023 …..(the event tag)
#no.1, #no.2, #no.3, …..(day number)
#lyric, #bruises, #stabbing,  …..(the theme or specific prompt you chose)
#fandom or #OC, … (ironman, originalcontent, oc …)
#medium …..(gifs, fic, podcast, art, etc.)
#teeth, #gore tw, #etc …..(trigger warnings & any additional tags. Add "tw" AFTER the trigger/content warning. )
#nsfwhump …..(only for nsfw content)
#your own tags go here
PLEASE BE DILIGENT WITH YOUR TAGGING. Only properly tagged posts are considered for archiving on the official @whumptober-archive blog. They must be tagged in the order above. An elaborate post about our tagging system can be found [here]
Unfortunately, due to the sheer number of participants in recent years, we cannot guarantee your work will be archived. A random selection of properly tagged posts from all genres will be reblogged each day.
Whumpers who produce content for 31 total theme days are considered event completionists and will be tagged in a masterpost at the end of the month. A form will be published at the beginning of November asking you to tell us if you completed the event. You do not need to post anything you have created, we rely on trust and we will not check this.
Questions not addressed in one of our many event info posts can be directed to this blog. We will not answer any questions that have been answered in the FAQs or rules already.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How does this year’s prompt list work? What do I have to choose?
You can create something based on:
The overall theme/lyric of the day
Prompt 1, 2 or 3
One or several of the alternative prompts
A combination of the above
Q. Is [specific anything] allowed?
When in doubt: JUST DO IT!
Q. Do I have to do all 31 days?
Participate as much or little as you like! Just be sure to tag your posts properly (ex. #no.7, #radio silence). If you create works for 31 total theme days you will become a completionist. But apart from that, there are no repercussions if you don’t fill prompts for each day.
Q. Can I post early/late?
Yes, you can post whenever you want. We will only reblog posts during October, but you can use our prompts all year round. The day you post will only affect your probability of being reblogged.
Q. Will you reblog my post?
Due to the sheer number of content posted during Whumptober we can’t promise to reblog every single post. We will make a random selection trying to capture a wide variety of content. The following will increase your chances at being reblogged:
tag your post properly
post within 2-3 days of the theme you want to fill: if you fill the prompt for Day 1 your chances of being reblogged during October 1st to 3rd are highest and will go towards zero afterwards.
Q. What if I don’t understand a prompt/theme?
Send us an ask! We’re happy to help with wild, unhelpful clarifications or brainstorming. That being said, the themes are entirely up for interpretation. Don’t take them too literally. For example: You can be choking on a cherry, someone else can choke you or you could be choked up on emotions, etc.
Q. What kind of content can I make? Can it be NSFW?
This is a MIXED MEDIA event! You can write fic, post meta, doodle or paint, create a gifset or photo edit, link a song, or get crafty with video - anything goes. As for NSFW, make what you like, we just hope that you’ll tag your work accordingly so that others participating in the event can stay safe.
Q. Can I combine Whumptober with other creation challenges?
Absolutely, as long as the other challenges allow it too.
Q. Can I upload/repost my Whumptober content to other social media platforms?
Of course! You can post your own content wherever you like (or you can opt to not publish it at all). Additionally we’ve created an AO3 Collection to archive any fics posted there. It can be accessed here. The tumblr blog @whumptober-archive is the official archive, so please respect the boundaries of any closeted whumpers in your social circle.
Q. Can I use prompts to write a new chapter for an existing fic?
Yes.
Q. An existing fic I am currently writing contains many of the Whumptober prompts, can I use it?
If you are actively writing this fic at the moment with the Whumptober prompts in mind, yes. If you’ve previously posted something that checks the boxes, we ask that you not include it retroactively for this current year. You can, however, add new chapters relating to one or more of the prompts.
Q. What kind of characters can I write for?
Fandom characters, OC characters, human, furry, alien, cyborg, RPF, whoever you like. You can use the generic “whumpee” character or have specific ones.
Q. Does it have to take place in a specific fandom?
No, you can create works for your own worlds or for fandoms or for both. You can also create more generic or pan-fandom works. You can do cross-overs or use OCs, whatever you want.
Q. Can I use a prompt multiple times?
Yes, but it only counts once towards being a completionist.
Q. If I’m not comfortable with one day’s prompts can I use a prompt of a different day as a substitute and still be a completionist?
No, you can’t exchange prompts for different days. However, if all four prompts of a specific day make you uncomfortable, we have created an alternate prompts list that you can draw from. You can exchange any prompt with these, but please make sure not to use them twice.
Q. Where can I post my work?
Post where and how you want. You don’t have to (cross)post it to Tumblr or at all. Just keep in mind if it’s not on Tumblr we will not be able to add it to the blog archive.
Q. Can I start posting early?
You can, but this is an October event and wouldn’t it be more fun with everyone doing it at the same time? That being said, you can post early, but we won’t be reblogging any work predating October 1st.
Q. Do I have to finish a fic I started/can I post WIP’s?
Yes you can post WIPs. And you’re not obligated to finish it in October for it to count towards being a completionist.  
Q. Is co-writing allowed?
Yes, absolutely, and it would count towards being a completionist for both/all of you.
Q. Do I have to create 31 standalone pieces to be considered a completionist or can I write one continuous story?
One continuous story is fine.  The challenge is to write something for 31 prompts. If that’s spread over 31 fics or just one, you are still considered a completionist. (The same goes for every other media you choose.)
Q. Is there a min/max limit on word count?
There is no limit.
Q. Can I combine prompts? Is there a limit on how many?
No limit and combine as many as you’d like.
Q. Is a hc/angst/emotional whump focus ok?
Of course! We are not going to establish a threshold for whumpiness. If you think it’s whumpy enough, then it’s whumpy enough. It can be physical, psychological, emotional, or any combination of the three.
Q. What’s considered nsfw?
See this post
Q. What is whump?
Typically the genre includes situations where a fictional character is hurt, be it emotionally, psychologically, or physically. Fanlore provides information here.
Q. My interpretation of the prompt isn’t whumpy at all, does that count?
If you don’t think your interpretation is whumpy, then it doesn’t count for Whumptober. Remember that whump comes in many forms, though, and that we don’t have a whump-checker or a threshold for how much whump needs to be included. If you think your interpretation contains enough whump to count, then it does.
Q. Can I start working on the prompts before October?
Absolutely! That’s why we post the prompts a month in advance. We recognise how difficult it can be creating for 31 days in “real time” so feel free to start creating early!
Q. How do I tag triggers?
tw at the end of the word, ex. #gore tw
Q. Do I have to use your tags?
Yes, if you want your work archived on the blog. If not, feel free to use whatever tags you want. 
Q. Does combining prompts count towards completion?
Yes
Q. Can we @ you?
Yes but we mostly rely on the #whumptober2023 tag.
Q. Is there anything we are absolutely not allowed to write?
There are no rules, but please make sure to properly tag your trigger warnings. And keep in mind Tumblr’s policies if you are posting it here (or the policies for whatever site you use).
Q. Where can I go for brainstorming help?
Here on Discord or come into our ask box.
Q. My characters are minors, is that ok?
Yes, but as with everything else, use clear and descriptive tags.
Q. Can I cross post on other blogs?
Yes, multiple platforms and blogs are perfectly acceptable. You can also post different works to different accounts under different names, without posting them everywhere at once.
Note: This is a creation challenge, please don’t repost your old work under our tags (unless it’s been changed or edited for the event).
Thanks for reading, and happy whumping!

Facts About General Anesthesia (That I learned from having surgery today):
You cannot eat or drink anything for at least 7-ish hours before going under anesthesia. Not even water.
In cases where someone is rushed into surgery unexpectedly (like in a car accident) they have to use a paralyzing agent to prevent vomiting, followed by the actual fall-asleep juice. (The doctor told me that)
Sometimes, your veins can be too small and the doctor can't find a place to put the iv. They stuck me three times before they found one.
Getting an iv in your hand hurts more than getting one in your elbow.
They put a mask over my face with oxygen and told me to take a bunch of deep breaths? To make my blood oxygenated? I think? It smelled like plastic.
The actual chemical of the anesthesic hurt? They told me it would. It was cold as it traveled up my arm and it stung and kinda made my hand ache?
My last thought was "ow." And then I woke up. I don't remember falling asleep at all.
I did not dream.
Not all anesthetics make you loopy afterwards. Mine didn't. I was sleepy, but I was perfectly mentally coherent.
They made me lay there on the table and wake up for 15 minutes. I got bored. Afterwards they put me in a wheelchair and my mom drove me home.
Keep in mind, this is just my experience and everyone is different. But I think this could be helpful to medical/lab whump writers
(Like me :D)

Prompt 7. First night in the hospital
Lab Rat Whumpee escapes the lab while severely injured. They wake up in a real hospital for the first time but they’re convinced they were dragged back to the lab. Do they lash out at the doctors, or sullenly accept their “fate?”

from this @skittles-the-whumpee
Lab whump with a whumpee was grown in a lab so there's technically nothing illegal but over time the human clone lab rat starts gaining sentience.
tw lab whump, hospital-esque setting, mention of a bunch of medical equipment and procedures but nothing really descriptive, nonhuman (clone?) whumpee, death wish at the very end
whumper is clinical and cold, never really caring about their test subject
whumper is actually fond of the little lab rat... so long as they're obedient and perfect for their purpose
whumper is a little reluctant from the get go. is this really okay? when whumpee starts showing signs of sentience, these feelings of doubt start getting out of control
whumpee loves their owner. loves the lab. the experiments can be harsh, but the first feelings they experience are love and joy
whumpee hates the lab. hates hates hates it more than anything. the first feelings they experience are rage and hatred
whumpee knows nothing but pain and isolation. the first feelings they experience are loneliness and terror
the lab itself is a dubious place where many things are hush hush, and everyone only ever knows as much as they absolutely must
it's not a tight knit community by any means. everyone keeps to themselves. whumper is just as isolated as whumpee - they kind of only have each other for company
whumpee starts asking questions like who am i? where am i? why am i?
whumper explains the experiment and whumpee is horrified
whumper tells whumpee they don't need to know about any of that
cages and syringes and white coats and white walls and sterile environments and surgical tables and surgical tools and sutures and incisions and blinding lights and leather straps and metal restraints and paper gowns and the constant buzzing of the equipment and beeping of the monitors
whumpee is a clone. an actual clone made of a real person's stolen dna. whumpee manages to escape and runs into someone who looks just like them
whumpee is actually made of whumper's dna. whumper is doing all these experiments on someone who looks exactly like themself. whumpee doesn't even realise this because there are no mirrors- they have no idea what they look like
whumper
"getting a little too emotional there, are we? i suppose it's time to make a new one again, start fresh."
"don't pretend to understand things like that. emotions, thoughts and feelings... they're not for you."
"i know exactly what you can and can't feel because i made you."
"i'd say it's for the greater good, but honestly? it's not. they're in it for the money, i'm in it for the money, and you're in it because you don't have a choice."
"you... can feel that?"
"where did you hear that? / where did you learn that?"
"you weren't supposed to be able to cry."
whumpee
"i don't understand! i don't understand anything! please! please help me understand!"
"i can feel this horrible pain in my chest regardless of the amount of painkillers and i don't get it. why won't it go away?"
"i've never had water come out of my eyes like that before... not- not in this quantity- is, is this something new you've done to me?"
"i just can't stop. i can't stop shaking."
"please stop hurting me. i don't think i can take it anymore. i don't want to take it."
"whenever you leave... i get so restless. like i want to run after you, be somewhere near you. it must be intentional, right? is that to prevent me from escaping? but i've never felt it before..."
"this thing... this state called death. i think that's what i really want."

This is very random, but imagine people working at (pet)whump rehabilitation centers and making tiktok about "things at the WRC that just make sense".
Carpets on every floor for the ones that are still kneel instead of sitting.
Special, simple menus so they don't get overwhelmed from the too many choices.
Objects such as toys and colouring books in each room so they can practice using their hands, and free will, without the pressure of others looking at them.
Fake rules that whumpees are urged to break.

Consider this:
A robot caretaker and a robot whumpee. The robot caretaker has watched how humans show affection, and is trying to comfort the robot whumpee even though human comfort is something alien to both of them.

MASTERLIST
To make things as convenient as possible for my readers.
“An Odd Little Thing” (COMPLETED)  
To him, a cruel, horrid monster has plucked him up and stolen him away from his masters to scrap his parts.
To her, a useless, half-damaged robot she’d scavenged from the trash sits on a shelf in her workshop, in desperate need of repair.
Both need each other to heal. But will they be able to find that comfort in each other?
“A Rather Polite, Bigger Thing” (COMPLETED) 
A companion story to Odd Little Thing:  
While exploring the corners of her new neighborhood, a young woman comes upon a rather curious new companion; a broken-down android who is both polite and anxious to please. She takes him in, determined to fix him no matter the cost, but even with the help of one of the city’s best mechanics, returning him to full splendor might not be as simple as merely replacing his damaged components.

She takes him in, determined to fix him no matter the cost, but even with the help of one of the city’s best mechanics, returning him to full splendor might not be as simple as merely replacing his damaged components.

“An Odd Little Thing”(Completed)
To him, a cruel, horrid monster has plucked him up and stolen him away from his masters to scrap his parts. 
To her, a useless, half-damaged robot she’d scavenged from the trash sits on a shelf in her workshop, in desperate need of repair. 
Both need each other to heal. But will they be able to find that comfort in each other?

okay but like. monstrous caretakers. caretakers who are quite literally eldritch abominations. caretakers whose appearance would make a lesser man want to curl up in a ball out of fright alone. caretakers who just feel off — not necessarily in a bad way — but in a «getting deja vu from a place you’ve never been to» kind of way. caretakers with multiple eyes or bloodied scleras, with a mouth just a bit too wide and teeth just a bit too many. caretakers that smell of moss and burnt flesh and souls lost in the moors.
caretakers that despite their appearance and mayhaps even their nature are a safe haven in whumpee’s world of cruelty.
