A whumpee who overworks themselves to absolute exhaustion, telling themselves they deserve it.
They want nothing more than to rest, close their eyes and sleep for a day and a half through - But there’s people that have gone for longer than they did, and they don’t even need it that much anyways. They just need to learn to suck it up.
Suck up the way their head pounds and buzzes with every move, suck up the way their muscles ache after days and days of labor.
There’s nothing stopping them from taking a day off, giving in - Nothing except the guilt hanging over them and suffocating them like a weight after their eyes close involuntarily when they sit down for a minute too long. They haven’t earned it yet.
But will they ever?
