CW: possession, amnesia, implied drowning, implied death (temporary), references to suffocation and choking.
Consider a possessed Whumpee who, when whatever is possessing them takes control the only thing that can bring them back is to be brought to the brink of death.
Whumpee comes to after an event, exhausted and weak, with missing time and injuries they don’t remember getting. Maybe they are soaking wet from being held under water, or struggling to breathe after being choked or suffocated. All with the familiar feeling of bruised and cracked ribs from having to be resuscitated once again.
As soon as they start showing signs of life, Caretaker collapses in a sobbing heap. It had taken so long to revive them this time, and Caretaker was scared they wouldn’t come back. All Whumpee can do is place a weak hand on Caretaker’s nearest body part and hoarsely thank them for their help; which only makes Caretaker cry harder.
They’re both so tired and scared, and they know this method isn’t sustainable. But they don’t know what else to do so it has to keep happening until they can find a away to get rid of the possession for good.
