#worried teammates

[abbie-brianna]

Peter is rambling about ridiculous things and the avengers are half-laughing and half-exasperated because they're in the middle of something that's dangerous and needs all their attention until Sam eventually says, "Shut up, Peter." and Peter does and everyone's so relieved until they realize that Peter is so quiet because he's slumped, unconscious, across the desk.

When the whumpee hurts their leg, but they don't want to worry their teammates or deal with proper medical care, so they decide not to say anything. The whumpee trying to hide the fact that they’re limping from their teammates, but getting caught after only a few hours, and their teammates making them tell them what happened. The whumpee admitting that they got hurt and didn't say anything, and their teammates asking why. The whumpee admitting that they didn't want to worry them, and their teammates pointing out that they’re going to worry more if the whumpee hides this kind of thing. The whumpee begrudgingly admitting that that makes sense, and their teammates making them get medical care.

Can't Eat

@juneofdoom

Day 12 Fainting | Trembling Dehydration

The Whumpee has been safe with their team for a month, but they struggle to realize they're safe. They struggle to realize it's ok to eat. Even water is still considered a luxury to them. The team is struggling to help Whumpee while trying not to cause Whumpee to think they're a group of people working for Whumper or being captured by another group like Whumper. Trying to get Whumpee to leave their room is also a challenge. Even to see the team's psychiatrist. It's hard to keep track of when Whumpee eats or drinks water.

Whumpee ignores the trembling as they get ready to meet the psychiatrist. They still get anxious attending these appointments, but this doesn't cause dizziness. Whumpee ignores this.

As Wgumpee walks down the hall, they feel worse but keep walking to the appointment rather than the medbay. "Hey, are you ok?" someone asks. "I'm f—." The Whumpee falls forward, allowing teammates to catch them and slowly get them onto the floor. Relieved other teammates see what's going on so they don't have to leave Whumpee in the hallway to get the medic. Whumpee wakes before the medic gets to them, but they feel tired and weak. The teammates and medic know what caused Whumpee to faint but worry about how sick Whumpee is. The teammates wait in the waiting room.

Within twenty minutes, the medic confirms the teammates' concerns. Whumpee had gone without food and water for almost two days. It's not life-threatening, but this is a problem they need to figure out how to deal with this problem. "They're getting fluids and nutrients infusions," the medic explains, "and asleep." Within minutes the leader finds out and decides it's time to meet about this. Aware the physiatrist has been trying to help Whumpee.

The psychiatrist isn't sure if inviting Whumpee to eat — whether in their room or not — will help. At this point, the decision is to take the risk Whumpee won't feel safe here or watch them die. Most agree they need to work on getting Whumpee to feel safe so that they can eat and drink water. Aware at first, they'll think they're being told to eat or drink. "What would they think if we only shared their favorite food?" One teammate asks, "wouldn't someone who kidnapped not do this? They'd give their captive crap to eat when allowed to eat." "They have a good point," the psychiatrist agrees. The teammate who suggested the idea goes to make one of Whumpee's favorite dinners.

Whumpee wakes up to the smell of food. Whumper would never have food waiting for them. Still, is this a cruel trick by Whumper? That they'll watch Whumper eat? "Look, I made one of your favorites," teammate smiles, showing Whumpee the food and putting the plate on the table. They poisoned it. whumpee thinks. I'm not safe here. "It's safe, see," teammate takes a bite of the food, "it's ok, you're safe. remember?" Whumpee is still uncertain, but they fear their punishment if they don't eat. The teammate knows this is what Whumpee thinks and will be for a while. Even as they show Whumpee their favorite cookies. This could take months, but this is good as long as they're eating and making progress. The medic thinks, watching Whumpee eat.

all these anti-Flyfish posts I’ve been seeing may be doing their job a bit too well. this propaganda is letting the REAL threat slip under the radar.

Ink Storm kills. do not let Drizzlers commit their crimes in peace.

these underhanded lurkers are counting on their more outwardly annoying fellow soldiers the Flyfish to distract from their insidious Ink Storms that disrupt the entire map and make recovery virtually impossible.

The Flyfish Brigade is doing just fine. Join the Drizzistance to make a REAL difference.

Wait, fuck, hold on-

THEY CAN'T FUCKING BRING OUT AN ANTI-HERO ARTEMIS WHEN I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF STUDYING FOR FINALS!!

WHAT THE FUCK, DC?!? HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO FOCUS?!?

oh i am so excited holy shit. am i the only one getting slade vibes from her?? because im getting massive slade/rose wilson vibes from the single eye cover and im wondering if artemis is a plant, someone unconnected from slade who wouldn't be considered a threat, to go undercover and get close to the titans. this is also like, high-key a chance to make jade and artemis sisters and/or half-sisters in canon which would be neat. i know comics fans aren't huge on changes to the canon based on outside things but making them half sisters doesn't really change jades backstory, nor artemis'.

#i am beating back spitfire fans with a broom #you don't understand what you are asking for. this man canonically has children and is married to someone else #so you are only asking for heartbreak #also Artemis canonically has a kid with someone else #so. again. stop it. if it happens it will be SAD #which #... i mean honestly id be cool with it if it was like... a mutual breakup where they remain friends after #but i kinda want Artemis and Wally to get character development without romance involved so like #im team 'lets not do that pls' #oh holy fuck dc wait don't try to pair up roy and artemis. waid i love you i trust you pls no #this is the pain of being a fan of a female comics character lmao. immediately worried about a shoehorned romance #and don't get me wrong. i fucking LOVE YJs spitfire but this isn't that and it would be so different #and itd be real hard not to be different in a bad way #so #yeah #thats my thoughts #OH GOD FUCK IS ARTEMIS SUPPOSED TO BE FRAN?????? WALLY'S SUPERHERO/SUPERVILLAIN TEAMMATE GF THAT HE LEAVES THE TEAM FOR??? #TO GO TO COLLEGE TOGETHER?????? #Like. I know that Artemis took Frans place in YJ but is Artemis doing it AGAIN in CANON?? Waid no i LIKE Fran. #Shes magneto but cooler and she just wants to be normal and she was childhood bffs with Wally and she also murdered her family and grew up #with a cult mom.

I was so genuinely shocked to find out the base was found through bounties because that’s so easily avoidable there’s a 1 minute warning. Unlike yesterday were blue weren’t even going to their base because they were scared of the bounty giving it away.

“Well, [Charles] needs to be in a Red Bull RB19 with Adrian Newey fussing around him all day. Short of that, it’s not going to be easy. If he’s at Ferrari, I don’t know what he needs, but he needs a car as quick as a Red Bull and no politics. [It’s] impossible. He’s not gonna achieve Max’s level, in my opinion, because he’s got too much other stuff going on in his brain to focus on being as good as Max is right now.”

“I think he’s quite a hard guy. I remember watching him at Monza in Formula 2, in his last year when he was with Prema. A good team doing a lot of winning, but he wasn’t very good in qualifying – I remember I chatted to him afterwards and said, 'It’s surprising you’re not quick here, Charles.' And he said, ‘I just didn’t drive very well. I just wasn’t very good. I wasn’t very good on the braking at the Parabolica, never really very good into the first Lesmo’. I thought, ‘Wow, this guy is unbelievably self-critical – this guy’s bound to become World Champion!’

“You could say maybe he’s a bit too self-critical. Maybe, but I’ve always felt self-criticism is an incredibly powerful tool of how to improve and, generally, I think I’m right. Maybe Charles is a little bit too self-critical. But I don’t think it’s hurt him really. I think it’s more just being an intelligent guy at Ferrari – I think it’s a difficult thing to be – intelligent, and at Ferrari – unless it’s your Ferrari and you’ve created it as Michael [Schumacher] or Niki [Lauda] did!”

The Lotus Eaters Translators Love Sannyo

This was in Chapter 32 she actually fell very far in the polls that year. She was the lowest windows character that year.

In chapter 44 they expressed their disappointment. Then jumped to Hisami. lol. Maybe they felt they were fighting a losing battle. Hisami is great though, she's Touhou's first Yandere after all.

But the important thing is that they love Sannyo. I mean look, they made her a cute little collection of pics

When the whumpee joins the rest of their team for an outing, but when they show up a few minutes late looking like they’re about to pass out, their teammates calling the days activities off so they can take the whumpee home. The whumpee protesting that they’ll be fine, and that their teammates shouldn't inconvenience themselves, and their teammates kindly telling them to shut up and cooperate. The whumpee still feeling a bit bad about their teammates canceling everything, but letting them take them home and fuss over them anyway. Later that day, the whumpee and their team sitting together in the whumpee’s home, the whumpee under a pile of blankets on the couch, and them all watching a movie as the whumpee dozes off to the feeling of a teammate playing with their hair, feeling safe and cared for.

Have been thinking about Rosquez + every single concept offered in this prompt list but especially the first one :

General ideas :

Someone (Uccio? Graziano? probably Graziano as the leader but he puts Uccio in the confidence and asks him to protect Vale) missions someone to find Valentino’s soulmates in the early 2000s when he’s at the top of the sport and they cannot take of the risk of Valentino’s soulmate ruining this

[obviously everything is being organized behind Valentino’s back, it’s still illegal, can’t involve him too much]

Honestly, soulmates are the last thing on Valentino’s mind, he only cares about racing and sure, he knows that the soulmates thing is real (they hear about people dying together all of the time) but he couldn’t care less

There’s an attempt made on Marc’s life but no one connect this to soulmates stuff because he’s like 10 at the time

I’m thinking car accident (because, well, gotta make it look like an accident) with some heavy repercussions that don’t prevent Marc from becoming a high level rider

If this was a very dramatic TV show aired by the CW, I think one of Marc’s parents would be severely injured in the accident and their heart stops on the operating table at the hospital and Marc has to watch his other parent drop dead in front of his eyes

The day they meet in 2008 and first lay eyes on each other, they definitely both feel something

I think for a few years Marc thinks what if and people around him just laugh at him and tells him that he’s being delusional and he was just really happy to meet his hero

On Valentino’s side, I think it’s something that maybe bothers him for a few days and he eventually lets it go (especially when he tells Uccio about it and Uccio tells him that he’s being silly, let’s go out and forget about this with alcohol and girls) (meanwhile a trillion alarms are blazing in his head, oh shit, what are they gonna do now except try to keep Vale away from Marc)

#rpf #writing stuff #4693 #I don’t know this is a mess let’s stop now #don’t have a big enough brain to develop this properly #like originally I wanted to consider the added layer of them being teammates to vale’s constant worry about marc hurting himself

[bluejaybytes]

show us your oc lore!!

I'm so sorry but it's exclusively my Splatoon OCs

I'm not at ALL confident in how legible this is, but this is my Web Of Lesbianism(tm), AKA how (almost) all of my lesbian sploon OCs connect to each other, excluding a few who only connect in small places and/or I don't feel like making icons for. Sorry to Scarlet, who absolutely warrants a place here, but I simply Do Not Want to make an icon for </3

Lore under the readmore because I get extremely rambly. whoops and apologies and this is probably the only time i'll ever let myself get THIS infodump-y in a Tumblr post. I'm writing this after I wrote it all out and I'm so fucking sorry it's literally over 2k words because I have no ability to stop once I've started and I've been outright POSSESSED by these losers for the past month. Here's basically everything about my Splatoon OCs

FOR NAMES. Top right is Basil (Blue tentacles), middle right is Penny (Her name is just written because I haven't drawn her yet), bottom right is June (Pink tentacles), bottom middle is Jake (Blue tentacles), bottom left is Parker (Purple tentacles, also the sanitized icon), middle left is Ruby (Orange tentacles), and top left is May (Pink tentacles)

Everything starts when May, Jake, and Ruby are all around ~16-17, while June, May's little sister, is around ~9. May is VERY into Jake, and Jake's just generally a big flirt and a huge romantic, though it's unsure if he really realizes May's extremely obvious crush on him (He doesn't), or he reciprocates, which is unfortunate, because Ruby, who's May's childhood best friend, is also very into her, but May doesn't realize this. When [UNDECIDED EVENT] happens and May and Jake both come to the realization they need to head to the surface to escape the oppressive Octarian domes, Ruby being with them is very clearly an afterthought, and she knows it. So, her jealousy over Jake being someone May has known for less time yet clearly loves more than her, and the fact that trying to escape being very, very illegal, she turns them both in.

Jake manages to call May before he's caught to warn her that Ruby turned them in and the cops will already be heading to her parents house, which gives May enough time to run home, grab June, and make a run for it. Both May and Jake manage to outrun the cops, with May and June ending up far into the outskirts of the domes, while Jake only gets further and deeper within them.

Around a month or two after their initial escape, May's spotted by a patrol of soldiers stationed right around the way to the surface, with the soldier who spots her specifically being Scarlet, the oldest sister to Ruby (Who's not featured here because I don't want to make her icon), who remembers May from when she was a kid and, alongside that, has been feeling disillusioned with life as a soldier, despite her high ranking, and decides not only to let May go, but to even share rations with her. This only increases as Scarlet realizes May is the runaway who's known to have a young child with her, and it goes from Scarlet sparing her own rations to stealing rations from the squad she leads to make sure both May and June are able to eat properly.

Of course, this doesn't last long, as Crimson, the middle sister to Scarlet and Ruby, and fellow soldier stationed with Scarlet's squad, gets suspicious of the missing rations, Scarlet's dismissal of the issue, and her wandering off frequently, and ends up following her and finds her giving the stolen rations to May. A fight breaks out between the two, with Crimson managing to nearly take Scarlet's eye out in the process, as Scarlet's the only person ever to bring a gun to a knife fight and lose. May booked it the MOMENT Crimson jumped out, so she's long gone by the time the scuffle ends, but Scarlet, having just been caught stealing rations, aiding a runaway, and now attacking a fellow soldier (Even if in self defense), bolts to try and make it to the surface as well, albeit she doesn't know where May ran off to.

May ends up making it to the surface around a month after that incident, after wandering lost for the time between, and, while struggling to try and buy some clothes thanks to the language barrier between her and the commonly spoken languages of the surface, one of the employees working there, Penny, is able to help figure out what May's looking for, and helps her with the whole process, since it's a lot different from how it was in the domes. They don't end up seeing each other after that for around a year, but it's important when they do, as Penny's was the first person on the surface May really had a good experience with, so when they randomly run into each other, May's very happy to be able to tell her how meaningful that was to her, and that she's much more adjusted to the culture and language now.

Meanwhile, Jake! Jake ends up wandering deep within the domes, far away from where the actual settlements and cities are, for over a year, just barely surviving through scavenging and avoiding patrolling soldiers. Still, he's not great at it, and eventually he ends up being held at gunpoint by Parker, who insists he tell her his rank and what he's doing out here. He has no idea, as he was never in the military and lies through his teeth. Luckily for him, Parker is a military deserter, and would've had a much worse reaction had she believed him, instead realizing that he's not a soldier and has no idea what he's talking about. Parker's been hiding out in the area, an abandoned sewer system that's frequented as a supply route for soldiers, for several months at this point, and while she actually enjoys her life of living down there, it's a lot of work to survive on her own, and realizing Jake's a fugitive also means he's a potential survival partner.

The two end up meeting up once every day for around a week before Parker feels confident enough that Jake isn't going to screw her over or try and turn her in or anything, and invites him to live with her at her "apartment", an old maintenance closet that's very secluded and not marked on any military maps, under the agreement that the two of them actually work together. Jake instantly agrees because he's been miserable and awful for the past year, while Parker's doing surprisingly well for herself, she even has multiple sets of clothes that she's stolen from nearby outposts (As well as an entire mattress she stole, and her most prized possession, a full deck of playing cards, and an Octo Shot she definitely killed a man for), as opposed to Jake, who's been going off of only what he had on him when everything went down, which is... practically nothing.

The plot basically slows down and chills out here for a while, May and June end up moving in with Penny after a few months of May and Penny hanging out instead of having to live in the shitty motel they'd been living in before (Albeit, the motel was better than the wilds they'd been living in before that), and Parker and Jake get adjusted to their lives in hiding surprisingly well. May and Scarlet even find each other on the surface again, they run into each other while May's out grocery shopping, and it's a very important moment for the both of them, as they've spent this entire time carrying around the guilt of feeling responsible for what happened, so them seeing the other and seeing how much better they're doing on the surface helps ease those guilts.

And then the events of Octo Expansion happen in the background. Parker and Jake know the routines of the soldiers in the area after years of living together, but the supply lines end up being used by sanitized Octoling soldiers after Kamabo starts massively ramping up production, leading to patrols of sanitized soldiers at seemingly random intervals, and outside of the predictable patterns that Parker and Jake were used to. Parker's out doing the laundry when a patrol finds her, and, greatly outnumbering her, end up nearly killing her, and dragging her back to be sanitized. She's in too bad of condition to be saved and reused as a test subject, so she's just sanitized instead.

Jake, naturally, notices when Parker never comes back from doing the laundry, and proceeds to be missing for upwards of two weeks. Jake does his best to look for her, but he also doesn't want to stray too far from their "apartment", as he's scared she might return home when he's gone, and with the unpredictable patrols, he doesn't feel like it's safe to stay out for as long as he wants to to look for her, so he ends up sticking close to home and just hoping he'll be able to find some clue of her. Of course, when he finally does, finally spotting her hanging around the entrance to the hallways that lead to their apartment, it's Not a good thing. He runs up to her to ask where she's been, and the moment he calls for her she turns and attacks him. It's not even a fair fight, even if he went in expecting a fight, he wouldn't have won, but this was a complete surprise. She quickly attacks him and takes him back to be put into the metro as a test subject, and, since he was brought back in much better shape than she was, he actually can be salvaged as a test subject!

And then he isn't. He's in the process of being readied as a test subject, namely, having his memories messed with, that the entire plot of Octo Expansion actually happens, and he's freed when the entire facility shuts down, and the metro is just a normal transport system again. He ends up wandering around for another month or so, except doing so very poorly, as the effects that being prepped to be a test subject had on his memory is bad, and basically erased all of his knowledge on how to survive on his own. Eventually, and luckily for him, he's found by one of the rescue teams that have been sent out in the aftermath of Octo Expansion to rescue lost and sanitized Octolings, and FINALLY gets brought to the surface, as well as being hospitalized for a whole myriad of problems, mainly being severely dehydrated from not remembering safe ways to find and gather water reliably.

When he's ready to be discharged, he realizes he has really nowhere to go, but since he still remembers May's phone number from when they were kids (As it's been years at this point, May and Jake are both in their mid 20s now, and June's around ~17), and calls her to ask if she can come pick him up and also if he can crash at her place for a bit. May is more than a bit surprised that her childhood friend she was fairly convinced had died years ago, and that she feels guilty for abandoning, is not only still alive, but super casual and chill just. Calling her cell and asking if he can sleep on her couch. At this point, June's already moved out, having been encouraged by both May and Penny to get out on her own and try getting out of her comfort zone, and is living in Splatsville with her roommate Basil, and not really having any major plot moments of her own. She's having fun and coming out of her shell and having silly lesbian shenanigans with her roommate in the background while Jake and May are experiencing the horrors.

Ultimately, this is about where thing stop being decided and I still need to figure out what happens next. Jake is living on May and Penny's couch (The universe will never let them have their house to themselves. Not even 3 months after June moves out, Jake's crashing on their couch), and has no memory of his time with Parker, Parker's MIA and potentially dead, and May's struggling with the idea that Jake's either in denial of some major trauma he must've faced through the years, or that she's somehow uniquely fucked up from what happened to them. To make matters worse, Jake's memory issues become more and more apparent, as he continues to struggle to remember Penny's name, instead repeatedly calling her "Parker", yet getting confused when he's corrected. I'm ultimately unsure what I'm going to do to resolve this plot thread, but May and Penny do realize that whoever Parker was, she was someone Jake knew in the time he was missing, and are trying to figure out just exactly who she was, if not where she actually is

Whether or not Parker is dead... it's up in the air. I initially planned for her to die and stay dead, but I'm the worlds biggest sap and I feel bad about killing her off permanently, as well as the fact I have plenty of silly ideas for what I could do with Parker once she's on the surface, so I'm still debating if it's more narratively satisfying for her to die or not. There's, if you believe it, actually a ton I'm glossing over (The intricacies of Jake and Parker's dynamic, the reasons why Parker left, basically everything about Basil and June, literally Basil has an entire friend group that has their own mini-plot that's not at all connected to this and doesn't get mentioned, Crimson is going to be more relevant once I figure out what I want to do with her, ect), but uh. That's the very long gist of it.

If anyone actually, genuinely reads through all of this. Thank you, apologies, and I love you

a little personal but idk it’s like…. i was such a different person when i first watched pinof6… like i did not know what clicking on that video would do to my psyche, but also i was just so horrifically lonely back then and dan and phil were like my one source of happiness …. and watching them reminisce about what their lives were like back then makes ME reminisce about my life when i first started watching dnp. it’s just so overwhelming like i was 100% confident i’d wouldn’t even be alive by 2023 so seeing dnp being more comfortable with themselves whilst also being in a much better place now is ….. gahh it’s just too overwhelming

#like i was just an extremely depressed kid who had zero friends back then #but now i have people i care about and that care about me #im no longer weighed down my worrying about what my conservative christian classmates/teammates would think of me #i feel so much more free now #i’ll talk to anyone about my interests now and i really dont care how im perceived #like fuck i’ll talk to some random stranger about rinne amagi like watch me #and it’s like im a grown ass adult with two jobs and one more semester left of university #bonkers i tell you #bonkers
