Other, More Considerate People: I like to keep my story as close to canon and ship-free as possible so everyone can enjoy it. 🙂

My Self-Indulgent Ass: ‘Sup, assholes, here’re all my implausible OTPs, their future children, a bunch of OCs that play prominent roles, and all my sexuality headcanons are in effect.

“To understand this fic you’ll need to refer to page 15, side A of my Extensive headcanon timeline of the entire history of this character and everyone he ever met, the contents of which are helpfully provided absolutely nowhere.”

“behold as I construct the precarious scaffolding of this story from discarded tumblr shitposts, my id, a dream I had once, poorly concealed psychological projection, the abstract concept of the way it feels to look out at the sea, and a bunch of dumb jokes I couldn’t stop cackling to myself about. oh, but it’s fanfiction.“

I worked with toddlers and pre schoolers for three years. Sometimes I accidentally slip and tell a friend to say bye to an inanimate object (“say bye bus!”) & occasionally they unthinkingly just do it.

I’m glad there’s a teacher version of “accidentally called teacher ‘mom’”

when I worked at Medieval Times occasionally I would slip in real life and call people “my lord”

One time during family prayer, dad began: “our father who art in heaven, American Airlines, how can I help you?”

One time my dad went to the White Castle drive-thru and the lady (who was supposed to say ‘Welcome to White Castle, what’s your crave?’) asked, “Welcome to White Castle, what’s your problem?”

She apologized profusely while my dad proceeded to lose his shit laughing.

Yesterday I went to Wendy’s and the girl said “Welcome to McDonalds” and then just sighed

I’m literally wheezing in laughter (literally with the literal meaning) at the what’s your problem one

Two days ago, I answered my phone with my work greeting. My mum laughed for five minutes solid.

Question for those of you who do the “lay-on-your-bed-and-imagine” thing: do you usually imagine yourself as a character, an OC, or yourself in a different situation?

I’ll start – I usually imagine some vague OC specifically created to fit some hyper-specific whump situation. I’ll often get hooked on one situation for a week or two.

Good question! I like to “write” a story in my head usually involving my current fav getting captured and needing to be rescued. Or he’s stuck in a perilous situation for awhile. (I say stuck because I usually fall asleep before he’s rescued and just add more whump to the situation the next night.) xD

Sometimes its fandom-related and I’m usually an OC. Sometimes it’s fandomless and entirely original content—like whump scenarios for my own characters.

I do this as I lay to sleep. I imagine myself as an OC (my face claim is Ashley Benson). I used to use the name Jessica for fake me, but now I use either my name or my nickname or no name at all. I imagine myself caring for whoever happens to be my favorite character at the moment. They’re usually heavily bruised and wounded and I either take care of them (bandage them up etc.), lay in bed with them with their head resting on my chest, or sit next to them and caress their cheek or hold their hand. And I always converse with them and ask them if they’re alright, if they need anything etc. And since I love bruises, their faces are always bruised. I like imagining gently kissing their bruised cheek.

Oh, and I also tend to write the situations I imagine into my fanfics (I write character x reader fics). Usually, after I write it down, I move on the a different fantasy.

Oh I do me. It’s all me, sometimes different versions of me, like AUs, but yeah, they’re all me. 

Omg. Other people do this?

I know right

When I found out other people did the same thing I was so happy

I’ve never talked with anyone about this before. I’m shocked. Like, literally, shocked.

Me neither. I never told anyone. And then one day I saw a tumblr post (not this one) about this and I was in shock – happy shock, but shock. I haven’t “told” anyone else, like, people outside of tumblr, and I never would’ve said anyhing about it here, but it’s nice that someone had the courage to say it and make me feel less out of place in the world

The only reason I felt comfortable bringing this up is because I saw the same post you saw. I’m glad someone brought it up that once, so I knew it wasn’t just me.

When I was in middle school I used to pretend to be the whumpee and my crush was the one comforting me. The situations were always uber-specific, usually related to a battle injury of some kind? I still do similar things, though I’ve moved onto other people I know and who are important to me “comforting” me. Tbh, I’ve always been more into the hurt/comfort aspect of whump rather than the injury. I attribute it to the emotional distance received as a child from the rest of my family and friends. 😂😂

I literally can’t sleep unless I do this and I’ve been doing it since elementary/early middle school. I almost always “play” a whumped canon character. Who it is varies based on what media I’m consuming (right now its either MacGyver or Chandler from The Last Ship) and the specific whump tends to vary week to week depending on whatever scenario I have cooking.

Holy, jeepers. I have finally found my people.

Welcome to the club, friend!

I imagine an OC getting whumped, usually. On the rare occasions that I have a character from an actual show being whumped, it’s usually right after watching that person get whumped in a similar way. I’m usually the perpetrator of the whump, occasionally a support person, basically never the whumpee.

When I was a young teen, I did this a lot. I imagined I was one of the support staff for various canons – mechanics or medics for Star Wars/Star Trek, healers for various fantasy settings, trainers/coaching staff for sports teams, etc. It got quite detailed and there’s a bunch of never-published (terrible) OC and self-insert fic lurking somewhere on one of my drives. I kind of thought everyone did it?
