#team leader whump

[whump-or-whatever]

I love it when a really strong team leader, who usually speaks in a loud and clear voice, is reduced to soft muttering by whatever pain they’re dealing with. The team members see their leader in some sort of visible discomfort and ask if they’re okay. Despite the fact that leader says they’re fine, the team can tell immediately by the small voice they speak in that they are most certainly not fine.

Sudden Collapse *Team Leader Edition*

Come on, pull yourself together.

Leader leaned his hands on the table, squinting at the map sprawled across it and blinked a few times as it blurred in and out of focus.

"Leader? You were saying..?" Teammate Two prompted.

"Right," he started again, ignoring how the room span as he lifted his hands from the table. "So if we plant charges on...on the..." his voice trailed off, his thoughts slipping through his mind like sand. He dug his nails into his palms, willing himself to concentrate.

"You alright, boss?" Teammate One asked, their brow creased as they stepped closer.

"Fine," he dismissed as the team exchanged confused and concerned glances.

Just wanting to get through the briefing, Leader took a slow, deliberate breath before continuing. "If we plant charges on the w...west generator, that should... should buy us- enough t-time to... to..." Leader stumbled through his words, his sluggish mind unable to navigate the fragmented thoughts as another wave of nausea rolled over him.

He vaguely registered a muffled shout from Medic.

"'m fine," he slurred, reaching out for something to stabilize himself as his body swayed dangerously. He hadn't even realized he was falling until his head slammed against the floor.

"-oss? Boss!"

gah there's just something so good about dictator villains capturing the rebel leader who's been giving subjugated people hope and just... breaking them in order to break the spirits of the people they've conquered

even better when the people don't take it as the loss of all hope, but instead use it as a driving factor to rally and fight

#it's also incredibly important that the rebel is not killed but broken because the aim is to humiliate them and scare the people #not make a martyr #(mostly for whumpy reasons) its also important that a lot of their torment is public #whump prompt #team leader whump #fantasy whump

That moment when a Whumpee who’s usually a skilled fighter gets distracted in combat with an enemy. Whether it’s by another Whumpee or Caretaker, team.

The instant they go to throw a punch or attempt to stab a Whumper, and the Whumper side steps. Swiftly pulling out a blade and stabbing Whumpee under their outstretched arm. Or better yet, they grab Whumpee’s arm and twist it inward to stab them with their own weapon.

The gasp or hitched breath Whumpee lets out as they realize what happened. Their friends or teammates horror when they realize what happened.

"You like to think of yourself as a hero. A saviour."

"Not in as many words, but yeah! Maybe I do think I'm doing some good in this godforsaken world!" Leader bit out, struggling against their bonds.

Whumper scoffed. "Of course. But you know what I think? You're just a silly little shepherd, sending their lambs to the slaughter."

blanket

A stoic leader's comfort item is a plain blue, kid-sized knitted blanket that he has to bring everywhere if he wants to get any sleep.

It was one of the first presents he received from his team, maybe one of his first presents in a long time. Something that was just grabbed off a store shelf and the team didn't put much thought into, besides the fact that their captain seemed to always be cold and his favourite colour was definitely blue. They had even bought the wrong size because it being knitted meant that it looked bulkier and bigger in the package than it actually was. They didn't expect Leader, who has rarely shown much emotion to begin with, to be so happy when he received it, eyes lighting up like a child opening his Christmas presents. In fact, he's so happy that Right-Hand feels bad for not checking the size because Leader can hardly wrap his torso in it. She considers stealing it back to get it exchanged but Leader had already started sleeping with it. It becomes one of the first things that lets him open up to the team.

Leader doesn't even bother to hide it from his team, rolling it up to hug it during team movie nights. The team never forgets to bring it to him when he's stuck in the medical bay for the night and will throw it back into his room when he forgets it on the couch.

Through the next few years it surprisingly remains in good shape (according to Leader) despite the once bright blue colour being long faded. It's been brought to every damn mission to be cuddled against Leader's body in his sleeping bag. Leader has even mended holes with patches that Youngest bought, none of which match the actual colour. It's an eyesore to everyone but him (and the colourblind Youngest). Since it's also had everything from food to bloodstains on it, Leader washes it a few times a month by hand. Leader had gotten childishly upset when Medic mentioned that maybe it was time to let it go when he noticed wool pieces in one of Leader's wounds when he was cleaning it. The one time he accidentally puts it in the machine with the rest of his bedsheets is when it finally breaks down.

Leader is distraught that he has to leave it behind right before going on a high ranking mission with a more experienced team. His team take the opportunity to fix it for him, salvaging what they can to incorporate the old blanket into a much larger patchwork type piece that Leader could actually cover himself with. Its a team effort where each member does a part each because they want to get it done before Leader comes back, knowing how sleep deprived he could possibly be.

But Leader never gets to see it.

They had waited for him to come through the door, his welcome home dinner on the table and the new blanket neatly folded on his usual seat as a surprise. Instead they had been greeted by a higher ranking officer with Leader's dogtag dropped into the open palm of Right-Hand. The mission had claimed a few lives and Leader had been among the fallen. The team knows that it was a high risk mission, but their Captain not coming back to them wasn't something that they had anticipated.

But Leader does get to sleep with his new blanket. The team make sure to wrap him in it before he's placed in his casket.

This now has a second part and will be continued!

Defiant Leader x Confident Villain

Is it self indulgent? Yes.

Do I post team Whump anyways? Yes.

*ignoring all my other WIPs* I hope you enjoy

*~*~*~*~*

Leader grinned as they fell with villain, hands twisted into villain’s black shirt. Villain let out a soft breath as their back hit the ground. They moved to buck Leader off but Leader was faster. Leader was always faster. Leader settled their weight against Villain’s stomach keeping them pinned.

“Always so smug,” Villain said with an effort, moving their neck slightly to get more comfortable.

“What can I say?” Leader asked, flashing their signature smirk. “You always made it easy to best you.”

A flash of metal and Leader’s hand shot out, not breaking eye contact with Villain, as they held Villain’s wrist and squeezed.

“Nice try,” said Leader as they slammed Villain’s hand to the ground. They slammed it again, and again, until Villain let the knife go. Villain’s other hand shot up and Leader caught it, pinning Villain’s hands to the ground above their head.

Villain’s lips pursed before they got that glint in their eye that always made Leader nervous. “You know, I think you just like being on top,” Villain said and smiled at the warning squeeze Leader gave Villain’s wrists. “I’m right, am I?”

“Don’t flatter yourself, Villain.”

“Don’t get me wrong, Leader. I think you look good like this,” Villain raised their head off the ground, the blood on the side of their eye dripping from their previous scuffle. Leader wanted nothing more than to lean backwards away from them, but they stayed as still as they could.

“I just think you’d look perfect on your knees in front of me.”

Leader actually laughed despite themselves. “In your dreams.”

“Everynight,” said Villain without hesitation. “But I don’t know. Somethings telling me you’ll do it before the day’s out.”

Leader’s lip curled back into a snarl, “I’ll never kneel to the likes of—“

“Leader!”

Medic.

“Leader!”

“Over here!” Leader said without looking away from Villain. They were a slippery sort, and Leader could never trust them when they turned their back.

Villain smiled, getting comfy on the ground again. “I think you should turn around.”

“I think you should shut up.”

Villain just smiled, that awful glint in their eye. Leader turned their head to look over their shoulder and their grip on Villain slacked. All of their teammates were behind them, but that’s not what shocked them to their core. It was that they were all currently disarmed and had knives to their throats from what must have been Villain’s henchmen.

But villain never had henchmen. They were always a solo act.

“You had your friends,” Villain said beneath them, and Leader tightened their grip on Villain’s wrists. They turned back to face Villain, eyes shining with hatred. “I was feeling left out of the bonding experience. So I got some friends of my own.”

“Let them go,” Leader said, voice coarse and brokering no leniency. Villain just smiled up at them.

“I don’t think I will.”

Leader cursed, raising their fist in threat. Villain just cocked their head, a mimicry of Leader’s confident smirk mirrored on Villain’s lips. A hand caught Leader’s, another grabbing their arm still pining Villain to the ground, and was yanked back off of them.

For a single terrifying moment, Leader was suspended in the air from shock before their training kicked in. Leader threw their head back and found nothing but air. Eyes still on Villain as they slowly got to their feet, Villain’s eyes gleaming with a sick sort of glee.

Leader struggled furiously in the henchmen’s grip, but it was relentless. Every elbow Leader slammed backwards was met with resistance, subduing them until they quieted, feet on the ground taking in slow breaths as Villain stood. Villain stopped to pick up their knife, a pretty thing now that Leader could see it. Functional, deadly, and decorative — the exact things that Villain was made up of.

That Villain prided themselves on.

Villain stepped up to Leader, smile as deadly as the blade. “Can’t beat me on your own? You need your goons to do it for you?”

“I respect your skills too much to underestimate you,” said Villain honestly. Then their hand sliced up in a swift brutal arc and Leader suppressed a hiss as the warm blood started flowing down their face. “Now we match.”

There were shouts of protest from Leader’s team behind them. “I’m going to offer you a deal, dear Leader. In exchange for your precious little friends.”

“Go fuck yourself, Villain!” called Rogue from behind Leader, followed by a scuffle and a yell and a body hitting the ground.

Leader struggled harder against the bruising grip holding them back as Villain disappeared from sight. “Villain!” Leader called, the panic seeping into their voice. “Don’t touch them!”

Leader hooked their left leg in behind one of the henchmen’s and yanked it forward, tripping them. The henchmen was falling, grip loosened in surprise which Leader took to their advantage not wasting a second as they turned on the other one, punching them in the throat.

Leader hooked an arm around the henchmen’s neck and turned to face their group, their face going pale as they saw Villain standing in front of Rogue who was kneeling on the ground in front of them. Villain had Rogue’s dark hair in their grip and their pretty knife to Rogue’s throat, a smile on their face as they watched realisation dawn on Leader’s.

“Let him go,” Villain said and Leader obeyed. As soon as they did Villain’s henchmen turned and punched Leader before grabbing their arm again with both hands. The one on the floor stood and glared furiously at Leader, but just before he reached him Villain said: “hold on. Leave them free. Leader’s going to be a good little hero now for me, aren’t you?”

Leader swallowed thickly, eyes going to Medic and Sniper and their Second who shook their head slightly.

Telling them to fight.

To disobey.

To not give into Villain.

But they didn’t know Villain. The real Villain. Not like Leader knew them. So Leader relented, their shoulders sagging in defeat and Villain could have singed at the hopelessness on Leader’s face.

“Let them go,” Leader said, voice thick with emotion.

Villain’s smile grew into a toothy grin, “oh I intend to, Leader. Right after you get on your knees and surrender yourself to me, that’s the deal.”

“Leader don’t d—“ Rogue cried, but was cut off by the hilt of Villain’s knife slamming against their temple.

“How stupid are you, Rogue? I honestly expected you to gain some brain cells since the academy days.”

“You’re not taking Leader,” said Medic coldly. Villain pursed their lips at that. Leader had to suppress a laugh, of everyone in their group, Villain only hated one and that was Medic, because Medic always saw right through Villain’s smiles and lies.

Before the rest of them had realised what Villain was.

Villain glanced back at Leader and shrugged, going to slit Rogue’s throat and Leader lunged forward but was caught by the arms again. It wasn’t only Leader who jumped. There was a cacophony of struggle as Villain drew blood from Rogue’s neck. A small knick. Just enough to show who has the power on their side.

Their biggest strength was each other. Villain just realised it was their biggest weakness too.

Leader should have come alone. Like Villain asked, but deep down they knew that their team would never let them.

“All paying attention now? Yes?” Villain asked, humour drained from their voice. Villain was all business now. Threats bleeding into promises as the cat showed it’s claws. “Another interruption from the peanut gallery and I slit little Rogue’s throat.”

Rogue went to speak, and Villain lifted the blade under their chin and closed their mouth. “That includes you too, Roguey.”

“Okay we get it,” said Leader and Villain looked at them again with a shark like smile. The henchmen holding Leader let go and Leader stepped forward again.

“If you want the rest of them to get out of here alive,” said Villain, voice soft. “Then get on your knees.”

Leader just looked at Villain. They didn’t break their gaze, because they knew if they looked at one of their teammates they’d lose the nerve of what they needed to do.

Slowly, Leader sank to their knees. They hit the rough ground, humiliation burning their lungs, their chest, in their gut, but to their knees they went.

For their team.

A flash of silver and a pair of handcuffs landed heavy on the ground in front of leader and Second in command jerked forward before being wrestled into a forced calm.

“Put them on.”

A command like a dog. Like they knew Leader couldn’t refuse because they couldn’t. Not when Villain held Rogue like that. So tentatively Leader reached out and slapped a cuff loosely onto their wrist and was going to slap the other on but was interrupted by Villain again: “ah-ah. Behind your back, there’s a good little hero.”

Leader huffed a breath out their nose, their heart thumping beneath their chest, but they couldn’t not obey.

So Leader put their hands behind their back and slapped on the second cuff. Their eyes closed at the sound, like a judge’s gavel falling heavy on its podium.

Villain smirked, tossing Rogue aside and into the arms of one of Villain’s waiting henchmen, and advanced on Leader. Leader kept their eyes shut not wanting to look at Villain’s eyes. Not wanting to look at anyone.

Then a hand was on their chin, tilting their head up to look at Villain who stood above them. A knot tied in their throat that they tried to swallow down but couldn’t.

“Open your eyes, Leader.”

And Leader obeyed.

Trying to force every ounce of hatred into their glare. The grip tightened on their chin as Villain’s gaze turned hungry.

“Didn’t I tell you you’d look perfect on your knees,” said Villain, quiet enough so only leader could hear.

“Go fuck yourself Villain,” was the reply but there was no real bite in it.

Villain laughed. “We’ll have to work on your foul mouth, but we’ll have plenty of time for that.”

Villain’s eyes flicked up to the henchmen behind leader. “Get him up.”

Leader was yanked to their feet by the arms, a hand covering the loose cuffs on their wrist and tightening them until they bit into Leader’s skin. Leader pulled at the chain but there was barely any give on it before the chain snapped taut.

Leader looked past Villain’s shoulder to see their teammates unconscious on the ground and they lunged at Villain before being caught by the wrists and held in place.

“You said you’d let them go!” Leader barked, panic lacing their voice.

“Relax, Leader. They’re just passed out. A little failsafe so your friends don’t try and follow you. I intend to keep you out of my way for a long time, Leader,” Villain said, putting a hand on Leader’s cheek. Leader recoiled, chest heaving up and down as they were dragged away from their unconscious and vulnerable teammates.

They had failed. They had failed them all. Leader was supposed to be strong enough to protect them!

Leader continued struggling the whole way, until a henchmen handed Villain one last syringe. Leader struggled more, but the henchmen holding them kept them still and arched their neck so Villain could plunge the needle into the side of their throat.

Leader hissed, but Villain hushed them as they thumbed the liquid into Leader’s bloodstream. The effect was instant. The world swaying. Colours bleeding into blurs as they stumbled forward a step.

“Nighty, night Leader. Save your strength. You’re gonna need it for the foreseeable future.”

The weight of the day crashed down on Leader and they let themselves be whisked away by whatever drug was knocking them out. Shutting down their body.

Leader’s eyes fluttered shut. The last thing they saw was Villain grinning down at them.

Whump Prompt #1167

Submitted by Anon - thanks!

The whumpee, the strongest member of the team who hates being weak, gets poisoned to the point of delirium in front of their teams eyes while they desperately look for a cure.

whump aesthetic 02:

when the leader doesn’t like showing others they’re hurt, because they believe it will be a sign of weakness or cause the team to lose confidence in them, so their injuries and bandages are always covered up on missions-by armor or baggy clothing that hides it all.

however, as time goes on and leader becomes more comfortable with the team, the team walks into base to find leader sprawled out on the couch wearing a soft t-shirt and shorts that leaves their scars, braces and bandages on display.

Whump ABC #16 - Panic Attack

Based on the results of this poll.

_

Team leader finds themself sitting in front of the door they barely were able to close behind them before they broke down. Everything and nothing is flooding their system, their heart races against their chest, so fast that it almost hurts.

They look at their shaky hands as their chest rises and falls in an unsteady and fast rhythm. It feels like someone is trying to strangulate them, not enough air getting into their lungs, rather getting pressed out of them because of their panicked breathing.

This job was too much, they knew that from the beginning. But now their body tries to give them an even worse reminder that they shouldn't have accepted it, that they should've stayed away from this. Now everything feel every last bit of control run out of their hands like sand.

Sweat and goosebumps battle against each other on team leader's skin, making them feel sick. Their fingers tingle as they try to hide their face behind their hands. Control. They are losing control ... Team leader feels like falling into a pit of despair, their body at the brink of exhaustion from the panic that won't let the thoughts shut up.

It's too much. It's too much...

Tw: Character Death | Forced to Watch | Team Whump

Whumpee's heart shattered as they helplessly witnessed the gruesome scene unfold before them.

Their friend's life slipping away, the world around them dissolved into a nightmarish blur of anguish and despair.

Tears streamed down their face, mingling with the anguish etched across their features.

Team Leader's grip, though gentle, felt like a vise around Whumpee's chest, keeping them firmly in place.

Whumpee's screams echoed in the air, their throat raw from the torment of witnessing the unthinkable.

Desperation clawed at their soul as they futilely dug their fingers into Team Leader's arm, a desperate attempt to break free and save their friend.

But as Team Leader's voice trembled with sadness, they whispered the painful truth, a truth that struck Whumpee's heart like a steel blade.

"Whumpee," they murmured softly, "You... you can't do anything for them..."

The agony of those words pierced through Whumpee's very being.

Their body trembled with sorrow, their eyes locked onto the lifeless form of their dearest friend, and in that heart-wrenching moment, the reality of their loss became unbearable.

"They're gone," Team Leader's voice quivered with heartbreak, echoing the immense sadness that engulfed them all.

Just imagining Team Leader whumpee who has had a particularly bad day and Team knows it, so some of the Team Members go over to their place to check in on them. They knock and there’s no answer so they try the door and it’s open. They walk in and find Team Leader just blasting music and getting cross-faded, absolutely out of it. And that’s when Team realizes just how much of an effect things have on Team Leader.

Forced to Choose

"Open your mouth."

Leader's only response was to tighten his jaw muscles further.

"I won't ask again."

Leader's gaze shifted from the teammate kneeling opposite him to the gun levelled at his head. He stared at the barrel for several seconds before complying, though not without glaring up at Whumper.

Appearing menacing as Whumper slid the gun into his mouth was a lost effort, but there was no chance in hell he was giving Whumper the satisfaction of his full submission. But there was no disillusion of who held the power here.

"I'll make this simple." Gravel crunched under Whumper's boot as he stepped behind Leader, shifting his attention to the other captive.

"Tell me where the base is...or I blow his brains out."

Leader forced his face to stay neutral, not wanting Youngest to see him crumble. Nonetheless, he failed to suppress a shudder, his breath hitching as the cold metal bit into his skin, scraping against the roof of his mouth.

"Please don't...don't make me choose," Youngest pleaded, a tear glinting in their eyes as the gun cocked with a distinctive click.

Wanting to reassure Youngest it was okay, Leader gave as much of a nod as he could manage, already knowing what decision they'd have to make.

okay okay so I had a dream about a robin hood-style band of outlaws who were captured in a group by royal guards.

The leader was interrogated in front of his men by having arrows driven into his legs, which were then tugged on and moved around while embedded there to cause more pain and damage. When threatened to have it done to his arms too, he cracked, spilling vital information/confessing to the group's crimes in front of his men.

The rest of the outlaws were pretty pissed off, and shunned him, even when he was begging for help/water after the guards left.

#it was very Neat! #i also remember them tying strings to the arrows and pulling them around but idr why exactly or what that didnthat tugging didn't #but as a result have a non-dream idea: #impaling his arms/wrists with arrows as well then tying rope to them and making him dance like a puppet :D #<<if i was writing this that would be the exact threat they'd use to crack him #dream log #whump dream #fantasy whump #team leader whump #torture #betrayal #whump prompt

I'll do anything to keep you safe.

A whispered assurance to a shaking Youngest, clinging to Leader's shirt after a failed mission. They'd nearly been caught, saved only by a lucky shot made by Leader.

I'll do anything to keep you safe.

Said with a determined set to their jaw to Teammate before embarking on a risky solo trip to steal some much needed medicine for their infection. Without it, Teammate may have died.

I'll do anything to keep you safe.

A meek excuse as Medic grumbled and cleaned the wound, asking Leader why they weren't brought along on the mission. Medic had just recovered from their own injury, and Leader wanted them to rest a little longer.

I'll do anything to keep you safe.

A final promise to Right Hand, someone they considered their sibling. Right Hand, who had a clear view in their cell of Teammate, Medic, and Youngest being escorted by guards at the start of their trip to the border for their exile, and Leader's mangled corpse in a gibbet, swaying gently with the wind.
