"Gimme...just one second, okay?" the villain asked. They coughed up blood, felt it trickle down their throat. It was warm and thick and the villain truly believed they could never get used to that feeling, even if that wasn't the case. They couldn't get rid of the hope either. The hope, the desperate and dumb hope that all of this could end one day.

"You're awake..." the hero said, their voice not even above a whisper. It was sort of comical how their lips curled into a sweet smile. Their relief warmed the villain's totally failing heart. They kneeled beside them and their hand found the villain's dislocated shoulder. "I really thought this was it."

"You're way too optimistic," the villain said. They were choking on their own blood, drowning in it. It was madness.

"You're way too dramatic," the hero answered. They pushed some hair out of the villain's face. Soft fingers touched bruises and cuts. The villain couldn't tell if it was a gift or another cruelty from the universe. Seeing the hero, feeling their touch. The villain had hated them for years.

Had loathed their perfect teeth, their bright smile. Their dumb comments.

"If I asked you..."

"Yes," the hero said. "I would say no."

The villain let out a long and laboured breath. But the hero had broken into their heart of concrete, had managed to make the villain smile even on bad days.

"It would put my mind at ease."

"You would suffer," the hero said. "And I like to avoid that."

Something popped in the villain's torso and the familiar feeling of a rib snapping back into place overwhelmed them a little. They could never get rid of this curse.

"But what if I never die?" they asked. They squeezed the hero's hand as the cut on their arm healed. It was painful and even more annoying than being sliced open.

"Why won't you see this as a blessing? Think about all the things you can accomplish. All the subjects you can study. All the people you'll get to know."

Again, the hero's hand touched their cheek gently, as if the villain could break any second.

"And what about the people I will lose? What about you?" The villain spit out some blood and sat up, their body slowly getting all its functions back. "What if you grow old alone and I have to watch? Has it ever occurred to you that I want to do that with you?"

"Believe it or not but life expectancy among heroes is pretty low," the hero said, smiling sadly.

"God, then please just try it. Shoot me, cut my head off, whatever..."

"I am not going to do that," the hero said. They kissed the villain's forehead. "It isn't easy for me either. I want a long life. You don't want eternity. We don't get what we want."

"I have to protect you, then," the villain decided. "And find a way to heal like a normal person. I need to do experiments, I need to-"

"My love."

"-find a way to injure myself without healing within seconds. I need to find my weakness, I need to find something, anything-"

"My love." The villain stopped and stared at their hero. "It's alright."

"No. But I will make it alright."

That was also some sort of madness.

The wildest ep of the Macgyver reboot

Sometimes I think fondly about Macgyver (2016) season 3 episode 13 Wilderness + Training + Survival....and how absolutely batshit this episode was. If the creators had decided to confidently maintain these chaos levels, I think the show would have been better and had a longer run in general (but that's just my opinion).

Some random insane details that got fully brushed over but make me lose my mind every time:

Mac actively choosing to bring no emergency supplies out of pure god complex.

That time the bad guy leader tore Mac's beanie off and grabbed him by the hair sexual-style. Absolutely no other character has thought to grab Mac by the hair in the original show or the reboot like wtf

EDIT I've been reminded by some friendly reblogs that hair-pulling happens in a couple other episodes. Regardless, it cracks me up every single time. The guy seems to do it out of pure frustration and that is so funny to me.

Riley wearing acrylics into the wilderness

The bad guy just up and massacred his entire squad so he wouldn't have to share the money. Like he just shot them all in cold blood. That's some GOT shit.

Mac getting shot in the thigh from like two inches away and not having his entire femur shattered.

Riley and Bozer running into a clearing scattered with dead bodies?? With Mac bleeding out (?) in the middle?? No questions asked.

At least two of the bad guys were SEVERELY injured and they just got left to die in the absolute middle of nowhere after all that emphasis on how dangerous the wilderness is lmfao

RILEY WEARING ACRYLICS INTO THE WILDERNESS

Bozer being totally confused by the word yarrow implying that he did literally none of the reading.

That one guy who was blinded by burning poison oak and left to die in the woods

Mac doing math and science word problems outloud while a group of murdering criminals stare at him in confusion

Why did he have a random hillbilly friend in the mountains

Why did he suddenly have a pickup truck for the occasion

anyway i miss Macgyver and i wish it would come back RIP ok bye

Zodiac Signs & Whump!

This is just a fun silly lil’ poll, nothing serious! I’m just wondering which of the signs is most into whump, or if there are a couple/few signs predominantly into whump. The term “whump” here is all encompassing, it can be whatever type of whump, nothing in particular!

*I will also be doing a poll of MBTI types & whump after this one!

kdrama whump recs: found family/team as family edition

Found family/team as family is my favorite trope, and when it’s combined with whump it’s even better! So, without further ado, here are some of my favorite whumpy kdramas featuring these tropes! (This list is not a ranking!)

1. The Uncanny Counter (2021)

Age Rating: TV-14

Synopsis: So Mun is an orphaned high-school student who suddenly gains supernatural powers. Soon after, the local noodle-shop employees recruit him into their team of “Counters”, where he begins to learn of the evil spirits roaming around town. 

Notes: This was actually my first-ever kdrama! It’s a great blend of action, drama, and comedy. It also has one of the most unique “magic” systems I’ve seen, with the “Counters” each connected to a spirit in the afterlife. It’s also extremely whumpy, with a lot of comfort and care given to the characters. Definitely recommend.

 Here is a whumplist by @love-me-a-lotta-whump

Here is a whumplist for Season 2!

_____________________________________________________

2. Bulgasal: Immortal Souls (2021)

Age Rating: TV-MA

Synopsis: Dan Hwal has lived for the past 600 years as a Bulgasal—a mythical creature that feeds off human blood and is cursed with immortality. Eventually, he connects with his reincarnated family, along with a formerly immortal woman. 

Notes: This show is pretty complex and can get confusing at times. It’s also heartbreaking, but the characters make up for it! There’s a TON of whump for both characters shown in the GIF above. 

Here is a whumplist by @love-me-a-lotta-whump

_____________________________________________________

3. Mystic Pop-Up Bar (2020)

Age Rating: TV-MA

Synopsis: Han Kang-bae is a young man with the ability to make people confess their deepest troubles with a single touch, but this power isn’t always a gift to him. One night, he meets the mysterious owner of a pop-up bar, a woman who must settle the grudges of 100,000 souls in order to gain a peaceful place in the afterlife. 

Notes: This show isn’t the most whumpy on this list by any means, but it still has a good amount! What stood out to me were the relationships between the main trio of characters and how close they become with each other over the course of the show. No spoilers here, but this drama does involve reincarnation... 

Here is a whumplist by @whumperfect

_____________________________________________________

4. While You Were Sleeping (2017)

Age Rating: TV-14

Synopsis: Three young adults discover that they all have the same ability: seeing the future in their dreams. As a trio, they work together to attempt to change these (sometimes terrible) visions and save each other from harm. 

Notes: Though this show is more focused on the romance between Jae-chan and Hong-joo, there are some great moments of found family feels between the main trio, sometimes including Jae-chan’s little brother and a different character who somewhat acts as a father figure. Pretty whumpy show that I absolutely adored watching! (Plus, the cast is STELLAR! I mean, Suzy, Jong-suk, and Jae-in together in a drama? It’s so good.)

Here is a whumplist by @whumpalot

_____________________________________________________

5. Tomorrow (2022)

Age Rating: TV-MA

Synopsis: Choi Jun-woong is a young man struggling to find a job, but when he falls into a coma after an unfortunate accident, he’s offered a place on the Risk Management Team as a temporary grim reaper. Together, they help save people from s*icide.

Notes: Possibly my most favorite kdrama ever! It has more emotional whump than physical for the most part, but it’s so amazingly done. The main trio (plus another character, later in the show) have such great platonic chemistry, and even though they have conflicts, you can tell they all truly care for each other even after a short amount of time. (Rowoon’s acting talents are really highlighted in this show, as well as the other main leads!)

Here is a whumplist I made! 

_____________________________________________________

6. The Devil Judge (2021)

Age Rating: TV-14

Synopsis: This series is set in a dystopian version of South Korea, where the people live in chaos and corruption runs rampant. Trials are held through a courtroom live show aired on television, led by "The Devil Judge”.

Notes: This show is very dark, but has an interesting dynamic between the characters that evolves and grows over the course of the show. The characters are complex and imperfect, and though their conflicts are intense, it just makes the domestic moments so much better because of it. It has some good whump for the two main characters, and of course, Jin-young is an added bonus.

Here is a whumplist by @whumpslist​

_____________________________________________________

7. He is Psychometric (2019)

Age Rating: TV-14 

Synopsis: Lee Ahn is a young man with the ability to read the memories of any object or person he touches. He begins to train his powers in order to help solve crimes and get justice for the death of his parents. 

Notes: One of my favorite kdramas ever and a must-watch for anyone in the kdrama whump community. Fair warning, this show will absolutely shatter your heart, but it has such a great storyline with many twists and turns. This is a complex found family, and though the show does have a romance, it’s a really good one. Also, there’s SO MUCH WHUMP! Like in every single episode. It’s truly amazing. Jin-young never fails to amaze me with his acting. 

Here is a whumplist by @love-me-a-lotta-whump

_____________________________________________________

Alright, that’s the end of the list (at least for now)! If you have any recommendations for more whumpy found family/team as family kdramas, please comment them or send me them! <3

Guys if you like angsty/whumpy quotes, here’s a great one from Voyager (Outlander):

“It had been visions of revenge that kept him tossing in his bed as the window lightened and the rain pattered on the sill; thoughts of Fraser confined to a tiny cell of freezing stone, kept naked through the winter nights, fed on slops, stripped and flogged in the courtyard of the prison. All that arrogant power humbled, reduced to groveling misery, dependent solely on his word for a moment’s relief.”

(For context, John Grey had become warden of a prisoner of war prison, where Fraser was kept. 10 years prior, Fraser spared Grey’s life, but also humiliated him both in front of his own soldiers and his enemy’s, causing him to be outcasted by pretty much everyone in his platoon for a while.)

For what it’s worth, he didn’t actually end up being a bad warden, and they ended up being friends :)

Okay guys, in my Tumblr absence I finished a semester of college and read a couple books, this was one of them…

And what the fuck. I’m still thinking about it because there’s so much I don’t understand. If you have read this book, tell me your favorite theory if you have one! I still can't put all the pieces together and figure out if the “Penpal” is supposed to be someone in particular, or just a rando! 🥲

(P.S. I’m still writing, don’t worry, shit has just been crazy, and I haven’t had the brain power or time to dedicate getting in the writing zone. I know it’s been about two months since my last Aid chapter post, but I promise you I have been working a lot behind the scenes and got a fatty chapter to release!)

Everyone!

If you haven’t seen it already you all should go watch No. 6 ! It’s a good short anime (11 episodes) and has quite a bit of whump!

(this post will contain some spoilers)

i don't have a full whump list bc i was watching and not writing down the whump moments but here’s some things i remember!

the first episode already starts off with one of the main characters (rat/nezumi) getting shot while he escapes this 'correctional facility' and the other main character (shion) treats his wound. he also has a fever (but it’s not made visible, only noted by shion that he's 'burning up')

in another episode shion panics bc he realizes he has a parasitic wasp inside of him that will kill him so he makes nezumi cut it out of him before he dies (shion changes appearance due to this)

in a later episode shion also almost has a panic attack and he also throws up

in the 10th episode (i think) nezumi gets shot twice (in the arm and leg) and shion bandages him up with his clothes

then in the last episode i believe rat gets shot again (in the torso) and he almost dies while shion kinda performs impromptu field surgery on him, he also carries him on his back to get him out

later shion gets shot in the chest and he actually dies (but spoiler alert he comes back to life and they both 'magically' heal and then the nice whump is already over sigh)

#hellooo it's me #whump #whump talk #anime #no 6 #it's nice #whumpy #unfortunately the whump never lasts long #but it’s still a good watch #i enjoyed it #food for the whump community #post contains spoilers !!

Blipping Back to the Future

Summary:

Everything happened so fast, Peter truly doesn’t remember exactly how they got to the hospital. One minute, Dr. Strange was at Tony’s side, then he was tossing a change of clothes Peter’s way—which he still has no idea how he got in the middle of the crumbled remains of the Avenger’s Compound but he’s grateful for them so his identity doesn’t get blown—and the next, they’re stepping out of a portal inside of a hospital’s ER.

Peter followed closely behind Pepper and Rhodey as a team of nurses wheeled Tony towards the ICU double doors, only to be stopped by a nurse when she noticed Peter following.

The nurse put a hand on his shoulder, stopping him as she looked at him with a mixture of concern and worry at the sight of his face. “Family only beyond this point.”

“But I’m-“ Peter tried, but the nurse shook her head.

“Family only.” She repeated in a finalizing tone.

As they wheeled Tony into the ICU through the double doors, Peter managed to catch a glimpse of the uninjured side of his face before the doors closed, completely blocking Peter off from him.

Link to read on AO3:

Peter splashes cold water on his face to clean all of the dirt and blood off, watching it all swirl around in the sink’s drain before it goes down. He blinks a few times, droplets of water falling from his eyelashes as he turns the water off, standing a little straighter to look at his reflection in the small mirror hanging on the wall.

He looks like shit.

Bruises and cuts litter his face and he can see the beginning of a black eye forming around the corner of his right eye judging by how red and puffy it is. The fight against Thanos and his army really did a number on him. His whole body aches terribly, especially in his arms and legs, and not to mention the horrible headache he has from all of the blows he took to the head.

But he could care less about himself right now.

All he cares about it Tony.

Peter feels his chest tighten at the thought of him, a flash of Tony’s injured and burnt face coming to the forefront of his mind as he lay on the battlefield after using the Infinity Stones, moments away from dying right there. He can almost still feel Tony’s hand, desperately squeezing his wrist when Peter had stayed at his side in the rubble where he was laying… dying.

Everything happened so fast, Peter truly doesn’t remember exactly how they got to the hospital. One minute, Dr. Strange was at Tony’s side, then he was tossing a change of clothes Peter’s way—which he still has no idea how he got in the middle of the crumbled remains of the Avenger’s Compound but he’s grateful for them so his identity doesn’t get blown—and the next, they’re stepping out of a portal inside of a hospital’s ER.

Peter followed closely behind Pepper and Rhodey as a team of nurses wheeled Tony towards the ICU double doors, only to be stopped by a nurse when she noticed Peter following.

The nurse put a hand on his shoulder, causing him to flinch, stopping him as she looked at him with a mixture of concern and worry at the sight of his face. “Family only beyond this point.”

“But I’m-“ Peter tried, but the nurse shook her head.

“Family only.” She repeated in a finalizing tone.

As they wheeled Tony into the ICU through the double doors, Peter managed to catch a glimpse of the uninjured side of his face before the doors closed, completely blocking Peter off from him.

That was two hours ago.

The only thing Peter has been able to do is sit around in the waiting room for any updates on Tony’s condition. He knows Pepper and Rhodey must be too consumed with everything going on with Tony to come out to update him and the nurses and doctors are too busy too—not that they would update him anyway. He’s not related to Tony, at least not biologically.

Or maybe there isn’t any news because Tony… didn’t make it.

Peter squeezes his eyes shut at the terrible thought as he grips the edges of the sink, feeling sharp spikes of pain in his hands.

Tony is strong.

He’s going to make it.

He has to.

Breathing out a long breath through his nose, Peter lets go of the sink as he opens his eyes back up and reaches for a paper towel from he dispenser on the wall, drying his face, wincing at the horribly rough material rubbing against his sensitive skin. When he’s finished, he turns around and heads back to the bathroom door and opens it, being met with loud voices, beeping machines. Doctors and nurses rush through the crowded hallways, tending to patients left and right, now that they have more patients on their hands with  so many people returning from Thanos’s snap.

It’s honestly absolute chaos.

Peter carefully walks through the hallway, stepping around people and avoiding bumping into anyone as he heads back over to the waiting area. More seats have opened up in the past twenty minutes he’s been in the bathroom, which he’s grateful for. Peter heads over to the corner of the waiting area, choosing a seat with the ICU doors in his sight. He sits down and stuffs his hands into the front pocket of the hoodie he’s wearing, biting the inside of his lower lip as he watches the set of metallic double doors.

And to make matters even worse… he doesn’t even know where May is. He had tried calling her on one of the hospital’s phones earlier but he only got an automated message that said the number was no longer in service. He would have gone out to look for her but they’re in a hospital somewhere Upstate… he couldn’t leave, just in case anyone came looking for him with any news on Tony.

Did May crumble to dust like he had on Titan? If she did… where is she now? She must be so scared and confused. But what if she didn’t? Where is she now? Is she even still alive?

Peter swallows past the lump slowly forming in his throat, willing himself not to break down into tears. He’s lost so many people in his life, first with his parents, and Uncle Ben… he can’t lose Tony and May too.

He just can’t.

��

It feels like hours pass by as he sits in the waiting area, watching doctors and nurses passing through the ICU doors, but no one glances his way. He still doesn’t know how Tony is doing or… if he’s even still alive. Peter has never felt so lost, alone and scared before in his whole life. At some point, he gave up on holding back his tears any longer, feeling the occasional one slip down his cheeks.

Peter lets out a shaky sigh as he brings his legs up to his chest on the uncomfortable chair and rests his forehead on his knees, keeping his arms close to his chest. All he wants, more than anything in the world, is for Tony to make it and for May to be alright.

More tears slide down his cheeks as he squeezes his eyes shut. He’s so tired, hungry and sore, Peter wishes he could lie down and sleep. His head is throbbing so much and so hard, it feels like it’s going to burst at any minute.

He wishes that he could go home. He wants to be in May’s ams in one of her tight, warm, comforting hugs and for her to tell him everything’s going to be okay.

He wishes that Thanos never got the horrible idea to wipe out half the universe to begin with and none of this would have happened.

Tony would have been okay right now and Peter and May would probably be at home right now, watching reruns of their favorite shows while eating Tai take-out for dinner.

“-anything you can tell me? I am—yes--“ Peter’s enhanced ears suddenly pick up on a familiar voice.

He opens his teary eyes and raises his head, squinting against the bright LED lights around him. His eyes scan the large space around him at all of the people, until his eyes land on a tall figure standing at the nurses station across the room.

“—Yes—I got a call that he was in the ICU—anything you can tell me?” Peter overhears the person saying, his eyes widening in realization.

He knows that voice.

He would know it anywhere.

Peter throws his legs down to the floor and quickly stands up, ignoring the way his body painfully protests against the movement. He walks out of the waiting area and across the hallway, stepping around people as he gets closer to the person, who he can’t get a good look at yet with all of the people standing around.

“I can call the room for you to see if we can get you in there,” He hears a woman at the nurse’s station say. “What’s your name, sir?”

Peter manages to get through the crowd of people and is now able to see the side profile of the person standing only a few feet away from him.

“H-Happy?” He calls out.

Happy turns his head with a frown and when he sees him standing there, his eyes widen in either shock or surprise. It takes him a few seconds before Happy blinks, he moves away from the desk as he takes a few slow steps towards him.

Peter is now able to see new goatee Happy is sporting, one that he’s never seen before, as well as a few grey hairs in it. Happy still looks like himself but… just slightly older.

He didn’t get dusted. Peter suddenly realizes.

“Peter?” Happy asks in utter disbelief once he finds his voice, looking at him like he’s a ghost. “Is… is it really you?”

Peter manages a small, shaky smile as he nods. “Y-Yeah. It’s really me.”

Happy quickly rushes across the rest of the space separating them and before Peter knows it, a pair of strong arms are wrapping around him in a tight, warm hug.

“Oh my God,” Happy breathes out. “They did it. They actually did it. Thank God.” He says in a relieved voice, hugging Peter a little tighter.

Peter squeezes his eyes shut as he all but melts into Happy’s arms. For the first time tonight and after everything—coming back from being dusted by a mad titan, finding out he and half the universe have been dead for five years, fighting against said mad titan and his alien army, getting beaten to a pulp, and watching Tony snap the Infinity Stones and almost die right in front of him—he finally feels safe and not alone anymore. A sob escapes from Peter’s mouth as it all starts to truly sink in.

“I’ve got you, Pete,” Happy tells him in a reassuring voice, feeling his hand cup the back of his head. “I’ve got you.”

Peter feels more tears slide down his cheeks as he lets his head fall against Happy’s shoulder.

They stand there for quite some time, just long enough for Peter to run out of tears. Happy pulls away first and Peter can see that he was crying as well. The only time Peter can remember ever seeing him cry was when they watched The Rise of Skywalker together and Happy cried when Princess Leia died. And Peter can totally understand—he shed quite a few tears during that scene too.

But this time… it’s different.

“How did you get here? Are you okay? You look terrible, Pete.” Happy asks in a worried voice as he gently brushes a finger against his swollen, right eye.

“Yeah, I’m okay. Dr. Strange portaled me, Rhodey, Pepper and… and Tony here.”  

Happy’s brows pull together in confusion. “Dr. Who?”

“Oh—I’m sure you’ll meet him.”

“But how long have you been here? Have you been here by yourself? Why aren’t you in there with Pepper and Rhodey?” Happy asks worriedly, changing the question.

“Um… I-I wasn’t allowed to. I’m not… family,” Peter says before clearing his throat. “It’s been a few hours. I… I haven’t heard anything…” He trails off, swallowing hard.

Happy’s brows pull together in an angry frown. “That’s the furthest thing from the truth, Pete. You damn well should be in there and I’m going to make sure I fix that,” He says before he lets out a small sigh, his face relaxing. “Pepper called me a while ago and told me Tony was still in surgery.”

“Surgery?” Peter asks, is brows raising in concern.

“Yeah,” Happy sadly says with a nod. “She wasn’t able to fully explain the situation to me… but with how badly his arm is injured… the doctors are doing their best to save his arm. Dr. Cho is on her way now with her Cradle machine to hopefully help.”

Peter’s chest tightens at that. Yes, he knows that Tony is in bad shape after using the stones but… the thought never crossed his mind that it would cost Tony his arm. Tears begin to slowly pool in his eyes once again.

Happy places a reassuring hand on his shoulder, seeming to notice his mounting worry. “Tony’s going to be okay, Pete. You know how stubborn he is.”

Peter shakily nods, unable to speak with the lump growing in his throat.

“But for now, we should get you—“

“Uncle Happy?” A small voice suddenly says, interrupting him.

Peter looks down, only to see a little girl standing at Happy’s side. She looks at Peter with her all-too familiar brown eyes before she shyly moves closer to Happy, a little behind his legs to shield herself. Immediately upon looking at her, Peter can tell that she’s not Happy’s daughter. But who is she? And why is she with him?

“Morgan, I want to introduce you to someone very special,” Happy says in a soft voice, one Peter has never heard him use before, as he kneels down to her level. “Morgan, this is Peter,” he says before he looks up at Peter, smiling. “Peter, this is Morgan.”

Peter looks back at her, meeting her bright, brown eyes.

And that’s when it hits him, so suddenly like a slap to the face.

He would know those brown eyes anywhere.

Morgan… is Tony’s daughter.

As he realizes it, the more he’s able to pick up on Tony’s features in her small face. He already can tell that she’s also Pepper’s daughter, seeing features of her’s as well, like her nose and a few other things. But Morgan definitely looks like Tony.

Her father.

Peter stands there, too stunned to speak for a moment as he stares at her. "S-She's- Tony's-" He starts to ask but his voice somehow gets lost in his throat.

Happy nods with a knowing expression, the corner of his mouth turning up into a small smile. "Yeah."  

Peter blinks a few times at Happy before looking back at Morgan, forcing his achy knees to bend as he kneels down in front of her.

“H-Hi, Morgan.” He greets, feeling like his voice is lost in his throat.

“Hi,” Morgan shyly says, leaning against Happy. “Daddy told me you were gone for a long time… are you staying now?” She asks.

A cold shiver races down Peter’s spine at the question. He’s still not one hundred percent able to believe that he and half the universe was wiped out for five whole years. “Y-Yeah.” He answers, nodding as he forces himself to shakily smile.

Unless Thanos comes back.

Fear flows through him at the sudden, terrifying thought.

“Why don’t we head in to see what’s going on? I know that Pepper could use the company right now.” Happy asks, causing Peter to meet his eyes.

The only thing he can do is nod.

Happy stands up and Peter follows, wincing as pain radiates through his knees and legs from the movement. He can only imagine how banged up his legs are underneath the sweatpants he’s wearing. Happy bends down and picks Morgan up, holding her by his side as he starts to walk in the direction of the ICU double doors. Nerves pool in Peter’s stomach as he follows closely behind, feeling like he’s doing something wrong by going in with them.

“Family only.” The nurse’s voice from earlier echoes through his head.

Happy pushes one of the doors open with his free hand and steps inside but Peter stops, hesitating.

He shouldn’t go in.

He doesn’t have a right to.

“Family only.” The voice echoes once again.

And he’s not sure he can see Tony right now, as badly injured as he is and laying in a hospital bed, connected to a bunch of machines.

But all of the times he’s been hurt and sick himself, Tony has been there for him every single time, keeping a bedside vigil over him.

If Tony can do it for him, Peter can do it for Tony.

“Pete?” Happy’s voice takes him out of his thoughts, causing Peter to look up at him with wide eyes, meeting Happy’s concerned ones.

Peter swallows hard as he steps through the doorway. Happy offers him a knowing look as he wraps his free arm around his shoulder, leading him down the hallway. The hallway isn’t as crowded as outside, but it’s louder, somehow. Peter winces as his ears are bombarded with different sounds, hearing beeping heart monitors, the whooshing sounds of ventilators, people crying and coughing, and a lot of other horrible sounds. It almost makes him want to cover his ears with his hands to make it stop but he resists the urge as he forces himself to keep walking.

As they near the end of the hallway, Peter can see Rhodey standing outside of a room, looking in through the glass window by the door. He turns his head when he hears them coming and steps away from the window, looking very solemn.

“Hey.” Happy greets as he stops before the windows, probably so Morgan doesn’t see inside yet.

“Hey,” Rhodey greets back, sighing at the end. He looks at Morgan in Happy’s arms and offers her a small smile before he looks back at him, his smile dropping. “He just got out of surgery. Pepper’s in with him now.”

“How is he?” Happy asks with a concerned frown.

Rhodey lets out another sigh, worriedly glancing at Morgan, who has no idea what’s going on, before looking back at Happy. “It’s… too early to tell at this point. Pepper or I will fill you out later, but for now, why don’t I take Morgan down to the gift shop?”

“Can we get Daddy a teddy bear like Monty?” Morgan asks in a soft voice, seeming to perk up at the mention of the gift shop.

“I’m sure he’d like that a lot,” Rhodey say, offering her a smile as Happy passes her to him. “And maybe we can find a nice balloon too?” He asks her as he starts to walk back up the hallway where they came from.

Peter almost wants to follow them as dread continues to pool away in his stomach.

Happy takes a few steps over to the window and looks inside the room and Peter watches as his face falls, his brows pulling together. Peter forces himself to walk over and look inside the dimly lit room, his eyes landing on the hospital bed almost instantly.

The sight he’s met with causes Peter’s breath to be lost in his chest, feeling his eyes warm up with the promise of tears to come.

Tony is laying on the bed, connected to a bunch of beeping machines and an oxygen mask covering his face. His unnatural, ghostly pale skin stands out against the white sheets and dark bruises surrounding his face. Pepper is sitting in a chair beside the bed, looking at Tony with such a sad and heartbroken expression on her face, holding Tony’s uninjured hand.

Peter’s face pulls together as tears pool in his eyes, causing his vision to blur.

If he didn’t know any better… he would honestly think Tony is dead.

He feels Happy’s hand wrap around his shoulders again, gently rubbing his arm reassuringly. They both remain silent as they stand there for a few long, silent moments. He can see Pepper sitting in one of the chairs at Tony’s bedside, looking at them for a moment before she gets up and walks over, wiping tears from her eyes. She opens the door and steps out into the hallway, offering a small, sad smile to Peter and Happy.

“Oh, Peter.” She says as she reaches out and wraps her arms around him in a hug for a few long minutes before she pulls away and goes to Happy, hugging him as well.

“How’s he doing?” Happy gently asks as they pull away.

Pepper lets out a sigh as she wraps her arms around herself as she takes a look back inside the room through the glass window with a sad expression on her face before she looks back at them.  “He’s… he’s holding on. The doctors said it’s a miracle he’s…” she trails off, looking at Peter.

Peter feels his chest tighten again at her words.

It’s a miracle Tony’s still a live, is what she was going to say.

Pepper closes her eyes for a few seconds before she lets out a sigh. “Dr. Cho was able to save his arm—thank God. But he has a long road to recovery ahead of him.”

“H-He’s going to make it though, right?” Peter asks in a hesitant tone.

Pepper looks unsure how to answer his question for a moment as she stands there. "I…I don’t know. I truly hope so. But… his body has taken on so much damage. The doctors are all saying that it’s too early to tell,” She says before reaching out and placing her hands on his shoulders, offering him a small, sad and knowing smile. “But Tony’s strong and you and I both know how stubborn he is.”

Peter nods but he’s unable to return her smile.

Not with the possibility lingering in the air of Tony not making it out of this.

Pepper’s brows pull together, her smile dropping. He can see her eyes starting to water up against the bright hallway lights.“And I just want to tell you, how truly sorry I am for you not being allowed to come with us into the ICU when we got here. I tried to have a nurse get you but I don’t think they could with how slammed they’ve been. Rhodey and I couldn’t leave to get you because we were taking to the doctors and—“

“It’s okay. I understand,” Peter gently interrupts her. “Your place is here and you couldn’t leave. I was okay.”

“Your place is here too, Peter. And I know that Tony would tell you the same thing right now. I can’t even put to words how much you mean to Tony—to all of us,” She tearfully says as she wraps her arms around him in another hug. “I’m so happy you’re back.”

Peter looks at the wall behind her, his brows pulling together at that. It feels like he had only been gone for a few minutes, only to wake up on Titan and find out that he’s been dead for five whole years.

It’s a lot to take in.

Too much, even.

But now with everything happening to Tony… Peter would give anything for him to be okay.

Peter closes his eyes and leans into her, letting himself sink in the warmth of the hug. They stand like that for a few long moments before Pepper is the first to pull away. She wetly sniffs, wiping her teary eyes.

“Do you want to see him?” She asks, looking between Peter and Happy.

Peter glances at Happy.

“You can go in first.” Happy tells him.

“A-Are you sure?” Peter asks unsurely, his stomach tightening.

He almost wants to ask Happy to go in with him.

“Yeah,” Happy says with a nod. “I think you need a minute with him.”

Peter wordlessly nods as he steps to the door, hesitating for a moment before he puts his hand on the cold handle and opens the door, stepping inside the dimly lit room. He blinks a few times to get his eyes adjusted to the lack of bright LED lights from the hallway as he slowly walks over to the bed. The room is eerily silent, save for the multiple beeping vital machines and the soft hissing of the oxygen mask covering Tony’s mouth and nose.

Tony’s face is motionless as Peter stands at the side of the hospital bed, looking down at him. His face is paler, up close, deep bruises littering his face. Bandages cover the right side of his face with angry red, damaged skin peeking out from underneath.

Peter swallows around the growing lump in his throat as he stands there, feeling a bunch of emotions running through him all at once. He remembers when he was six years old, standing at the front door watching his parents leave after they dropped him off with Ben and May. He recalls that horrible, unknowing and nervous feeling in the pit of his stomach as he watched his parents drive away… not knowing if they would ever return.

But they never did.

And right now, looking at Tony… Peter feels the same as when he did then, all of those years ago.

Tears well up in his eyes as he looks down at the man, who has over the years become way more than just a mentor to him. Tony has become a father to him, in every sense of the word.  

Peter reaches a hand out and gently places it on Tony’s, mindful of the IV in his hand. He doesn’t understand why Tony used those stupid stones. It could have been anyone else that used them to wipe Thanos and his army out. Why did it have to be Tony? Knowing Tony… it was probably the only option at the time and he knew it.

Whatever the reason… it’s not fair.

Tony has a life now—a wife and daughter—he shouldn’t be lying in this hospital bed right now, possibly dying.

He has so much more living to do—so many more things to accomplish.

It’s not fair.

Tears spill down Peter’s cheeks as he squeezes his eyes shut, his brows pulling together.

“I’m sorry, Tony.” Peter whispers, only to be met with the sound of the beeping machines and hissing oxygen in response.

…

Hours pass by and Peter hasn’t been able to leave Tony’s side, sitting in one of the chairs next to his hospital bed, refusing to sleep, even though his horribly achy body begs for it. Happy and Pepper have in the room a few times before stepping out to talk to doctors and to discuss the next steps of Tony’s revering process. Peter knows he should leave so he can go out and look for May, but he can’t find it in himself to leave Tony’s side.

“I’m going to make a few calls and see if I can get ahold of her. I’ll call her work, the apartment—I’ll even drive over there myself and look for her, Pete. Whatever you need, I’ll help. We’ll find her, okay?” Happy had said to him a while ago.

They tried calling her phone a few more times, only to get the same recording Peter got earlier that her phone number was no longer connected.

“I’ll have FRIDAY run facial ID scans for her. If she’s in the city and walks by a traffic camera, FRIDAY is going to know about it. We’ll find her. I promise.” Happy told him.

It’s been an hour since Happy left the room, leaving Peter alone with Tony. He finds himself wondering if this is how Tony has felt, all those times Peter’s been hurt and in the medbay.

It’s absolute torture.

The uncertainly and heavy tension in the air is almost suffocating.

But Tony’s silence is the worst part.

“I’m sorry I didn’t listen to you,” Peter says, breaking the silence of the room. He clears his throat from not speaking for so long. “I’m sorry I stayed on that spaceship when you told me to go home. I…I just wanted to help. But… I don’t regret it. I…I couldn’t leave you alone—to fight alone. I’m just sorry I wasn’t strong enough to rip that gauntlet away from… from him…from Thanos,” He says, almost unable to say the mad titan’s name. “If I was… none of this would have happened and all of those people… they wouldn’t have diedbecause of me. And you… you wouldn’t be in this situation right now.” Peter manages to get out, blinking more tears out of his eyes.

He’s met by more silence in response.

Peter hangs his head as he looks down at his hands, wetly sniffing as waves of guilt flow through him like an angry ocean during a hurricane.

I wish it had been me that used the stones. He thinks to himself.

From the day he became Spider-Man, all he’s managed to do is screw things up. First it was Ben’s death, screwing up on patrol, getting hurt countless times, ruining Liz’s life by getting her dad thrown in jail, messing up Tony’s life with how much he gets into trouble and stresses him out, and even Happy too. Happy never signed on to babysit him and it’s unfair that he’s had to all this time… well… all those years ago.

All Peter has done in his life is screw up.

Maybe… he could have righted those wrongs if he had acted quicker and spared Tony from all of this.

Tears slip down Peter’s cheeks as he sits there, guilt hanging over him like a dark cloud.

…

Consciousness slowly comes back to him as he feels a hand in his hair, slowly carding through it. For a moment, he thinks he’s at home in bed and it’s May’s fingers in his hair, waking him up for school.

Peter groans as he forces his heavy eyes open, slowly blinking a few times to clear his blurry vision before he realizes he fell asleep leaning on the edge of Tony’s hospital bed. No wonder why his back aches so much from the horrible, slouched position he’s in. He frowns, feeing the fingers in his hair, only to roll his head to the right, only for the air to leave his lungs.

Tony is awake and looking at him with an exhausted but fond expression on his face.

“Y-You’re up,” Peter says out loud in shock. “H-How long have you been up for?”

“A little while,” Tony tells him, his voice coming out a little raspy. “Didn’t want to wake you.”

Peter blinks at him in shock, a wave of emotions rushing over him but relief is the strongest one. His eyes start to water as he stares at Tony.

Tony manages a small, tired smile as he lifts his good arm and rests his hand against the side of Peter’s face. “I can’t believe you’re here… you’re actually here and this isn’t a dream.”

Peter blinks, feeling tears slide down his cheeks as he smiles, nodding. “I’m really here.” He tells him.

“You’re really here,” Tony repeats and Peter can see tears filling in his eyes as well. “Come here, kiddo.” He says as he drops his hand and holds it out in invitation for him.

Peter stands up from the chair, holding back a wince as his body painfully protests against the movement as he leans down and carefully lowers himself for Tony to wrap his arm around his back.

“You’re really here.” Tony whispers again in a tearful voice.

Peter lets his head rest against Tony’s chest and inhales the familiar and comforting scent of his cologne, even with the sterile hospital smells all around them.

…

Voices break through the darkness surrounding Peter, causing consciousness to slowly come back to him. Peter feels his face pull together, letting out a displeased groan from being woken up, although… he doesn’t remember falling back asleep.

Fingers card through his hair for a few long seconds and Peter can almost feel himself falling back to sleep from the calming sensation of it.

“Wakey, wakey, sleeping beauty.” A familiar, amused voice softly says from nearby.

Peter’s face pulls more together as he manages to crack his eyes open, blinking against the sudden onslaught of sunlight from the windows across the room. As his vision clears, he’s met with a face he feared he’d never see again.

“May!” He exclaims, his eyes widening in shock.

May smiles warmly at him and he can see the unshed tears in her eyes. She’s wearing her hair up in a messy bun, wearing a Stark industries sweatshirt with leggings. Peter carefully sits up, mindful of the wires Tony is attached to as May meets him halfway in a tight, warm hug. Relief flows through Peter in waves, so powerful, that he feels his chest tighten as his eyes fill up with tears.

“Oh, my baby…” May breathes out in relief. “I saw you on the news with those-those aliens… and then you went up into the ship. I-I didn’t know what to think a-and then I… I… crumbled into nothing,” May pauses for a minute, squeezing Peter a little tighter. “And when I came back, there were strangers in our apartment. Everything looked different. And they certainly were shocked and confused to see me there.”

“B-But how did you get here?” Peter asks, blinking tears out of his eyes as they pull away from each other.

“Happy found me—and just in the knick of time, too. I was so confused and I didn’t know where you were and then, boom. There was Happy, coming up the apartment stairs.” May says with a smile.

I’ll have to thank Happy later. I really owe him. Peter thinks to himself.

“But the important thing… is that we’re all here together.” May says.

“Yes.” Tony agrees in a relieved tone from behind Peter.

It’s honestly a miracle that they’re all here together. Peter honestly thought that Tony was going to die after everything he’s been through and May… he thought she was lost forever. But thankfully, neither of his fears came to light.

Everything is so messed up and confusing right now… but Peter knows that he’s going to be okay and get through it all with his family by his side.

And he’s going to be there for them too, every step of the way.

Humans (Leo Elster) Whumplist

Character: Leo Elster (played by Colin Morgan)

Age Rating: TV-14 (or 16+)

Show available on Prime Video

(The styling of this whumplist is inspired by @love-me-a-lotta-whump​ who has an amazing blog, go check them out!)

Genre: Sci-Fi, Found Family, Action, Dystopian, Ensemble

Synopsis: In a parallel present where the latest technology is a “Synth” (an eerily humanoid service robot), a struggling family purchases one of their own, only to find that there’s more to her than meets the eye. Meanwhile, a mysterious young man aims to reunite his family.

Note: This show is honestly amazing, but I have to warn y’all, it was canceled after Season 3 and never got a proper ending. It’s still a very enjoyable watch, and the whump is amazing. Colin Morgan gives an incredible performance as always, and Gemma Chan might be the highlight of this series. 

TW’s: If I have any younger followers, please be careful with this show if you aren’t older than 14. It gets very dark and deals with themes of s*icide and s*xual assault (both shown on-screen at points), and has some gore and violence. One of the main characters is forced into s*x work, and there are multiple scenes involving/referencing this (especially in season 1). There is also blood and gore, though it’s not as disturbing sometimes especially since most of it involves blue-blooded robots (who can be healed fairly easily). 

List Key:

bold = most whump, best whump, or favorite whump scenes
