The choice game
(Tw: torture, betrayal, broken bones, forced to watch)
The rules are simple. Whumper gathers Leader and Whumpee in the same room. Every 20 minutes Leader gets to choose which one of them will be tortured next.
But what Whumpee doesn’t know, is it’s not a free choice at all. If Leader chooses Whumpee, then Whumpee gets whipped. If he chooses himself, Whumpee gets one of his bones broken. If he doesn’t choose at all or informs Whumpee about the game, Whumpee gets immadiatelly killed.
The only way to stop it is either by Whumpee’s death or by telling Whumper the information he wants.
From this place the ending can change depending on their personalities / how good relations Whumpee and Leader have.
—————
- Leader keeps choosing Whumpee to make him suffer less. But he can’t bare Whumpee’s heartbreaking crying for help. After multiple choices he breakes and begs Whumper to beat him instead. But rules are rules. Despite of Leader’s screams of protest, Whumpee’s leg gets broken.
(Works well when the Leader is also a Caretaker)
——————
- “I am not playing your games, Whumper”
“Oh, a reveal already? That’s a shame, you don’t really know how to have fun at all” He pulls Whumpee’s head back by his hair and exposes his neck. Presses the scalpel against his throat “Don’t look away now. It’s the consequence of your choice.”
Leader decides to not play at all. It’s a hard decision to make, but it’s the right one. He knows the instant death is a luxury while they are trapped by their torturer without any hope for escaping. There is nothing better than death waiting anyway.
Now it’s only on Leader to keep the informations safe and bare the interrogation alone. He showes he’s not the one to blackmail anyhow, because he’s ready to sacrifice it all.
———————
- Leader chooses himself right away to show Whumpee it’s a game. He doesn’t trust him enough to believe Whumpee wouldn’t spill the information while feeling betrayed. Also he won’t give Whumper the satisfaction of making them play by his rules.
“Looks like your precious Captain decided it’s worth to sacrifice your bones to make sure you shut up” Whumper laughts as the terror and realisation grows on Whumpee’s face. “Don’t worry, I will give you a choice too. Otherwise it wouldn’t be fair, right?” Whumper picks up a hammer from the corner of the room and then slowly approaches dragging it on the floor “Now, Whumpee. Your left leg or your right leg?”
———————-
- Leader trusts Whumpee and has Whumpee’s trust back. He’s completly calm about the information. The priority for Leader is to choose the less damage possible. So the interrogation keeps going with Whumpee being chosen over and over.
Whumper keeps on mocking Whumpee, while he’s sobbing and trembling in pain. “What’s that? Isn’t your Captain going to help you?” Whumper hitshim with a whip with all the strenght “Come on! Beg him or start talking! Beg him to help you!”
“Please sir! Please make it stop!”
“What do you say, Leader? Are you changing places?”
He doesn’t lift his eyes from the floor, as he responds coldly: “Continue”
***
After the interrogation ends / they get rescued, Whumpee confronts Leader first:
“I guessed it was arranged. I just thought I should play along to keep Whumper occupied for longer. Thank you for trusting me, sir”
