Part 2 of the arrow removal!! I really liked @alicewritingstories’sideaof the two Caretakers arguing so here they are Good thing Whumpee is out of it because dealing with pain plus shouting wouldn’t be a pleasing situation.
Reblog with a whump trope you like but don’t see often.
I just remembered another one: that trope where the group has to explore their loved one’s mindscape to save them and secret trauma is revealed in their memories
The plot allowing enough time for a newly disfigured character to process and grieve over their new appearance. Like in Spiderman 3:
The worst/best part is Peter did this to him, which adds that best-friends-do-permanent-damage-to-each-other-but-they-remain-good-friends layer. They could overcome that sense of betrayal, even if Harry ended up dying. I couldn’t find the exact GIF of Harry turning around to face Peter when they meet for the first time after the injury is caused, but man the pacing of that exact moment was great and agonizing.
