When the whumpee gets out of the hospital after being rescued, and the caretaker takes them to stay over for a few days as they continue to recover. The caretaker getting the whumpee inside and onto the couch, then covering them in blankets and trying to make them comfortable. The caretaker’s dog coming over and curling up against the whumpee’s side, and the whumpee nearly crying as they reach down to pet them. The two of them falling asleep together, and the whumpee sleeping better than they have since they were rescued, finally feeling safe.
When the whumpee is finally rescued from the whumper, and they end up clinging to the caretaker, not even letting go as they get patched up. The caretaker just holding them close, gently maneuvering them to let the medics care for them without making them let go, and running gentle fingers through the whumpee’s hair to comfort them. The whumpee falling asleep as the medics work, and still clinging to the caretaker, hands gripping their shirt even while they sleep. The caretaker gently settling into bed with the whumpee after the medics are done, eventually falling asleep, and letting the whumpee cling to them all night, hoping it helps them feel safe.
When the whumpee is rescued from the whumper, and taken to a hospital to have their injuries treated. Them thinking that they’ll be alone when they wake up, but instead they wake up surrounded by their friends. The whumpee still being out of it enough to admit that they didn’t expect them to be there, and their friends immediately protesting that of course they were all there, they care about the whumpee. The whumpee breaking down crying, and their friends crowding around them and gently hugging them and petting their hair, doing their best not to hurt them as they try to comfort them.
