“You left everything behind and for what ? You had such a good life, you had everything everyone would dream of !”
The tension rose in the air and person B looked back with an expression of distrust, distress, and pure anger. With gritted teeth they take a jagged breath before clenching their fists.
“Well maybe it wasn’t as perfect as you thought it was ! Maybe it was hell on earth for MEandI had to escape !”
The sudden change in tone throws person A off guard as they find themselves flinching to the new, and very much aggressive tone. Their face temporarily softening before hiding away behind a thin curtain of false courage, ready to die on the hill they didn’t even stand for.
Prompt #40

Whump Dialogue
(Sarcastic/annoyed caretaker)
- “How many fingers?… Yes I’m serious! Shut up and answer the question!”
- “If even half of that blood is yours you need to sit down right now.”
- “Is it too much to ask for you to not get stabbed for five minutes!?”
- “Wow those bloodstained clothes really bring out your eyes… Of course I’m being sarcastic! Get over here and let me stitch you up!”
- “C’mon, you gotta work with me here. I’m not dragging your unconscious ass back by myself”
- “Y’know, I don’t really blame them. Your face is very punchable… especially when you glare at me like that..”
- “I may not be a doctor, but I’m pretty sure blood belongs on the inside.”
- “Okay, normally I’d laugh, but this is just getting ridiculous. Sit down before you pass out.”
- “Ah yes, how heroic of you to get shot in the side and puke all over my shoes. Next time could you just pull me out of the way like a normal person instead of jumping in front of the bullet?”
