Syncope’s Writing Masterpost
Hi, I’m Sync, and I write!
My non-writing account for memes and queer and autistic content is @spiderace.
I like angst, loss of consciousness and hurt/comfort, emphasis on comfort. I don’t care about the gender of participants, so different ones will occur. I’ll tag.
Always feel free to ask me about my characters or stories, anonymously or not. :)
If you like consensual BDSM with male subs there’s a fair amount of porn with plot on my AO3.

the end of my shift came and our line of customers conveniently dried up at the same time, my friend was finishing her last ring-up said to me "run. ill be right behind you" which was not intended to be dramatic but it reminded me how much i LOVE that phrase in whump adjacent stories
Yessss, that is such a good phrase!
Stuff I love seeing in tired characters (whump/writing ideas)
-Being so tired they’re barely cohesive but force themselves to stay awake for the sake of whatever they’re doing
-Mumbled or slurred words, snapping when they don’t mean to
-Holding back on rest so much it only becomes apparent when another character sees them and it dawns on them they are *not* okay
-Falling asleep mid sentence
-Staying in the same clothes for days, hair disheveled and messy
-Downing coffee or energy drinks as they’re the only thing that keeps them from passing out on the spot
-Falling asleep slumped over their work at a table or desk and waking to find a blanket over their shoulders from a worried caretaker
-Finally looking in a mirror and being startled by their own haggard appearance
(Will probably make more of these, but feel free to add!!)
Some IRL sleep deprivation experiences I’ve had:
- For makeup wearers, using makeup to cover dark, puffy eyes
- Minor fatigue hallucinations - thinking they see a coworker in peripheral vision and they turn around and say something to, as it turns out, no one
- Losing time where you’ve blanked out during activities - feeling like you’ve “teleported.” I’ve only had it for a few minutes, but people report being in their office and then suddenly in their car in the driveway with no intervening memory
- Emotional extremes: being very cranky and irritable, or crushingly sad, without warning
- Sometimes alternating with the above, being vaguely drunk and happy/indifferent to everything, or easily going off into giggle fits at inappropriate times (“tiredrunk”)
- Forgetting to eat until a sudden dizzy spell reminds you (which can easily result in staggering/losing balance or even fainting; I haven’t fainted but boy have I had to sit down suddenly)
- Repetitive thinking/getting stuck on something. You’re thinking “cats are gray and that’s okay” or something equally meaningless, over and over, almost ritualistically. You might even say it out loud at some point and have someone look at you like you’re crazy
Grgrgrgrr these are great! Thanks for these!

Wahh anyone got any good whump scenarios bouncing around their head that they’d like to share with the class?
A team member concealing an injury heroically helps pilot a plane or spaceship to safety. They tell the others they’ll be right behind them, but something about their tone seems off to Leader, who comes back to check and finds them sprawled in the doorway to the cockpit. They’re unconscious, pale, bleeding, and there was no sign of it five minutes ago that anyone could see. What does Leader do? Do they call everyone to help, or try to give the secretive member some dignity by treating them more discreetly?
whumper throws someone in whumpee’s cell. there’s a bag over their head and whumpee runs to the corner of the room, hiding from the mysterious figure.
the figure struggles against their binds and tries to shake the bag off their head. when they manage to get it off, they see whumpee and break into sobs.
“Whumpee?” they say, inching closer to them, “where are we?”
whumpee stares at them and leans closer, “Caretaker?”
