    Summary

    In which I - a writer who has never attempted whump, and is actively drowning in college - attempt Whumptober.

    This will be mostly Bug Fables, but may pull from Worldless on some prompts. This will also only include prompts for which I do writing. Some will be art and thus posted elsewhere.

    Edit: This work contains prompts for days one (beg for forgiveness), three (isolation/found family), and seven (elevator/pushed beyond breaking point). After that I decided to start posting them as separate works in a series so the tags weren't a giant confusing soup. Tag distribution is as follows:
    - Day 1: Astotheles/Isau, Minor Character Death, Hurt no comfort
    - Day 3: Astotheles, Hurt/Comfort
    - Day 7: Kabbu, Implied/Referenced Mind Control

    Summary

    In Kur, Team Snakemouth was killed and Hoaxe ruled Bugaria with iron hands of tyranny, all eight chapters showing the hopeless despair from the dictator.

    But what if, Team Snakemouth was still alive? What if Kabbu was left alone to die in the final fight? What if Kabbu survived? How different the story will be compared to Kur with the flames of rebellion in the horizon with his spark?

    I bid you welcome to Dilmun, an alteration of 'Kur' when one small differences changes the entire outcome of Kur, creating a new tale.

    Summary

    Astotheles figured that if he extended an olive branch to the Ant Kingdom and helped them out with their mission, they might pay the favor back and help his people.

    Mothiva needed to spring back after her blowup with Zasp, and if she could nab one of the artifacts, it'd secure her position in the Explorer's Association and the fame that comes with it.

    Hoaxe found himself fighting for survival, exiled from the only home he had ever been accepted in after a plan to improve his life and get the respect of his peers went awry.

    And the Ant Kingdom shuddered as it realized that its best hope of finding the Everlasting Sapling lay in the hands of a bandit, a diva, and a sneaky little mimic.

    Summary

    Pheromone assault is considered a serious crime in Bugaria and with good reason: pheromones can cause even the nicest of bugs to lose all sense of self and personality, and become utterly subservient to the whims of the one controlling them, even if it means attacking their friends and loved ones with the intent to grievously harm or even kill. And then there is the chance of causing one afflicted with pheromones to become uncontrollably... aroused.

    When Kabbu is forced to fight Vi and Leif over a broken vase and his pre-Awakening mating drive is unintentionally triggered, the beetle finds himself struggling to cope. Burdened by guilt, past trauma, a crushing secret, and a love he feels he cannot share, Kabbu can only see himself spiralling downwards. If only he knew that his hidden affections were being reciprocated with just as much secrecy, by someone who has no idea how to deal with such feelings. If only both could get past their denial and their guilt. And yet Team Snakemouth have faced many challenges together before and their bonds have remained resolute. They will not allow this to be any different.

    Summary

    Following the disappearance of the Infection from Hallownest, a routine patrol brings Hornet to Hallownest's Crown — where she is assailed by a trio of unknown bugs with sinister intentions. Kidnapped and brought far above the tunnels of Hallownest, she soon finds herself stranded in a world of perpetual light and open sky, far from the dark and subterranean home she has always known.

    Meanwhile, the kingdoms of Bugaria grow restless, with reports of a powerful cult becoming active on their borders. As Kabbu, Leif, and Vi set out to investigate, they find themselves wrapped in a conflict that may threaten the hard-fought peace of all the four kingdoms. And who is this strange masked bug, who wields silk and needle deadlier than any sword?

    Summary

    The feeling of being lost is an odd sensation.

    It doesn't really matter if it stems from lack of purpose, lack of individuality, lack of understanding, or simply not knowing where the flippin' heck you are.

    Variants of said feeling can be caused by boredom, betrayal, puzzles, love, existential crises, video games, etcetera.

    Anyway, I bring this up because in this story, MANY of the culprits of that feeling all come together to screw one specific person over, and that's exactly how our narrative will begin.

    Disclaimer! This story may or may not use characters, species, locations, and concepts that belong to the following games. I do not own them, I just like them, hence why I am making them a story.

    Hollow Knight,
    Ori,
    Bug Fables,

    You may receive spoilers for these games in the process, most specifically later in the story.

    There Will be OCs. I will mention if a character is an OC at the end of each chapter, if there are any new ones introduced.

    (Please do not sue me deciding to publicly share the bigger space I gave my thoughts, Thanks)

    Summary

    It had been a fair bit of time since the legend of the everlasting Sapling was discovered. That day, the Wasp King, the foul usurper, was defeated by brave explorers. It was the story sure to become a legend or be put to play one day. For Bugaria came the time of peace, cooperation, and development. The time to get some well-deserved rest.

    Or... so they thought. As bellow Bugarians, almost right beneath their feet, an ancient kingdom was roused from its slumber. The soothing serenade of mind-rendering gale has stopped, and the stagnant carcass of the lands once called Hallownest was once more open to the world. But be warry a traveler who sets foot there, as with riches, mysteries, and legends of the devastated kingdom to you might come its traps, tragedies, and horrors.

    A new adventure beckons, but first, Bugaria has to greet some new guests.
