And you get to see the range of the actor. But for me, personally, I just like to see a hot guy suffer so the others can take care of him! Yes, I join the ranks of the rest of the weirdos!!
see my sig for our psuedo-official "definition" of what it means to whump to whump is what you do as a whumpER, and we're whumpers a couple of us are indeed SHAMELESS whumpers meaning we'll whump any and all characters that we like (though i do tend to make the exception that i DON'T whump anyone who looks 50+ )
so, er, this thread is for whumping shep either enjoying the whump on the show, or, if there's ain't enough there (or just because) whumping him ourselves

Whether or not Jack is supposed be 50+ in canon, RDA certainly is - and he whumps pretty good too
There is never enough whump on the show, and definately never enough comfort. IMHO, a lot of the whump that happens off the show (fanfic, forums etc.) is not just because the whumpage, per se', but because we need to see more comfort, more character interaction that shows that they're worried about each other, shows the fear and emotional hurt when one of their own is having a bad time of it. Even when it's just putting into words what we occaisionally get glimpses of in canon - we just need to make it real, because that makes the characters more real to us .
Just my two cents a little philosphical for this time on a saturady, but what can i say? see what you guys inspire in me?

I agree - never enough whump, and certainly not enough comfort!! One of the draws of the whump is seeing how the friends and co-workers react. We need to see infirmary scenes, need to see the whumpee wake up, need to see the friends watching and worrying. Hence, the need for fanfic! Thank goodness for fanfic!
We totally got gyped on the whump in Defiant One - there was so much potential but Shep was too much of a superman! I would have liked to have seen him not be able to get up and walk away from all he went through without help, and we should have gotten the pleasure of an infirmary scene or at least a reference to it beyond McKay's "you ok". Sigh. Guess beggars can't be choosers - we did get some whump.

*cough* my fanfic *cough*
*looks around innocently* What?
That's why its so fun to write fanfic, because you can take it farther the you know the writers would. I mean, lets face it, we know of someone was captured by the enemy, they wouldn't be all nice to them. They would definitely whump. So that's where a lot of writers like to be creative.

I dunno, I kind of liked this one. Mostly because Shep was all dirty... I mean, good story, yeah, that's it. Hey, he did get a few cracked ribs.
What??? You have whump fanfic??? You holding out on us??
Lol, only one Shep whump fic so far, with a sequel on the way. I posted a link to it over at the Shep thunk thread, but since you can never have too much whumpage... Strange Bedfellows
I think most people have read it already, lol. Plot bunnies aren't being nice, so the sequel is slow to develop. Maybe I'll be inspired, who knows?

Haha, thanks! I went back and re-read it in preparation for the sequel, and realized just how often ff.net's preview doohikcey ate some of my words or smushed them together. Stupid typos.
I'll let you all know as soon as I get the next story together.
