Some of my favorite words and phrases to describe a character in pain

coiling (up in a ball, in on themselves, against something, etc)

panting (there’s a slew of adjectives you can put after this, my favorites are shakily, weakly, etc)

keeling over (synonyms are words like collapsing, which is equally as good but overused in media)

trembling/shivering (additional adjectives could be violently, uncontrollably, etc)

sobbing (weeping is a synonym but i’ve never liked that word. also love using sob by itself, as a noun, like “he let out a quiet sob”)

whimpering (love hitting the wips with this word when a character is weak, especially when the pain is subsiding. also love using it for nightmares/attacks and things like that)

clinging (to someone or something, maybe even to themselves or their own clothes)

writhing/thrashing (maybe someone’s holding them down, or maybe they’re in bed alone)

crying (not actual tears. cry as in a shrill, sudden shout)

dazed (usually after the pain has subsided, or when adrenaline is still flowing)

wincing (probably overused but i love this word. synonym could be grimacing)

doubling-over (kinda close to keeling over but they don’t actually hit the ground, just kinda fold in on themselves)

heaving (i like to use it for describing the way someone’s breathing, ex. “heaving breaths” but can also be used for the nasty stuff like dry heaving or vomiting)

gasping/sucking/drawing in a breath (or any other words and phrases that mean a sharp intake of breath, that shite is gold)

murmuring/muttering/whispering (or other quiet forms of speaking after enduring intense pain)

hiccuping/spluttering/sniffling (words that generally imply crying without saying crying. the word crying is used so much it kinda loses its appeal, that’s why i like to mix other words like these in)

stuttering (or other general terms that show an impaired ability to speak — when someone’s in intense pain, it gets hard to talk)

staggering/stumbling (there is a difference between pain that makes you not want to stand, and pain that makes it impossible to stand. explore that!)

recoiling/shrinking away (from either the threat or someone trying to help)

pleading/begging (again, to the threat, someone trying to help, or just begging the pain to stop)

Feel free to add your favorites or most used in the comments/reblogs!

Holy- I got legit chills gearing this!

Hi! Here’s something I’ve been working on for quite a while: A theme for my No Straight Roads fan boss! Introducing, Ophelia! A choral singer who fights with all the force of a thunderstorm, she calls up faceless, shadowy singers in order to back her up both on vocals and on the battlefield. Having just barely gained approval during her audition in front of the artists of No Straight Roads, the stage on which she performs is only half finished, and she does not actually have power there… Yet despite this, Mayday and Zuke are more than ready to cause some mayhem for the stormy singer! Despite her skill, Ophelia makes music for all the wrong reasons, using it as a way to run away, deflect, and escape from her past.  I LOVE No Straight Roads, and I couldn’t resist trying to put myself to the test of making my very own song and character concept. It’s even my first time trying to do EDM, so I hope I was able to pull it off and blend it both with Ophelia’s choral stylings and a touch of rock! Been a while since I reached for those real high notes too. I’m quite happy with them! Hope you like it too~ I would love if you’d reblog, but no pressure at all! Do as you see fit~  And now, credit where credit is due! Original composition and vocals by me - Teza Belmond Guitars - Richard Belmond  Ophelia’s gorgeous album art and finalized design were done by CatStar15 on Twitter! I’m delighted to have such a beautiful picture to accompany my art.

I'd be horrified too!

When you hit the wrong option by mistake. 😭

I'm Three!!! 💔

[important poll by the end! don't miss it!]

totally real "anon": i can't believe that Brittany Gallade would go to such extremes as saying this thing happened! LO: that thing actually did happen, but i decided it actually means something else and MO is totally okay with that. alright, LO. since you think nobody can trust on the judgement i had through my own two ears, let's have people deciding what do they think, shall we? the video that is being referenced here is this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fP2d9aMlZA0 you can first, don't actually click the link. download it on your own devices using the links on my pinned post and then watch it. comfortably ignore everything on it for this ocassion and go straight to the section "Mikaila's Abusive Ex" at the mark 1:17:02. the relevant portion we're talking about happens at 1:21: 51. transcript for those who need it: MO: "it was emotional, physical abuse, eh... and which i didn't realise at the time, there was sexual abuse because she'd actually always be the one to uh initiate sex for me. she was always like, whenever we were alone, she'd just put the moods on, she'd like literally grab between my legs, it's like... i'm, i'm not in the mood. and then she'd just like keep grab me like well, and i'm just using, um, i'm using her exact words, these are not correct, these are not my pronouns, she was like well [s]he's in the mood, it's like *hissing* oof, just... give me a sec... LO *groaning* oh god... MO: "yeah uh... um... so, she'd always pressure me into sex, it was not right and, and it was always only over when she finishes and she always finish first, so... i didn't even get to... LO *wheezing and laughing* KP *small laugh* MO:"... yeah... " LO: "god... you were dating a straight guy!" MO: "yeah... and it's gets even worse because she tried to trap me with a baby. " and since we're all on the same page, let's make a pool for people to decide if MO was just joking around and LO was totally not inappropiat or what!

let's hear it from everyone else.
