Some Of My Favorite Words And Phrases To Describe A Character In Pain
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!

While apart of me wishes there was more time in the day to write more, I also know all that would do is make me work on everything all at once.
I kind of punish myself when I don't work on things I've planned but it's hard for me to focua on one thing when I get another idea. So, I'm going to just let things be and make up for it later.

Troubles with being new lovers

“The problem is that you wanted to tell me, not that you had the issue to begin with.”
These words seemed to hold a much deeper meaning for the disagreeing pair. Not even a scowl followed these words, it was a grin. One grin that said more than the words could ever.
“So it’s bad for me to tell you about concerns I have?”
The grinning one shook her head. “No, you can tell me whatever, but I don’t fully understand why it’s important you tell me this. Especially since you can just do whatever you want.”
“What am I doing?”
She scoffed. “Oh, Mr. Tachi, mind giving us an exclusive about your plans to become a professional player? Seriously, did you forget you got drafted for the minor leagues?”
Tachi scoffed. “That wasn’t exactly something I planned, Cassie. It’s not like you, where you know exactly what you’re doing and you’re not considering…” His words slowed until they stopped.
At that exact moment, Cassie gave him a look as if she were waiting for him to go on. Knowing he wasn’t, she spoke up instead.
“So, you’re telling me to stop everything I’m doing because you have an issue with it. Is that what this is about?”
Tachi let out a small sigh. “I guess…”
“I never expected to hear this from you. All this time you’ve been telling me to do what I want and that as long as you’re with me, you don’t care how dangerous it might be. What changed?”
Tachi’s mouth remained closed. While millions of things swirled in his head, none of that made it to his mouth. This silence dragged on and Cassie stood there patiently waiting for him to say what he was going to. However, nothing came from his mouth in over five minutes and it felt like much longer.
Cassie sighed. “Tachi, it isn’t that I didn’t consider you in all this. You know that’s the exact reason I brought it up to you right? I didn’t even know when was a good time to tell you since you had a game and I didn’t wanna bother you.”
“It… it wouldn’t have bothered me.” His words were deflated.
“Well, thanks for telling me that now.” Cassie looked off. “Look, I don’t really see an issue with what I’m doing. The only reason this is an issue now is because you won’t be there to protect me; but I don’t need that.”
“No one said you did, but you need someone to have your back.”
“I do.” Cassie then held her palm up to her hair and from it came a small ball of fluff and a leaf that was latched on her hairline. “Bo and Jubell will be more than enough to look over me. Who knows, I might find some others as well and I’ll have even more protection.” The fuzzy ball seemed to grow agitated at her words. Cassie smiled. “No one’s going to replace you, I promise.”
Tachi watched her interact with the creatures feeling nothing in his mind change. His arms crossed. “What do you want to do this for anyways?”
“Hm?”
“Just the same way you think I’ve changed, what about you? Since when have you been so eager to run into something you haven’t fully researched?”
Now it was Cassie’s turn to hide away. Though she was a bit better at doing as she started to move Bo back up to rest inside of her hair. Jubell easily moved back to her hairline acting as a hair clip once more.
“What makes you think I haven’t researched it?”
“The fact that you’re not answering me.”
She finally looked at Tachi. “Maybe I have and I just haven’t decided how I should go about it.”
“Really? So, you did the research to know what thing you’re looking for, but not how to handle it? Come on, I’m not an idiot Cassie.”
“Then there’s no real reason I wanna do this, I just do.”
Cassie then walked over and found a few books on the table. Each with their own mythical design, she picked up the biggest one and opened the page she had bookmarked. Tachi moved to sit beside her and looked at the page.
“Can you at least tell me what this is you’re looking for?”
Cassie paused, but after a second she said, “sure, I don’t mind.”
Moving the book between their legs, Cassie pointed at the very bottom of the page. There, Tachi saw an illustration of a creature he can safely say he’s never even imagined could exist. The name just above it being, Mace.
“This is a Mace, or originally known as a dream eater. Stories have it that they used to look like this—deformed creatures that some would compare to things of their nightmares—but, it’s been recently discovered that they have most likely always appeared humanlike. Indistinguishable from any regular person.”
“Of course, not to you though.”
“Yes, it’ll be easy for me to pick them out. That’s not the issue, the issue is even locating them in the first place. See, dream eaters got a bad image over the years and a lot of them went into hiding just to protect themselves. Who knows where they are now, but if I can even get on the trail of one-”
“Then you’d be able to find many more. Okay, that much makes sense, but why do you care to find even one of these things? They’re hiding for a reason.”
“Like I told you, just because.” She then closed the book. “I don’t have to have a reason for wanting to help these Monis. I know they don’t want to be found, but my goal isn’t to bring them into the light… simply, I just want to find one.”
Tachi groaned at her vague speak. “What is this? Are you trying to prove something to yourself? You’re virtually one of the most powerful seekers ever and you have the backing of every other world being you could possibly want.”
“That doesn’t determine strength. I’m still pretty useless on my own, I just happened to get lucky with the bonds I formed.”
“Okay and that doesn’t change what I said. You have no reason to go out and search for these things.”
“Even if I don’t, I have to have a reason for just wanting to do things I love? What about you? I’m sure there’s no grand reason why you play baseball. You just like it and wanna keep playing.”
“Of course, but this is much more complicated than baseball. Anything you do now has a chance of coming back at you ten times harder.”
Her brow rose. “So you’re worried about the future then? Well I guess I shouldn’t even walk outside when it’s snowing because I'll slip and kill myself.”
“You make it sound so simple, but you’re avoiding what I’m saying on purpose. Why are you doing that?”
“I’m not doing anything. You’re the one who has such a big issue that this conversation is even happening.”
“Because you both refuse to hear my side and you won’t even tell me why you’re doing this.” Tachi closed his eyes and tried to calm down. “Cassie, you-” He cut himself off before grabbing Cassie’s shoulder. “Is it so bad that I worry about you?”
Cassie looked in his eyes and felt an intensity she didn’t want to deal with. Looking away, she said, “no it’s not. It is a problem when you’re stopping me from doing anything. How am I suppose to know the limits of what you’re okay with? Is it just this or do you want me to stop Seeking all together?”
Neither said a word in this moment. It seemed obvious as to why they weren't talking, but neither one of them wanted to say anything. Instead, Tachi let out another sigh before moving the grip on her shoulder down to her hand. Grabbing it, he intertwined their fingers.
“Doesn’t seem like either of us is going to give in huh?”
Cassie felt the warmth his hands gave off, just as she was used to, it felt too warm for her to handle. No matter how long they knew each other for, it always felt brand new to her to feel something this strong.
“Doesn’t seem like it…”
As her words trailed, Tachi then took a deep breath.
“Okay fine. Look, I won’t question why you’re doing this, but can you at least do one thing for me?”
“What is it?”
“Let me go with you.”
Cassie’s words were caught in her throat. “W-what?”
“I know it sounds like the opposite of what I’ve been saying this whole time, but you have to understand that, just as stubborn as you are, I’m right there. If I want you to reconsider, then the least I can do is see your side of things. We’ll do this together, but the second you realize I might be right, we’re heading right back here.”
Cassie felt a slight smile peak. “You know that’s not going to happen.”
“Maybe, but if there’s anything I learned from being with you is that I don’t know everything. I could be totally wrong about something and so could you.”
They looked at each other once more and Cassie eventually nodded.
“Fine, we’ll go together. I just hope you won’t do anything to prematurely end this.”
“I wouldn’t do that, you’re more than enough to make something like that happen.”
“You always blame me for the things that happen to us.”
“Who else brings that stuff to us?”
Cassie just smiled and they let go of each other’s hands. “Well, if we’re going to do this, I’ll need to ask Lazarus for something.”
“Anything specific you need me to bring?”
“Probably just stuff for a normal road trip. The location of this dream eater isn’t too far from here, but we likely won’t be coming home for a little while.”
“Alright, I’ll get some things ready then.”
“Okay, I’ll be back before dark and we can leave then too.”
Collectively, neither one wanted to reveal much of anything behind their reasons, but this was something new for them both. With these new experiences came something they would both soon have to deal with: compromising.

Many of my stories are just this...
Ghosts?
“It happened again…” The figment said as he watched the girl lie on her bed repeating the same words over and over to herself, she was holding herself while rocking and spoke:
"I know… I know… I know it’ll be alright… it’ll go back to normal.” She nearly chanted that as she held back tears, her voice was shaking and he knew she’d soon fall asleep. Her problems wouldn’t be fixed however, he knew they wouldn’t after the years and years of the same thing happening. The girl then took a deep breath and sat up locking eyes with the figment. It was time to go. He would leave her for now, but would come back when this happened again.
His ghostly figure left the house and flew to the abandoned apartment where all ghosts in this area remained. Getting inside, there was a man.
“You’re back.” He simply said.
“Yeah, I figured I wasn’t going to be long.”
“So were you right?” Reluctantly, he nodded. “Lucas, perhaps we should consider taking her life now.”
“I told you I didn’t want to do that.”
“But you’re not supposed to be dead, and it seems as if she either will be or should be.”
“You don’t know half of the situation with her…” Lucas paused, “She’s always trying to stay strong, even now she was telling herself things would go back to normal. That’s how hard she’s fighting.” The man stared at him, “So if invalidate her hard work then we should stay dead.”
“It seems you’re growing attached to her, Lucas.”
“You know, Spencer, maybe I am. I don’t have an issue with staying dead if it means I get to remain with her.”
“But even if you say she should be dead.” “I know what I said before, but… I don’t want to see it all end like this. She deserves to be happy and it’s not my place to just sit here and take that from her.” Lucas then left the lobby and went to his apartment room. Going through the door and getting to the bed, he went to the window staring in the direction of her home. He hoped she’d be alright until the morning. Things like this never got easier, neither for him nor the person handling it.
