Yes that’s right, it’s time for Tunnels of Time kids so let’s all strap in shall we? I apologise in advance for the terrible phone screengrabs – I have a blazing migraine and no goddamn energy to tidy them up. ANYWAY.
Let us begin. Hey, the model work at the beginning of this episode is spectacular and I *love it* but is that what I’m here for? No. No it is not.

Probably gonna use this later. Thanks!
Whump dialogue prompts:
“Ok, _______, do you think you can stand? We need to get out of here, so just lean on me, alright? I know it hurts, but we need to hurry.”
“Just try to breathe, ok? I know it’s hard, but try for me, ok? Breathe!”
“Everything’s going to be alright, ok? We found you, and we’re going to get you out of here, ________. We’re going to get you home now, ok?”
“Alright, I’m going to carry you to the car now, ok? No, don’t even try to argue, you really shouldn’t put weight on that leg, so I’m carrying you.”
“Just relax, ______. I know it hurts, but help will be here soon.”
“It’s alright, just hold on for a few more minutes, _______. The worst is over, just a few minutes and you can finally rest, ok? It’s going to be fine, just keep holding on.”
No no no what are you doing to poor Virg!
Okay, this one is purely @vegetacide ‘s fault. She suggested a plotline. I volunteered to write it.
And because it involves both of us, it is Virgil!whump :D Though admittedly the Virgil!whump is only a plot device to lead to the main part of the story, but somehow I managed to write 1880 words of it anyway.
Warnings: Language warning for the first line. Virg was under some strain at that moment. Non-graphic whump.
Many thanks to @vegetacide @scribbles97 and @i-am-chidorixblossom for readthroughs and various cheerleading :D ::hugs you lots::
I hope you enjoy it.

“Fuck!”
Virgil closed his eyes and tried not to puke.
Even without sight, he could sense the hangar spinning around him. He had to swallow repeatedly as his left arm and shoulder, tangled above him, screamed.
His head spun in the opposite direction to the hangar and he had to swallow again.
But he had to open his eyes.
Had to.
So, he did.
The rock walls spun slowly past him. So familiar, just not from this angle.
Ow.
Ow.
Shit.
The air was cool over the heat in his skin. He looked down. It was a mistake and he had to force his stomach under control again as the concrete floor and his toolkit, so far below, danced in and out of focus.
It was his safety line that had saved him from joining his tools.
He let out a painfilled breath.
It was a bat. A damned bat that must have found Two’s tail plane a convenient place to roost overnight, but had objected to Virgil’s intrusion. It had flown at him in a panic. He hadn’t expected it, had reacted badly, took a misstep, and over he went.
The world still lazily rotated past.
Carefully, he looked up at his arm, almost afraid to see what he would find. He could guess by the amount of pain he was in, but confirmation was going to suck.
Backlit by the overhead light shaft and the red of Two’s rear thrusters, the safety line was looped around his wrist, cutting the circulation off to his hand. Every joint in the limb all the way down to his shoulder was screaming.
Because it wasn’t the carbine at his waist that had taken his sudden wrenching halt mid-air, it was his arm.
He let out a groan. There was no doubt that he had likely dislocated his shoulder again. The pain was far too familiar for it to be anything else.
He let another moment pass before gathering himself. He couldn’t stay here. The thought of his brothers finding him like this was embarrassing. Gordon was never going to let it go.
So bats weren’t one of his favourite animals. Sure, they could be considered cute, in a snarly kind of way, but Virgil had never liked their smell or their ability to scare the living crap out of him.
Just like this.
Gordon was going to laugh his ass off.
Falling off his own Thunderbird because of a stupid bat.
The world continued its lazy spin.
He forced himself to focus. He could retract the safety line. This would pull him back up to Two and he should be able to clamber onto her fuselage and make it back to her overhead hatch.
But first he had to untangle his arm.
This was going to hurt.

Welcome to the One Prompt Challenge!!
What is this? Well since a bunch of us were chattering earlier about the possibilities of how to apply this prompt sent in to @trope-appreciation-tuesdays , Nutty and I thought why not make it a community event!
Behold, a table of every possible main character combo! (made by @gumnut-logic)
The challenge is for all of us (as Thunderfam!) to fill in as many combos as possible. There’s no time limit, there’s no dibs, just write whatever combo you want to explore and tag #ThunderbirdsOnePrompt or feel free to tag @tracybirds in the notes and I’ll update this post and we can share the enjoyment together!
Also, don’t worry if someone has already written the combo – we all approach prompts in totally unique ways and the more fics the better am I right :D
If you post on AO3 – I’ve set up a collection you can add to as well!
–
Linked Prompt:
“You don’t need to worry about me,” said A.
“Well, someone has to!”
B paused - they didn’t mean to raise their voice. They sighed and continued
“A.”
A rolled their eyes but B wasn’t deterred.
“When was the last time you ate? Slept?”
A got up abruptly, hoping to avoid a lecture. Their head spun and they reached for something to steady themself, almost crashing into the bookshelf…
Masterpost can be found under the cut

I’ll beat you with a chilly 4 degrees where I am, and steadily going downwards!
28°C and still rising.
Usually, that temperature happens at noon here in the North East.
Happy Thunderbirds Day to everyone who loves all things Thunderbirds! 💙💚🧡💛❤🖤 FAB
