Pictures depicting a victim in a situation with a look of fear, helplessness, despair or any combination of the three...a look that says "Save me...". The pool's first picture featuring komeiji_satori shows such a facial expression. If the victim in question actually says something along the lines of "save me" or "help me", that fits here too.

This pool is also valid for pictures depicting victims who are stuck in extremely hopeless, torturing or otherwise undesired situations that seem broken or incredibly scared or unhappy with their predicament.

This pool differs from pool #1446 (Heart-Breaking) and pool #439 (Soul-Crushingly Depressing) in that this pool's focus is significantly narrowed. This pool also differs from pool #1246 (Nice Knowing You) in that the focus of this pool is on a victim.
