The Basics

What a scene is, how a good one flows from negotiation to follow-up, and how to tell a real dominant from a fake one.

What is a scene?

A scene is a planned, agreed-on period of play with a clear start and end. You plan the boundaries, not a script.

  1. Negotiate

    What's in, what's off-limits, safeword, rough length, aftercare needs.

  2. Warm up

    Start light and build gradually.

  3. Play with check-ins

    Green = good, yellow = slow down, red = stop.

  4. Clear end

    An agreed end signal, or any red/safeword.

  5. Aftercare

    Comfort and reconnection right after.

  6. Follow-up

    Check in a day or two later.
