@flesh @mynameistillian yeah I'd emphasize the importance of aftercare for tops, too! you're playing with big scary ideas & it's at least as important for tops to have the closure and boundaries and reassurance around "I'm not actually evil, we're just RPing w/ me playing villain" as it is for the sub to have "I'm not actually in danger, we're just RPing scary situations".
& okay to ask for help/comfort from scene partner!
