Just for the record, this isn’t a callout post! I just get some post-session clarity and wrote this up to hopefully help others.

First off, let them breathe and come down. Praise is perfect here because it allows a softer fall from the heights. Let them know you’re there, that they did so good for you. If you have nicknames (“sweetheart”, “pet”) this is a great time too.

Ask them how they’re feeling. Mentally they might be floaty, pink, sparkly, on a river, soaking in the warmth. Check if they’re feeling tingles in their fingers or toes. Remind them gently to breathe, relax.

Ensure they have water. Protip: have them get a glass/etc before the scene starts. Jelly legs take a while to get back to normal!

Get them comfy - depending on temperature. Some may prefer to use the restroom right away to clean up, others may want to lavish in the feelings first. Have them turn on a fan, get snuggly with a blanket or stuffie, maybe put on soft clothes.

Reassure their brain. It’s had a LOT of chemicals pumping through it, so laughing or crying are completely normal responses.

Don’t push too much. Now is the time for gentleness. When in doubt, let them set the tone; snuggly, giggling, back to earth. Sub brain may be fragile, and they still need you here.

Once they’re back to themselves fully, recap the scene. Subs who really lose themselves in it may need reminded what they even did - not having to think about anything is a helluva drug, and their memory might be one big lovely blur.

That’s all for now! Take care and play safe, dears 🥰
