The aftercare I provide is fresh cool water, a blanket, and letting them float back down to reality like a feather does to the ground. Once they begin to make more sounds than the kind of grunts heard by neanderthals. I ask them how they are doing, I usually ask them if they know their name first, then ask if they know where they are, then ask if they know what day it is. This helps me gage if they are still lost in the euphoria of subspace, or back in touch with the rest of the planet.
Once they are able to regain control of their muscles to the point of walking without needing to be held up. I talk with them about the scene. Not to ask if they enjoyed it (it was too obvious that they did usually). I ask them how they felt about what was done, if they felt certian things I did, what they were aware of, and what they were not.
It helps me to better understand how to play out a scene when I know these things. However many times the submissives tells me they were not aware of much more than the rythm and the music of the scene rather than the things that were being used on them.
In the online enviroment, I found that a submissive can experience the after effects for quite some time, and that talking to them asking them how they feel, if they are ok and such helps to let them know that you are concerned for their well being.
I have enjoyed the many responses on this subject. Thank you all for giving such great accounts of your expereinces.
