aftercare
What a person needs once a scene ends: water, warmth, quiet, company, being left alone, food, or simply being told they are alright. It differs from person to person and it changes from one day to the next.
Example They agreed beforehand that one of them wants to be held and the other wants twenty minutes alone.
What it is not Not a courtesy and not an extra on the end. It is part of the thing, and it is asked about rather than guessed, because guessing wrong is where people get hurt after everything else went well.

How each entry is written
Each entry says what the term means on KinkEU, gives one example of how it is used, and says what it is not when it is often confused with something else. A role is never a gender, so no entry says who holds it. An entry explains a word. It is not a guide to doing anything.
The same words in the app
These are the definitions the app shows when you tap a term. They are written once, so the meaning here and the meaning on a profile are always the same.
