OP APPROVES. Augh, Matt taking floggings, figgings, and almost-dry fuckings like a champ (maybe not in one session, or at least not that order, but yeah), whimpering and crying because of course he's in pain and he loves it, but then his partner wiping his tears away just makes him slam the brakes on because he's so unprepared for it?

Maybe they hadn't discussed aftercare thoroughly beforehand because his partner just assumed that it was a given, but now he's safewording and oh no, he must be getting aftershocks from the session and partner goes to aftercare battle stations. Sweet words and cuddling and telling him how well he did and misunderstandings from people who are doing their best! Matt having to physically seperate himself from them to make them understand!

And then they spend a long, long time getting Matt used to aftercare because fuck, a dom needs to reassure.
