Aftercare: I'm proud of you for knowing your limits.

Some pure aftercare after you let me know it was too much for you. Listener’s POV: I stop everything with a word and he freezes. I have reached my limits and I cannot continue. I feel awful about it and apologise. But he silences me with cuddles and tells me how proud he is and that our safety in each other is how we explore each other and our limits. Speaker’s POV: A single word from her stops everything. But as she apologises I wrap my arms around her and hush her. I tell her how proud I am of her and to not apologise. I tell her that stopping me is good and a part of the safety and comfort of exploring each other and our limits.
