softness -> RE: I was asked - do you cage at times? (8/11/2008 6:29:28 PM)

I find cages very settling after heavy play. If I have been pushed through a comfort zone into new ground, or there has been some overt terror/fear play or degredation, or mind fuckery I am usually pretty shaken up. I need to do some work slinging my demons back into their hiding places and getting myself back to a level field. I do not like being mauled and snuggled after such play, and after I get taken out of bondage for a while I would rather not be touched at all. In those circumstances being caged keeps the world out rather than keeping me in, and I find that gives me the secure environment to sort myself out. That said I like to be able to be able to see the person who has caged me, and know they are there. In fact the best cage recovery I ever had was being in the cage with a blanket, as I was talked back down to sanity through the bars, gave me distance and intimacy, security and space all at the same time. Never used a cage *inside* a scene ... only as storage or safety chamber
