Okay to explain. This depicts the aftermath of a BDSM session, which seems to have involved at least some bondage as well as sensory deprivation in the form of the blindfold, among other things. Right away he is “dropping character” from Dom mode to ensure that there is nothing wrong with her and that nothing he’s done during the session has caused any lasting harm. The cuddling and blanketing and everything he says is what’s called “Aftercare”. It’s the most important thing about any good BDSM relationship. It’s essentially decompression after the occasionally intense experiences, and is where the dom makes the sub feel comfortable and loved and generally pampers the holy hell out of them.
The thing to always remember about BDSM is that when done properly it should follow three little words. Safe. Sane. And Consensual. It is the Sub’s job to let the Dom know (either by safewords or other signals) when they are becoming uncomfortable. It is the Dom’s job to know both their and their Sub’s limits, to listen to both their body and their Sub’s to make sure no one is being hurt, and to listen and pay attention to their Sub’s signals to know whether or not to stop. Despite there being a Dominant and a Submissive involved in BDSM, it’s actually still a very equal partnership, and one built on trust at that. The Dom cannot do anything that the Sub does not explicitly want, and the Sub is perfectly able to stop anything that is happening if they feel uncomfortable.

This comic right here is, for one, amazing. And for 2, spot on about ANY sort of play any couple should do. Dom's, Ler's, anyone that "up top" should ALWAYS take care of their Subs and Lees. We just put them through a hellish trial, only fair that we give them a taste of heaven to sooth their tired bodies and souls.
