Damien On the other hand, this Australian girl never had her own emergency key, so I found (and still find) it adequate that she could safeword out immediately any time, with the questions discussed only after the safe has opened. It was just - surprising!
i think the scenario is clear. there was a safeword and you both knew what it meant, so there is no more discussion. if the safeword is used, you have to grant access to the release, everything else is no longer your responsibility.
