Wiki History Listing


V1 As in "basking in the afterglow" - the warm, glowing feeling of bliss that lingers following [[orgasm]] after engaging in [[happy_sex]].

For this tag to apply, it should be clear that the sex still hasn't really finished, but is merely winding down. The persons involved should still emotionally focused on each other, doing things like [[cuddling]], [[holding_hands]], making [[eye_contact]], and similar indications of affection, possibly also (literally) [[sleeping]] together through the night. If the partners have disengaged from one another, then the sex really is over, and this tag should not be used.

Contrasted with [[after_sex]], which indicates graphic, physical evidence of prior sex, use of [[afterglow]] should be based on the apparent emotional state of those involved. Also note that, while they can coexist, these two tags tend to be mutually exclusive due to reasons of conflicting mood and style.

For the group from [[BanG Dream!]], refer to [[Afterglow (BanG Dream!)]].
