Usually I dislike it when authors use anything but 'red' as a safeword, but 'polyester' as Rare's safeword is fucking inspired. You get one billion points for emphasising that tops safeword too, and a billion more for pointing out that berating someone for safewording is a serious faux pas. Definitely one for the faves list.
2302759 Heh - I actually base how safewords work on my own system. Green, yellow/orange, red, and safeword.
Green: Go right ahead, babe, I'm okay now. Yellow/orange: Slow down/do something else please, I'm not quite comfortable with this. Red: Stop, this doesn't feel right, I'm not comfortable. Safeword: This should be something that's specific to the pony in question ("polyester," for example, for Rarity. Rainbow's and AJ's haven't come up yet, though I know what Rainbow's is at least.) However, when the safeword is used, it basically means "stop, right now, we need to talk about this, and if you keep going it is without my consent."

When you have this done to yourself... you sometimes forget how close to death you can get and how awesome it feels... but safewords are a bitch to remember... especially if you are being chocked. But yeah seriously dont do this.... being near death gets boring and stupid after a while....
2304061 I'm not really experienced in the matter, but I also prefer a variant of a streetlight system, though I like to substitute "green" for "Check?" Followed by a full sentence, like "I'm all right." or "Keep going this feels good." When I'm uncertain about someone's status, I prefer that over a small word that was maybe uttered in confusion or panic in order to keep going. However, usually when I write a bit, I leave it out. I always like to write it the way it appears more carefree. Don't know why exactly. Just my 2 cents.

Yeeeeeeeeah, no. I'm rather painfully vanilla. I think the notion of that kind of game would send me screaming into the street.
