For this year’s A to Z Blog Challenge, Richard and Jayden are worldbuilding! Using Rebekah Loper‘s book The A-Zs of Worldbuilding as a guide, we have teamed up to give descriptions of the world we’re creating, along with snippets of what it’s like to exist in the world. Enjoy!

Background by Jayden for X is for Xenial:

Talk about an x word I haven’t heard of… Xenial has to do with hospitality and greeting protocols. Well, in a D/s world, there are lots of protocols. There are some that exist throughout the community to ensure that all of the submissives are in compliance with their Dommes. Certainly, a Domme has the right to insist on a specific set of protocols with her submissive, but the community also has them.

Some examples are: submissives always kneel at their Domme’s feet unless they’re given permission to sit on the furniture; submissives always serve their Dommes first and won’t eat until their Domme has started eating; submissives always refill their Domme’s drinks without being asked. This is just scratching the surface of what is expected of the submissives.
