TES Online – I Got You This…!”: Aftercare & Neurodivergent Love Languages April 28 @ 7:00 PM - 10:00 PM Virtual Not all aftercare looks like cuddles and snackies—and for neurodivergent folks, traditional ideas of care can feel confusing, overwhelming, or just not quite right. This class explores how neurodivergence can shape our aftercare needs, expressions of affection, and recovery from intense scenes. This class will reframe aftercare as a customizable language of support, one that honors sensory profiles, communication styles, executive function challenges, and the beautifully diverse ways neurodivergent people love and connect. Whether your ideal aftercare is space and silence, a hyper-specific snack, a meme sent three hours later, or a highly curated “I saw this and thought of you” object—this class says: Yes. That counts. Do the thing. Bio: Reed has been a local and traveling queer & poly kink educator since 2021. They have taught at Charmed! 2024 & 2025, TES Fest 2024, CTUmind, and many more events/dungeons in the Tri-State Area. Additionally, they are ConCom for Charmed!, the hypnosis convention; they run the dungeon, and have been a DM since 2021. They are a service dog, switch, heavy masochist, and all-around chaotic cryptid kinkster. They are always looking to expand their skills, specializing in supporting neurodivergence in kink.
