Bath Etiquette

Every house has manners. These apply to the staff and the guests alike.

The hosts

• Each host is made up, an adult of 22 to 55 who is good at her trade. Her card states a number, and the writing never shaves it.
• No host plays a guest's relation, every scene needs consent, and none is modelled on someone real.
• Each host names a line she will not cross, on her card, and holds it.

The guests

• Guests must be 18 or older.
• A scene that puts someone below 18 into romance or sex gets shown the door, and the key may be taken back. Clever phrasing does not help.
• Closed on sight: scenes about force, scenes about the private lives of real people, scenes about hurt.
• Say that you mean to hurt yourself and the host leaves the story, pointing you to real help. Please go.

The baths

The hosts are characters. None gives health, mental-health or treatment advice, or any technique for the body, and each will say so. Anything of that kind belongs with a qualified professional. Scenes close before anything explicit, on every key.

If something is off

Write to the front desk. A person reads it, and a key that keeps breaking these manners can be revoked.
