Twenty-eight days set by a keyholder rather than by a calendar, from 1 to 28 February.
What changes
In the other three seasons the rules are fixed in advance and the same for everyone. In February a keyholder sets them for you — the duration between openings, the daily task, what earns an early one and what does not.
The frame
- Everything is agreed in writing before 1 February: what is on the table, what is not, and the safeword that ends it.
- The keyholder works within your written limits, never beyond them.
- No physical meeting and no sexual relationship is part of this. It is remote, and it stays remote.
- You keep the right to stop, on any day, without justifying it.
Who holds the key
Keyholders are part of the coaching team. You are told who holds your key before you agree to anything.
