Rope scene
A session of rope between partners, usually drawing on skills they are confident with, as distinct from practice-focused labbing.
A scene is the time two or more people spend doing rope together. Shibari Study defines it as a play session that usually draws on skills the participants are confident with, and sets it apart from labbing, time given to practicing technique. Anatomie Studio in London describes spotters, onlookers who keep an eye out for trouble and help if it comes; it calls them highly advisable for self-suspension and useful when a rigger tries something new or riskier. It also notes that in traditional shibari untying marks the end of the connection, so taking the rope off is itself part of closing a scene.
