Meta-Techniques

The one-sentence "definition" that should be in italics.

This pattern is a still a stub.

Prompting techniques are used to subtly indicate wishes to initiate scenes or that ongoing ones should be ended. Feather Play is an example of the former where the act of presenting a feather to another player shows a wish to initiate a scene containing sexual activities. The Liquor on the Table is an example of the latter where placing bottles of (fake) liquor indicates that players should intensify their role-playing and bring conflicts to a breaking point
