The Lexicon

The Lexicon preserves the language of the Lifestyle — its words, concepts and traditions. It records meaning; it never prescribes practice. Where usage varies between Houses or lineages, each is set down with equal respect.

Relationships

24/7

also known as 24/7, 247, twenty-four-seven

Notation for a dynamic that is understood to be in effect continuously rather than only during scenes.

Definition

Expanded form: Twenty-four / seven

24/7 signals that the parties treat their authority arrangement as a lived orientation, not a scheduled activity. The precise shape varies: some 24/7 dynamics are highly ritualised, others quiet and domestic.

Discussion

24/7 is used in profiles and in community discussion to distinguish full-time dynamics from scene-only or weekend arrangements.
