"Like this? And then what ...?"
"Then you install the app with this file, and wait until it's done."
"Goodness~! It's all so complex ..."
The thirty-seven-year-old kitsune woman sighed as she stared at the spinning dial on her smartphone. A meter below the graphic slowly filled up as the device compiled the magical scripts necessary to run the arcane program. How did it come to this? At one point she was a proud housewife, and a maternal pillar of the local neighborhood. Then one night she caught her husband of more than a decade in their own bed, with a younger goblin woman riding his cock like a jockey at the races. One messy divorce later, she found herself alone with only her daughter for company, living in a tiny apartment with two bedrooms. It was not an ideal situation. But Yukina Hayami always did her best to be strong, especially for her daughter's sake. That very same daughter was now leaning against the backrest of the sofa, peering over her mother's shoulder as she patiently waited for the mysterious program to install.
"It's alright, Mom, I've installed this plenty of times before," she reassured the older kitsune.
"Oh my~ Things are so much more convenient now!" Yukina mused, touching a hand to her cheek. "To think you can package such advanced sorcery in tiny little pieces of plastic and metal. And everyone has access to it~!"
"Yeah, that's technology, Mom," said Petra, rolling her eyes at her mother's commentary. The younger, raven-haired kitsune was used to these kinds of quaint observations. It was charming, in a way. But sometimes they made Petra feel as though her mother was trapped in another age.
The program finished compiling, and the phone's screen flickered to life, showing the translucent icons of the newly-installed application. A small window popped up, a dark gray field with three flashing dots in the center, requesting something to input information from. Petra smiled, and performed a speedy somersault over the back of the sofa, joining her mother on the other side. She plucked the smartphone out of her mother's hands, and held it up in front of the white-haired kitsune.
"This is what you do, Mom. This is the good part," Petra said. Her eyes gleamed with excitement.
Yukina sat back on her hands, and looked up at her daughter's giddy expression. She seemed more eager about this than anything else that week. When Petra had suddenly approached her, offering her a solution to her post-divorce woes, Yukina was quite skeptical, and slightly appalled. But here they were now, about to start ... whatever it was called.
"How does it work, again?" she asked. "I know you told me earlier, but this all sounds so fantastical~"
"It's super simple, Mom. I showed you earlier. This app, 'Gloryportal Gacha,' it connects you to ... well, a random guy. That's all it is. It opens a portal that connects you to a random stranger. You can do things like earn points as you build your relationship over time. Think of it like a dating service that someone went and made a video game out of."
"Sweetie, I'm not looking to get into a relationship. I've had enough of that to last a lifetime," the older fox woman sighed, shaking her head. "What I need is something to satisfy my nerves, while my heart needs to heal. I'm sorry for saddling you with so many burdens after the divorce. You've always been a brave girl, and so dependable."
"Mom, please." The young kitsune girl took her mother by the shoulders, and looked her in the eyes. "Don't say that. I want you to be happy. And this will make you happy. Trust me, okay?"
The older woman nodded. "You have your father's tenacity, you know," she said, smiling.
"Don't compare me to him," Petra pouted. "I'm actually gonna help you, okay? After you check out what I'm about to show you, you won't ever think about him again."
Yukina watched as her daughter's fingers flew across the screen. A few taps later, the phone's screen flickered to black for a few moments, before being replaced with the image of a plain white ring. Underneath the ring, a line of text read:
<> Available Pulls: 1
"You just tap this, see?" The younger woman's finger descended and tapped the screen. As she did so, a tiny spark of light appeared at the center of the ring, expanding outward in a rippling sphere of glowing energy. The ethereal disk floated off the glass surface of the touchscreen, and hovered in the air between the two kitsunes. Then the glowing light burst outward, and an opening appeared in midair, roughly the size and shape of a drink coaster.
"Petra ... is that a portal?" Yukina asked, eyes wide with disbelief.
"Yup! Pretty neat, huh?" the younger girl said, grinning.
"H-how does it work? I don't understand~" The older woman leaned forward, studying the gateway with a look of incredulity and fear. "I thought spatial magic was illegal? Is this all safe?"
"Mom, for the last time, it was legalized last year. The portal is fine. It's all part of the game. They have a license for this." Petra sighed. "Look it's about to happen. Your first 'pull'! It's kind of like betting the lottery! Let's see what sort of cock you get matched with!"
"H-hold on! M-m-matched?! C-c-cock?! What are you talking about?! Petra!" The older woman gasped. "Petra!"
The black-haired fox girl didn't hear her. Her attention was fully fixated on the portal. It had begun to glow, and the shimmering light within the circle began to coalesce and take shape. An instant later, a phallic silhouette began to slowly emerge from the magical doorway, inch by inch. The mother-daughter duo both leaned forward, transfixed by the sight of a stranger's penis materializing in midair, right before their very eyes.
The light dissipated, revealing the object of their interest. The cock was nothing too outrageous. Rather diminutive, actually, compared to the average length. But still, Yukina's eyes widened in amazement. It had been years since she saw a man's member in person; towards the end of their marriage her husband had completely neglected her sexual needs. The way this one hung there, attentively erect, softly twitching in the air, made her feel ... things. Very strange things. The elder kitsune had to tear her gaze away to look up at her daughter's face.
"P-Petra ... that's ...! Y-you explain yourself right now, young lady!" The white-haired woman demanded, but the stern tone of her voice was muted by the heavy blush in her cheeks. "Explain to me this instant why a floating p-p-penis appeared in our living room! W-what sort of 'game' are you showing me?!"
"Mom, come on, don't you see what this is? This is your future boyfriend!" said Petra, a smile growing on her face. "I told you, the "Gloryportal Gacha" matches you with a guy, right? Every guy has a unique penis, right? The shape, the size, the color, the markings, the taste ..."
"The t-t-taste?!" The mother fox gasped, nearly hysterical with shock. "What in heaven's name have you been up to?!"
"Calm down, Mom!" Petra said, reaching over to put a reassuring hand on her mother's shoulder. "It's totally safe! There are security features that protect the player's identity. And it's all anonymous. And that guy on the other side? He's also a user of the app, okay? A willing participant, looking for a good time. All you have to do is interact with the dick, and you both get rewarded with points based on how much fun you have. You'll unlock levels, new ways to play with him, and then eventually, you can meet up with him and actually, uh ..."
The younger kitsune's voice trailed off, as her mother stared at her, slack-jawed and speechless.
"Well, you know!" Petra said. "You can do it! If you want!"
"P-Petra ... is this really what you think is best for me? Why ...?" Yukina asked, a note of concern creeping into her voice.
"Because you're a lonely, horny divorcee who hasn't gotten laid in years!" her daughter shot back. "Mom, listen to me. I know you didn't want to date because you're still not over that bastard. But this is different. You're not just going to get sex out of this. You get to have all sorts of experiences. There's romance and stuff too. It's like a dating sim, but you actually get to touch the dicks. It's perfect for someone like you."
The white-haired fox woman took a deep breath, and turned to look at the portal once again. "If ... if it's really just a game, I suppose it couldn't hurt to give it a try ..." she said.
"It'll be fun, Mom! I promise," said Petra, giving her mother an encouraging push on the back. The two kitsune women were now only inches away from the phallic apparition. The young girl leaned her head in close to the portal, and inhaled, taking a long sniff. She closed her eyes and grinned. "Damn, nothing beats the smell of a good cock, huh, Mom?
Yukina tilted her head, studying the stranger's floating organ. It was so close to her face that she could actually make out the little wrinkles on his balls. The fleshy sac hung tight and taut against the base, with only subtle, wispy hair to be seen.
"This is ... a younger man," the kitsune mother observed. "Likely close to your age, Petra. No ... I'd say a little younger. I'm certain he's a teenager, though."
"It happens! It's all random," her daughter answered. "And how were you able to tell he's young just by looking?"
"The penis. It's a youthful color. Vibrant. It's not the color of someone who's spent a lot of time in the sun," she said. "And look, you can see where the foreskin begins to retract at the tip. It's freshly pulled back, and not worn down. That tells me the owner doesn't masturbate too often. They must be quite sensitive."
"Wow, you sure know a lot about dicks, Mom!" the younger fox girl giggled, as her mother gave a noncommittal shrug.
"I'm no expert, but I'm not clueless about this kind of thing, dear. It's not like your father was the only man I was ever with, just the one I thought I loved.."
"Damn, Ms. Hayami. You old vixen you ...!" Petra said, nudging her mother in the side with an elbow.
"Petra ..." Yukina sighed, rolling her eyes. She looked up at the cock. "So, do I just ... do anything, and I'll receive points? How do I interact with this thing?"
"You can do whatever you want with it, Mom!" Her daughter explained. "The app will keep track of your actions and ... You know what? Here, let me show you ..."
Petra took her mother's phone once again with the intention of showing her the user interface, but suddenly froze, staring down at the screen. A glowing, golden textbox had appeared at the center of the screen, which she quickly read.
<> Ultra Lucky Pull! Rank SS+ Cock Encountered!
"Whoa! Are you shitting me?!" Petra exclaimed.
"Petra! Language!" her mother snapped, taken aback by her daughter's sudden outburst.
"Sorry, Mom! But check this out!" She shoved the smartphone in front of Yukina, showing her the message on the screen. "You pulled an SS+! That's fucking insane!"
"I ... I don't follow," Yukina said, still bewildered by everything that was happening. "I don't understand these words ..."
"It means that's a top-tier dick, Mom! Some kid with an ultra rare cock just got matched with you! I can't believe it ... that tiny, weak-looking thing is an SS+?"
"Ehhh~? Tiny and weak ...?" Yukina remarked, touching her cheek as she approached her gloryportal partner once again. "I think it's actually rather cute~"
"Well, if that's what you like, I guess I can't complain," her daughter laughed, shaking her head. She handed the phone back to her mother, and patted her on the shoulder. "Now, go on. Spend some time with your new friend. Don't worry about taking things slowly at first. The first time is always awkward."
The white-haired kitsune looked over at Petra, and nodded, a soft smile spreading across her lips. It was funny to think that she was receiving dating tips from her teenage daughter, of all people. Then she turned to face the portal, and set her phone down on the cushion beside her. She took a deep breath, and leaned forward to get a closer look at her disembodied lover.
"I'll, uh, give you two some privacy ..." The younger kitsune chuckled. Peta flashed her mother a thumbs up, and slipped away.
When the door to her daughter's bedroom closed, Yukina turned her full attention to the cock floating in front of her face. It was such a strange and perverse sight. To think that somewhere on the other side of this portal was a boy around Petra's age, likely naked in his own room with his boner shoved through a magical hole, waiting for the mysterious stranger on the other side to make her first move. How exciting~
She placed her hands on her knees, and leaned forward. Like her daughter had done before, she took a long, deep sniff of her partner's cock. The scent filled her nostrils, a pungent muskiness that sent a rush of heat to her brain, and then to her loins. She was sure now that the owner of this lovely penis was a young man indeed. Compared to the stronger, more overpowering scent of a matured male, this was a boy, one who was clean, but unassuming. His manliness had not yet fully bloomed. It made sense, given the size of his penis. Her gloryportal partner was not yet a man ... 'yet' being the operative word.
"What are you doing playing around with a gloryportal, my nameless boy?" Yukina whispered directly to the disembodied member itself, bathing it in the moisture of her hot breath with every word. "Don't you know that you can get arrested in the Human Realm for this sort of thing? Hmm ...? I wonder what sort of human you are. A little delinquent, perhaps? An unruly one, hmm? Or maybe just ... foolishly curious ..."
She reached up with one finger, and gently stroked the underside of the phallus, teasing the cockhead. She watched with a smile as it twitched, responding to her touch. She lightly tickled the ridge of his cockhead, making the limp foreskin dance atop the urethral opening, and watched with fascination as it began to drool. Droplets of clear precum fell to the floorboards below, a physical testament of the boy's excitement and eager virility.
"Since I don't know your name, young man ... I think I'll call you ... '${partner.yukina}'
