Yer basic sci-fi thing with implants and people able to rent out their bodies to others, for example those who want to go partying but not have the hangover the day after.

Plus a little few extras. Commission for Guri.

Virtually Terrifying

Alex was in the middle of his second-calculus class exercises, poring over a mix of virtual books in his HUD display, and old-fashioned pen and paper notes on the desk. He had been studying these strange equations for days as he neared midterms, and most of it did not seem to make much sense. Still, he went on. He did not have the luxury retaking classes or getting a personal tutor like the more well-off students, even though it was a community college. The wolf twitched his tail irritably as he forced himself to write down example problems and solve them, knowing that he was much more likely to get it into his fluffy head if he learned by doing, than just cramming through the pages.

He looked up as a tone chimed through his head, informing him he had a new message. It was just another notification from the school about what tasks he had to finish this week. Not that he really had to actually look up with the implants providing a head-up display. He mostly did it out of habit from when he had a physical computer standing on his desk.

Even most teens had a basic implant that had limited networking, and the ability to store, view, and retrieve data. It wasn't required by most schools, but anyone without one was at a disadvantage. Most everyone used them to stay connected, and everybody was reachable as long as they had not set their implant to 'do not disturb'. The wolf could not afford to be unreachable. Like most of his fellow students, all-important messages from school could come in at any time, and almost every instructor thought their messages were more important than anything else.

Alex also had another reason not to mute notifications. He had upgraded his implant to an advanced model, a bio computer that was linked to his brain and throughout most of his body. It allowed two-way communication, where he could get inside someone else's body - as if he could afford it - or the main reason, renting himself out as a puppet to earn extra cash for his tuition and the upgrade itself.

It had cost him a lot on lay-away, even from a less than top-notch dealer, and the stress of merely having a couple of weeks before the next payment was due was nagging at him, making it harder to focus on studying. Yet, he thought it was worth the minor stress of sometimes needing to take a break from studies, to earn the extra income that would pay off the upgrade and later on give him the edge in his classes.

Many people rented themselves out as a mobile body via a wireless uplink. The services were often of a sexual nature, because.. sex sells. Either to do it without worrying about consequences, or from the desire to cheat without their partner finding out about it. But sometimes, it was just someone who was physically disabled and wanted to experience daily life in a fully functioning body, escaping their handicaps. Technology had come a long way, but still there were bodily functions or limbs that could not simply be replaced by a prosthetic device, and not everyone was satisfied with living their life through a view screen.

The upgrades Alex had paid for were very invasive. A regular implant was only attached to parts of the brain to provide a simple HUD, communications, and search/store capabilities. He'd opted for a full body configuration that would also connect directly to a large number of nerve clusters. It would allow for him to be fully immersed in another body or virtual environment wirelessly, and also let somebody else take control of his body. It made Alex a passenger in his own body, though he had the option to disconnect in an emergency. It all formed a virtual world that he could watch, an augmented reality, overlaid on his vision. The squeamish young wolf had opted not to look at detailed pictures of the procedure.

Alex had thought it would pay for itself within a year, as he took every chance he could to get new customers. He placed his ads high in the availability lists, paying that little extra to earn his income before the loan on his upgrade was due. There was no 'not disturb' as far as he was concerned, because any incoming message might be from a prospective client.

One of his early renters wanted to do a bit of anal play with him, and it had felt weird and just.. odd, but since anything he could add to his resume would add to the list of clients willing to rent him, he had been practicing with a small butt plug before bed each night. He had tried to push it in, feeling his ears blush as he was just touched there, and managed to slide it halfway in the first time before he had clenched, and it had popped out again. He'd also found that he really needed to use a towel to clean up. The next time was easier. The toy popped in and mostly stayed put, though he had to clench to keep it in, as it was too small to stay inside him on its own.

Fortunately, or unfortunately for Alex, many of his customers wanted a relatively virgin puppet, the upgraded implants letting them feel not just what happened in the body, but also the wolf's general feelings. It added to the fun that the client felt, as they could relive how it was to be young and fresh again, with a snug, unused body, and going so far as getting a rush out of Alex's emotions through the interface.

The upgraded bio chips were not in the class of mind reading, but still could convey most of the feelings induced in Alex's brain, along with a full spectrum of nerve signals from all over the body. Still, it was what he had paid to get, with the intention of catching as many customers as he could in a short time. Luckily for him, around half of the customers wanting to rent his body were just wanting to experience walking about as a plain late-teens - Alex was just reaching his twenties - guy, going to parties or merely being able to feel young again. The bonus for the user was also to get stinking drunk at a party, without needing to experience the hangover the next day. That part got left for Alex, who got to try studying with a pounding head and roiling stomach. In the process, he'd learned that most hangover cures just made things worse. At times it was even his 'fellow' students that rented him for a party night, showing up and announcing who they really were, showing off how well off they were to afford a puppet, partying through the night and being clear-headed the next day, while Alex got to swallow their misery.

The message notification beeped for a second time, Alex was close to ignoring it, since midterm exams were next week, but saw it was from the rental service. He dropped his homework on the bench and sat up to give his HUD screen his attention. In a window, a large, overly-muscled and badly animated male lion appeared. Clearly someone was using a disposable avatar overlay to hide their identity. Nothing new about that. Just about everyone who had contacted Alex about sexual services had done their best to stay anonymous. The wolf was fine with this. He did not really care who was behind the screen.

Above the video window was the user name, "tommy1983". Alex had seen that name before. It was one of the clients that had insisted he try some anal foreplay for later on. "Hello there! How may I be of service?" he asked.

The buff lion in the window smiled, grinning at him. "If you're free, I'd like to use you for a few hours. It's not sleep time yet, is it?"

Alex shook his head, "Of course not, er.. Mister.. or do you prefer Master? I'm always available. What can I do for you today?"

The lion settled into a soft smile in the window, looking down as if he could see Alex's body. "Have you trained like I asked you to, earlier? Would you mind showing what you look like now, when doing that?"

Alex set the view screen to third person, using a camera he positioned on the desk so that it could capture a live stream of the room, Sports posters, cheap looking dorm door, and all. He took a couple of steps back and slid out of his clothes. The lion's face was visible inside his HUD, clearly seeing how the client was enjoying the show.

The wolf stepped out onto the floor, naked, kicking his sweatpants off to the side along with miscellaneous laundry and studying materials to make for a clean-ish spot on the floor where he could stand up for the camera.

Inside his field of vision, the lion looked him over on the full-body camera view. "Good looking still, I see. C'mon, turn around for me. Did you do that.. little practice I asked for?"

Alex blushed in his ears, luckily not seen on video, but turned his back to the camera and stood with his legs partially spread, picking up the small butt plug from the floor to show it. "Yes.. I, ah, I used this a little. I gotta be honest, it felt weird. But I can do it."

Tom grinned wider, something the wolf could see in his field of vision of course, even if turned away from the desk. "So.. would you show me? If you can poke it all the way in, I'll hire you for tonight. Sounds fair?"

The wolf swallowed hard, then bent over to push with the tip of the plug against his rear, looking for the entrance. In the view screen, the lion was clearly amused at the amateur attempt. Eventually, Alex pushed the tip to his rump, and started to slide the slightly widening toy inside. There was a short pause as he gasped in when the plug came near its widest part, then popped inside. On the camera, it was easy to see that the wolf was squeezing down to keep it inside.

Tommy made a huge grin and complimented him, "Good job, wolfy. My, how big it is!" he said with an amused tone of voice, indicating he was lying and not even trying to hide it. Alex blushed more fiercely and flipped his ears back. "You're really trying, I can see. Tell you what, if you keep that thing inside you while we set up our deal, you've got yourself a night's rent. Okay?"

Alex returned to the desk and sat down, with a brief quiet moan as that just got the plug pushing deeper in. He was talking to his client now without using his mouth, thoughts getting text-to-speech translated to come out as his normal voice on the other end but not actually be spoken. "D-deal. What.. uh, what do you want me to do?" Alex was squirming on the chair as the small plug jiggling in his rear helped get him hard, penis stiffening up inside his sheath despite the discomfort. Not being used to it yet, the feeling was not what he would call properly aroused. It was more like the body reacting on its own.

"Tell you what," Tom said, "If I get to keep you for the whole night, I'll pay off a fifth of what that upgrade cost. Seems fair?"

The wolf's eyes widened, seen in the camera he still had on his desk. That was a lot of money, relatively speaking, and would take him over the half-point mark he needed to pay the loan off. "Ah-- uh, yes, that sounds great! Tom.. um, is that what I should call you?" he asked while setting up the interface. A few artifacts showed in the view screen. The camera didn't add much extra load. More likely someone else in the dorm corridor torrenting yet more porn. "I, uh, I seem to be having some issues with the network.. If you'd like, I could go ask my roomies to choke their downloads for now."

Tom just shrugged, "You can call me, hm, Tommy Wolftamer. Nice huh, since you'll be my wolfy for the night? It's fine on my end for now. I'll let you know if the sensory transfer starts getting choppy."

Alex rolled his eyes, thankfully out of sight as he had turned the camera off. What a lame name, even for a disposable one! But it was close enough to a real name that he could work with it. "Sure thing, er, Tommy. Just set up the transfer, and I'll hook you up."

Within seconds, a small pop-up under the HUD window told Alex that he had gotten a substantial sum of credits sent into his account, and he switched over to "puppet mode" as it was called. The wolf felt a shake through his body as it recalibrated to the remote user, and then he was a passenger in his own body. He could cut the connection if he felt uncomfortable with it, like a safeword, but that was very frowned upon and would lose most of the offered payment.

Alex heard the lion talk inside his head, through a subvocalized two way voice communication. "I liked being in you last time. That's why I came back. You feel so.. nice."

It felt weird in a way, to have his own paws rub over the furred chest and stroke out along his muzzle. To Alex, it was only his own body, so he knew it well, but he was also aware that the person on the other end most likely had a different physique. The way his paws felt around the face, like a blind person getting an image of who they were talking to, then up to stroke the ears, and slowly pet down the sides of the body, even feeling around the sheath and nuts, particularly the sheath, and with how the tail was limp to begin with then slowly began to twitch, Alex had a pretty good idea that whoever was on the other side of the lion image did not have a semi feral anatomy, or a even a tail.

It was probably a human, Alex thought. He had a couple of those clients before, and they were always so interested in feeling what a furred body was like. Both the fur itself, the changed genitalia, and the digitigrade legs that took a little while to get used to walking on. On one occasion, a female fur had rented him, and she was just as interested in his male bits and the lack of rounded breasts. Curiosity could as strong a drive as sex.

After feeling his own body over, the wolf stood up on slightly unsteady legs. The last time this user had rented him, he had already been lying down in bed and so no walking was required. His body looked around the doorway to the bedroom, and walked towards it, leaning on walls as needed until he had enough awareness of the body's limitations to make for a passing walk. Alex laid down on the bed and spread his legs, a paw reaching down between his legs to pull the small plug out, then push it in again, slowly humping himself with it.

The wolf himself felt discomfort at the situation but just relaxed back as a back seat driver of his own body, observing what was going on without trying to interrupt. He could feel everything that was going on, and the client 'Tommy' also had full tactile reception thanks to the implants.

Tommy had ordered a special toy to be delivered to the dorm room with impeccable timing. Or, he might just have had the delivery person wait outside (for a good tip of course) until he was told to come on in. As the wolf heard the doorbell, he walked over to answer it. A package was handed over, and a thumbprint on a scanner confirmed the delivery. No need for anything as complicated as Tommy trying to imitate Alex's hand writing.

Unpacking the box, Alex saw a pair of large dildos, one medium sized and one he couldn't believe the width of. Tommy walked him back to the bed and sat down, still stroking the furred legs and enjoying the sensation of fur under his paws.. his paws, not the furless hands!

Alex spoke through the interface, "I-- do you really mean to use these with me? I'm not sure I could..."

Tommy interrupted with a soft 'sshh' sound, calming the wolf down. "Easy there, wolf. I'm not going to do anything to harm you. You had already practiced with the toy I asked you to. We'll take this nice and slow, both of us, okay? Just doing the medium sized one today. Are you fine with that? I'll be happy to use you again in a few days. Perhaps then you'll have had time to train yourself up to the larger one."

The wolf agreed over the comm link. It might not be what he wanted, but he wasn't going to risk jeopardizing a contract this big.

Tommy lay down on the bed with the unpacked toys down between his legs, keeping his head propped up on a pillow so that he could watch the adorable wolf body he was inhibiting. So sweet, so furred and soft, so nice to just run his fingers through the fur. He was even briefly distracted by sniffing his own hands, feeling the enhanced senses of the wolf pick out all the scents on the paw pads - his pads! - as he nosed through them.

Alex took a relaxed approach to it all, letting his client explore his body. It was not the first time a human, or so he guessed, had been inside him, and they were always so intrigued by the extra senses and just the feel of a furred body. Some of them even managed, in the short time he was rented, to catch on to how to make the tail move.

Now he heard the soft voice of the lion in his visual display, "What a nice figure you have. I'm so glad you were available tonight. Are you ready to try out the first, smaller one, of your new toys?"

Alex made a nodding motion, only seen in the viewport of the client, though the lion probably also felt the wolf's apprehension growing.

"Don't worry, pup. We'll go slow and together, okay? I would not want to hurt my favorite wolf," Tommy said in the viewing window, then reached down between the wolf's spread legs, feeling around for the smaller of the dildos and applying a bit of the complimentary lube that was delivered in the package. The moist tip was moved up above Alex's tail, searching for the tail hole, and poking the tip just inside as Tommy found it. Customers could feel everything Alex's body did, so it was easy for him to position the toy.

Slowly, Tommy began to push it inside. The lion smiled as the dildo was slowly pushed in, but Alex made a sub-vocalized gasp over the comms line along with a heavy blush that spread out through his ears.

"Easy, wolfy. Just relax. Take it slowrrrkr-- zzt-- --njoy it eventually." Alex heard through the interface. He was stretched around the toy, to where it made him wince soundlessly.

As the dildo was pressed in up to the smallish knot bump, Alex's paw had begun stroking his now emerging shaft, pressing the toy up with one paw, touching himself with the other, in short rubbing motions. The paw pads were clearly feeling around the penis, feeling its shape, slowly starting to rub up and down as a human would. It felt like a good tingling sensation, like foreplay for Alex, and while he hid a quiet moan as the toy was pressed deep up inside him -- deep, considering the small thing he had been practicing with -- the paw on his groin kept on rubbing, taking a grip around the member and sliding up and down. He occasionally moved his paw up to the muzzle to wet his fingers, and also to deeply inhale the scents.

"I.. think something is wrong.. I mean, not with the toy, I'm fine with that. But.. but is it still okay on your end? I'm having some kind of disturbance here."

Tommy looked quizzically past the artifacts in the viewport. "I can feel everything just fine, Alex. You haven't changed your mind, have you?."

If the connection was good enough for his client, then Alex wasn't going to worry about it. It would be extremely bad if the line got cut, and he did not receive his pay for the session, but since the lion seemed okay, he certainly was not going to complain, even though he felt his rear getting slowly stretched by the new toy he was now using. It felt much bigger than the small beginner's unit he had used on himself earlier, and he hoped that his practice would be enough.

The dildo was kept inside with a paw, and when fully in, allowed to slide out a bit only to jab back up into the wolf's rump. He moved the toy around in circles, applying pressure, until it was up to the marginally wider knotted base. "You're doing just fine, pup," the voice in his head kept reassuring Alex, "I really like how this is feeling. You're still okay there, I hope?"

As the toy slipped further in, causing an erection to form in Alex's sheath, he could not disagree. There was a slightly stinging sensation, but somehow his body was aroused by it. Or, perhaps, it was the lion who was getting horny and the feedback made the wolf's puppet body react in turn.

The wolf moved the toy in further, up to the knotted part, but thankfully left that out. Now, also, he kept stroking over both shaft and the sheath, exposing more of the flesh. He was squeezing gently, doing slow jerking off motion that Alex recognized as certainly being a human sensation. He would not have played with himself in that way. Still, the two way interface let his client's arousal spread in and get the wolf's body horny as well, in part.

Triggering both the purely physical reactions, as well as stimulating parts of Alex's brain pleasure centers so that he could not help but be sucked into the good feeling that his owner was pushing out. The grip around the wolf's cock tightened and the jerking motion quickened up in time with the dildo being pushed in, then slowed down again, several times. Alex was well aware that the client could feel all the sensations as if it were his own body, but still it was a human doing it.

Alex gave a small whimper over the comms line as he felt his rear being stretched far too wide, as he thought. "Is- is this really supposed to happen?" he asked. "And.. uh.. I don't mean to be rude, but.."

The lion had the same sweet smile all over its muzzle. "Yes, don't worry about it. This is what anyone playing with their rear gets to experience. And you're being such a good puppet to let it happen. Now what was that you wanted to say? Don't be shy, my pet."

While the wolf blushed, helplessly and autonomously, he only felt the toy slide further up with a stinging sensation as it widened. By now, the paw was on the mostly exposed shaft, tickling and squeezing up along it to help with the feeling and to get the wolf's rear to relax, taking more of the dildo. Still only stroking down to the knot and squeezing it, before backing up towards the tip again.

Alex quietly murmured over the comm link, "I.. I think this feels really good, but.. Y'know.. I can't help but notice you're not used to this sort of anatomy. Is it okay if I say that?"

"Good boy. Such a good boy. This is why I really wanted you tonight. You're so sweet and easy to train." whispered Tommy over the line, as he kept stroking the emerging wolf member, "What's that? Let me know whatever would make you feel better, pup."

Alex only mildly noticed the artifacts in the video comms now, as he was feeling just what the lion was doing to him, and the two way interface pushed in feelings of pleasure when the wolf on his own would have whimpered from the stinging. Wolf and lion both leaned the head back to loll the tongue out as the wider part of the dildo slid in, holding the canine-shaped knot right outside and pressing against the pucker. Still, the pawing up along the shaft continued, only in a few select moments gripping below the knot, making Alex think he was going to spurt right there, but _just_ as he was about to, the paw moved away again to rub the upper part of his cock.

Another update window popped up, and Alex swept it aside quickly, being far too into the jerk off to want any distractions. Damn that software and its constant updates at the most inconvenient times!

"I.. I'd like to tell you that.. Well, with us canines.. It's really hard to get off unless you grip down under the bulb. How.. how would that feel for you, if I may ask?"

The paws held still for a short while, then slid the toy halfway out, and began a rhythmic thrusting motion up into the wolf rear, at the same time he was stroking himself. The artifacts in the transmission became more apparent, almost like the connection was breaking up.

Tommy replied in the window, "I think it's feeling just great. It's like someone was giving me one helluva blow job here.. Can't wait to feel you spurt, wolfie. I want to feel what it is like."

Alex was thankfully getting the pleasurable emotions from the lion, or he would never have managed to press that medium dildo up so far, in such a short time. He was relaxing and enjoying the ride, thinking that it was not so bad when getting puppet controlled and benefiting from another more experienced person's feelings. Though by now he was silently whimpering, and had his body not been puppeted, he would have made audible noises. The strokes kept working the upper part of his shaft, only briefly grabbing under the knot. Over and over, always just close to climax but then backing off again.

Alex swept it to the side with a flick of his eyes, irritated, certainly not wanting to do a system upgrade while he was in use, especially with the already flaky line. It might toss the client out, and then where would he be? At the next pop-up, he quickly swiped 'mute all' on the side. "It's.. hrrh.. The thing you brought feels like it's pushing up inside my belly! I- I really need to.."
