“Wow. This is a succubus’s lab?” The crust punk trans girl looked around Ziratha’s research laboratory and sniffed. “I would have expected more candles. Magic circles. Maybe a few jars of goat semen or something.”
Ziratha the succubus rolled her eyes as the punk laughed at her own bad joke. “That’s a stereotype. You’d think humans would know better now. We’ve been living amongst your kind for decades now, and-“
“And succubi are simply people just like us, living perfectly normal lives, except for the whole needing sex for subsistence thing,” the punk interrupted. “Yeah, yeah. I’ve heard the history lesson before.”
Ziratha had to suppress a groan. Alongside her PhD research, a full-time job in its own right, she worked part-time as an adjunct making minimum wage. She’d forgotten what a good night’s sleep felt like. Half her blood was coffee. She was way too tired for this.
Unfortunately for her, this punk girl - Vivi - was the best shot she was going to get at seeing her research reach fruition.
“Anyway,” Vivi piped up, “hurry up and tell me why I’m here already.”
“You’re here,” Ziratha replied tersely, “because I caught you breaking a window at the back of the lab. Probably looking for something to sell. And because if you help me out, I can delete the feed from the security camera. Got it?”
“A girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do,” Vivi shot back. “HRT ain’t free, you know?”
Ziratha sighed. In truth, she didn’t hold the attempted theft against her. It was simply that the succubus really, really needed just one single research subject. One was surely all it would take to get the funding board to sit up and pay attention.
“So, c’mon,” Vivi insisted. “What do you need me to do?”
Ziratha took a very, very deep breath. “OK, let me explain. Firstly, what do you know about the SEC?”
Vivi sniffed. “Sounds familiar.
“The Succubus Energy Crisis,” Ziratha told her patiently. “We succubi depend on energy harvested from our sexual partners. You clearly know that much. However, what you may not know is that sexual energy isn’t a sustainable resource.”
“How’s that?” Vivi seemed more interested in scoping out Ziratha’s messy lab than in the answer.
“The amount of energy a succubus harvests from her partner is inversely proportional to their sexual experience,” Ziratha went on. Reciting this was practically automatic. She’d been over it a hundred times in class. “The potency of sexual energy declines after, well, sex. Especially sex with succubi. The more we take, the less they have to give. Sex with ‘well-used’ partners yields negligible energy - and furthermore, might actually kill the human.”
“OK.” Vivi laughed offhandedly. “So what? There will always be more virgins, right?”
“That’s what people used to say about coal and oil,” Ziratha pointed out. “As it turns out, no. Thanks to a declining birth rate, an increasingly sexualized culture, and a constant expansion of liberal sexual mores into untapped parts of the world, reserves are depleting faster than they can naturally refill. Humanity’s store of sexual energy is trending towards zero. Starvation for succubuskind.”
“Right…” Vivi said skeptically, before shrugging. “I don’t see what that’s got to do with me.”
“I was getting to that,” Ziratha retorted. “I’m working on a solution, OK? See, traditional succubic magiscience holds that the depletion of sexual energy following virginity loss is a spiritual-metaphysical phenomenon. In other words, completely and totally irreversible. But that’s bullshit!”
Vivi looked up sharply at the sudden outburst of passion from the succubus.
“Those idiots in the academy just don’t want to let go of their precious little doctrines!” Ziratha fumed. “They’d rather sink billions into pipe dreams than admit the textbooks could be wrong. I mean, the SuperCharm Collider? Seriously? It’s a joke! But once I get my funding, I’ll be the one who’s laughing!”
She let out a loud, rich cackle worthy of her demonic forebears.
“See, my research indicates that the source of this problem is purely neural-psychological,” Ziratha ranted. “In other words: if you can turn back the clock on someone’s mind, you can completely refill their sexual energy. It’s a perfect solution. Renewable energy for all, forever. But the Institutional Review Board won’t give me the damn funding for a proper set of clinical trials.”
“Hold up,” Vivi broke in. “Are you about to tell me that I’m your guinea pig? And… you want to turn me back into a virgin?”
Ziratha grinned, her eyes flashing behind her nerdy glasses. “Exactly! Behold my Transcranial Magical Stimulation Unit. Which I expect to be known more widely as: the revirginization helmet!”
Reaching over to her workbench, she picked up something that looked halfway between an old VR headset and a military-issue tin foil hat.
Vivi folded her arms over her battle vest. “There’s no way I’m wearing that.”
“It’s safe!” Ziratha insisted defensively. “I made sure of it. If it wasn’t, this would kill my entire career.”
“That’s easy for you to say,” Vivi replied, unconvinced. Then, she tilted her head to one side, and a crafty, dirty grin slowly spread across her face. “Hey. How about you and I go someplace comfortable and find a solution to a different kind of energy crisis?”
“Huh?” Ziratha blinked.
Vivi kept grinning and winked.
“Oh, I see.” Ziratha smiled wearily. “You want to have sex.”
Vivi giggled and nodded. “Don’t take this the wrong way,” the punk girl said, “but you look like you could do with a little top-off.”
Ziratha frowned. “Rude!”
In truth, though, she couldn’t be too offended. It had been a long time since Ziratha had fed properly, and it showed. Proper, nourishing partners weren’t easy to come by. Her deep red skin had taken on a slightly unhealthy pallor, her horns were nubs, and her tail was just a thin, dainty little thing. It was a far cry from the kind of overbearingly transhuman appearance succubi could have if they were permitted to glut themselves to their hearts’ content.
Admittedly, Ziratha wasn’t exactly playing to her own strengths. Instead of anything particularly alluring, she was dressed in the universal uniform of the overworked grad student: an old t-shirt, grey sweatpants and comfy sneakers, with a lab coat over top. Her hair was tied back in a hasty ponytail, her huge, round glasses made her look like exactly the nerd she was, and she hadn’t bothered with any makeup to hide the dark circles under her eyes.
Beneath it all, though, she still had a killer body. She was still a succubus, after all.
“What do you say?” Vivi proposed. She glanced pointedly at Ziratha’s chest. “Wanna turn those C-cups into something bigger?”
Ziratha was surprised Vivi knew so much about how energy levels affected succubi. “You’ve slept with my kind before?”
“Sure have.” Vivi’s smirk was infuriatingly cocky. “A few times. And don’t worry - they were never disappointed. I know just how to treat a girl - mortal or demon.”
Ziratha rolled her eyes at the lewd comments, but she was smiling too. This made Vivi the ideal test subject. It was what Ziratha had been hoping for when she’d first laid eyes on her. Vivi was tall, hot, and confident, and while Ziratha knew better than to judge a book by its cover, Vivi did look like someone with a certain amount of ‘experience’.
She was pure punk, top to bottom. Vivi was wearing a battle vest covered in patches and spikes over a simple, loose-fitting top, and beneath the belt she had on a pleated skirt, some torn stockings, and an impressive pair of boots. A lot of the skin she was showing was covered in ink, and both sides of her head were shaven, leaving her with a messy streak of hair that was dyed neon blue.
Ziratha would have been pretty shocked if Vivi had told her she was a virgin.
“As attractive an offer as that is, I’ll have to decline.” Ziratha didn’t bother to conceal her weary sarcasm. “You’re a guinea pig.”
Vivi rolled her eyes. “Fine. I guess I can think of worse things than getting my ‘sexual energy’ replenished - whatever that’s gonna feel like.”
“Great. Great!” Ziratha immediately started ushering Vivi deeper into her lab before the punk could change her mind. “Take a seat, please.”
She gestured towards a chair that looked like it had been ripped out of a hospital examination room, with all kinds of wires and machines hooked up to it. Vivi glanced at the chair dubiously, but still moved to sit down.
“What’s all this, huh?” she asked, settling.
“Just monitoring equipment,” Ziratha explained. “Taking your vitals, measuring neural readings. That kind of stuff.”
“Nerd stuff, got it.” Vivi winked. “OK. I’m ready, I guess.”
Ziratha could barely contain her excitement. This was it. Her breakthrough. Her triumph. But the succubus was too much of a scientist to count her chickens before they hatched. “Here. Put this on.”
She handed Vivi the helmet she’d spent hundreds of hours designing and building. The punk looked at the strange, ramshackle device even more dubiously than she had at the chair, but she did as she was told. Once the helmet was properly adjusted, the screen mounted to it hung in front of Vivi’s face, obscuring most of her vision.
Ziratha tapped a few keys on her laptop and the screen came to life. A few lights and indicators on the helmet started to glow and flash, and the whole apparatus began to hum as the large capacitors mounted to it started to charge.
“Hey, so, how long is this going to take, anyway?” Vivi asked. The punk sounded a little less brash and a little more uncertain now. “Is this, like, some kind of long-ass meditation thing? Because I have places to be.”
“No, don’t worry,” Ziratha answered. “It’s much quicker than that.”
The succubus tapped a few more keys, checked a few readouts, and then hammered the space bar.
There was a huge, bright flash, like an old camera going off.
Vivi went still and stiff for a moment, and then groaned faintly.
“What the fuck?” she complained. “What… was that it?”
“That was it,” Ziratha confirmed. Her tail was very straight, and her voice was thick with anticipation. “How do you feel?”
“My head is throbbing.” Vivi slipped the helmet off her head and blinked as her eyes readjusted. “You could have given me some real warning, you know. So, did it work?”
Ziratha glanced at her laptop screen. “According to the diagnostics, it should have worked.”
“How’s my, uh, energy?” Vivi asked, a faintly mocking smile on her face. “Any of your fancy instruments tell you that?”
Ziratha simply returned the smile. “Oh, I don’t need any instruments for that at all.”
The succubus reached out and took Vivi’s hand, and let her demonic sixth sense for energy tell her everything she needed to know. Her smile immediately became a wide grin. Oh yes, it had worked. Succubi could always tell when someone would make a good meal. It was no different from any other predator’s sense of smell, although physical contact made it far more precise. Right now, Vivi had the scent of a ripe, untouched virgin.
This was it. The breakthrough Ziratha had long searched for. Her invention was about to change the world.
Despite such heady thoughts, though, Ziratha wasn’t celebrating. Something else had caught her attention. There was something very strange about the way Vivi was reacting.
The punk girl was trying not to let it show, but she kept squirming and shifting in her seat. A distinct pink blush was showing in her cheeks, and Ziratha could feel Vivi’s palm starting to turn hot and sweaty as they held hands.
The succubus tilted her head. Now this was very, very interesting.
“Vivi,” Ziratha said. “How do you feel now?”
Vivi couldn’t seem to meet her gaze. “I-I’m fine,” she blurted out in reply. “It’s nothing.”
Ziratha wasn’t buying that for an instant. She had a succubus’s instincts. She could tell when someone was seriously flustered. Experimentally, Ziratha lent in closer and squeezed Vivi’s hand.
“Are you sure?”
“Yes! Jeez!” Vivi’s voice was a little too strained. Under Ziratha’s watchful gaze, she twitched tellingly. “You’re just being kind of l-lewd.”
Lewd? Just by holding her hand? “Fascinating…” Ziratha murmured.
The succubus pulled away, allowing Vivi to breathe a sigh of relief, and inspected some of her equipment readouts more carefully.
“It clearly worked,” she said, as much to herself as to her test subject. “But there’s signs of something else, too… hey, Vivi. Remind me: you’ve had sex, right?”
In contrast to her earlier, cocksure attitude, Vivi now looked like a deer in headlights at the question. “W-w-well, yeah! Of c-course!”
“So your memory hasn’t been affected, just…” Ziratha murmured, before turning back to Vivi and clapping her hands. “I think I know what’s happened!”
“What?” Vivi demanded. “I mean, uh, nothing. Obviously. But what?”
“Just as I was hoping, my revirginizer helmet completely returned you to a virgin state regarding your reserve of sexual energy,” Ziratha explained. “But I theorize that it also affected some of your closely-related inhibitions, skills, and arousal responses.”
Vivi blinked. “And what does that mean? English please.”
“Well, do you remember being a blushing, nervous, inexperienced teenager, years ago? Remember how much ‘steam’ you had to blow off on a daily basis? Remember how it made you feel when a girl so much as looked at you?”
Vivi nodded, and waited for Ziratha to say something else. But when Ziratha just glanced at her significantly, the punk girl turned as white as a sheet.
“N-no way,” Vivi protested. “You can’t be serious.”
“I’m afraid so.” Ziratha giggled. “It’s all connected, it seems. Congratulations. In just about every way that counts, you’re a virgin again.”
Vivi turned from white back to red upon hearing the v-word said out loud. She made to stand up. “I-I can’t believe you did this to me. I gotta get out of here.”
“Wait, wait,” Ziratha urged. She moved to Vivi’s side and calmed her with a simple hand on her arm. “I should really run a few more tests. Just to make sure.”
The succubus’s nostrils flared. She was shocked at how potent Vivi’s energy now felt. It was palpable, even when they weren’t touching. She could sense it in the air. Clearly, she had to investigate further. All in the name of science, of course.
Vivi was back to looking flustered, but she still threw a mutinous glare at Ziratha. “Y-you’re crazy! I can’t believe I even…”
Ziratha swiftly decided that if the betterment of succubuskind wasn’t a good enough reason for Vivi, she’d have to resort to other forms of persuasion. She bent down at the waist, putting her face close to the punk’s, and made her eyes very big and alluring.
“Please?” she whispered, in a voice that was suddenly soft and intimate. “Won’t you stay with me?”
Vivi looked like her body temperature had just shot up ten degrees, and Ziratha noticed that she couldn’t seem to meet her gaze properly. The succubus was sure she wouldn’t have fallen for that five minutes ago, but now she was a total sucker. “S-s-sure,” Vivi managed, in a strained voice.
“Wonderful.” Ziratha licked her lips. The distinctive virgin-scent Vivi was starting to give off was just delicious. “These readings - and reactions - are extraordinary. And I’ve done nothing more than hold your hand.”
Vivi whimpered plaintively.
“I can’t help but wonder,” the succubus murmured, “what kind of yields you might produce with slightly more purposeful stimulation.”
Vivi’s eyes registered alarm but, before she could protest, Ziratha slipped closer and planted a kiss on the punk girl’s cheek.
Her reaction was as immediate as it was striking. Vivi let out a faint gasp and her back arched slightly, even though she was clearly trying as hard as possible not to show it. But even more striking was the intensified deer-in-headlights look in her eyes, like she was desperately struggling to figure out what this meant and what she should do about it, even as she was so devastatingly flustered she couldn’t even manage basic addition.
Ziratha’s nostrils flared again. This was amazing, and she was starting to become aware of just how long it had been since she’d had a real feeding.
“Wow,” she said teasingly, momentarily letting her instincts get the better of her. “Just from one little kiss, huh?”
Vivi whined indignantly. "I-it’s not… that’s… t-this is nothing!”
“Yeah?” Ziratha couldn’t resist a giggle. “It’s just so funny - you seemed so cocky before. So experienced.”
“I am experienced!” Vivi tried to insist. “I’ve f… um… fu… I mean, you know… I’ve had s-s-s-“
Ziratha’s grin just kept growing as she watched the previously fierce punk trail off, her blush growing steadily deeper as she struggled to bring herself to actually say it. The transformation was quite the sight to behold. She had to keep pushing Vivi further. She just had to. It was part of the experiment, somehow, she reasoned. The succubus took advantage of Vivi’s helpless spluttering to press closer still and put her lips right by her ear.
“Sex?” Ziratha breathed, pouring as much suggestion and seductive glee as she possibly could into that one, single word.
Vivi looked like she was about to explode.
“You see?” Ziratha drew back, smirking victoriously. “You’re not experienced. Not really. Not anymore. You can remember that you’ve had sex before - but that’s it. And you can barely even bring yourself to think about those memories, because you might get too worked up. Neither your mind nor your body knows how to handle it.” She giggled. “Typical virgin.”
“I-I’m not…!” For a moment she thought Vivi was about to start tearing up, but then the punk girl managed to rally herself. “Y-you’re just messing with me! That’s all! It’s your stupid little machine, making me all confused. T-that’s the only reason I can’t think straight right now. I’m not, um, w-worked up.”
“Yeah?” Ziratha challenged. “Then explain this for me, please.”
She reached down and rested her hand firmly on the big, unmistakable tent in Vivi’s skirt.
Immediately, Vivi went as white as a sheet. Clearly, until that moment, she hadn’t noticed the huge hard-on she was sporting. She attempted a protest, or perhaps an explanation, but all that came out was a few strangled, incoherent sounds.
“My, my.” Ziratha licked her lips again, without even realizing it. She was so very hungry. “You see? You’ve become so adorably excitable.”
Vivi whined as Ziratha started stroking her fingertips along the surface of her bulge. “Y-you can’t just… what the hell are you d-doing? This is harassment!”
“I’m a scientist, Vivi,” Ziratha chided, in a voice that made her sound anything but scientific. “After my experiment, it’s only natural for me to give you a nice, thorough examination.”
The punk girl let out another whimpered protest, seeming to sense Ziratha’s ulterior motive, but under the succubus’s ministrations that soon gave way to a weak, pitiful moan. The new virgin was like putty in Ziratha’s hands. The power, the energy, the scent - it was all intoxicating.
“In particular,” Ziratha decided, “I think it’s only proper that I get a reading on your, ah, endurance. I really think - I really do think - it could be very, very scientifically interesting.”
Science was increasingly slipping out of view. Ziratha’s gaze was set firmly on the huge tent in Vivi’s skirt, and it was getting harder and harder to think clearly. After a little teasing, that sweet, sweet virgin energy was coming off Vivi in waves. The laboratory was thick with its scent.
Vivi was still giving the succubus that achingly alluring deer-in-headlights look, but after a moment, her willpower started to wane. She nodded. Ziratha’s nostrils flared. That made sense too. What kind of virgin had the resolve to say ‘no’ to a succubus?
In exchange, Ziratha decided, maybe it was time to make good use of some of the inherent succubic talents she’d spent all of grad school neglecting.
Ziratha straightened up and, as Vivi watched, shrugged out of her heavy lab coat. As it fell to the ground, she reached up and removed her hair tie, shaking her head to make sure her hair cascaded down around her face. Vivi was all but hypnotized by the sight.
But that was only the beginning.
Next, Ziratha took her t-shirt by its hem and lifted it off over her head. She moved slowly, though, letting the helpless punk watching her savor the sight of her tummy and cleavage being revealed. The way she slipped out of her sweatpants was even more seductive. She made a dance of it, swinging her hips from side to side as she peeled them away from her body to expose her long, sculpted legs.
The striptease left Vivi with a little trail of drool escaping one corner of her mouth. She couldn’t seem to stop leering. Her eyes were shining like she couldn’t believe her luck, and the tent in her skirt was now marked with a growing spot of damp precum.
Underneath her clothes, Ziratha wasn’t wearing lingerie, merely a comfy sports bra and a matching pair of boxers. But that, she decided, was plenty to work with when it came to a virgin.
And from the look on Vivi’s face, she was right.
“Tell me,” Ziratha panted, “have you ever gotten a lap dance before?”
Vivi looked almost panicked as she shook her head.
“Great,” Ziratha purred. “Then I suppose this will be a genuine first.”
Effortlessly, the succubus eased her weight into the examination chair, and backed up inch by inch until her naturally huge, curvy ass was pressed right up against Vivi’s hard bulge.
Vivi squeaked like a mouse.
At this point, her every little noise and twitch was like a red rag to a bull. The newly-restored virgin’s scent was so thick in the air Ziratha could taste it. Her hunger was awakening instincts she’d never known she had. Moving to the sound of unheard music, she started grinding and gyrating like she’d been doing it all her life.
The effect the lap dance had on Vivi was nothing short of explosive.
The punk looked like every bit the virgin she now was. Her eyes were wide and practically bulging, and her mouth was contorted into a goofy, uneven shape halfway between an amazed grin and a look of desperate, anxious disbelief.
She looked like she was about to blow.
“C’mon,” Ziratha mocked, in a voice dripping with honey and brimstone. “You can do better than this, right, virgin?”
Her teasing elicited another strangled whimper that just made the succubus want to push Vivi further and further. She danced her way up the punk girl’s body and turned to face her, rolling her hips as she pushed her ass back out behind her to grind into her throbbing bulge.
“Be a good girl,” she teased. “Hold on a little longer for me.”
Vivi just nodded haplessly. Her eyes were scrunched up closed, and she was gripping the sides of the chair so tightly her knuckles had turned white. Ziratha could just imagine what was going on in her head. Baseball scores. Times tables. Whatever she needed to help not utterly humiliate herself.
“Let’s see if you can handle something a little more… direct.”
Ziratha arched her and straightened her tail, daring the virgin punk writhing beneath her to open her eyes and stare at her amazing tits. Then, she reached back and used her deft fingertips to unfasten Vivi’s skirt. Vivi let out a moan that was as much protest as eagerness, but it didn’t stop Ziratha from using the motion of her hips and thighs to slide the garment out of the way, and then pull aside her panties until her hard, leaking cock was completely exposed.
Zirath’s long, forked tongue lolled out of her mouth as she stared at it, dripping drool down onto Vivi.
She needed it.
“Good news, punk,” she breathed, shivering. “You’re about to get your cherry popped.”
“W-w-what?” Vivi exclaimed pitifully.
“It’s, uh, for the experiment,” Ziratha reasoned. She was frenzied as she tore off her bra and panties. “I need to sample, uh… and, well, get a reading on the volume of…” She rolled her eyes and licked her lips. “Actually, forget the science. I’m just hungry, and you’re ripe for the eating.”
“B-b-but!” the trans girl spluttered, as Ziratha positioned herself against her cock. “I-I don’t know if I’m ready yet!”
“Yeah?” Ziratha paused, bemused.
"I mean… uh…” A bashful look came over Vivi’s face. “It’s just… I maybe… I wanted it to be special. You know?”
“Oh my god.” Ziratha snorted a laugh, and grinned wickedly. “You are going to be just delicious.”
In a single motion, she dropped her hips and impaled herself on Vivi’s cock.
Immediately, Vivi’s voice shot up an octave, and she let out a girlish cry of absolute pleasure. Right after, Ziratha’s rich, gleeful moans joined the chorus. The succubus couldn’t believe how good the virgin’s cock felt. It wasn’t just the sensation. It was the sustenance. Merely being in Vivi’s presence for the last few minutes had made Ziratha fiercely hungry. Now, at last, that hunger was being sated.
Once she recovered from the initial hit, Ziratha started moving her hips and bouncing greedily on the end of Vivi’s shaft. With each bounce, the punk girl underneath her thrashed madly in a clumsy, instinctive attempt to meet Ziratha thrust for thrust.
She mostly failed. But the attempt, at least, was adorable.
As she rode the sensitive, inexperienced punk, Ziratha started howling with glee. She’d never had the pleasure before, but it was true what they said - there was nothing like milking a virgin. Her body was humming with energy, and every time she buried Vivi’s cock to the hilt inside her pussy, the sensation got sweeter and sweeter. Something about the flavor of a virgin’s energy was utterly transcendent, and it was made all more nourishing by what it represented.
Ziratha’s complete and total victory.
Unsurprisingly, it wasn’t long before Vivi’s moans started to peak, signaling that she was at the edge. Clearly, despite her memories, the virgin had absolutely no stamina. Ziratha wasn’t going to complain. The orgasm was the sweetest part of the meal.
“Go ahead!” Ziratha urged. “Blow your load already. We both know you can’t hold back anymore.”
With a cry of absolute, mortified bliss, Vivi exploded inside her.
Ziratha’s moans peaked too when she felt Vivi’s virile, nourishing cum paint her insides. It was better than anything she’d ever felt before. The power, the pleasure, the feeding - all of it. Ziratha could already feel her body priming itself to swell and change with the infusion of fresh energy.
The ecstatic rush of it made her greedy. She wanted more. She wanted it all. Ziratha squeezed down on Vivi and started riding her harder and faster than ever. Every bounce, every thrust, coaxed more and more sweet, sweet cum from the virgin’s cock, until Vivi was whining in blissful agony as she came down from the high of orgasm. Eventually, Vivi’s eyes rolled back into her head and simply passed out, her mind overwhelmed past its limits by sheer pleasure.
Ziratha kept riding her all the same. The succubus didn’t stop until she’d milked her for every last drop.
Eventually, though, once her hunger was sated, she slumped down next to the punk girl, giggling intermittently in giddy, light-headed glee. The succubus’s head was already filling with daydreams of fame and wealth when Vivi came to and pulled her into a hesitant, needy embrace.
“Hey, u-um,” Vivi whispered earnestly, in a voice that was anything but punk. “W-was it good for you too?”
“Huh?” Ziratha roused herself. There was something strange about the way Vivi sounded. No; about the way she felt. Ziratha had expected her to start returning to something closer to her normal behavior.
“I-I-I just, uh…” Vivi was once again turning bright red. “I-I thought it was really special. You know? Like, um, maybe we really have a connection.”
Ziratha seized Vivi’s hand again and, as Vivi stared at her hopefully, paid close attention to what she could sense from the punk girl. When the penny dropped, she started cackling.
“Oh my god!” she howled. “I can’t believe it. You’re still the same way. As fresh as ever.”
“What do you mean?” Vivi sounded defensive.
“I’m definitely going to need to hold you for some… oversight observation. Just to make sure.” Ziratha licked her lips suggestively. “But I can already tell. It’s like your brain can’t adapt anymore. Not just your energy levels. Your social skills. Your inhibitions. Your stamina. Everything.”
“What?” Vivi pressed anxiously.
“It’s the revirginization,” Ziratha pronounced. “All of it. It’s permanent.”
***
Mere weeks later, it was a very different Ziratha that stood upon the stage to make her big pitch to a room packed full of succubus leaders and investors. It wasn’t just the confidence - although she had that in spades, now that her Nobel prize was apparently all but assured. Her body had changed too. She stood taller. Grander. She exuded power and presence, and all of her body’s assets had gone from merely ‘hot’ to inhumanly mouth-watering. Her horns were a massive, knotted crown upon her head, and her tail was as deft as a whip and as thick as an anaconda.
All thanks to her favorite little meal.
Vivi was standing a little way behind her on the stage, and while physically she was unchanged, she seemed to have shrunk just as Ziratha had grown. She exuded a fragile, nebbish submissiveness despite all tattoos and piercings. She wore a choker collar bearing Ziratha’s name around her neck, and she was wearing a dress.
Ziratha liked her that way. And Vivi was no longer able to argue with the succubus.
“So, as you can see from our data, our early clinical trials have borne out the most promising of my invention’s results,” Ziratha was saying, as she rounded off her speech. “The regression to maiden status is, both psychologically and metaphysically speaking, permanent. The process isn’t damaging, but the subject’s mind naturally sheds its ability to develop new sexual skills or comfort zones, physical or social. Accordingly, their energy levels remain at peak capacity and potency - forever.”
Ziratha paused for a beat, letting the crowd of succubi sitting in front of her drink that in.
“In short,” she concluded, “they’re helpless perma-virgins. Isn’t that right, Vivi?”
Vivi blushed an incredibly deep red and looked down at the floor, but nodded.
“So!” Ziratha clapped her hands. “It’s safe to say that we’re ready to move into pre-production. Soon enough, each and every one of you could have one of my devices in your very own hands - assuming you’re willing to provide me with funding, of course. What do you say, ladies? A future of infinite, renewable energy awaits us!”
As expected, the auditorium was immediately filled with thunderous applause.
The age of the Succubus Energy Crisis was over.
The age of perma-virgin mortals and succubus dominance was about to begin.

Genesis 38 - Tamar : It is a sin to deny people fair treatment & they are justified to find ways to get what they deserve
The story of Tamar interrupts the story of Joseph and his coat of many colors, which means it is often skipped over, in part to follow the story of Joseph and also because it is an uncomfortable story.
————————————————————
Judah has 3 sons. He arranges for his oldest son to marry a Canaanite woman named Tamar. His oldest son dies without Tamar having children.
As per their tradition of levirate marriages, the brother of a man who dies without children is permitted and encouraged to marry the widow and any children that comes from that marriage are considered to belong to the deceased brother. Judah assigns Tamar to be wife of his second son who is named Onan.
Onan has sex with Tamar but pulls out and spills his semen on the ground rather than possibly impregnate her. Why would he do this? Under their tradition of primogeniture, Judah’s wealth would be divided among his 3 sons, but with the oldest getting double what the others receive. This meant the oldest would inherit 1/2 of all Judah has, the two younger brothers would each get 1/4. With the oldest son dead, if Tamar has a son, he would inherit his father’s share. However, if Tamar doesn’t have a son, then Onan would move into the spot of the oldest son and inherit 2/3 of Judah’s wealth.
Onan dies and Tamar still doesn’t have a child, so tradition would be for her to go to the final brother. Judah is worried that if Tamar marries his final son, then he will also die, perhaps Judah sees Tamar as the common denominator in the deaths of his two oldest sons. Judah tells Tamar to go back to her father's home and live as a widow.
Judah’s wife dies. The scriptures say he was comforted, I think this is meaning he did the requisite mourning period.
Tamar finds out it is time for Judah to shear his sheep, and she puts her plan into motion. The local fertility cult had women who had sex with worshipers as a way to ensure the land's fertility, and Tamar dressed like one of these women, which included wearing a veil to hide her face, then she waits along the road that leads to where Judah’s sheep are located. Judah, who hasn’t had sex since his wife died, sees Tamar and wants to have sex with her and in exchange offers to give her a young goat. He doesn’t have the young goat with him, so to assure that Judah will send the goat, Tamar asks that he leave his staff, seal, and cord.
Judah later sends one of his workers with the young goat, except he can’t find the woman in this consecrated role, and the villagers say there hasn’t been such a woman at the local shrine for some time.
In 3 months, reports come to Judah that Tamar is pregnant from prostituting herself out for money. He is outraged and orders for her to be burned to death.
Tamar produces the staff, seal, and cord, and announces these belong to the man who impregnated her and asks if Judah recognizes who these belong to. Judah admits to what he did, and takes care of Tamar and the twins she is pregnant with, although he never sleeps with her again, so it sounds like he does not marry her.
————————————————————
This is a weird story. I have some observations.
Judah is pretty much a failure as patriarch of the tribe of Judah and this is really the story of how Tamar rescued this tribe and became the matriarch of the people of Judah.
All the men in this family, by treating Tamar this way, risked the continuation of this family's line by putting in jeopardy the creation of the next generation.
—————————
In their society, the value of a woman is her virginity and her ability to bear children, and she will be provided for by either her father or her husband.
Judah’s family has left her valueless. Tamar is no longer a maiden. Onan denied her the opportunity for children. After Onan's death, Judah denies her the opportunity to marry his youngest. They've put her in a precarious position.
—————————
In Genesis 37, the chapter preceding this story, Judah is the one who came up with the idea of selling Joseph into slavery and telling their father that Joseph is dead, causing their father immense grief. It feels a bit like karma that in this story Judah loses two of his sons and he experiences the same grief at losing them as his father.
—————————
Some Christians have used the story of Onan to argue that masturbation is sinful because it also results in spilling the man's seed on the ground, not in the vaginal canal. In other words, it's sex which can't result in pregnancy.
The scripture seems clear that the sin of Onan isn’t that his semen hit the ground, but that Onan refused to impregnate Tamar, which was his duty to his dead brother. Onan broke the contract to raise up children to his deceased brother. Onan used Tamar for his sexual pleasure and/or as a way to disgrace his dead brother. Blocking Tamar from having children would result in Onan receiving his brother’s inheritance for himself, essentially robbing Tamar.
It is strange to use this story to teach masturbation is a sin as there was no masturbation mentioned in the story. Masturbate to your heart’s content as long as it isn’t hurting anyone.
—————————
When Tamar heard that Judah was going to shear his sheep, that seemed to convey important information, like shearing sheep isn't the only thing that happens at this time.
It makes me think of cowboys on the cattle drives who would receive their lump sum payment at the end of the trail when the cattle are sold, and many of them would immediately go looking to spend it on booze and women. Perhaps it is similar in that having all this wool to sell is an economic windfall and vices can be afforded.
It is interesting there is no condemnation of Judah for soliciting the prostitute. However, when he learned that Tamar had prostituted herself, he is furious and demands that she be burned to death. It shows the double standard of patriarchy. It was fine for Judah to use a woman for sex, but unthinkable for a woman in his family to be engaged in that activity. What is acceptable depends on which side of the patriarchal system you find yourself. Women at that time were viewed as property, and being a harlot, even a religious one, dramatically reduces the value of the woman.
—————————
It wasn't happenstance that Tamar required Judah to hand over his seal, staff, and cord. These are the symbol of his family and his tribe. The seal is used to mark his property. These items are highly valuable, and by handing them over, he is putting the future of his family in the hands of the sacred prostitute. It is reminiscent of Esau selling his birthright to satisfy his hunger. Judah was satisfying a different hunger.
—————————
Judah admits to what he did and agrees to take care of Tamar. He recognized the wrong he did and took steps to fix it, so in a way he redeems himself in some measure. This is considered justice and a fulfilling of what is owed to Tamar.
—————————
The sin of this story was not prostitution, it wasn’t sex outside of marriage, it wasn’t masturbation or birth control. They failed to take care of Tamar and meet their obligations to her, that is the sin. They had an obligation to care for someone in a vulnerable position.
—————————
This family has many generations of women who are infertile, but who finally have a son who grows up to save the nation. Think of Sarah, Rebekah, Rachel, Elizabeth, and Hannah. Although, since the common denominator is the males from the same family line, perhaps it's not the women who are infertile.
While not infertile, Tamar is similar in that she is unable to have children due to the men of this family. Tamar uses trickery and extra-marital sex to seize the means of reproduction, and she was declared righteous for doing so.
This Canaanite woman lived up to all the traditional roles expected of her, but she was betrayed by the patriarchy. Perhaps they did this because she wasn't an Israelite, but rather than polluting the tribe, she lifts it up. She became the one to carry on Judah’s lineage through her children.
—————————
A queer application of this is we need to take care of the people around us, especially those more vulnerable and on the margins of society.
Many laws are being passed to deny basic rights and decency to queer people, especially trans individuals. Do we stand up for these vulnerable groups of people and oppose this legislation?
It’s okay for non-queer people to get gender-affirming care. For example, hormone blockers if puberty comes too early or to treat the symptoms of PCOS, testosterone to boost sex drive, hormone replacement therapy for menopause, breast reduction or enhancement surgery, hair transplants, Viagra, injections of filler to plump up lips and bums, and the list goes on and on. Cisgender people affirming their gender through healthcare is commonplace.
But for queer people to seek gender-affirming healthcare, that's not seen as the same. Laws target trans people to forbid them accessing gender-affirming care.
When I read that Judah thought it was fine for him to pay a woman for sex, but terrible for Tamar to be paid by a man for sex, it reminded me of how those in power and positions of privilege often allow for themselves things they deny to others. We live in a cis-normative and heteronormative society and gender-affirming healthcare is easily accessible for those in the majority. Meanwhile, the same health treatments for a queer person are tightly controlled and difficult to access. Estrogen is readily available to cis women as a hormonal contraceptive from their doctor, yet extremely hard to get hold of for trans women, who must go through a specialist gender clinic and a psychiatric assessment to access the same drug.
Most trans healthcare is actually cis healthcare. Very few of the speech and language therapists, laser hair-removal specialists, or surgeons constructing penises for trans men, originally trained to offer their services to trans people. Their services were for cis people first, and then adapted for trans people.
Cis people would be very upset if the government severely limited or outlawed their access to these treatments. Why are they upset that queer people receive gender-affirming healthcare? Perhaps it’s not the healthcare that they have a problem with, but it's about their own discomfort with queer people.
Just as Judah didn't have an issue with sex outside of marriage for himself but was ready to kill Tamar for essentially the same thing, many people in our society are ready to shame, bully, outlaw and even cause the death of queer people for accessing treatments available to everyone else.
—————————
Another queer application for queer Mormons is we can relate to growing up being promised that we would be married and have a family, but then being denied those blessings and reminded of it at every turn.
Like Tamar, queer members have to make families in unconventional ways, and we get shamed and labeled a sinner because of it.
Eventually Tamar’s choices were validated and she was honored to become a foremother of Jesus Christ. One day queer Latter-day Saints will receive the blessings we were promised and be able to stay in the Church. In the meantime, we need to be persistent like Tamar to get the blessings we deserve.
