Interactive fiction for adults
Interactive erotic stories
An interactive erotic story is adult fiction where you decide what happens next. You read a scene, pick a direction, and the story goes that way. It’s a choose-your-own-adventure book for grown-ups. On metime, each branch is written when you choose it, so you’re never limited to the paths someone planned in advance.
The kinds of interactive erotica
“Interactive” covers a few quite different things:
- Branching stories and gamebooks. A writer plans every path in advance: two or three choices per scene, and a fixed set of endings. Each path is someone’s careful work, but you can only go where they thought to go.
- Community branching sites. Readers add new chapters to each other’s stories, so the tree keeps growing. There’s a lot to read, and the quality varies from chapter to chapter.
- NSFW CYOAs. In many online communities, a “CYOA” is something else again: one long image or page of options where you build a character or a scenario, often by spending points. You make lots of choices, but there’s no story to read afterwards unless you write it yourself.
- Text games and visual novels. Choices tracked with stats and routes, often with pictures, closer to a game than a book.
- AI-written stories. The newest kind. The writer is an AI, so the branches don’t have to exist before you choose. The next chapter is written after you pick, including choices nobody planned.
How metime does it
- Ask for a story in your own words (
snowed in, an older guy, slow
), or tap Surprise me and let it choose from your tastes. - Pick one of eight ideas. They arrive one by one, each with names, a place and a reason to start.
- Read chapter one as it’s written.
- Steer. At the end of every chapter, take one of the suggested directions, write your own, or let it carry on. You can also leave a note for a later chapter, rewind, edit, or branch into another version.
- Talk to them. Message the characters, or call them. They remember the story up to the chapter you’re on, and nothing after.
You also choose how warm it gets: Clean (the door closes), Steamy (charged, not explicit) or Explicit (written plainly). Pace is yours too. Slow burn is a choice, not a rule.
Try a branch
Here’s the end of a short opening scene, written for this page, and three ways it could go. Pick one to read it.
Nadia tunes pianos for a living. Theo Okafor bought a 1920s upright at an estate sale, and called her because three keys stick and middle C rattles. It’s eight on a Thursday evening, his apartment is half unpacked boxes, and he hasn’t left the room in forty minutes.
“You can watch,” she says, without looking up. “People usually get bored.”
“I’m not bored.”
She plays a chord, listens, and turns a tuning pin a fraction. “Then sit down. You’re making the floor creak.”
He sits on the arm of the sofa, close enough that when she stops to listen, she can hear him breathing.
What happens next?
Pick a direction, or write your own.
No. 1She asks him to play something
“I don’t play,” Theo says. “I bought it because it was beautiful.”
“Everyone plays something.” Nadia slides along the bench to make room. After a long pause he sits down beside her and picks out a song his mother used to hum, one finger, badly.
She doesn’t laugh. She sets her left hand on the keys below his and plays the bass line under it, and for the first time tonight the old piano sounds worth the money. He stops before the song ends, and looks at her instead of the keys.
No. 2She says she’s done for tonight
She closes the lid at nine. “The rest needs a part I don’t have. I can come back Saturday.”
He walks her to the door, and holds it, and doesn’t quite open it. “I’ll make dinner on Saturday. If that’s not strange.”
“It’s strange,” Nadia says. She takes the door handle from him and opens it herself. “I’ll come hungry.”
Yours“The power goes out.”
The lights go at 8:14, the whole block at once. In the dark the piano is only a shape, and Theo’s voice is closer than she expected. “There are candles in one of these boxes. Probably.”
They find them by phone light, in a box marked KITCHEN. Nadia finishes the last key by candlelight, because she doesn’t leave a job half done. When she straightens up, he’s holding the candle so she can see. Neither of them reaches for a phone.
Or write your own
In the app, the next chapter is written after you choose, so these are only three of the ways it could go. A direction you type in is taken just as seriously as a suggested one, and the characters remember it afterwards.
Why read it this way
- The pace is yours. Linger on the build-up, or skip to the part you came for.
- The characters still act like people. You steer the story, but they keep their own reasons, nerves and histories, so a turn you choose still has to make sense for them.
- It’s yours alone. Nobody else reads your story. It isn’t published, shared or sold.
Every character is an adult, and every scene is between adults who clearly want to be there. Some things are never written, whatever you ask: see the content policy. For the romance side of the same idea, read choose your own romance; for the tool itself, see the AI smut writer.
Questions
What is interactive erotica?
Interactive erotica is adult fiction where the reader makes choices that change what happens. It ranges from branching stories written in advance to AI-written stories, where each next chapter is written after you choose.
What does NSFW CYOA mean?
CYOA stands for “choose your own adventure”, and NSFW means adult content. In many online communities an NSFW CYOA is an image or page of options for building a character or scenario. Elsewhere it means an adult story where you pick what happens next, which is what metime does.
Can I write my own choices?
Yes. At the end of every chapter you can take a suggested direction or write your own in plain words. You can also leave a note for a later chapter, rewind, edit, or branch into another version.
Who writes the stories?
AI writes every idea and chapter when you ask for it; no person writes them. Every request and passage is checked against our content policy before you see it.
Is it free?
The first three chapters of your first two stories are free, with no card. After that there are three plans, from $6.99 to $14.99 every 30 days. Paid plans open soon; until then, nothing is charged.
Is it private?
Yes. Your stories are only for you. They’re never published, shown to other readers or sold, there are no ads or third-party trackers, and your card statement shows a discreet name.
