Gay smoking fetish stories: cigars, vapes and consequences

Why the smoke matters

The smoking fetish lives in the ritual. The flick of a lighter, the first long draw, the slow exhale and the look a man gives you through the haze, as if he has all night and you don't. Size play takes that confidence and gives it teeth. In these stories smoke is never just smoke: it's a spell, a weapon or a warning.

It plays out in three main ways:

• Smoke that shrinks. In Shrink Files Issue 4: Vape, Shrink, Feet a brilliant postgrad's mint vape turns a hulking football star into his plaything, one puff at a time. In Scally, Smoke, Shrink a giant scally, a collector's night out and one very dangerous vape do the rest.
• Smoke that's worshipped. Tiny men gazing up at a giant who smokes like he owns the sky. Gentle or contemptuous, depending on his mood.
• Smoke that consumes. The far end of the scale. In Cigar Transformation you don't watch the cigar. You become it.

Cigars bring weight and ceremony, cigarettes bring attitude, and vapes bring the modern menace of a cloud you don't see coming until you're already smaller.

Who's smoking matters as much as what. A scally on a night out, a leather-clad landlord at the door, a cursed alpha king on his way down, a giant blowing a slow cloud over a man no taller than his lighter. Some of these men use the smoke to take power; some lose everything while they're still holding the cigarette. The haze hides plenty, but never who's in charge.

Neighbours in the haze

Smoking runs straight into scallies and chavs, where a cigarette is practically part of the tracksuit, and into transformation whenever a man ends up as something to be smoked. It's a regular companion to giants, and to leather masters who like a cigar with their gear.
