Mature momcest - feedback/input wanted

[AfternoonStu]

Hello all.

I had an idea for a story that I would like to develop and eventually write, but so far it's only the germ of an idea and I would love some feedback and suggestions on how this over soul be crafted.

In short, it's a momcest story, but with a mature angle. The soon is the protagonist, and he is in his late thirties, happily married and with a few kids. His mother is around 65-70, and naturally past her prime. Her hair is grey and her wrinkles are difficult to hide, but she is in pretty good shape for her age

Their relationship is not sexual as the story begins. The son has had plenty of fantasies, but never thought our tried to make them real. He has jerked with her panties when he was living at home and he has spied on her sunbathing and showing, but with time his fantasies have if not give away, then at least subsided. He is happily married and has a wonderful sex life with his wife, so there is nothing that makes him yearn for other women. He has always wondered if his mother ever suspected anything, but they have never even skirted the subject.

In this story, he is driving to his mother's house to help her with soon heavy chores. During this visit, they somehow cone around to discussing his old fantasies and it leads to them having sex in her bed. I have plenty of ideas for the actual sex, but how should they get to that point? Most stories of this type (including my own) have a very quick turning point, where the mother suddenly becomes a nympho who says "fuck me, son". No, I want them to gradually get to the point where they kiss passionately and reach a point of no return where she leads him to his bed.

So, any suggestions? What actions and dialogue can get this pair to the inevitable taboo act?

Maybe something that happens over time. Start with a small discovery and a slightly embarassing discussion. Maybe Mom was cleaning out Son's old room, in prep to turn it into something she could use - sewing room, maybe. She finds something - an old pair of crusty panties she remembered loosing, perhaps. Sometime during the heavy chores - maybe that's when they find the panties, when the son breaks down his old bed? - they start the discussion.

Over time both become aware that each are interested, or at least fantasizing about it.

It'd be a slow build, but sometimes that's what's needed.

I think, as UsuallyPresent suggests, the key is time. Instead of having them have sex the same day they first bring up the fantasy in conversation, draw out the build up over several days and several conversations. That way the desire builds up, more believably, during the periods in between their interactions. First conversation, the son brings up something that embarrasses mom but piques her curiosity. Next conversation, she brings it up again to clear the air, but instead the interest grows on both sides. And so on.

Two points:

One, I agree with the "give it time" approach already advocated. But the problem with that is that it gives for a boring few pages while things are building up. So I like to start a story "in media res," meaning in the middle of the action: Mom and Sonny fucking away! Then you zoom in on the main character (I assume the son, but it could be Mom) thinking back to how this all started, and tell the story from the beginning. Anyway, that's my preference, but it's only one approach.

Two: how do they go from non-sexual to sexual? Presumably Sonny had a Dad at one point. Maybe he's been dead for ten years now (or some type of anniversary) and it's making Mom sad. Son consoles her with a hug, and that's it. Until the next time. She's sad again, he hugs her for a little longer, a little tighter. She hugs back even tighter. Next time, she's sad and a little bit horny ("It's been so long!") Tighter hugs, a little squirming, and a kiss on the cheek goes awry and ends up a kiss on the mouth. Then the mouths open and... well as the song says, one thing leads to another.

Good luck!

Thank you all for great input! You get my point, I want to create a slow build-up which can be somewhat believable. And yes, I am aware of the opposite problem then, that a reader might lose interest before the story gets to the action. I did think about starting in media res, but unsure if I have the writing skills to pull it off... But I guess that's what editors and revisions are for anyway.

Good idea also with the chore being something that leads to the discovery of something incriminating! It have me an idea that could be interesting, not a pair of panties (which would also be exciting) but something along those lines. Something that hints at the son's old desire for his mother.
