A combination of factors inspires this post.

It's the end of the Jewish month of Av, which is emotionally funny because the beginning of Av is the saddest part of the Jewish year, but after the 15th of Av that sadness dissipates- but it's not until Chodesh Elul and its focus on re-dedication in preparation for Rosh Hashanah that we get a new emotional directive. So we're in a weird glitchy gap between despair and rededication.

And I haven't written much fic lately, nothing since that gloriously weird Trekfic from a couple months ago. I'd sort of been waiting for Kaleidoscope and Remix Duello to give me an impulse to write again, but both seem to have been delayed.

And I've been listening to Regina Spektor's "Samson" a lot lately. That line "The Bible didn't mention us- not even once," so fills me with delirious intellectual joy. Doubt is such an important part of my religious experience. It might actually be the most passionate part of my interaction with Judasim.

Also, D&D was canceled tonight, so I have some time to work on things.

So between those factors, I'm accepting a particular kind of prompt for story ideas.

Suggest a Bible character and I will write him or her out of the Bible, the way Regina writes Samson and Delilah out of the Bible in "Samson". Old Testament and New are acceptable, but my preference is for characters from Tanakh simply because I know the characters better.
