A not so Unique Idea

[alias x]

This idea was inspired by Hallowed Eve's An Unique Idea. I was just thinking, are there an idea people who have submitted ideas, had them implemented, then wished they could see other implementations? Whether you have a variation on the same idea, you absolutely loved a story and want to see where someone else could take it, or you were disappointed in the author's interpretation of your idea (please don't say which one you fall under), I'd think this would give interesting results.

For the sake of avoiding idea theft, only the person who came up with the idea for the story should post. I assume authors would make the smart choice of not reading the stories the ideas inspired until writing their own implementation.

So, anyone have any ideas they want to see in a new light?

Oh, yes.

A while ago I posted the idea below (in these exact words) and someone wrote a story based on it, which I enjoyed very much <Sorry about the (please don't say which one you fall under)>.

However, I do not believe that any basic idea can be implemented only in one way, so someone else's take on this would be welcome.

Right, try this:

There are two couples who organise "Murder Weekends". One couple act as the organisers and one of the other couple, who masquerade as participants, is always the murderer. Couples alternate and sometimes the wife or sometimes the husband is the murderer, etc. etc. etc.

They decide to have a "Rape Weekend."

Wife of organiser comes into room of one participating couple while husband is in bar.

She explains that, just as there is no real murder at a "Murder Weekend" there is no actual rape at a "Rape Weekend". However, rape victims can be questioned, while murder victims cannot. Therefore, to make it real, a man will come into her room in a few minutes and tear her night-dress and generally be obnoxious, but will not actually harm her. This is all voluntary, explains the organising wife.

Woman says OK and curtains are drawn to darken room and woman gets into bed.

Build tension a little here by making her wait and give her thoughts.

Man comes in and ... fake rape scene from there!

Maybe she lets him shag her, "for realism"?
Maybe she panics and fights for real and he leaves bruises?
Maybe she panics and fights for real and he actually rapes her?

Husband's reaction could be good/bad.

Maybe the organiser's wife says the same thing to more than one?

Maybe the others try to solve it and get turned on and various "meetings" happen?

I love this. Could be another "writer's challenge" here as well.

And, I especially agree with I assume authors would make the smart choice of not reading the stories the ideas inspired until writing their own implementation!!

So, that said, I started a thread called: Is it March Yet? The original purpose was to brainstorm ideas for the Earth Day holiday contest that starts on March 25, but these story ideas could still be used in general.

To my knowledge, none of them are a story yet, though. Frankly, I don't even know if any story idea I've offered up has ever been written yet.
