*twitches*

notsane!Kryten is scareing me.

Also, I hate your cliffhangers and I think they should digh. I wish to petition for continuous downwards scrolling.And someone really needs to give that computer a swift kick. I mean, really, she has autopilot. She should just leave on her own and bugger off. =\

Oh, he is loony... but he was in VII, wasn't he? Argh. And going just by time-at-it, that goes x a few million for Ace's Computer.

Meep! Well, we had a quick conference, and have determined that the next one will not be a cliffhanger. Well, not as bad a cliffhanger.

Thank you for the feedback!

[shivvlan.livejournal.com]

Hurruh for a potentially none cliffhanging ending!

Meanwhile, orange!Rimmer the picture kept stareing at me so i turned him into a wallpaper. I hope you don't mind, it leans heavily on stealing most of the start of your fik (lovely txt wallpapers). I would have uploaded it so you and Khavi could see it, but I had to save it as a .png file to get the colours to stay true and hense it's over 1mb and photobucket won't host it.
The wallpaper is only for personal use, since orange!Rimmer wants to stare so much. If either of you want it, I can e-mail it to you. Pending e-mail addresses. ^^;

[roadstergal.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'd love to see it! My email is at the top of all of my solo fics, if you're ever looking for it in the future - roadstergal@gmail.com.

[kahvi.livejournal.com]

Oh, I would love to see it too, because it was hell to make him. I do rather like the result though. ;)

kat (at) saers (dot) com. :)

[zekkass.livejournal.com]

May I jump in and ask for it as well? My email's cena @ ringwald. org.

[kahvi.livejournal.com]

There would be rather a LOT of continuous downwards scrolling though, are you sure you are up to it? I mean, we're talking carpal-tunnel-inducing continuous downwards scrolling here? ;)

Hehehe - so noted! :)

[eviltigerlily.livejournal.com]

Bring it on, you.

[shivvlan.livejournal.com]

For a fik that long, of the quality you two write I would happily get carpal-tunnel in both hands, my feet, my nose and any other part of my body that could manage the downwards scrolling. =P
I'm just greedy though. You're fiks to me are liek the fiks you always search for. pr0n with plot and when they 'get together' the fik doesn't just end. In 99% of stories if the char's go pr0ning then the fik is over and they're obviously together, forever. =\ I find it frustrating.
Then there's yours and Roadstergal's fiks :heartness:

[kahvi.livejournal.com]

*goes shy* Oooh.. Eeeh... *blush* Thank you. *blushes again*

[merry-loon.livejournal.com]

Um... Yeah. I don't really know where to begin, seeing as I just spent the past hour and a half reading this entire arc. I generally don't read a lot of the fics posted in this community (Awful, yes, I know). I just get tired of reading sweet, funny, sexy even, but ultimately disappointing in that they don't go where they promise.

I was kind of blown away by this fic! You two really work well together. I was working on a fic tonight, but I took a break to check out my friends page and decided to read this fic.

I am so freaked out by Ace's Ship Computer!! But Kryten scares me more than that. He always did have the potential to be a homicidal, insane stalker-type of android, but you've really exploited that! Thanks, now whenever I watch Red Dwarf I'll be worrying that Kryten is going to kill Lister in his sleep. @_@

I'm paying attention now. I'm just not a very good fangirl sometimes. XD

I'll be watching for the next part. :)

[roadstergal.livejournal.com]

*blush* I am flattered that something I was a part of was able to pull you back! Yes, just for m'self, I can't do sweet or fluffy. But kahvi brings a certain realistic optimisim and persistance that my fics are sadly lacking, which makes her great to work with. (Well, not to mention the characters and great writing that she brings, too.)

Next part coming soon! Thank you for the feedback. :)

[kahvi.livejournal.com]

Oh wow, that is a wonderful compliment to get indeed! We did love working on this. I find myself without words really, because I'm quite overwhelmed by your praise. So thank you! *blush* I'm thankful to roadstergal for the wonderfullness she brings to our joint efforts, and for the chance she gave me to meet Rimmer. Did you know he's a smeghead? A very lovable one?

Kryten has... Issues. *cough*

Next bit coming soon!

[squiggle-bat.livejournal.com]

*whimper* Your mechanicals are freaky. Really freaky. The not-Arnold in particular was making me shudder. I'm torn, since they're scaring me enough that I probably shouldn't read these fics but at the same time I need to make sure noone's being crushed into a horribe, bloody pulp. Damn you and your cliffhangers!

Good thing you have the erotic interlude to save the day! Surely they can't be separated now, cos then they won't be able to have more mansex. I know you like the mansex... but you also like to make stories that stand in their own right as opposed to being purely vehicles of smut (sometimes...)

*whimpers a bit more*

[roadstergal.livejournal.com]

I actually had a lot of fun writing the mechanical bits that I did write for this. *meep* Kahvi's idea was just so meaty. Also, it's a bit of a strain to write Ace/Arn, as he's not the twat that Rimmer was before the influences of Rimmerworld/Out Of Time/Stoke Me A Clipper; alternate-Rimmer had no such Ace-y hangups.

Despite what you might think from reading certain people's livejournals, I do like my porn to have plot. :)

Thankee for the feedback!

[kahvi.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, I'm involved in this; which is pretty much a guarantee that things will end on a positive note. I just can't handle angsty endings. Well. Very angsty endings. My fingers start twitching, and I want to fix it. Anyway, sorry to have scared you! AltRimmer scared me too when I met him. I was like "um, yeah, let's get the hell out of here". Sadly, Lister isn't me. Not entirely. He's male, for one thing. Right, now I'm babbling.

Did someone say mansex? ;)
Yeah, porn is the spice for the quality, prime beef that the plot should be. IMO. And I like my spice hot, just like Lister. ;)

Thanks for feeding back!

[lady-draco.livejournal.com]

Er ... I have read the majority of this part but I skimmed through it because I was at work. I've been quite naughty with not commenting on your recent fics but I shall ignore my mother screeching at me to come and have dinner to make a little comment.

From what I read properly, excellent. ;) As usual. I haven't read the sexeh because I was at work but I will do either tonight or tomorrow morning (doing more partying after dinner whee).

Uh ... yes. But you know I love your stuff, even if I do have to read it with alt+tab.

Hee!

Orange Rimmer is absolutely yucky. YUCKY! Evil prick. ;)

[kahvi.livejournal.com]

Ah, the alt+tab - friend to work-readers everywhere!

Glad you liked it - I hope you'll like it even more when you read it with the sex-bits in. There's plot in them too!

Thanks hun. :)

[eviltigerlily.livejournal.com]

Um....yeah...it just went even more sisnister at the end there. I hope Computer has something extraordinarily nasty waiting in the near future. And Kryten, well....I think VII threw his charecter out of any kind of sanity, he wasn't like this in VIII damn it! Or was he he just waiting, lurking in the shadows with some evil plan, huh? huh?! *cough*
You guys weren't kidding when you said this was a plot heavy fic. Well done you. And there is porn too!

[eviltigerlily.livejournal.com]

Oh, I also like the fact the Kochanski figures out what's going on with Kryten - I think it's very fitting to her character and also the relationship between the two.
And I loved the little detail that Computer spoke to Lister, when it doesn't ever speak to anyone except Ace. Very interesting. And scary.

[kahvi.livejournal.com]

Hah, yeah, Lister totally missed that when it happened. He had no idea. That was fun. :)

[kahvi.livejournal.com]

Meaty plot with tasty, spicy porn! Like a slash curry, if you will.

Glad you're still enjoying it! :D

[zekkass.livejournal.com]

OMG. OMG.

I think I'm ready to die from happiness. Just as soon as I finish the last chapter. notsane!Kryten is awesome/scary/expected. psycho!Computer is scary. Rimmer/Lister sex is, as always, awesome to the point of XD. And Orange!Rimmer really needed someone to fix him. He was evil, and insane, but he really did deserve better.

*runs off to finish it all*

[kahvi.livejournal.com]

Poor Orange!Rimmer... He was scary as hell, but I did feel sorry for him. My reactions were pretty much like Lister's in the end; pity and sadness that it had to come to this. Rimmer thinks Lister got it all wrong, of course. ;)

Thank ye for comments! :D
