Fic: Psirens. PG.

[roadstergal.livejournal.com]

I've had this idea running around my head, and it finally... er.. congealed. Psirens gapfiller.

She was sly; she was patient.

Crit is always good. Written for fanfic100. Little Damn Table.

Soft ones!!!
Wow, that was great!

locomotive apparatus to the reproductive organ, then up to the speech-synthesis device

Ah, lovely. What an interesting creature. I don't think I've ever read a fic with this POV sort of before...
I've always wonderd about GELF's in Red Dawrf. Who the hell bred those things?! Still, much entertaiment all round.

Yeah, it's odd. The Polymorph was a military project, so maybe the Psirens were, too - and they went (dramatic Kryten voice) insaaane. :)

The Psirens were insectoid, so when I tried to think about how they'd see humans, I figgered the lack of an exoskeleton would make an appearance.

There are two moments in VI when Rimmer has an odd look on his face that makes me double-take. One is the open-mouthed one that he has when he calls the others' attention to the missing Psiren - it might have been fear at the Escaped Alien, but to me, it looks like he just saw... something. The other is the morning-after scene in Legion, when he asks why Legion is so concerned with fulfilling their every desire; he looks oddly uncomfortable, and does not make eye contact with Lister.

Well, that was a ramble. Er, thanks for the feedback. :)

The Kinitawowe puzzle me the most. They explained the Polymorph, I can understand the pleasure GELF (though it's a slightly disturbing idea), Your explanation for the Psiresns seems plausible, but the Kinitawowe? Well, it makes it all the funnier. I liked the nod to their origin you had in "Spanners". Highly amusing.

Odd looks, gaps, I love those!

Now that's one hell of a mental picture. Your writing seems so effortless. Great job!

Good fic.

Hee! Thanks, glad you liked.

Ahahaha! Great job! The alien POV was wonderful, along with the Rimmer-expression-explaination. And yes, I would like to meet the fellow who made those GELFs.

Thanks! Perverting unexplained bits of canon for fun and... well, no profit, just fun.

So wait; if this psiren is female (for lack of a better word/concept), does that make Lister/Psiren a het pairing? ;)

I like the use of the word "husk".

and gently pushed the minds of the soft ones further towards the conflict that was already brewing.
Aaahhh....

Such a plethora of vulnerabilities snaked through his mind, a twisted tangle of neuroses that would taste so sweet in the head of a soft one.
Like a Rimmershake! (Sorry.)

from the locomotive apparatus to the reproductive organ, then up to the speech-synthesis device.
Heee!

The muscle that aided in speech had some significance to the not-soft one, and so she made her assumed form move it, running it around the word-forming devices, slowly,
Linguistic porn! :D

Clever one, this. I enjoyed! :D

Well, the original sirens were female, and G/N seemed to like the idea that they were female-ish... and not only would it make Lister/Psiren a het pairing, it would make Rimmer/Psiren-as-Lister a het pairing, too, wouldn't it?

I like my Rimmer shaken, not stirred. :)

Excessively clinical linguistic porn!

*blush* Thank ye!
