Fic: Psirens. PG.

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.

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!
