Hi guys,

*waves* Newbie (of sorts) alert. I go by Carmilla online. I've been a slash fan for years and a Red Dwarf fan for even longer, but I've never really ventured far into the fandom, despite being entranced by the Rimmer/Lister subtext (and catering to the odd slashy thought about Lister/Cat). However, having started to collect the DVDs and watched the show in order for the first time ever, I'm now in urgent need of fanfic... I may even get around to writing some, time and exams permitting. In the meantime, any recs you have would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. I remember reading a fic a couple of years back that was Rimmer/Lister slash pre-Legion. It essentially had Lister talking a sexually frustrated Rimmer through a fantasy where they were touching each other instead of themselves. I remember it being very sweet and gentle, and also decidedly hot. Does this ring any bells for anyone? Anybody have a link?

I think I know which fic you're talking about...but I can't remember who wrote it or where it is! You should joing the Red Dwarf Slash Society on Yahoo groups, if you haven't already..there are hundreds of yummy slashy fics there :)

Yay, ML pimpage!

Hi Carmilla, I don't know which fic this is either, but if you come to the RDSS and ask, hopefully someone will know.

Welcome, Carmilla! No, the fic doesn't ring a bell - but I did read one set after Legion, where Lister invites Rimmer to touch him. It's called Hard Light - that's all I can give you, I'm afraid!

I'm a Cat/Lister shipper myself. ^__^ Hope you like it here! Chow! :) *little wave and Rimmer salute*

I recall writing one similar to that years and years ago... but I doubt mine is what you're refering to. It was written in a time when I was still re-learning how to write. It was called A Bird In Hand. (And the quality left a lot to be desired.) /winces/

Could I have a link? I'm not sure whether it's the same one, but I'd like to read it anyway. I love pre-Legion stuff, even though it's so incredibly difficult to write.
