Fic: Resurrection. PG.

[roadstergal.livejournal.com]

I had a mental image, and did not know what to do with it - until a conversation in kahvi's journal.

Gapfiller for Nanarchy. Spoilers up to there.

"Yer my Rimmer, aren't you?"

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

Heaven, I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
I've got several million Rimmer's cheek to cheek!

Been looking forward to this one - glad to see it! :)

As usual, much love. I would have liked some more details, and perhaps a slower build-up (look, I'm trying to concrit; it's hard!), but then again I've already written a version of this scenario in my mind, and I'm probably comparing it to that. And, of course, it is a dream, which would impact the telling of it. (See? Hard.)

I love the detail of his arm not being fixed before he did this. It's a lovely touch.

Can I just say that I really like the word "miasma"?

This one had very green eyes and a hard-planed, unscarred face.
I'd get slightly distracted in this room, I think.

OMGWTF "Spanky". Mmffph...

He grabbed two that were snogging, pulled them apart, then pushed them back together. Not his Rimmer, either of them.
This was a surprise??

Rimmer's head dropped, and Lister pressed his lips to the hologram's, running his tongue along the man's lips.
This is where I started getting suspicious. It's never that easy!

"Lucky bastard," one muttered. "Which one?"
*giggle*

Heee - turtleneck!

Nicely done, ma'am!

Ja, I was feeling frantic when I wrote it - it was kind of the things-progress-without-you-and-you're-dragged-along feeling I get in my own dreams. I'll sit on it, and mebbe come back in a bit and write it a little longer.

For some reason, I thought it was important to have him do this before he gets his arm fixed. ;)

Well, of course. Anyone is going to get distracted in that room! *boggle*

He has the silliest nicknames for Lister... and that's not even getting into the whole squirrel thing.

Nah, it's like in the dream in Blue. Rimmer would never be that easy to turn to reality in real life. ;)

The frantic goes well with Lister's mood; it works much better while he's running around, methinks. I just love that image... Running around, looking for his Rimmer. That was another nice touch, just catching his eye, and knowing.

Oh, and also; since he didn't get to actually go through with the plan at any point, I'd wager he'd try it again post VIII, once they escaped. I mean, seeing (and then losing) ressurected!Rimmer would have been enough of an encouragement, no?

That's just what I was thinkin'! :) After his arm was restored, they found Red Dwarf, and then it was all out of his hands until the end of VIII...
