Oooh, lovely. I really liked the way the two of you handle the characters, no matter what type of fic you're writing, there's always a lot of awesome Lister-Rimmer interaction that just sucks me right in. And, to be honest, the subject matter was beautifully handled - the moral issues of truthful fantasy-crushing.

That said, reading this at uni probably wasn't the best idea, though I'm sure my startled gasps and small giggles were of much amusement to those around me.

Thank you so much! :D

Scott Adams (of Dilbert fame) says in his guide to creating humor that something which elicits a physical response is a keeper, as far as humor is concerned. Looks like we did well, then! :D
