Title: Where Power Isn’t Needed
Summary: Set during the Series 4 episode ‘White Hole.’ On a ship with no working electricity, Cat and Lister learn that the smallest shred of independence, no matter how mad it may be, can be OK.
Rating: PG-13 (nothing graphic, no worries!)
Author: EllieET
Genre: Romance. Slightly humourous too.
Warnings: Slash. My first fanfic. Pairing that isn’t Lister/Rimmer (although I do ship them!)
Spoilers: White Hole, Series 4, and the Pilot episode, which I’ve researched but never seen. ^__^
Disclaimer: (Turns out empty pockets) Nope. Grant and Naylor’s pockets, however, are full to the brim.

Having only seen a few episodes of RD, and having to sweet-talk my parents into letting me watch and tape it on Monday and Saturday nights, I’m not sure how you guys will react to this. I was going to wait a while longer before writing fanfiction, but on watching ‘White Hole’ on Monday night, and observing the small ‘bike’ scene between Cat and Lister, it seemed to me that Cat became more caring and serious than usual in order to calm Lister down. Then I thought up this ficlet. Tell me if I get the smallest thing wrong, and please bear in mind I’ve seen hardly any episodes. Okay?
