....and also my first attempt at LJ cutting...... so this might turn out terribly wrong...
and unfortunately I've found a problem straight away..... Chapter 1 is too long for LiveJournal to handle..... so it'll have to be in two parts

Anyway.... i'm new to this community.... I've been lurking around, reading your fanfics and generally loving them all. Red Dwarf slash fans are such a talented bunch on people.

Like I said, this is my first attempt at RD fanfiction, and it's going to be multi-chaptered, so except lengthy chapters. The idea came to me after I got bored one evening and, whilst reading some other RD fanfics, I made myself a playlist on iTunes comprised of songs that either reminded me of Rimmer and Lister's relationship (both canon and in various fanfics), or would make up a good basis for fanfiction of my own.
This then made me finally decide to actually write my own based on most of the songs in the playlist, each chapter based on a certain song. If you'd like to hear any of the songs then please tell me and I'll upload them somewhere.
So here it is:

Title: Pretences and Sincerities

Pairing: Rimmer/Lister
Genre: Angst/Romance (Not much romance in the first chapter mind you)
Rating: PG (For now)

Summary: [Set between Rimmerworld and Out of Time –with references to Terrorform)

A few days after leaving Rimmerworld, the Starbug crew have neither seen nor heard anything from Rimmer. Lister, being the compassionate soul he is, is worried and comes to the decision that he should see what he can do about it. However, will Rimmer accept this strange display of concern? And will Lister learn some things from Rimmer that he’s not sure he wanted to know?

Song Inspiration: (don’t)Leave me alone – Ayumi Hamasaki

Spoilers: Rimmerworld, Terrorform (and possibly any other episode pre-Out of Time)
Length: 2,651
