Lister/Petersen?

[laurenthemself]

There's been a query over on Fandom Wank (yep, RD wank, I am so glad it wasn't anyone from here who started it) about Lister/Petersen. I'm sure someone here's written it. Can anyone confirm or deny this?

Also, telegramsam passed the remark that 'Slash writers in this fandom REALLY need to branch out some. Lister/Rimmer is fine and all but it's EVERYTHING that's out there. :\' I choose to take this as a challenge. Come on, ladies and gentlemen and mechanoids and holograms, let's prove to the world that there's more to the fandom than Lister/Rimmer!

<self-pimp mode>My own site, it's Practically Canon, has Mr Flibble/Rimmer, Ace/Rimmer, Rimmer/Kryten, Lister/Cat, Kochanski/Rimmer/Lister, Rimmer/McIntyre, Kochanski/McGruder, Kochanski/(female) Holly/Rimmer among others, should you need any inspiration.</self-pimp mode>

CONTEST: Rarepairs and Crackpairs

[laurenthemself]

A few people commented to my last post asking about a rare pairing contest and the notion tickled my fancy, so.

reddwarfslash Rare and Crack Pairings Fic Contest

• Pairings must NOT be Lister/Rimmer. This includes alternate universe versions of both of them. Other than that, anything goes.
  
• Entries are to be submitted as posts to this comm by Sunday 31st of May.
  
• Entries are to be marked in the header as a contest entry, and should be labelled as either a rarepair or a crackpair. It is the author's discretion which category their story belongs in, but for example I would call Lister/Cat a rarepair and Cat/Talkie Toaster (now there's one I don't think anyone's done) as a crackpair.
  
• The term 'pair' does NOT mean you are limited to two people.
  
• Being as this is a slash comm, I would expect slashiness, but if you end up with a three(or more)some and a person of the opposite gender is included, that's fine.
  
• Original characters do not count towards the pairing.

Once the closing date has passed, entries will be put into a poll and voted on, and the winners will receive nifty banners proudly proclaiming their rare or crack pairing prowess.

Go nuts!

Here I Dreamt I Was An Architect

The relationship between Rimmer and Lister has it's ups and downs. Lister ruins the relationship then fixes it by writing a lovely letter to Rimmer.
