Fic: "On the Table" 2/3

[veronica-rich.livejournal.com]

Title: "On the Table" (part 2 of 3)
(Part 1 can be found here)
Chars: The Boys, a canon guest star, L/R
Rating: R
Disclaimer: I don't own the concept or the boys, just the thoughts they inspire.
Summary: Spoilers for RDX series through "Entangled." Lister has his work cut out for him convincing Rimmer he doesn't think of him as an object to be lost in a poker game. Even though he totally did.
A/N: Inspired by missflibble's Between the Sheets, and a sort-of sequel to that; thanks for the inspiration! Non-betaed, but opinions offered by metalkatt and kronette; all mistakes are my own.

Faced with the prospect of being without Rimmer for an even longer stretch of time, possibly never again, had decided Lister’s feelings remarkably fast.
