Title: Feline
Pairing: Cat/Lister
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: Don't own, don't make money from.
Spoilers: None
Notes: There was a request for more Cat/Lister. Well, why not? 100 words exactly, 'cause I'm old school like that.



"You have got to stop doing this!" Lister shifted on the bed, pulling the blanket up to his chin, watching the dark shape slithering in beside him. "Kryten is getting wise to ya; he was asking all sortsa questions this morning."

The feline form snorted. "Is he here?"

Lister's hands relaxed a little, letting the blanket fall. "No."

"Then why do you care?"

Naked skin brushed against Lister's own as Cat somehow managed to maneuver himself underneath the covers. "D... don't you care?" He stuttered.

The soft vibration of a purr filled the small space they were in. "Bud, I never care."

Cat/Lister nooo! :)

So in character though, and the last line is so fantastic.

Cats always jump up on the bed, as I'm learning.

Thank you! You know, I can totally see Cat/Lister happening in a sort of 'what the hell is going on' sort of way (from Lister's point of view.) He'd be terrified, but he'd go along with it. There's definitely some attraction there, but in a casual sort of way. Lister would never instigate it, and he'd be terrified all the way through... but it could happen. ;)

Admittedly, when 'Red Dwarf slash' springs to mind, Lister/Rimmer is right there, bouncing behind it. I'd never really entertained the notion of Cat and Lister...but fics like this tend to change my mind.

I guess it's another one of those character anomalies - Cat should, in theory, hate Lister for being so...scruffy, slobby, dirty and wholly uncat like - but sure that doesn't stop them getting at it like rabbits.

Good writing by the way, I just realised I didn't actually leave anything close to a review...

[kahvi.livejournal.com]

Yes, but hate takes effort, and Cat can't be bothered with that. Sure, Lister isn't as good looking as he is, but then again, who is?

Thanks for reading and feeding back; glad you liked it!

YES!! *dances* C/L = My OTP ^^ *happiness* You rock.
And I'm totally with kahvi. This could so happen.

I happen to know there's another Cat/Lister in the works from the lovely and talented smaych. ;)

Glad you enjoyed this one, thanks for reading and feeding back!

Thank you!

And he doesn't. And he has fun not doing it.
