A challenge!

All right. Here's the thing. Threesomes are awesome. Red Dwarf is awesome. I say, combine the two! Or three, as the case may be. I know I've got bunnies. Share inspiration in this thread! :D

Ours is a deceptive canon. Few people, except not, because there are so many variations of them. ;)

Would Rimmer want to have sex with Kochanski though? I mean, VIII!Rimmer did, but Ace!Rimmer? Hm...

[smaych.livejournal.com]

No, I don't think so. I can think of exceptional circumstances, but they're odd and sad really.

I don't like Rimmer in season VIII in the same way though. As pretty as he looks in that uniform, it feels all wrong to me.

Lol, I just thought about VIII Rimmer and our Rimmer and Lister. Now that would be confusing.

Would Rimmer have sex with himself, you think?

Hehehe... what is with that uniform! All the Rimmerfans seem to go gaga for it. :) And, well, it is wrong. And I think Lister picks up on it. (See icon - that moment just spells that out for me.) It's wrong because, first of all, it's not the same person as the hologram (obviously). And furthermore, it's, as Lister says, him as he used to be. I think I've discussed this with roadstergal before, and I think Rimmer changed even in the first few days and weeks after his death. In short, we've never met that person before, which is why we don't recognize him. </ over-analysis>

"How can you even contemplate making love to yourself?" :)

No I don't think he would under normal circumstances. I think the new Rimmer would hate the old Rimmer in a similar way to how Rimmer hated Ace. But, again, there are maybe circumstances where it could happen. I'm imagining something vaguely along the lines of him accusing the old Rimmer of being gay with Lister, as Rimmer did with Ace, and something from there but I'm not sure what. Maybe it wouldn't work. Hmm.

Would Lister? With, say, Spanners?

[kahvi.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, I think he'd be all over it. Not at first, of course. He'd have to get pretty drunk. But then again, that's never a problem where Lister is concerned.

Now that would be something worth seeing ;)

Didn't this already happen in one of your gestalt fics? The threesome with Lister/Ace/Spanners. That part was a little weird, I gotta say, but it was a really good fic overall.

[kahvi.livejournal.com]

Yeah, in Spanners. And thanks! Come to think of it, that whole story started with the idea of wanting to write a threesome. And from that, Breaking The Chain was spawned! More proof that threesomes are awesome.

One of the first ideas we - I think it was roadstergal, specifically - had for that was to have Spanners wanting to teach Lister how to please a man, to put it clichè-ishly. They would get drunk, Lister would bitch about Rimmer, things would happen... 'Course, that didn't fit with the plot we came up with in the end. Just throwing that idea out there. ;)
