One man and his droid

Updating myself with Bobbyllew's twitter stream this morning. I know the cast are all very close, but after reading The Man In The Rubber Mask years and years ago I've always thought that Robert seems particularly fond of Craig. Reading some of his tweets since they've been filming has kind of raised it in my mind again. It almost makes me want to write some RPS. Which I know I shouldn't. But kind of want to. Even though I sort of disapprove of it. But actually quite enjoy reading it. Although it makes me feel like such a bad person.

Understanding now Kryten's description of ambivalence....

I LOVED that book. The part where the others are consoling him in the corridor after he burst into tears at the wrap of series 5 and he can't tell them he's going to be in the US pilot was particularly poignant.

I'm in the middle of writing a RPF (not slash mind you). I know it's not real and I know people don't approve, but you know, it's what makes you happy that is what is important. If writing that fic will make you happy, I say do it. I'll read the fic.

I agree with Bayliss. It's only fantasy after all.

Maybe you should talk to Kahvi or Roadstergal? They were ambivalent at first too.

Dont think i can quite bring myself to slash Craig and Bobby tho! Maybe because it would feel too much like Lister/Kryten and that would be too much even for me! There was just something about the idea of them watching Question Time together (yes, I know that's odd) that seemed so cozily domestic it just struck me as sweet. I could picture them curled up together on the sofa with big mugs of tea, Craig making cruel but witty comments about the panelists and Bobby laughing then saying "That's terrible. I'm sure he's probably a lovely person in real life if you meet him..." and Craig rolling his eyes saying "Stop being so f***ing nice, you wet middle-class bastard.". Just like an old married couple!

My god this is so cute. You should just write an original fic that happens to have a couple of people sort of similar to them in it. *nods*

I'm writing rp slash, too! But, It's Craig/Chris. And I'm rubbish at the sex scenes. And, it's starting to shape up to it, and I have no idea how to start it, or make them enjoy it without making them seem too.... awkward. Help!!!
