Damn, girl - you can write! *wipes a tear*
That was not just good fanfic, that was good writing, period. And so angsty and romantic. If I wasn't writing something positive just now, I'd have to, just to make Lister happy again. *sniff* Ahh... *sniff* Hehehe...

Aw shucks. I'm just a sucker for hm... What's the word... Dramatic romance. Dramance? Yes, well it is now, anyway. We were reading "Giovanni's Room" for my gay and lesbian literature class last semester, and I was the only one who LOVED the first love scene between Giovanni and David. Dunno if you have read the book (soo good...), but it's just this really heart-wrenchingly sentimental dramatic romantic moment where David just gives in to desire... *melts into puddle* And the scene where Lister considers what caressing Rimmer would be like reminded me of that.

I must warn you, it has a really, really unhappy ending. My course teacher said he couldn't bare to re-read it for the course, because it effected him so strongly emotionally. Books about gay people in the fifties rarely ended well. :/

Still - Dramance!

Yum! You have some really lovely detail work there, and also some good character exploration. The angst of the ending is wonderfully done without being over-done, too.

Brilliant mate. Lovely bit of angst at the end. =) Splendid *squee*

*sobs*

OK, I need to stop looking at this post, because it just keeps getting worse! I re-read the fic, and it was sadder the second time, and now this.

*cries*
