Christmasy Drabble Tree!
Dec. 19th, 2012 04:49 pmCome on, everyone. You know what to do. I've posted a Christmas-themed drabble below. You take a line and use it in your own drabble.
Rimmer tossed the napkin onto the table, his stomach having thrown in the towel long ago.
“That has to be Kryten’s best Christmas lunch yet.” He picked at his teeth warily. “Although I hope that wasn’t space weevil in the stuffing – “
Lister grabbed the whipped cream from the table. “I told Kryten we’d head back to our quarters for puddin’,” he smirked.
Rimmed frowned, confused, as he strode purposefully to the doorway. “Er - Lister?” he called. “You’ve forgotten the mince pies.”
The tone said it all. “We don’t need mince pies.”
“Oh?” The hologram blinked. “Ohhh.”

“It’s Christmas,” Rimmer announced.
“You hate Christmas.”
“But you don’t. And look, you’re awake now.”
“Don’t tell me you actually got me a present.” Lister wasn't awake enough for this.
“Try opening your eyes.”
Lister prised his eyes open enough to see Rimmer, and then they snapped open all the way. Well. That was certainly a novel use of a Christmas bow and bells.
