You remember how I said I would never write a sequel to Fifty Shades of Smeg...?

WRITE IT, WRITE IT, WRITE IT! :D

*Ahem* If you want to, that is. I reread it the other day and still love it. :)

I'm kind of torn. On the one hand, I'm happy with how I finished it and part of me wants to leave it alone, let them have their happy ending and just let it be. But over the past week or so I've been mulling something over and...I don't know. I might just draft a few bits and see how I feel.

I agree it was a lovely ending, but if you're still getting bunnies it would be nice to read them. Maybe just write a collection of "missing scenes" or snapshots from their later lives?

The temptation is usually to pull it asunder and wreck it a little in order to repair it in a sequel. I am curious, personally, how the factor of Rimmer's family might play into their new world; one could guess that with the DJ feat and the Ace aspect, Mother might try to come into his life again somehow. Perhaps through Lister, even. Or someone claiming to be Lister's dad or mom shows up once he's famous and possesses half a fortune ...

And then there's the potential for exploring Series X's new canon - Howard being a fraud, Dungo etc.

Also, I really liked the versions of Kochanski and Petersen in this and would like to see more of them. I am being sincere and not just saying that so Felineranger writes more steamy, kinky sex. Honestly.

Although that would obviously be great. ;)

Ha, yeah. X indeed. Howard the poseur. Except what if he is successful, just not in anything he can gloat about? Like, he's a much sought porn actor. Or escort.

I like this. That would explain the uniform that he wore to their parents' party -- he played a Space Corps captain in a porn XD

Bow chicka BOW BOW. I have no problem imagining Mark Dexter getting down.

[janamelie.livejournal.com]

He knows what to do with quantum rods! ;)

Sorry. :p

What a lot of bunnies! Maybe I should step back and let you guys write it - there'd be more quantum rod porn and less angst :D

Sorry that was me- didn't sign in!

You want angst? Lister spends the night at a friend's house after a row with Rimmer. Out of curiosity he puts on a porno set on a Trojan ship and finds himself strangely attracted to the actor playing the Captain.

Whilst he's watching and getting turned on, Rimmer arrives full of remorse and stares in absolute horror at the actor. Lister can't understand why he's so angry until the word "Howard!" passes his lips.

Why yes, I am evil... :p

[felineranger.livejournal.com]

Evil genius more like! That is inspired!!!

[janamelie.livejournal.com]

*Takes a bow* Feel free to write it or any variation of it if you want to. :)

[veronica-rich.livejournal.com]

Be even funnier if Lister is in the mood RIGHT NOW and Rimmer doesn't get a chance to explain before Lister tackles him to sex him up in front of the screen. :-P

[janamelie.livejournal.com]

This scenario just gets better worse! I was thinking of the angst aspect but yes, it could also be funny. :D

[veronica-rich.livejournal.com]

When Rimmer tells him he's a massive tool. Howard can mutter "You've no idea ..." cryptically.

[rosecathy1.livejournal.com]

YES DO IT NOW please and thank you. Unless you're planning to do something really mean to the boys, in which case...okay I would still read it.

I see it's already been said -- missing scenes might be good. You could make a whole kink meme out of the story, honestly.

[felineranger.livejournal.com]

Of course I'm going to be mean to them! I'm Felineranger - that's what I do!!! LOL

[rosecathy1.livejournal.com]

True, true, but pleeeease don't split them up or (re-)kill them in the end ;_;

I admit character-torture does have its place. I find re-reading the saddest chapters of Fifty Shades (for me the top 3 are the zoo, the breakup, and the supermarket) very cathartic, although maybe it only works because the story ends happily...

[lordvalerymimes.livejournal.com]

Oh please do. I would be SO happy to read more. Even if, as others have said they're just little snapshots. That entire epic was just the bees knees.
