Fic: Escape - R/L - PG

[kahvi.livejournal.com]

Authors: kahvi and roadstergal
Title: Escape, Part 2
Pairing: Rimmer/Lister
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: I don't own Red Dwarf, and I doubt my esteemed collegue does so either. None of us make money from this.
Notes: I now have the great honor of presenting the final part of Escape, the fic co-written by roadstergal and myself. When we left our heroes, Rimmer was marooned on a stormy planet, with little hope of escape, save by the rest of the RD team. Will Lister come through? Will pr0n happen? Well, dear readers, there's only one way to find out... If this is the first you've seen of this fic, go read part one first.
Set between Legion and the Thursday before Gunmen of the Apocalypse. Spoilers for Legion, Marooned, Terrorform, and probably a few others.

What had he been expecting; that Rimmer would welcome him with open arms and a snog?

You did resist! Very admirable of you!

But, you know, they wouldn't have been all that out of place even if you hadn't.

Bwahaha! I hadn't even thought of that (where's my dirty mind?). I agree.

Glad you liked it! And *blush*..

Ja, it was fun; kahvi came up with the scenario, and I thought of a reason for it. And then she made up the lightbee-hack and flightsuit. It made the interacting that much more fun! Especially when Lister kept trying to get the lovely warm-me-up cuddling going, and Rimmer was having nothing of it (I'm sorry! He just wouldn't!).

Heh, I was thinking Wal-Mart, and I had to ask Kahvi for a comparably tacky Brit chain...

And yes, the thoughts that were going through Lister's head during the reboot were just terrific. Brava!

Me: And then I made up this flight-suit, sort of like (explains concept)
The Boyfriend: You know that's entirely realistic, right? Really common in SF; all self-respecting Space Marines have them. That wouldn't be dangerous.
Me: Yes dear, but you're forgetting that this is Red Dwarf.
The Boyfriend: Aaah. Right.

Oh, but the resistance was good! Lister kept screwing up too, and hating himself for it. He gets much too eager, bless him. The reboot thing hit me and Lister both straight in the gut. Got that whole furious anger/need to comfort thing going, which is excellent.

Oh, and : http://www.superdrug.com

I've never lived near a Superdrug large enough to have a perfume counter, but I'm sure its use as a reference here was right on the money!

It certainly read as if you had fun writing it!

Especially when Lister kept trying to get the lovely warm-me-up cuddling going, and Rimmer was having nothing of it (I'm sorry! He just wouldn't!). - well, it just means everything has more impact when he does finally come to his senses, that's all. :)
