Fic - Alteration. R/L implications. PG.

[roadstergal.livejournal.com]

This is another conversation-with-lady_draco-and-kahvi fic. It started life as a squicky crack pairing for humor, but the device for making it possible took over the fic, and it turned into something completely different. This is an AU replaying of DNA - one where Rimmer doesn't give up on the dandruff.
It was also partly inspired by the IV commentary.
Warnings for some disgustingness and some sappiness. Spoilers for DNA.

"Hey, bud, if I get those unsightly dark circles under my eyes, I might as well be dead!"
Pure Cat.

I love Holly here, hehehe...

Silicone brain said he should make his bee part of the clone, or he wouldn't really be alive again.
Yes! Thank you! I've had many late night (drunken) discussions on this topic. Um. Cloning, that is, not Rimmer. I approve of your logic. :)

Rimmer's body's being generated - wonderful stuff.

Well..." she gave an expression that would have matched a shrugging pair of shoulders perfectly, "it's done now."
LMAO!

Lister shook his head and turned back to his crossword. This was just wrong.
Great Lister.

"I called Kryten up. He's bringing a mop."
I shouldn't, but OMG... LMAO!

Wonderful. This was wonderful. And all this from such a silly idea! Thanks for writing!

Thanks for the feedback!

I love female!Holly so! *hugs Hattie*

What, you haven't had late-night drunken discussions of Rimmer? Why not? ;) Rimmer does seem to have a Thing for re-creating himself - but not really as himself, if you know what I mean. Me2, Stasis Leak (One for weekdays, and one for Sunday best!), recreating himself from his dandruff - but doesn't really seem to get, until Rimmerworld, that a clone or copy of him isn't him. I liked the idea that the supercomputer would be able to take his personality and memories from the bee and make the clone actually him.

I loved the idea! We need to have more silly late-night conversations. :)

Well, I've had late night discussions WITH Rimmer, but that was as Lister, so I'm not sure they count. ;)

And yes, yes, we do!

Oh, I think they all count. Yes, indeedy!
