Fiction: Standards. Rimmer/Lister

[roadstergal.livejournal.com]

Title: Standards.
Authors: kahvi and roadstergal.
Pairing: Rimmer/Lister.
Rating: PG (for this first part).
Disclaimer: Unfortunately, we neither own the characters nor look to make any money from this. Grant/Naylor does both.
Spoilers: Thanks For The Memory, Marooned, Bodyswap, Quarantine, Terrorform, Legion, Emohawk.
Notes: Takes place between Tikka To Ride and Stoke Me A Clipper.

Yes, another gestalt fic. We shamelessly took over Holodonkeh's LJ for a bit of cyberporn, and then realized it would become a fic if we, well, added a plot. Since this takes place in VII, we got to use jealousbitch!Kryten. This is Part 1.

It seemed to irritate Kryten to have him sharing a room with Lister again, though, and that was worth an uncomfortable silence every now and then.

See! Look! Hyperproductivity! It took me ten days to write a thousand words... But it's all good because there's more lovely stuff to read!

A party of two means half the chance of getting unexpectedly shot. - Hee!

"Rimmer, I'm not a smegging magpie!" :)

Kryten did not look in the least bit happy with this arrangement. "Sir, are you sure that's a good idea?" He eyed Rimmer, his Visual Expression Emulator in Suspicion Mode. - :D

"Lister, that sign is the universal symbol for 'biohazard.' It is not the universal symbol for 'tasty and delightful things within.'" - The 'within' on the end just makes that line. Wonderful.

Lister crossed his arms as best he could in the bulky suit, waiting for Rimmer's hopefully amusing reaction. - oh, you so would, wouldn't you? Brilliant.

I look forward to the next part!

Ahhh. The beginning of my hijacked post. =)

Loved the bickering, loved the Rimmer cowardice, loved the Lister "Oooh! Fun!", got a little irritated by the Kryten jealousy (which I presume was the point) - all up, love, love, love. Hehe.

Love your work, guys. Love it! Hee. Well done, dearies.

There's a lot of love in this comment. *grins*

Brilliant! You two really do portray the charactors quite well. And, once again, plot. I'm rather enamored of plot.
