Red Dwarf Slash

Thank you! As I said, we really like this one too. It's taking on a life of its own.

I think Spanners will be all right. He's a survivor. He can probably fix himself too!

From:

Ach, thanks!

Ja, well, he had his Ace. You can't have your Ace and eat... er, never mind.

From:

I can't stop thinking about that blonde from the Olgerian cluster... *needs a way to incorporate that into something*

From:

Oh, I just know you will. :)

From:

I can't read this right now; people are distracting me which would just ruin it. I just wanted to post and tell you how excited I was that it's here for me to read as soon as I can kick everyone out.

=\ Though I probably shouldn't kick people out so I can read a fik; i'm sure there's something wrong with that.

From:

Ahahaha~ I have now read it!

I think i'm not a very nice person, I was mad at Spanners the entire time for being there. ^^;

Meanwhile, awesome writing from you both, once again, and bonus points for exellent use of the word 'smeg-ups'; i clapped.

From:

Rimmer was pretty annoyed, too. :p

Why, thank you, ma'am!

From:

Aw, no! Come on, double your Lister, double your fun! *shakes head* They did both mean so well; they thought Arn would like it. *hugs her Listers protectively*

Heheheh... That's the fun of writing this way though; I didn't know what Rimmer was thinking as it happened until afterwards and then... Hm... I wish I'd snagged that "Rimmer-induced-facepalm" now. ;)

Thank you so much! :D And *blush* for the "smeg-ups"; that was one of mine.

From:

How exactly do you two put yourstories togeather? If i'm not asking for trade secrets ;) It's making me curious, since the way the writing comes across is pretty tightly knit, but the way you talk about it, it seems to each write a pieces and then insert it in alternate to piece the story together.

And well done on the 'smeg-ups' line then; cause, like I said, I clapped. It was a brillant work-in.

From:

Rofl--that's right. I remember seeing that screenshot. Congratulations on an inovative way of writing. It's just brillant. And weridly fasinating as well.:D

From:

A very clappable bit, indeed! *nods*

Heh (http://community.livejournal.com/reddwarfslash/82540.html)...

One or the other or both of us come up with an idea. If there's an intro that stands out as wanting to be written, the one with the character with the POV for the intro writes it. Then we IM the dialog and actions. That's the bit I like; we have only the words and the actions to react to, as the characters would, not thoughts and feelings. Then I consolidate the IM into narrative format, and we toss it back and forth, taking turns to edit, until we like it.

I'm Rimmer, she's Lister; we divvy up the secondary characters.

From:

Secrets! Our trade secrets revealed! ;))

Then I consolidate the IM into narrative format
Because you are awesome.

The way I experience it, something happens, then we do that thing, then something else happens. Then I fall asleep on the couch, wake up at 5 AM and keep writing. And it's the best thing ever!

That's actually more accurate than my post, I think.

Guhhh, double Lister!
*I'm gonna have to switch to liquid helium*

From:

double your Lister, double your fun

Hmmm. ;)

But Rimmer wants his Lister! *petulant*

From:

I know! It's sweet beyond words... And it's certainly the way I would feel too, to some extent, but Lister sees things somewhat differently. Honestly, it's enough to give a girl dissasociative identity disorder!

From:

Um...Yes. Quite. *fans self*
That was just beautiful guys. Sad and happy all at once. I really like how it turned out indeed. Well worth the wait.
*of to take a quik shower in liquid oxygen*

From:

Awww, thank you! Glad you liked. I still am very happy that

kahvi coined 'dramance' to refer to that type of fic.

From:

Hurrah! Although I'm slightly worried about the chemical baths people keep exposing themselves to. ;)

Very happy to hear you liked it, thanks for the lovely feedback!

Wheeee! Ahh, fitting end to the first half. ;) I started it this morning but I had to leave for work just as they started the sexeh! :) Hee. Anyway, brilliant as usual though a little cut that it wasn't Rimmer/Linda/Lister. What can we do though, eh? ;) But yes - love you both for producing such wonderful stories -angst, sex and the lot.

And, also, I'd like to congratulate who ever came up with this. Still recovering from Caz's "I'm not naked, Linds" icon, I was in some sort of fit when I read this:

He was not a smegging circus bear.

The images it concocted in my silly little brain.

Again, brilliant guys :D
