Summary:
When Rimmer’s ship brings him home, he gets what he’s always wanted. To Lister’s dismay, that doesn’t seem to be enough.
(I have given up trying to fill in the missing bits. If the timeline seems choppy, that’s why!)
A Rimmer-Lister biological kid
Imagine an episode where the sci-fi gizmo-of-the-week scans copies of Rimmer's and Lister's DNA, and spits out a clone that's biologically their child.
I can't tell if he'd have a blend of their various issues, or, since he wasn't actually raised by them, be shockingly healthy and well-adjusted.

veronica_rich2017-07-21 02:48 pmHey, it's back!
If you've never heard of this podcast, you should check it out. The premise is that this sci-fi-savvy American couple a few years ago, who had never heard of Red Dwarf, agreed to co-host a podcast with a British fan, and did so episode by episode, watching each new only before recording for THAT particular episode. So you're getting a fresh reaction and review. They caught up through Series X in their original run, then reassembled like the Avengers last year to take on XI.
(I'm still listening to the "Twentica" episode, but one of the laughs in it is when Shane, the veteran, tells the couple, Heath and Angela, about the fuck-up on the Blu-Ray steelbook last November - remember, the distributor originally printed on it not the Series XI titles, but Series XII episode titles? Heath and Angela immediately start naming their own episode titles for XII, including "Episode 3: Lister and Rimmer Finally Get Married" and "Episode 4: Lister and Rimmer Divorce and Lister Marries Kochanski, but Then They Get Divorced and He Marries Rimmer Again." No, they're not slash fans, but they're pretty good sports about it existing, and the joke is just good clean fun, LOL.)
Anyway, it's good to while away a week of your life if you listen nonstop and don't sleep, so go download it ...

Rated: Mature
Standard disclaimer: Yada yada yada AO3 took care of this already
Summary: Forced into pursuit to rescue the Cat and Kryten, Lister and Rimmer uncover the solution to an old mystery. Featuring beaches, copious alcohol, revenge, and licentiousness. Not necessarily in that order.
Author note: Written for Tumblr user @twistedsardonic as my entry for the "Fandom Trumps Hate" auction – she was the winning bidder, and this to milady’s bidding. *tips hat*
They found Cat’s feet peeking out from shade thrown by a giant umbrella on a semi-cloudy beach, while a tape player to his side blasted island music and Kryten stood over a cooler twenty feet away shaking a sweating metal tumbler sloshing and clinking ice within. “Bet you can fairly taste that seafood, eh, Listy?” Rimmer nudged him in the side with a stage whisper as they stopped next to Cat’s lounge chair.
Lister didn’t argue the point. He raised his foot and kicked lightly at the underside of Cat’s big toe. When nothing happened, he did it again with more force and said, “Hey, man. Why’d you pull a runner?”

Summary:
Lister knew he had been distant with this Rimmer but he was surprised his new nano-companion seemed to care so much. He was supposed to be the pre-accident "smeghead Rimmer": all faux cold and distant façade. But for some reason his bunkmate seemed to be longing, missing something, reaching out for … the friendship and the bond he'd formed with the other Rimmer.
