Rimmer hovered at a constant distance, like a neurotic vulture who is watching a mortally wounded impala play Parcheesi.
What a lovely, lovely image.
But he still was not angry with Lister. No, just - numb
That is just so sad. Damn that Kryten! And Rimmer, when will he learn? Some space hero too, what has to happen until he senses something is wrong?
If Rimmer had not been occupied with brooding, he might have noticed the madness in Kryten's voice. But he was, and he did not - not until Kryten advanced, duster raised, on Rimmer, and started to dust his head with intense concentration. "What the smeg is wrong with you?" Rimmer barked, dancing back.
Indeed. That crazy cleaning is really scary, but Kryten dusting Rimmer is just such hilarious image!
She would stay to watch him die
Mommy. Me scared now. Very scared.
Who was 'she?' What did 'she' have to do with the ship blowing up?
Captain oblivious. Really, Arn.
Rimmer bit his tongue very solidly at the sight of her, looking ( ... )

I know; numb!Rimmer killed me too. I felt so horrible for what Kryten did to him - I knew it would shake him, but not to what extent. Oh well, it's all good now!
Rimmer is frustrating. Both Lister and I are used to it by this point, but it's no less annoying! Takes forever to make him understand something, and even then he'll get it slightly wrong. Ah, but we love him anyway. *restrains self from tousling hair*
We had some great line-exchanges in this one, I feel. And many of them came out while we did the dialog - damn, we're good. Ahem. *snort* Hehehe...
I was Cat for this bit, and I loved it! He's fun to be, but he doesn't think much. Which can be a relief, actually, hehehe...
And yes, sex handle. I couldn't resist. ;)
Thank you so much! There's just nothing like knowing your fics are apreciated to this level. Makes me happy. :) As for more adventures - well - there are in my head, at any rate. The problem is, as roadstergal is well aware, that I can't stop plotting!

Ach, well, Rimmer has a bit of a blind spot where Lister is concerned. Where relationships in general are, actually. You remember Ace's attitude to relationships in SMAC, and I wanted to keep that going with this Ace. :p
Oh, god, headdusting - we had swapped things up at that point so that kahvi was Kryten, and I just died laughing. Also, though, I had no idea at that point what had happened to Lister and Kochanski, which helped with that scene...
Also blame Kat for the "knew it would be something like that" and "sex handle" comments. :D
Glad you liked!

You two pwn the internets. Totally. (I'll write a more coherent review later, when the shock of OMG it's over! wears off...)

"Bomb? Oh, my dear boy, who ever heard of such a thing! Bombs on a starship. I do declare."
Eee. I love this alternate computer personality. Pity it doesn't hang around for long.
"Hey, where you going?" Cat yelled after him in alarm. "Look, I'll still have sex with you! I don't care who you've been with!"
Rimmer did the best imitation of Cat that he could. "I'm not going to have sex with you! I don't care who you've been with!"
I love this entire part. Cat hitting on Ace, who is Rimmer? Wonderful.
"Oh, yes, yes, of course, that's what... yes." Rimmer staggered his way out of the room, feeling amazingly, amazingly dense.
He finally realizes how dense he's been! Finally!
The fact that this was so unmistakably Arn, not Ace, was quite a turn-on, Lister found. What those clothes meant; did Rimmer even realize? "Yeah..."
And that's the part about the sex scene that makes the difference. He's Arn, not Ace. And the trousers. Gotta love the trousers. X3
Kochanski sat down in the pilot's chair, abruptly, ( ... )

Oh, I'm glad you liked the alternate computer personality. I wasn't sure how well I'd pulled that off. Well then, hurrah!
Mmm... Trousers... Wha? What were you saying?
Glad you liked the Cat-bit! I wanted to end it with the resolution of that oblivious!Cat joke, and it seems to have worked well.
And yes, of course sexhandlebraids. I mean, with Rimmer pulling on them like that? I think roadstergal might have set it up to make me make Lister say it, actually. If so, much kudos to her!
Thank you so much for the wonderful feedback. It brings me much joy. :D

It's a pity the alternate computer never was in the show itself. He would have been fun to see!
*joins you in getting distracted by the trousers*
The Cat realizing what he had done in the end was a lot funnier than him being oblivious. And you gave us the bonus image of Cat in the shower. XD
*sends kudos to roadstergal even if she didn't set it up like that. She deserves them just for writing with you!*
Glad I could contribute! ;)

Aahahaaha~! A very familiar and brilliant line, i must say!
Ha! So, all's well that ends well. A rather please ending with humour and some warm fuzzies. And Ace!Kochanski, what a brillant idea O_O
I am impressed. Best story ever. :hearts:

Oh, I love my boys. I do, I do, I do! They're so pretty! *sigh* Heh. Loved the Cat in this. Too good.
Anyway, well done kiddies. I may just have to print this out and read it in my bed tonight.
;) Whee!

And that bit with the sex in the blue uniform ... oh, those trousers have made me quite happy watching him prance and run about in them onscreen. Good to see Dave also appreciates what they do for his ass and legs. ;-)
