  2. Summary

    “That is a seriously nice gun. Where did you get it?”

    “Chris got it for me.”

    “Is he like your sugar daddy now or something? It's not your birthday.”

    "No." Adrian shakes his head. "You sound just like the guy at the gun store. If you must know, we eloped."

  5. Summary

    “I was going to take you up to the observation dome, but I guess there isn’t any point in keeping you waiting.” Lister agreed. “It’s been wearin’ a hole in me pocket anyway.”

    “Lister? What are you doing?” Rimmer stammered, turning deep red in contrast to his shiny blue holo-uniform.

    Ignoring him, Lister pulled the box from his trouser pocket and held it up. “It's a holo-ring.” He explained, opening the box and showing it to Rimmer. “It’s made for holograms.”

    The ring shone and flickered as Lister held it out towards Rimmer.

    “Marry me, Rimmer.” He said simply.

    Summary

    The scene opened on a cozy-looking English cottage. It stood away from busy streets, its cream colored walls having been weathered a bit by the years.

    A stone pathway lined by various bright and well-kept flowers led up to the front porch. On that porch was David Lister, unlocking the front door and letting himself inside. He was wearing a mechanic’s uniform beneath a comfortable looking coat and his signature deerstalker.

    “Oh honey, I’m home!” He said brightly as he toed off his shoes, dropped his toolbox, and hung up his hat and coat by the door.

    “Welcome back,” another voice said from further into the house. “I’m just finishing up dinner now.”

    Lister goes through the dream recorder and ends up watching Rimmer's favorite dream... which just so happens to be a vision of a domestic life with the two of them.

    Summary

    “It is not your concern,” ART said. “They are no longer your clients.”
    That was true. They weren’t my clients. But they used to be, and the thought of them going off by themselves to get chewed on by hostile fauna or whatever was doing funny things to my performance reliability.
    I didn’t say that out loud, but ART knew I was thinking it anyway, because it’s a monster.
    “For a construct that claims to hate its function, you are remarkably dedicated to it.” ART does this thing sometimes where it says something that sounds like a compliment but in such an obnoxious tone that it feels like an insult anyway.
    “Fuck off, ART.”
    “You fuck off.”
    So, I decided to go on the survey.

    Several years after they met on RaviHyral, Tapan and her collective contact Murderbot with a job offer. As their security consultant on a planetary survey, Murderbot must contend with malfunctioning equipment, hostile fauna, and an overabundance of human emotion, all while maintaining its increasingly fragile disguise as an augmented human.

    Summary

    “You’re up early.”

    In the half light, he can hear more than see Rimmer startle, the slight creak of his seat and the shuffling of his feet against the floor. He turns slightly, the light catching the silver streaks in his hair, and looks over his shoulder at Lister, hanging back in the doorway of their bunkroom.

    --

    After thirty-five years, Lister decides it's time to come clean.

    Summary

    Rimster Week 2026: Day 2 ~ Aceiverse/Argument

    Rimmer’s face hardened. “Lister, you’re being childish.”

    “Me?” Lister scoffed. “I’m not the one who starts crying the second things get a bit out of order!”

    “That is beside the point!”

    “No, the point,” Lister snapped, turning on him fully now, “is that I’m sick of you! Sick of your whining, your bossing everyone around, your stupid smegging little comments all the time about anything I do-”

    “As if I’m not sick of living with a degenerate who thinks it’s okay to just leave crumbs all over the floor and put his bare feet up on tables? You think this is any easier for me?” Rimmer threw his hands in the air. “You think that living with you is the pride and joy of my existence? You think I’m happy here?!”

    “Then maybe you should’ve stayed dead!”

    Rimmer and Lister are arguing. Lister accidentally goes too far and Rimmer retaliates by shutting himself off. Lister learns that his life isn't quite complete without Rimmer there.

    Summary

    It's been twenty-one days, three hours and thirty-six minutes since Rimmer became the owner of a pair of matching engagement rings. Since then he's been biding his time waiting for the perfect moment to ask Lister the question he so desperately wants to ask.

    The path to that perfect moment, as it transpires, is anything but easy.
