Summary
“All right, miladdo,” he announced with a slightly smug nasal twang. “I think you’ve had quite enough of a lie-in for one day. It’s time for you to get out of bed and actually make an attempt at a passable impression of a human being for a change.”
Lister – or at least a lump beneath a blanket that Rimmer presumed was Lister – groaned and curled slightly further in on itself.
“Smeg off, Rimmer,” Lister’s voice was tight and thin with discomfort. “I’m not in the mood today, ok?”

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
Alternate title: 4 times Rimmer struggled to ask for things that he wanted/needed after the torment he suffered during Rimmerworld, and 1 time Lister knew what he needed before Rimmer did.
Lister knows something happened to Rimmer during those 557 years on Rimmerworld. A planet inhabited by clones of the one person who hated him the most? The one person who punished him to ensure he never got what he wanted? It was never going to end well.
And it hasn’t. And the worst part is, Rimmer won’t talk about it. In fact, sometimes he won’t talk at all.

In Which Jax Seduces Caine by LooneyMooney
Fandoms: The Amazing Digital Circus (Web Series)

Summary
Jax mustered up the energy to travel back to his desk, plopped down in his chair, and threw the notebook down in front of him. It fell open to the page labeled CAINE’S KINKS.
He grabbed a pen and tapped the tip of it against the page a few times, before making a few edits.
This is not a love story. This is a revenge story.
—————————————————————————(This fic was written after the author has seen episode 7, but before the author has seen episode 8. The author is more interested in the idea of Caine and Jax being narrative foils than she is in the idea of them having a genuinely abusive relationship. This story includes some spicy bits that are easily skipped - though you might miss some slapstick and character development if you choose to avoid them. This story is mostly comedy, though that might just be to make the tragedy hit all the harder. The author is gender-fluid, pansexual, polyamorous, demiromantic, ADHD, autistic, and heavily projecting. Please heed the tags, and enjoy the show!)

Summary
Lister is a very patient man who is capable of spontaneity and risk-taking. Rimmer is the human version of the most difficult to de-shell pistachio in the packet.
