Ok well really quick update (Lar cheers) but very short chapter, anyway hope you enjoy the little bit of Lister/Rimmer banter. Oh yeah REVIEW or beware ZOMBIFICATION!
Discovery
"Rimmer man – Hurry up!" Lister called behind him as he grabbed random pieces of equipment and stuffed them into his rucksack.
"Sorry to be a drag and all but some of us are actually looking for useful things to help us win this puerile game." Rimmer retorted haughtily.
"Hey! So am I you know." Lister defended, his voice rising slightly in pitch.
"Some sticky back plastic and a mouldy yoghurt pot?" Rimmer questioned, pointing to Lister's latest finds. "This isn't Blue Peter you know."
"It's a start."
"To what? Runner up prize in the 5 to 10ns category?"
"Rimmer I… Hey! Look at this!" Lister called as he pulled an old sheet off something Rimmer couldn't quite see from where he was stood.
"What is it?" He asked as he turned the corner to catch Lister up.
"It's that bonkers skutter! We could repair it a bit, do a welding job with a bazookoid and bingo! Lister speculated, excitedly.
"Technically this is cheating as the others will have built their thing from new, not just recycled a already built robot." Rimmer voiced as he watched the younger man struggle to move the large metal machine.
" And? Since when have you gone all moral on us?" Lister asked accusingly as he kicked the skutter in annoyance, wincing as pain throbbed through his foot.
Rimmer grinned broadly "I haven't – There's hope for you yet!"
