A severe viral infection means Rimmer's vocal subroutines must be decommissioned for a twenty-four hour diagnostic period. For Rimmer, he might as well have been told he was dying.

Little Kochaski Jr is repairing a Starbug 4 when the radiation leak fries the rest of the crew, leaving her just enough time to get inside the shuttle and seal herself in a stasis pod. 3 million years later Dave Lister is woken up and let loose on the ship again. 3 million and 3 years later, Holly remembers about the second human life he had been supporting down in the shuttle bay.

Pardon my mistakes :-)

Three millions years in to deep space and it's Christmas of Red Dwarf, but not everyone is up for the holidays. Leading to a Christmas Carol parody.

The crew of the red dwarf mining ship take another stab at the iconic game.

Dave Lister was enthusiastic about learning how he could have two sons thanks to seeing them because of the Future Echoes, but the reality made him regret that enthusiasm. Spoilers for seasons 1 and 2.

Ace, after reflecting on his study of his maggot, sad self, reflects on his own past.

AU What if Rimmer had the sobering chat with Holly after being in stasis after three million years?

It's Rimmer's dream come true, he's finally invited to the captain's supper. But he has to bring a plus one, and for some reason all of the female crewmembers have syncronised their hair washing night. Can he successfully pass off his bunkmate as his date?

What if Lister asked for Rimmer's help in hiding Frankenstein? And what if they pretended to be dating to cover it up?

(A prompt was dropped on one Red Dwarf Discord that struck a cord with me, where there were two options given but I picked what felt more likely. and where Felis Sapiens did not devolve feline ears and tails.) After being together for years, Rimmer gets Lister to sign the paperwork having them legally recognised as spouses, only says nothing, and years later, Lister finds out.

Just a drabble based on two ideas that just seemed drawn to one another, one based on a common AU and the other my own personal journey (a little). [Trans!Lister/Rimmer, hence tags having both types of pairing and names]

"Lister," Rimmer enunciated every part of the name slowly, "why is there a picture of you and I in your bunk?" Said picture was tacked on the wall near the two polaroids of the twins, the one from the future echo and another taken before they were left with Deb and Arlene.

A mystic alien woman asks for the crews help and they must reveal their harshest memories, for everyone to see.

The crew explore a derelict craft that unbeknownst to them was beset with tragedy and a deadly disease that only affects people who are the objects of unrequited love. Lister contracts the disease and to cure it he must get something unobtainable: Rimmer's forgiveness.

AU Rimmer comes out of stasis one day to find that the entire crew are dead and he is three million years away from home. To make matters even more complicated, Kochanski is the one brought back as the ship's hologram.

A payback prank on Rimmer goes wrong, read on my friends

The gang has a surprise passenger who is very cute and it's Rimmers job to handle them

A short one, expanding on what Ace told Lister

A sick Rimmer gives us background into why he is the way he is

At the end of his life, Rimmer wonders if he was fated to die, or if he could have done something different to change things.

High Lister is troubled and High Rimmer is there to comfort him.

Exploring a derelict craft, Lister comes across a rather interesting looking virtual reality game, which turns out to be not quite what it seems. Sequel to Death and Humiliation, and An Occasional Dream.

On a supply run to a no longer inhabited moon, Lister contracts a disease that only affects those suffering from unrequited love. He claims he doesn't have feelings for anyone, but he is faced with a choice: honesty or death.

Rimmer is once again torturing himself over an upcoming exam. Lister tries to help and suggests Rimmer might be happier concentrating on something else. Can Lister convince him to give something new a try? Pre-accident.
