Red Dwarf Headcanons (w/ A Copius Amount Of Rimster)

Red Dwarf Headcanons (w/ a copius amount of Rimster)

Rimmer once stole Lister's guitar, repaired the missing strings, and tuned it and when Lister found out, he was upset until he tried playing it and realized that it didn't actually sound bad

With the guitar tuned, Rimmer still doesn't want to hear Lister play anything, but then Lister agrees to learn Edelweiss from The Sound of Music and Rimmer decides that he's allowed to play that

Rimmer then forces Lister to play Edelweiss for him whenever he can't sleep and although Lister gets sick of the song, he does it anyway because he knows it makes Rimmer happy

The two eventually move out of their bunkroom and into the Captains Quarters on Lister's suggestion because it has a bigger bed; Rimmer agrees to it because he likes the idea of occupying the room of the highest ranking officer on the ship

Lister can actually cook if he tries hard enough and has a recipe, meanwhile Rimmer cannot cook whatsoever; he attempted once and was henceforth banned from the kitchen

Rimmer is actually very physically affectionate but hates having to initiate it and so Lister learns all of Rimmer's unspoken cues for when he wants a hug or a hand to hold

Lister uses all sorts of ridiculous pet names for Rimmer just to get him worked up

The Cat will sometimes just come into Rimmer and Lister's room, sleep on the foot of their bed, and then if they question it he'll just say that it was the most comfortable spot in the moment

When Lister and Rimmer eventually want to get married, Kryten ends up officiating the wedding after taking an online course to get a license but then ends up objecting during the objections because he's upset that now he'll have one less set of sheets to launder

Rimmer is asexual and didn't realize it until he tried to make moves on Lister and Lister confronted him, asking if he actually wanted sex or if he just thought it was just what people are supposed to do in relationships (Rimmer totally thought it was just relationship protocol)

Rimmer will occasionally take Lister's leather jacket and wear it around because it makes him feel safe and loved

i think what’s on a person’s nightstand is very telling so reblog this and put in the tags the things you have on your nightstand

as a fanfiction writer, getting comments on my works is the most rewarding experience of all time. i could die happy knowing that i have a bunch of nice comments on my goofy ahh red dwarf fanfictions on ao3. to everyone who writes nice comments on anyone's works on ao3: thank you. you are the sweetest people in the galaxy. <3

in order to convince my friends to watch red dwarf, i cranked out a brief summary of every single episode but i tried to make them all sound as stupid as possible to draw interest :) if yk, yk!

drew these sketches for filling out a ship meme template thing but i actually really like how they look so here u go. my artstyle fluctuates so much it’s not even funny

Me telling my friends that I am so normal about Red Dwarf after I wake up and then proceed to check all new Red Dwarf postings on ao3 and tumblr and cry a little bit when there isn't anything new and then start posting new stuff myself to fill the void before I sit down to rewatch Red Dwarf for the 6th time.
