i don’t think i’ll ever move on from how mtz and red dwarf are just. the same shows. they’re about a little group of people in space who are so bad at their jobs and/or do not do their jobs. they’re all always fighting but love each other more than anything. the protagonist is a purposeful subversion of your usual sci-fi protagonist by making him kind of so pathetic to varying degrees. his best friend is either a robot or arguably a robot and also they’re kind of ridiculously gay for each other despite having one sided beef that grows into absolute best friendship. i could write essays on how rimmer and lister are like if pleck and c-53 swapped roles and personalities. rimmer IS nermut if you put them in a room together they’d leave several hours later not shutting up about how they finally met someone who was On Their Level who UNDERSTOOD and APPRECIATED their career goals. one time nermut was very clearly about to get executed but he was COMPLETELY convinced he was getting a promotion—this would happen to rimmer. holly and bargie? okay sentient ship/ship ai nation. they’re both about The Horrors and how important it is to find love for life and for the people around you to get through it. this list does continue i’ve been thinking about this for months. these are the same shows in different fonts and it’s beautiful.
you know what’s insane though. mtz parodies basically every popular piece of sci-fi media in existence and yet there is not a Single red dwarf reference in here. if any of the cast had watched red dwarf there WOULD be a reference somewhere. But there isn’t. these guys don’t know they remade a british sitcom in podcast format. They don’t know how many hysterical episode premises they missed out on

I was thinking about how the run away with me au Robin and Steve "should we get divorced?" conversation comes about:
Theyre about 23 and Robin comes home in tears after another break up. The reason: Robin had asked her girlfriend of 8 months, Lorraine to move in with her and steve. Lorraine assumes this means steve is moving out and when Robin clarifys that no Steve is staying, he's an important part of her life theyre married for chists sake. Well Lorraine doesnt take that well, says she isnt going to spend her life playing second fiddle to Steve.
This isnt the first time a relationship had ended for either of them because a partner hadnt been able to accept that Steve and Robin were a package deal. Things had been especially rough for them romantically in the first couple years of their marriage. It wasnt until a particularly awful screaming match between Robin, Steve and Steves first real boyfriend, that they were able to admit their relationship was incredibly codependent and unhealthy. Steves boyfriend had been upset when Steve had cancelled on him for the 3rd time in a row because of a Robin Emergency™️ and decided to confront Robin about it while Steve was in class. Things escalated quickly when Steve came home early from class to find them arguing and immediately took Robins side. The argument and Steves relationship ended with a slammed door, a lot of tears and a new rift in Robin and Steves relationship.
It took a lot of long conversations with Carina and Marjorie, Steve working through his toxic masculinity enough to go see a therapist - He and Robin made a deal that theyd both go talk to someone about, you know almost dieing "do you think me being fucked up by what happened at starcourt makes me weak steve?" "No of course not!" "Well then why would it make you weak?" - and a summer spent apart (Robin taking an internship in rome to study latin) for them to sit down and have a long conversation about boundaries and ground rules for how they would navigate their relationship as well as dating in the future.
Steve and Robin agreed to both take a break from dating while they worked through their respective traumas, and figured out how to navigate their relationship in a healthy way. Things werent easy, the both of them occasionally backsliding into unhealthy behaviors, more than a few nights where one of them spent the night with Carina and Marjorie in order to have space from eachother. But eventually they get their shit figured out and decide to brave the world of dating again. Steve and Robin both have their share of flings and short lived relationships but nothing so far seemed to stick. That is until Robin met Lorraine.
Lorraine was funny, sweet and a little bitchy. They had immediately clicked after being introduced by some mutual friends from school. Robin really thought things with Lorraine were going to work out. Steve and Lorraine had gotten on like a house on fire, she had slipped into Robin and Steves dynamic easily, trading jokes and light hearted jabs, cooking breakfast together on days Lorraine would stay at their apartment. Robin had fallen hard and fast, she thought she had finally found someone who accepted that her and Steve were a package deal. So 8 months in when Lorraines lease was ending Robin (with agreement from steve) asked Lorraine to move in. Things don't go to plan. Robins dreams of a future with lorraine are shattered. She goes home broken hearted.
After Robin has cried herself out, her and steve cuddled together on the couch Steve is the one to broach the topic. Robin immediately bursts back into tears before he calms her back down again saying he doesnt want a divorce but he also doesnt want to hold Robin back, doesnt want to be the reason she cant find happiness. Robin replys by saying if anyone is holding the other back its obviously her, steve gave up everything to protect her afterall. Steve calls bullshit -years of therapy and he can finally say that word without cringing- says he would do it all again in a heartbeat, that she doesn't owe him anything. They stay up all night talking about it, about what the both of them want from their futures. Neither can see a future without the other. they're platonic life partners, one day they'll find their someones who can accept that and if not well, they'll always have eachother.
Of course they do find their someones in the form of a charming if infuriating metal head and a brilliant, sweet, and badass reporter. Through trial and error the four of them figure out how to navigate life together. They all live happy ever after.
Robin and Steve celebrate 30 years of marriage with divorce papers. They'll always love eachother but now they dont need a marriage to keep eachother safe. They dont need a marriage to stay as platonic life partners. They have eachother and they have Eddie and Nancy. They have everything they need.

Lmk what you think! I'd love to have someone to scream with about this AU and bounce ideas off of :D

speaking of which do u guys ever do drawpile. rping on drawpile is fun. it feels like the nice middle ground between extreeeeeemely slow text rp (sometimes it takes me weeks or months to respond to a document lol) and super speedy in-game chat rp... bc like, the scene still happens in one sitting, but u have the downtime btwn each response of waiting for the other person to erase and redraw their guy/write out the dialogue/etc...

The last ask really got me thinking abt Drayton and Iris now bc I have not stopped thinking abt Iris being the older one in my hcs PLEASE LISTEN TO ME THIS HAS PLAGUED MY MIND WHILE I WAS WORKING
Cause y'know, in my hcs if Iris is the older one then she is at least three years older than Drayton, so when Iris was taken in by Drayden, Drayton was around 2 at most, so for almost all his life, Iris had been around, his big sis, his playmate when they were younger, his mentor alongside their grandfather, she was like a role model to him
But also, Iris being a prodigy kinda messed w him a bit, cause she did so well w battles, she's already a strong trainer since she was young, at 12 she became Opelucid's Gym Leader, then a year later she became Unova's Champion, probably it's longest running Champion too present time
And he, well, he had to redo his second year at school, but he had smth at least, he became the champion of the school's own league, the BB league, he was proud of it, and Iris was proud of him when he became the school's Champion, and that was one of the highest praises he got. Ofc, his sister, who's the region's champion, being so proud of him for being his own school's champion, for being the strongest trainer in the academy, ofc he ate it up. At least someone was proud of him.
It would also be cool but also low-key sad if you squint if Iris actually trained Drayton more than Drayden trained him. And not like Drayden neglected him, ofc not, but Iris just had more time to do so since Drayden was also busy w being mayor of the city and being its Gym Leader. Sharing the champion title, Iris at least didn't have to worry much when she's not at the league, bc Hilbert can cover for her, so during her spare time, she trains Drayton
And idk it would make a bit of sense, he's good at battling, before Kieran really went above and beyond w his own training, Drayton was considered the strongest at the academy, he is Champion level, was a Champion, bc he was trained by a Champion
But also it would be funny since they look nothing alike that when Drayton talks abt her, people would be all "your sis sounds cool, but who is she anyways?"
"My sis? Wow, you really don't know her? You live under a rock or something?" Then he laughs and just "my sister, Iris, she's the Champion. Surely you know her. Who doesn't?"
"CHAMPION IRIS??? YOU TWO LOOK NOTHING ALIKE THO???"
"yes we do, look at the purple streak on my hair. It's the same shade as hers."
