Thinking about going back through my 'fic bits' tag and moving some of them onto AO3, and there's a part of me that wants to do a full sweep just for archival purposes (because, listen, Tumblr is going to go away someday and we all know it), but while some need only minimal editing and some just need expansion, some of them are... not at all in the shape of what I would consider a 'story,' or would need so much context to get there that I might as well just write the longfic I was deliberately doing a short on Tumblr to avoid writing out. XD;; Not to mention the ones that have just been made so totally not-canon-compliant by new canon released since that I'd feel weird putting them up on AO3 now!

While I was backing up my phone I found this attempt at a Kirby-style design for Okina Matara I drew a while back, kind of inspired by the Eternals/New Gods/etc, so I decided to color her in.

I've been viewing your Red Dwarf Pokemon AU and I love it. I just have a question: In that Universe, are Simulants and GELFs the same as in the original universe, or is it like Cyborg Pokemon and GELFs which are genetically engineered Pokemon (a bit like Mewtwo)?
Omg this is like my second ever ask!!! 😊
Simulants and GELFs are the same as they are in the original universe, but they all have thematically appropriate Pokémon too!
That way there can be Pokémon battles beyond Lister's Snorlax absolutely trouncing Rimmer's Snivy for the 100th time (after Rimmer demands a battle for the 100th time).
In some episodes, they run into Pokémon that are companions to other sentient life forms, and sometimes they run into planets full of wild Pokemon they've never seen before!
Other times, Pokémon on the ship start causing problems:
Lister leaving trash everywhere has resulted in way more Grimer than the ship can sustain and they need to find a trash planet for them to live happily in.
Magnemite have gotten into the ship's engine and are causing increasingly bizarre malfunctions.
A Ditto with sunglasses is out to cause problems by impersonating the ship's crew! Stuff like that!
Every once in a while, they can run into a legendary Pokémon. Which would be hilarious because the boys (with the exception of Kryten) are completely incapable of speaking to a majestic elder god with anything approaching the proper amount of respect!
They do probably run into a Mewtwo (or Mewtwo-like situation) at some point and then they have to deal with an angry super-intelligent, super-powerful, genetically engineered, malevolent Pokémon with major emotional issues.
It'd make for a great multi-part episode or movie special, and I picture it happening shortly before Rimmer goes off to be Ace (whereupon he will achieve the character growth we all deserved to see in canon)!
Early in the special, Lister's kindness is what first plants seeds of doubt about the value of cruelty in the Mewtwo creature's mind.
As the plot progresses, it seems more and more like a heartfelt speech from Lister might solve the whole thing.
But then, Lister is knocked out or temporarily turned into stone during the climax, and it is suddenly up to RIMMER of all people to make a last-ditch appeal to Mewtwo's sense of love and kindness!
("Well! We're doomed!" chirps the Cat, from whatever psychic prison he is stuck in. Kryten, who at this point has been reduced to his eyeballs by a psychic blast, somehow manages to nod in agreement. (But what they don't know is that I, Jack! am the one writing this special! And I am a very specific kind of writer.))
Rimmer looks at the possibly-dead Lister... looks at himself... and then looks at the furious psychic being killing them all...
And he ends up making an impassioned speech about how Lister doesn't deserve this. ("Maybe I do. Maybe even the Cat and Kryten. but not Lister.") About how Lister keeps seeing bits of good in everyone, even Rimmer. Lister even saw good in Mewtwo!
("Please... he's... he's a good man. Yes, he's a disgusting, childish idiot with less brain cells than dead liver cells, but he's a good person. Look into his brain. You have to see that. That has to count for something.")
This is the first time in the series we've seen Rimmer say something nice about Lister. The Cat and Kryten are dumbfounded.
And no one is more surprised than Rimmer that it actually works.
