Rip Kryten, you would've loved the Great British Bake-Off 🤧

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

the sheer amount of grief the red dwarf characters must be feeling off screen all the time astounds me, like even setting aside the incomprehensible reality of being 3 million years away from all of humanity they've all felt such extreme losses over the course of the show im surprised any of them can keep up the whole space adventures shindig

like in the series 2 to 3 timeskip lister had to give up his sons just after 3 days or risk their lives- had to watch them age at such an expedited rate if he blinked he would miss every major milestone, their first steps their first words all of it. and then to have to leave them to save them??? id be bloody inconsolable and then they just kinda move on from it

and rimmer? hes died multiple times, experienced the void and end of existence and been pulled back - and those years as a soft light hologram not being able to touch anything and needing to ask holly to simulate everything for him? never getting much of an actual choice over clothes, his body, what he can actually interact with (this concept was more prevalent in series 1 and 2 but nonetheless) sure he could ask for it but its not the same as getting the free will or real control over anything. AND THE 557 YEARS ON RIMMERWORLD ALSO like ??? they left you in that room, there alone, for five hundred and fifty seven years, thats 28,964 weeks, or 203,305 days thats INSANE. he doesnt even remember the names of his shipmates properly after all that. THATS ONLY AFTER THE BEGINNING OF THE SHOW, MIND. before that he'd spent years being belittled and abused by his parents (so much so that a court emancipated him at only 14) his classmates, everyone in his life only tolerated and made snide remarks at him at Best.

cat too, his entire civilisation wiped themselves out, hes the only survivor of a 3 million year long race of people (granted it took them a while to get to humanoid but i rest my case)

even kryten and holly arent excluded from this overwhelming loss that pervades every aspect of the show, kryten spent possibly hundreds of years ignorant to the fact that the crew of his ship had died, i wonder if he ever wondered why they stopped speaking to him? stopped giving him laundry to fold, refusing to eat any food he made for him? and as for Holly, 3,000,000 years alone on a ship in the cold black vastness of space surrounded only by the ashes of the crew you once tended for, guiding them to safety, who were reliant on you, needing you for every part of their lives it would seem. really could make a computer go mad, that sort of thing

fuck it..... maid dress Kryten for today 👍

cringetober 22 - maid dress

[miniherodesktales]

I'm sick 🤧🤧

Q for you all: out of all the Dwarf crew who would be the worst patient?

My heart is telling me that somehow it might be Kryten because I suspect it would be a disaster for others to look after him, and they just wouldn't be able to meet his high standards.

Let's face it, it would be Lister bringing him mugs of hot oil with lemon and getting it wrong. Meanwhile Rimmer would be trying to organise the Scutters to take over Kryten's chores, while trying to prove they can do a better job...He would over organise and plan and get nothing productive done....Cat would just be nowhere to be seen.

We've already seen Lister and Rimmer sick. One ended up living hallucinations and the other just went nuts....but at least they weren't demanding constant attention and hot water bottles 🤣

I think Cat's main concern would be to keep looking good. Like the Victorians romantcing TB because of the pale skin and red lips.

[rimmer-ish]

Kryten! Silly guy.

[red-wop]

Right but like, rewatching Polymorph atm and there's a bit where Kryten just completely loses his accent

Literally that's just Roberts regular voice, what's going on

FINALLY!! After quite a few months, I have gotten round to making the Season 7 Red Dwarf OOC!!!

Enjoy :D :D

Ngl I think Ive been putting off doing this season and season 8 but Ive gotta do them eventually I suppose

Also, Capcut mobile has absolutely just broken down on my phone so I had to edit this on pc (which I didn't mind), unfortunately it means the emoji's weren't quite right so I had to re import the video to my phone to add the usual emojis - hence why there's less on this one than usual, because Capcut hates me

[optimisticrunawaygalaxy]

New "draw your OCs in this" meme just dropped boys

[sophiemcswag]

the red dwarf x rocky horror picture show crossover nobody asked for!!!

(ignore all the costume irregularities, i ended up just having fun with it😭 also them wearing the lesbian flag colours was an honest accident but not a bad one in my opinion)

[bellacatt-art]

Ever since Kryten mentioned in his introduction episode that he's always wanted his own garden, I've been really wanting to draw him achieving that dream, so this happened! ^-^

♡ Likes and reblogs are super appreciated, thank youu!! :D
