"I just enjoy them acting out their play" That's me and "Being Human" right now. Me and most things, right now. But...
Yay, for new fannish love! I have definitely seen the Lister/Rimmer in Red Dwarf. I'm thinking it was more than slash goggles that made me see that, but it's been so long since I've watched the series, I'm not remembering where within the series that was. (And there's always the possibility that I did imagine that bit. :-p )
Re: serious vs silly: They're like Ford Prefect and Aurthur Dent that way (I say that because I've read fanfic of those two, but not of L/R) - if you remove the funny, awkward traits, you've removed the characters. It does take talent to write a 'romance' around that dynamic and make it work.
