Summary
I first did this rewrite back in 2016, and I have only just totally redone this.
I love this Episode so I decided to rewrite the Episode with my OC in the storyline.
**Spoilers If no one has seen the Episode **

The crew encounters the terminally ill hologram Ace Rimmer, who asks Rimmer to take his place as the universe's heroic guardian. Rimmer undergoes training to become the new Ace, and after Ace's hologram fades away, Rimmer's death is faked by Lister so he can take on the new role without the others knowing especially Luna.

Kochanski, Teresa
Occupation: Second Flight Mechanic, (Present) Third Astronavigations Officer (Former)
Next of Kin: Kochanski, Kristine
Relation: SisterLittle Kochanski Junior is repairing a Starbug 4 when the radiation leak fries the rest of the crew, leaving her with just enough time to get inside the shuttle, and seal herself in a stasis pod. 3 million years later Dave Lister is woken up and let loose on the ship again. 3 years after that, Holly suddenly remembers about the second human life he had been supporting down in the shuttle bay.
Imagine being stuck 3 million and 3 years in the future with a half senile, geriatric, computer, a mutant feline, a cluster of light that was once a human being, and your sister's ex boyfriend. For Teresa, that nightmare has just become a reality. Oh yeah, and just before the leak, she snogged one of them and will have to live with that fact of life for the rest of hers. -

Summary
'He was moping again.
Bumming about the ship in a less peppy manner than usual, humming sappy love ballads and staring longingly into deep space. At times like this Listers motivation to do anything for himself, having already nosedived off a cliff following the extinction of the human race, seemed to sink below sea level. If Rimmer didn’t intervene soon, he’d start bothering Lennon and McCartney with digestives and flirting with the vending machines.'OR, Rimmer trying to get Dave out of a depressive episode, set around series 10. Since returning from being Ace he has realised that he is a repressed homosexual but is yet to figure out how to stop being a repressed homosexual.

The Red Dwarf crew encounter Ace Rimmer, a parallel-universe version of their own Arnold Rimmer who is brave, popular, and heroic. Ace pilots a dimension-jumping prototype craft and arrives on Red Dwarf by accident after the two ships collide. While Lister and Cat easily befriend Ace along with his instant liking for Luna.
Rimmer develops a strong dislike for him, viewing him as a smug, perfect version of himself that represents all the opportunities and qualities he lacks along with a strong feeling of total jealous towards him with Ace flirting with Luna.

Summary
It was meant to be a quick eight-month hop to the edge of the Solar System, where Ursula Hurse, Lieutenant, Engineering Officer First Class, was bound for better and brighter things.
Fate has other ideas.
For starters, for some godforsaken reason, it has decreed that she should get stuck on a ship three million years into the future with the neurotic ghost of the boy she used to paint model aeroplanes and play war games with.

Summary
Lister was.. different, Rimmer noted, noticing how he was almost childlike in his current attitude. Well then, if Lister would act like a child, Rimmer would treat him like one. Not in the cruel, tough-love, condescending way, but in the way you’d speak to an excitable and jumpy animal that you were trying your hardest not to scare away, because if you spoke too harsh or too loud, moved too quickly or too suddenly, it would flee and cower.
OR: Lister has a not so nice time cooped up with Rimmer for a week straight during Marooned, but Rimmer is much more understanding than he ever expected the hologram to be.

Summary
Cloned Governor KA3-5555555 of the Blue-hat Cat colony ‘Curiosity’ is in trouble. The crops are struggling, the population is stagnant, and communication with home is at an all-time low on account of the nearby galactic GELF civil war nearing its conclusion ‘any day now’ and a government that seems more interested in self-congratulation than actually helping those posted in the outskirts of their glorious empire.
Still, short of Cloister himself showing up uninvited; he might just about turn this dustbowl around.
----
Still recovering from their time impression in floor 13, the crew take a small break from their attempts to use Wildfire’s jump drive to get Kochanski home to check out a nearby terraformed planet populated by a small settlement of Cats.

Summary
This was my very first Red Dwarf Story I wrote back in 2012.
Recently I have completely rewritten it.
This is based off the ending to the season1 Episode "Waiting for God" I was looking for away to write my OC in to Red Dwarf.
So instead of Rimmer finding the Garbage Pod, he finds an Cryo Pod from the 21st century which contents Luna (My OC)I hope you enjoy reading it and leave nice and positive comments no nasty or bitchy comments.

Summary
