Whose Life Is It Anyway is a dark fic, but in a way, it's also
heart warming.  I got it from the remailer and when the story
ended (to be continued) Ranma and Akane admitted that they loved
each other and Akane developed a ki attack/defense.  Now, if the
author were to delve into Ranma's dreams about the incident,
*then* it would be darker.

The author replied:
:>Ranma admitted it, Akane didn't. And Ranma, if/when he regains his
memory, could still deny it.

If my memory serves me right (and it usually does) after Ranma said
that she loved Akane, she replied that she loved Ranma back.  She
was a little hesitant and a little shaky when she said it, but she
said it nonetheless.

Er, I think it was more a kind of  'reassurance' than an actual 
admission, she was able to convince herself it wasn't really Ranma.

This becomes clearer later, but maybe I should rework that scene a 
little...
