Subject: [idea] The Ranma/Xena thing

I've been reading all of the ideas that have been thrown about
for this 'fic idea and I think all of you are going about it all wrong.

The best crossover fics combine the two stories without replacing them
with unnecessary parts.  See X-Change Students or Still Waters for 
example.  You don't need to "match up" Nabiki with Salmoneus because 
it's just not necessary.  That wouldn't be fun, anyway.

The core of the Xena Universe is Xena herself, and possibly Gabrielle.
No other persons are needed.  Joxur, maybe, but then again, maybe
not.  All that's needed for the two worlds to collide is maybe a little
time displacement care of a Nanban mirror, or even better yet, the same
chakram that brought Xena's spirit into her 1940's descendant.

We'll see what you come up with, but I'm writing my own.
