Ryouga,

I have one quesiton,  Ranma, Genma and Ryouga have been cursed for at least a full year longer than Shampoo.  Why haven't they lost their minds?  You had Mousse state that she seemed to retain her mind until after she and Mousse had reached Japan.

Does Shampoo have a weaker will than Genma, Ryouga or Ranma?  I can buy her having a weaker will than Ryouga or Ranma, but Genma?

Inquiring minds want to know. :)

Thanks,

Mike Allen

        Mousse stood and glared into a mirror. He looked at his hands and
frowned as they shook uncontrollably. At his feet Shampoo purred and
rubbed his leg happily. He had just fed her. "Oh Shampoo, if only you had
been so affectionate with me when you were still human." he whispered.
"Still, I cannot face that monster again yet. I must find a way do defeat
her." he muttered as he collapsed on the small mat he had been sleeping
in. He held his head in his hands and just sat. Shampoo worked her way on
to his lap and simply sat with a satisfied purr. "You aren't really
Shampoo any more are you? Your just a cat now. Even if I were to find a
way to bring you back you would never be my beloved again." he said sadly
as he stroked her fur affectionately.
        "That is correct. It is best if she remains as she is." said a
voice from behind Mousse. He showed no signs of being surprised.
        "It wouldn't matter, I know even if her mind didn't leave her she
would have to remain as she is to retain her honor. I am glad she did
lose it and could find happiness." replied Mousse as he turned to face
Cologne.
