- I may question your interpretation of canon.



Having disassembled it, Kei took her time examining each part: the

rifling and precision of the barrel, the robustness of the trigger,

the accuracy of the sights once adjusted, and the clever packing of the

ammunition to squeeze in a couple more rounds.  Then she snapped it all

back together and blew away a target, timing herself, then trying not

to let her jaw drop at the size of the hole in the target.



Yuri stood to the side, smiling.  "So, what do you think?"



"Verrry nice.  You're sure you've never been a professional gunsmith?"



"Mm-hmm!  So, think it'll win?"



"Not a chance."



"But..."



"Yuri, he said *canon*.  One n."  She held up the gun, wondering how to

get Yuri to let her keep it.  "This...is a very abstract interpretation

of the storyline, at best."



Unless your

- story is a perfect replication of you in all regards, in which case,

- you have my congratulations for doing what no human has managed to date.



"How's this work again?"



Kiyone glanced at Sasami, only daring to take her eyes off the

experiment for one second at a time.  "Simple.  We feed in Mihoshi's

life story, along with her physical characteristics, and this machine

pops out a male version of her.  Don't ask me why Washu had it laying

around; I'm sure we don't want to know."



"But you only fed in a paragraph."



"Just the significant details.  That should be enough."  Lowering her

voice, she mumbled, "Besides, that's all HQ would tell me when I asked

how she got that way."



"So...what's the point, anyway?"



"To make someone that Mihoshi would like even more than Tenchi.  Don't

give me that look, we both know it's only going to hurt them both if

she has to keep fighting Ryoko and Ayeka.  Anyway, my plan is to

introduce them - they should fall in love at first sight - then help

them get comfortable with each other if necessary.  I shouldn't have to

do a thing by the third date."



"Oh, I see!  And before we know it, they'll be married, and there will

be lots of little Mihoshis running around, right?"



"That's right, Sasa..."



Realization shock lasted three point nine seconds.  Sasami timed it.



"WHAT AM I DOING?!?!?!?  Sasami, quick, help me shut this thing down!"



Sasami complied, keeping her grin to herself.  Pointing mistakes out

like this was so much more effective than Ayeka's or her parents' ways,

and the funny expressions were such a delightful bonus.



- Adrian Tymes will now explain why or why not.



Because.



BUT NOT BOTH.



Too late.  ^_-
