Hi! Don't bite the newbie, please...

I know that the 'Ranma falls into pool of drowned goddess' has been done
over and over for a while, but I think I found a way to put a new spin
on it - rather than using AMG as the crossover source, I figured I'd use
Tenchi...

The premise is that for one reason or another, Tsunami has spent the
last couple of millenia trapped at Jusenkyo. The "pool of drowned x"
thing is a sham - Tsunami amuses herself with giving the customers the
form they deserve, and the Guide plays along. But when Tsunami takes a
look at Ranma's soul, she finds something interresting - a potential
soul-mate, someone that can actually get her out of this dreadful place.
Of course, this involves Ranma having Tsunami along for the ride...

The way I figure, the only parts of the Tenchi cast that are actually
going to be involved here are Tsunami, Tokimi and possibly Washuu. The
'normal' NWC is quite enough for general mayhem anyway...

Does this story sound workable? Would people read it?

Second story idea: Genma is not really that dishonorable, just
overenthusiastic and prone to overestimating himself and others. Thus,
after signing the infamous suicide pledge, he takes his son on a
training trip, and within six months winds up having a part time
daughter. This prompts Genma to take a good long look at his own life
and faults, and he winds up burning the book he got the directions to
Jusenkyo from, along with the Neko-Ken manual...

In their quest for a cure, they manage to get lost. Very lost. 20 years
in feudal Japan lost - with a 2:1 time dilation, meaning that only one
decade passed here before they got back. The result is a Ranma with
complete control of his "curse", swords, and an attitude towards
wannabes best summed up as 'go away and eviscerate yourself, your
exisance bothers me' - which infuriates Akane, and scares Kuno
witless... (In this alterverse, the key to mastering the curse is to
actually want and love both forms - which means that the younger the
victim the easier it gets. A character like Taro, for instance, would
have mastered it by age two...)

Same two questions as above...
