   OH PLEASE OH PLEASE OH please don't do this to the story....

Please---while it's crystal clear that you and others don't like the
sexual undertones of this story, that's the way it's been written so
far, and it would appear to be the way the author want to write it.

The author is not allowing it to break out into a full fledged lemon,
and the resulting sexual tension definately adds to this story's
unique flavor (so to speak).  I for one have no problems with the way
it's being written.

White Wolf suggested a neat solution to the fact that just below the
surface of this story there are lemons trying to break out, all the
while keeping the necessary (I believe) innocence of the characters
(and giving them new and improved opportunities to blush :-).  And
having them wake up in each other's arms (but clothed) would be very
nice---for one thing it's a sure bet it'll be plenty long before Ranma
gets physical affection from Akane in this universe, just like the last.

In fact, having a mother and sister to hug is likely to do rather good
things for Ranma, and additionally help explain his improved character.
