Ranma, run for the hills!

	(Of course, the *VERY SMALL* possibility for an Akane/Shampoo
   "encounter" exists, and would be very interesting to see written, but I have
   no talent for that sort of writing. :)

Hmm; a combination of darkness and mental incapacitation (sake, drugs,
fatigue, what have you) could get the to both think they're ravashing
Ranma-chan one night.  In the morning, they wake up in each other's
arms, take one look, and start sceaming....

If Ranma then burst in, he could get in a "You hentai!" comment for a change.
