Then there is the reversal of the twit factor.  Ranko is a bit short
tempered, but not as much as Akane.  While Ranma was a jerk most of the
time, Ranko is fairly polite until pushed, and Akane pushes as hard as
ever.  Here, *Akane* is the jerk - and I think that could get interesting
if properly handled.
I certainly wanted to keep the, um, *wild* character of Ranma-chan intact 
for this fic.  But Ranko doesn't have Ranma's arrogance over girls *and* 
she has been hiding something almost all of her life and thus is a little 
more polite sometimes.
     I just figured out a couple of possibilities for why Ranko didn't
punch Akane. First, she may have been playing the guy role, and therefore
not attacking the weaker sex. Secondly, she may have just been facing off
against someone so inferrior to her martial skills that she didn't want
to risk hurting Akane.

You say that you already have the ending relationships worked out... I will
be interested to see what you do with them...
I don't really want to give that away, yet.  Also, Characters have the 
habit of evolving during the writing and not obeying plans anymore. :)
     Just don't make us wait too long. :)

Looking forward to future installments,
     waiting as well.
