First off, I'd like to say that I loved your Seasons fanfics--great stuff!
 

Questions:

1> In the end Ranma must give up the last vial of formula to restore
Akane, what should I do with the other? There needs to be 3 from the
start, because if there were only ever 2, everyone knows that It
must be used in the end to save Akane.  I think the middle one is
critical for tension in the story, in that It "might" get used by
one of the cursed group. Now, how should I use it?

 
Hm.  Weird idea -- have Ranma get it, and then have Ryoga and Akane
try to figure out how to get it from him, without telling him what's
happened to them.  Akane (in Ryoga's body) asks for it first, Ranma
thinks it's Ryoga, accuses him of trying to foist off his curse on
someone else (confusing Akane), start fighting... Ryoga (in Akane's
body) trys to sweet talk it from him...

As far as the three vials being important, I think you're right.  One
thing you might want to try is to have them go after different vials
(both vials get stolen somehow or other, or maybe one goes to Ranma
and Happosai goes with the other one trying to swap bodies with Ranma.

Hm.

2> About the seeds and formulas. How can I get Ranma and the others
to go after Happosai for the the seeds, then the vials wihout
reveialing that Akane and Ryouga have swapped?

3> How can I make Colonge feel more guilty about the book?

Please, Ideas and comments are desperatly required.

I'm not sure I have any ideas about the other two questions.
