"Geez, I'm getting tired of this," said Ranma.

"Hey, how did you do that?"

"Do what?" Ranma wondered.

"You did it again!"

"I did *what* again?!" wailed Ranma, annoyed.

"That... that stuff.  After talking, you know?"

"Oh, you mean this:" asked Ranma.  He laughed, "That's easy"  He
leaned forwards and whispered into Akane's ear.

"Oh," said Akane, surprised.  "It *is* easy.  I think I'll be
talking like this from now on."  She smiled at Ranma.  "Thanks."




Sorry, but the total lack of descriptive parts grated on me.  If
you're writing dialogue-only, the dialogue must be fitted to the
style and *take over* the part of the descriptions.  That's a bit
clunky, like in radio plays, but it definitely works better than
just leaving out the descriptions completely.

BTW, I did like your beginning;  It had quite some neat ideas - I
won't be taking part in the round robin scheme, though.
