What is the best way to handle pronouns when refering to Ranma in his girl
mode?

It feels wierd to say 'she thought' but just as wierd to say 'he turned her
back'.  I've tried avoiding pronouns entirely, but that's just way too hard.
Also, it would be hard to read.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Hmm... reminds me of Nightelf's old .sig quote : "Pronouns are so hard
with these characters!"

Personally, I always thought it made the most sense to refer to
girl-Ranma as "she".  Ranma wouldn't like it, but the revengefic season
is over anyway, and it's less confusing to the reader, in my opinion.
Others might (and someone almost certainly will) disagree.

Revengefic season? You mean... we'll have to go through this again NEXt
year?!

Ranma: Hey, Akane! Check the calendar! It's Fanfic Author season!
Huhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuh!

Akane: So what are we going to do to them this year? we've pretty much
cursed them all with Nyannichiuan... well, except Padibast

Ranma: (Shudder) Don't remind me! we'll skip him this year, I think.
Hmm... maybe this is the year we introduce all the authors to the Kunou
clan?
