Amusing as always.

However there is a slight continuity flaw in this as compared to the 
regular Ranmaverse.

Ranma left his mother sometime between the ages of 2 & 5.  He met 
Ryouga when he was at Junior High, that is when he was about 13-15 years 
old.  Ranma did not meet his mother again until late in the series, when he
would have been 16-17 years old.

While it is not impossible for Nodoka to know Ryouga, she is very 
unlikely to realise that Ryouga is Ranma's friend.  Not unless you have 
decided to redefine a major point of Ranma 1/2 history for your story.

However if you have Akane introduce Ryouga as Ranma's friend your story 
will need only minor rewriting, particularly if you choose to invent a 
prior connection between Ryouga & Nodoka - maybe Ryouga used to see her 
every so often in his wanderings and she would feed him out of pity, 
compassion or some other noble emotion.
