	Hiya!

	Well, after several months, I finally got my latest fanfic done, 
so I guess it's time to start a new one.  I've got a few side things 
going (like YAAH!), but why limit myself to one story at a time?
	These are the current ideas I'm favoring right now... which do 
you think would be worth following up:

	1- Set a bit in the future, once the regular cast has aged a 
bit.  Things never worked out between Ranma and Akane; nothing drastic, 
they just... didn't get married, and havn't seen each other in quite a 
while.  Now he's married to Ukyou.  Life is good: the restaurant's 
popular, he teaches a bit, they've got a young son.
	And then he bumps into Akane.  Old feeling long thought submerged 
or dead resurface, and he starts to wonder if he really _is_ happy.  Will 
he risk everything he's currently got for Akane?

	2- Choices.  This one I thought of doing during the 'What if 
Ranma got Pregnant?' debate on the FFML a few months back.  Be damn tough 
to write, and probably not a happy fic.  However, after 'Thy Outward 
Part', and 'Serendipity', I'm not entirely sure it's worth persuing...

	3- An epic!  One of those whopping huge, plot-driven, intricate, 
action-filled Ranma stories, inspired by fanfics such as 'Hearts of Ice' 
and the sequel to 'Ranma Goes to War', who's name I can't quite remember 
at this time...  I've got a basic plot outline, and plan on drawing in 
various elements from Nephilim, the Cthulu mythos, Arthurian romances, 
and whatever else seems interesting or surfaces in my school classes.

	4- Anybody else got a nifty idea?
