Well, I'm glad you found it IC (and presumably enjoyed it. ^_^;) Sadly, I
have to disagree with the rest of it. ^.-
I enjoyed reading Bitter End, and found it well-written and gripping. I
didn't find it IC; Ukyou came across as a plaster saint and Ranma seemed
weak and submissive.
There are, IMHO, several excellent darkfics that are IC. "Lies", by
Jeff Hosmer, is a textbook example. See also the R2096 series by Chris
Willmore.
