Amost all of the Ranma fanfiction out there is basically  about Ranma
and his indescion over which fiancee to marry. Is there or has any one
considered pairing up Nodoka and Soun? Character wise they are sorely
neglected.

A very well timed question, the FFML belched up a story from 
Michael Chen <michael.h.chen@yale.edu> a day or so ago called...
er... Alternative Reality Number #2 (man, he has to do something
about that title, even if it is a WIP) If the FFML hasn't spat that
one out at you yet, go ask him for it. Soun and Nodoka are all set
to marry in that fic. 

And if you were talking about pairing up, just not to each other,
there's one called something like A Time for Tendo, or something like
that, where things are developing between Soun and Hinako.

The thing with Nodoka is that to pair her up, you have to either get 
her a divorce or kill Genma off/have him presumed to be killed off. 
(Gives a long suffering sigh as he waits expectantly for the "Yeah, 
let's kill Genma off, that bastard" replies). There's always 
Happi's Legacy(form. Happi's Delight), if you want her paired to 
someone besides the fuzzball.

(Since there's a bit of a plague of "Why aren't there more X/Y pairings?'
spam going on at the moment, I think I'll throw in mine. Why aren't there
more Kodachi/Ranma pairings? I'd like to see one where Ranma isn't a 
raving sicko loony to marry her, and it'd be nice if it wasn't a darkfic
either. Yes, of course I know that Ranma doesn't love Kodachi, and that
Kodachi's hate of Ranma's girl side complicates things. So go change it,
eh? I'd be satisfied with an alternate history fic. Somebody? Please?)
