Ok!  I am back again!  A coupla fics on the block today, so here we go.

First, 'A Scary thought' Part one by Felix Tritschler.  An alternate
reality story involving Kasumi in a new light.  Of course, I am
interested to see if the characters introduced in the intro are
signifigant in any way.  The overall story seems to be following as
close to the Ranma 1/2 storyline, at least as close as you can get with
Kasumi as the main character.  Part Two arrived in my mailbox just
moments before i started this, so at this time, All I will say is, Not
to bad there.  Keep it up, but if you botch this one, well, be warned. 
:)

Next on the schedule, 'Triad' by Jen Sabado.  This is your first work,
or first submission?  If it's your first work, you got a good start. 
First submission?  Great opening.  I for one have always wondered if the
Pantyhose Taro syndrome could be duplicated intentionally.  However
(Here is where the bad comes in) if the Jusenkyo waters could be
manipulated like that, why haven't the Amazons done so before?  Cologne
is a VERY good herbalist, she should know about it.  Of course, Shampoo
might not even take Ranma if he was joined with Mousse.  After all, you
yourself said it makes basically a new person.  Not to mention the
personality conflits that would ensue.  Plus, Kuno, Mousse and Ryoga
seemed to work together too easily from the start.  Although I must
admit, I liked reading this one.  Good show!

Next, Contemplations by Jonathan Lavallee.  He asked for personal
delivery of C&C, but I am gonna put it here.  This is a short fic about
Ranma and Akane coming to terms with themselves.  Good insight, but of
course, everyone knows that if Ranma and Akane sat and actually thought
things through, all their troubles would be over (No, I am not saying
that they are fated to be together).  He also mentioned no C&C about
grammer and spelling, but there are a lot of mistakes.  Don't read this
one unless you're one of us that can make mental corrections as fast as
you can read.  A lot of missing works, punctuation, and a coupla
spelling mistakes.  Still, it kinda reminds me of 'Between a Rock and a
Hard Place' (at least, I think that's the title), without the
interaction of the other fiancees.  'Comtemplations' is one to read if
you like that sort of thing.

Well, that's it for right now.  I have to go, plus a Warcraft II session
planned for this evening, so I will leave it at this for now, with more
to come in the (hopefully) near future.  Also, a note for Zen, Thank you
for your input.  I too caught the problem at the end of the story,
although too late for the one I sent you.  :)
