I really agree with Joseph on this. Helping to define and refine the
characters and how hey think is one of the best parts of many of the best
fanfics. Such events, as I think happened in the last few paragraphs,
although sadly occuring in reality, really bring things down in a fanfic.
Especially in a fanfic based upon upbeat universes as Ranma's. Sure, bad
and really unusual things happen to them on a fairly regular bases, but
not this.
Some time ago I believe Rumiko Takahashi said, in response to a question
of whether or not Ranma could become pregnant, that she would not think
about such things and neither should we. I think that such an events as
happened at the end of this fanfic are among those things that we should
not think about when we think of the Ranma universe.
