Nabiki  
A Ranma 1/2 Fanfic by Christina Woog


	Nabiki Tendo casually leaned out a window of Furinkan High and watched. 
There wasn’t much to do after school except for walk home-- *Alone* Her

	“Kuno honey, just pick one and get it over with. I can’t sit here and 
wait all day you know.” Nabiki stopped filing her nails long enough to 
throw him and exasperated glance. “Just pick one, and pay up!” She

that matter), but sometimes,  waiting for Kuno to make up his mind was 
just so infuriating. He, like all other men Nabiki had encountered in 
her life, seemed to have a horrible time being decisive. Watching Kuno 
practically drool over the photos she had taken was too much. *Men. So 
pradicatable. Somehow, you always know what they are going to--*

Nabiki’s thought was cut off by Kuno, who stood up sharply, practically 
sending her  flying backwards. 

Heh. Sometimes they surprise you!

liked to think that she had all the patience in the world- especially 
for when it came to business. But of course, Nabiki thought with a roll 
of her eyes, it took him the whole entire study period to conclude that

Not the same address you posted from, so I'm sending to both.

Character study fics are always a pleasure when they're well done, and
it looks like you've got Nabby down pretty well. It would be better if

Looking forward to more!
