One good MST deserves another, so here goes!

	(Previously:  In this alternate universe, the Jyuusenkyo Springs 
change minds as well as bodies.  Thus Ranma's female form is a 

completely 

different personality who calls herself Ranko.  Despite this, Ranma 

is 

still engaged to Akane.  Ryouga has fallen into the Spring of 

Drowned Boy 

(or something very like it) and his alter-ego is called Shinnosuke.  

In 

the last chapter, Shampoo (now called "Princess Shampoo") arrived 

from 

China with her entourage, seeking a husband.) 

Lurker: 'Bout time we got to see more of this one.

Dinner was very interesting.  Kasumi and I had put a lot of 
effort into making traditional Japanese dishes suitable for foreign 

nobility.

Lurker: Too bad nobody bothered to tell them about Makudonarudo...

Hikaru: <giggle>

They were interested in absolutely everything about Japan, and how 

the food >was prepared, and if we really killed ourselves at the 
slightest >provocation, and a thousand other things. 

Lurker: No, but they will swear to break an enemy's body to pieces 
over the slightest provocation...

Father and Mr. Tendou did manage to get Shampoo's father to come 
with them for a walk after dinner.  

Lurker: And they promptly got him wasted on sake...

Akane and Nabiki kept our guests entertained as best they could, 

Lurker: TABLE DANCE! WOO WOO!

Ryouga having wandered off somewhere.  

Lurker: As is his wont...

	Shampoo covered her mouth with one hand, and yanked her out the 
window with the other, then up out of sight.  A pretty amazing 

physical 

feat, if you think about it.
	Not being the brightest girl on Earth, I leaned out the window to 
see what was happening.  Shampoo came swinging back down, and --

whoosh-- 

I was on the roof.  

Umi: Rapist! Hentai lesbian rapist!

Lurker, Fuu, Hikaru: <facefault>

	"Right, but that's not the way Ryouga saw it.  He said that Ranma 
was obviously a weakling for not being able to beat a girl.  And 

Ranma 

said that if Ryouga thought it was so easy, he should try it himself.

"

	"Oh.  No.  That jerk!"

Fuu: What a very Ranma-ish thing for him to say...

Umi, Hikaru, Lurker: <sweatdrop>

	"Well, Shampoo had to give him some kind of engagement kiss, and 
Ryouga got a really bad nosebleed.  Guess being lost all the time, 

he 

never had a girlfriend before."

Lurker: <snicker>

	Kasumi smiled.  "You'd be surprised, Ranko.  You'd be surprised."

Lurker: <gasp> Kasumi's going to jump in Nanniichuan and challenge 
Shampoo!

Hikaru, Umi, Fuu: <bash Lurker>

Fuu: This was an excellent chapter, SKJAM!-san. 

Umi: Keep up the good work!

Hikaru: Ato de!

(fade out)
