Before I begin this MSTing of God Boy's fic, I have something for all 
you Ranma and Usagi 2-gether 4-ever groupies (don't worry, I'm one 
too but I feel I have to bring this up) to chew on.

What about poor old Mamoru?

True, he did dump her over a dream in SMR but he's been faithful ever 
since.  (Don't worry I have a solution in mind but I still want to 
see what you think.)

I say match him up with someone from the Ranma cast. Probably Ukyou.

*Not Rei damnit leave her alone you bastard you hear me not Rei never 
Rei*

[Flashman: Awww... spoilsport.
Trident: Need a comma after damnit and start a new sentance after 
bastard.
Sakura: You know, this is the most intense C&C we've ever done.]

Uhhh...actually, this is one of those times where you *don't* do proper
punctuation. This is what we call an 
"aggravated train of thought" sentence. This is a sentence reflecting a
character's thoughts, written to reflect the speed and force at which the
thoughts are coming. It works something like this:

As Shinji stared at the oncoming Angel, he thought, "I mustn't run away I
mustn't run away I mustn't run away I mustn't run away"

He remembered when Beryl tricked him into meeting Metallia, and how 
he was possessed, corrupted by that power, and how he became Jadeite, 
last of the generals of the Dark Kingdom.  And he remembered, with 
vivid detail, the end of the Silver Millennium.  How the other 
generals merely backed him up as he waded through the Senshi, first 
killing off Saturn, then Uranus and Neptune at once.  He remembered 
Jupiter fighting him almost to a standstill, Mercury dying quickly, 
and Venus begging for mercy.   

[Flashman: Um, note here.  The Outer Senshi didn't die in the Silver 
Millenium.  For a reason I forget, they had abandonded their post and 
when they came back, they were caught in the origional Serenity's 
power beam and reincarnated in the future.]

Not exactly "abandoned". Remember that the function of the Outer Senshi is
to defend the Moon Kingdom, and more importantly the Solar System, from
external threats. The Dark Kingdom came from *Earth*. It wasn't in their
jurisdiction. And you know how Uranus and Neptune are...they take great
pains not to help the Inner Senshi unless they have to.

"If he doesn't have a chance, then Crimson is doomed."  Jadeite 
walked over to the Queen, who had been silent for quite a while now.  
"He's right.  I haven't fought someone as a Shieldsman for almost 
eleven millennia.  Ares was a better fighter than me in the Silver 
Millennium, he'd swat me away like an insect now."  He took the 
bracers, and held them out to Serenity.  "Your Majesty, give Apollo 
my power.  Make him able to fight Blood, because he's the only one 
who can."  He let his eyes slide over to Apollo, and the barest hints 
of a smile touched his face.

[Flashman: Who saw that coming?
(Both Flashman and Trident raise their hands.)
Sakura:(Talking in her sleep) Ohhh Usagi-chan... that feels nice.
Trident:(Confused) Huh?
Flashman: O_O]

O_o

Serenity brought her hands up to Jadeite's, and closed his hands over 
the bracers he held.  Her smile as she looked into the haunted man's 
eyes seemed to lift some of the pain from his heart.  "Thank you, 
Verdant," she corrected herself as the man winced.  "Jadeite.  But 
that won't be necessary."  She released his hands, and turned to 
Apollo.  "Apollo, stand before me."

[Trident: Need a comma after "smile" and after "eyes."]

<shakes head> No, actually you don't.

"Just do what feels natural," two familiar voices intoned in unison.  
Looking to the source of the voices, several of the Senshi could not 
help but smile at the familiarity.  Luna and Artemis walked in and 
hopped up on the table.

[Flashman:(Imitating Serenity) And just WHERE have YOU TWO been?
Sakura:(Still sleep talking) Yes, Diana could use some brothers and 
sisters.
Trident: How did she do that?]

Something tells me we'd be better off not knowing.

[Flashman: I know, it looks like something right out of... (starts 
singing)
GO GO POWER RANGERRRRS!
(Sakura bolts awake.)
Sakura: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!  SHINKU-HADOKEN!
(BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!
!)
Flashman:(Smokin') Ow......ie.
Trident:(Confused) What did she do THAT for?]

You even have to *ask*?
