This fanfic Idea isthe result of sleep deprevation and reading this list.  The
idea came partly from the recent thread on Ranma becoming pregnant, and partly
from a dream I had last night. The realy frightening part, is that I am
actualy concidering writing it.

So?  Write it! ^_^

Basicaly, what if as some authors have suggested, more than just Ranma's body
was changed when he fell in the spring at jusenkyo?  Perhaps his mind was
changed slightly as well, or at least began to change.Basicaly the first time
Kuno glomped onto him he might have noticed something, but no much.  Besides,
any one, male or female, has the same basic reaction to Kuno(i.e.  hit him
with the largest object avaliable.) When Ryoga showed up he would still be
adjusting to the idea.  He might have started having dreams or something. Wich
would have probobly caused him to start fighting more, or do other things, to
prove to himself that he is a man. It is possible that he could have eventualy
fallen in love with a man.  Wich technicaly might be exceptable, sence he does
spend much of his time as a female.

Read Lawson's "Thy Outward Part"  Similar idea, wonderful story.
it's at http://home.sprynet.com/sprynet/sterman/fanfic.htm

It could start basicaly with him actualy buying female clothing, wich Kasume
might find ocasionaly while doing the wash.  At first she would probably
assume that the clothes were Akane's.  Some items of course would on a
concistant basis be to large or to small for Akane.  After all Akane is
conciderably larger than Ranma-chan, except that (and this is not meant to be
vulger.  I actualy plan to avoid a lemon with this one) except that Ranmas
braw size is larger.

Similar idea as "Clothes Make The..." by Nightelf
it's at http://people.tamu.edu/~nwl9354/fanfic.html

Kasume is not dense.  She might not say a word, but she would notice. Then
again she might ask him/her about it, and Ranma might tell the truth.  He has
never been able to lie to Kasume.
He might even start wearing these clothes around the others while in girl
form.  A fact that would make Soun and Genma very nervouse, and possible
convince Akane that he is up to something.
Why would he fall for Moose?  Why not.  Moose is quite possibly the most sane,
and most honorable male cast member.

You have _got_ to be joking!!!  Sane!  The way he chases Shampoo is as
bad, if not worse, than the way Kuno chases Akane and Ranma.  He
constantly tries to glomp Shampoo despite her protests and he constantly
tries to kill Ranma for imaginary insults against Shampoo.  And
honorable?!  I suppose kidnapping Akane and threatening to turn her into
a duck is honorable?  Using weapons in a battle which he agreed _not_ to
use them is honorable too?  Oh, and challenging Ranma to a duel and then
fighting with Ryoga is honorable?  Don't tell me, you thought that
ganging up on Ranma with the rest of the male cast when the found out he
had lost his strength was honorable.  Even Ryoga is more sane and
honorable than Mousse (and I dispise Ryoga like you wouldn't
believe--I'm basically neutral to Mousse though)

Kuno, is a letch.  He is not exactly ugly. From the oppinions stated by the
females in the story, he is quite handsome, but he is a letch, and a bit of an
air head.  From the onset, he would declare his love loudly and promptly glomp
onto his pig tailed princess.

Yes!  Someone else who thinks that Kuno is a dishonorable pervert!  I'm
getting really tired of characterizations where Kuno is the epitome of
Samurai honor dispite all the evidence to the contrary in the Manga--not
that such characterizations don't have their place, but it's getting a
little old.

Ryoga is mentaly unstable.  He is more sane possinly than Kunoe, or maybe not.
 He is a bitter angry person, when he can keep his concentration, and he is
prone to boughts of violence resulting in property damage rateing in the tens
of thousands, in dollars American.  And due to his bad direction sence he is
not around enough to develope a relationship with any one.  As for honor,
there is on little matter that can not under any circumstances be overlooked.
The matter of a certain little pig, that sleeps on a certain youg ladies
pillow.

I'm not going to touch this one.  the Church of Ryoga would have my
head.

Those are the only other male characters their age that are their on a regular
basis.

There's always Genma and Soun ^_^; not to mention Gosunkugi, Hiroshi,
and Daisuke ^_^;;

Of course I still havent figured out how he is going to tell Ukyo, or shampoo.
I am also not completly positive of how he is going to tell Akane, or how he
is going to handle her reaction.

I have decided that this won't be an actual alternat reality fic.  The main
part of it will take place towards the end of the anime, and might diverger
from there.  The anime and mange only covered what happened in the fore front,
it did not cover his feelings, and thoughts, or even what he did in the time
between episodes.  It is quite possible that he and moose may have been dating
before the failed weding attempt(I still have not seen that episode), or that
the weding was a last attempt to hold onto his identity as a man.

There isn't an episode of that yet.  Probably won't be either.  it is in
the manga though.

Who knows?  right now this is still in the rough concept fase.  I would be
gratefull for all the comments and suggestions you might want to send.

Somebody, _anybody_ except for Mousse and Kuno.  Mousse, because he's
far too obsessed with Shampoo and hates Ranma with a passion (almost as
bad a Ryoga actually).  Kuno, because...well, he's Kuno.  Though if
Kuno's faking everything then it is plausable.  I'd say go for the
Ranma/Ryoga pair.  Much as I dislike Ryoga, he and Ranma make the best
couple if Ranma were to go completely female and none of the girls were
to become male.
