[Ah... the holiday season... where people mysteriously disappear...
For some strange reason, this week seems a bit light... It could just
be me... Anyhow, sorry for the lateness. :) I guess I'm the only person
staying home and doing nothing.]
The FFML Synopses List
======================
For the week of: Dec 27 - Jan 2
Moderator on Duty: Key (filling in for Jeremy, his mailbox went boom, so
I filled in for him, I guess)
Synopses Submitted: 13
This is the text version of the FFML Synopses List. If any of
the fics in this list seem interesting, you are suggested to
either use the FFML Archive Number, if provided, to retrieve the
fic from the FFML Archive, or to email the author. As stated
quite emphatically in the FFML FAQ, _DO NOT SEND REQUESTS TO THE
FFML_. Although, personally we won't do anything, chances are,
you might get verbally abused by a few... (j/k, most people on
the list are quite tolerant and do not bite... Just don't post
20 requests in a row...)
This list is sorted by series, and within each series, ordered
alphabetically, according to last names. The synopses here
represent whatever has been sent to us, from Saturday to Friday.

Title: Ranma-chan
Series: Ranma 1/2
Genre: What if. Not Original Flavor
Author: Luigi Mattera
Email: mattera@tiac.net
Homepage: (Soon!)
Date Sent to FFML: December 30th, 1997
Size: 91,526 Bytes (This Part Only!)
Summary:
A long and stressful period results in a usual turn of events with a very
different outcome. Ranma Saotome gets his head bashed in by Akane Tendo..
and is seriously injured. Total amniesia. The good news? He springs back
very quickly. The bad news? His new personality is female.
This is a serious look at a one shot anime episode.
A "what if" scenario, inspired by the fanfics who create characters from
a female Ranma.. and then fail to give them any personality.

Summary:
(Series) Natsume and Kurumi return to the Tendo's- not
because they want to make another challenge for the dojo, but because
Natsume is PREGNANT! Worse, she doesn't know who the father is, and the
two sisters have yet to find their parents.
(Chapter) Akane and Ranma share their first kiss. Ryouga shows up and
lets them know he's getting married to Akari, revealing his curse in the
process. A couple camping and a training scene. Ranma and Akane discover
some things about Natsume and Kurumi's parents. Generally, a very busy
chapter, which if I did a complete summary of I would be truncated
mid-sentence to get the summary down to 10 lines...

And thus ends this week's fanfiction summaries. Note, if any
errors have occurred in this compilation, such as:
a) Your submitted summary has not been included!
b) Any other weird quirk.
Do not hesitate to email us. Chances are, the PERL scripts, which
we may be using, are quite buggy and need a good rewrite or two.
The quicker these bugs get killed, the sooner the list becomes
better.
