Preface; Or, How What Follows Came to be Written, and Whom You Should
Blame for It.

	A certain person recently wrote that those who were trying to cross
Evangelion with Ranma were engaging in folly.  He was largely ignored, and
chastised for his comments.  He has since apologized.

	However, Rod M. agreed with him in principle.

THE COVERING MY @$$ SECTION:

I agreed that writing a Ranma/Eva -crossover- fic wouldn't
work, for me anyway.  A Ranma/Eva fusion on the other hand,
is entirely possible.

In case you're not sure what I'm talking about...

Crossover: Ranma meets Ikari and they become pals
Fusion: Ranma goes to work for NERV, the agency that
        his father Genma runs, and is forced to pilot
        Evangelion Unit 1.

In a crossover, you take two set continuities and
have'em intersect.

In a fusion, you basically re-define the whole history
of the characters so they can fit in the other universe.

You can get away with a stupendous amount of things in
a fusion.  Lots.

	So what follows is all Rod M.'s fault, yes, Rod M. should be
blamed for what you want to do after reading this.  Go get 'im.

If this sort of story is the result of me saying something
offensive,  I should go ahead and call the whole ffml tasteless
or something.

Oh wait... never mind.

	[This is for the "Beyond the Sea" thing, Rod.  Revenge is best
served cold, and this has been out on the counter so long it's *really*
cold.  And *moldy*, too.]

Well hey, sorry about that, really. n.n;;;;;

	"Ne, Sempai, what's the traditional game of the Angels?" Maya
asked Ritsuko after the contents of the "letter" were made public.

	"Who cares?  TAKE ME NOW YOU SHORT HAIRED DEMON OF LUST!" Ritsuko
screamed, and a whole lot of naughtiness started to the accompaniment of
the throbbing beat of another, less well-known movie of the 1970s.

YES!

	"-- or possibly Go ... it's hard to say.  It's bound to be
something intellectual and -- Maya?  Maya, are you listening to me
lecture?" Ritsuko asked, staring at her protege's dazed eyes.

	"Huh?" Maya asked, as she was jolted out of her fantasy.  <Dammit
dammit dammit!> she raged inwardly, giving off as much angst as ... well,
as one of the Children on a "good" day.

NOOOOOOOOOOO!

Damn you Davies!  AAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!


                              Shito Yatsura:
                          Those Obnoxious Angels

                      "Suki yo!  Suki yo!  Suki yo!"
                                  meets
                            "Sucks to be you!"

See what I mean about getting away with damn near anything
in a fusion?
