Urk!!  *cringe*  That was sick.

^_^

*reads Nabiki and Kodachi pairing*

Hmm, much more believable, IMO.  Kodachi's insanity hides her true
sophistication.  Understandable and even convincing, but why hide it at
all?  To deter money-hungry suitors?  Might be a bit extreme and is still
puzzling, but I guess it's another acceptable idea.

Kodachi is still... eccentric in this; it's just of a somewhat different
sort. She does the Black Rose routine partly for the reasons you say,
but mostly because she is amused by the effect it has on people. It's
much the same as with her father's Hawaiian stuff.

*reads Kasumi and Kunou pairing*

Even more believable.  I can see Kasumi falling for a traditional,
honorable samurai (well, samurai-aspirant) who comes from an influential
family.  OTOH, Kasumi is a perfect wife.  She's dutiful, already a
housewife, and more than anything else, she's a kind soul with enough
love for everyone else (hehe, again, my fanfic-based biases come out).

Hey, that's OK, I agree with you.

*reads Kouchou (sp?) and Nodoka pairing*
*reads Kouchou and Nodoka pairing again*
*reads Kouchou and Nodoka pairing AGAIN*

<facefault>  Nani yo?!?!  Man, you ARE evil.  *wicked grin*  Although it

WAHAHAHAHA!!!

is funny.  Anyway, I have a hard time finding your reasoning behind this
pairing.  I mean, sure, Nodoka is starving for attention, but why would
she turn to Kouchou?  He don't be seemin' like an affectionate or caring
lil' wahini, eh?  (*groan*  I knew my dad never should have tried
teaching me Hawaiian pidgeon).

Probably not; I'm pretty sure wahine means a woman. :) But anyway, in
this story Nodoka is not so much in it for attention as she is for fun
and a way to let go of her rigidness once in a while.

*reads Ukyou and Gosunkugi pairing*  <FUMES WITH RAGE>

ARGH!!!!!  You liked that, didn't you, Gary?  *mutters under his breath* 

Yep! Cute couple, aren't they?

Always gotta pick on poor Ukyou.  *grumble*  Fine, fine.  I agree that

Yeah, poor Ukyo, always getting picked on...

it's understandable given that Ukyou's female persona was starving for
attention, and had it really been Gosunkugi who found out she was a girl
first, she'd have focused her affections on him, rather than Ranma. 
Bleh, onto the next one.  You've thouroughly disgusted me with this one. 
I'm gonna have nightmares now.

Aha! The fic was a success! :-)

*reads Shampoo and Ranma pairing*

Hmm, I've got mixed feelings about this one.  Is Ranma really someone who
would casually sleep around at age 16?

Well, this version of him is. The canonical one probably isn't.

 And would Shampoo, an Amazon,
agree to do so if she weren't married or wasn't sure she had complete
control over him?

Sure looks to me like she would've agreed to do it with him anytime
during the original series.

 The reasons why he's not going to run away is good, if
not overly used.

Yeah, this is my sort of backlash against stories where Ranma dumps
Genma at the drop of a hat. While there's a lot he doesn't like about
Genma, I do believe Ranma's family loyalty is stronger than that.

 Also, if he's so worried about maintaining his honor,
why would he have slept with Shampoo without marrying her first?

What he's worried about maintaining is his connection to the only family
he has. Besides, he and Shamps were planning to marry when Ranma
returned to her village.

Anyway, other morbidly hilarious piece that is definitely Kleppe-esqe. 
Keep 'em rollin'.....

Will do my best! Thanks for your comments!
