I'm sorry, Garry.  I meant to send this to the FFML all along, but I forgot
that the reply was directed to you alone.  Gomen nasai!

 This is easy to do.
 
 Consider an alternate universe where Mr. Kuonji had a son. Desperately
 wanting a girl instead, and not being the stable type, he convinced
 himself that little Ukyo *was* female, and raised him to believe it.>>

Change the Okonimiyaki-yatai to the Hamajaya and you have the Fujinami family
from Urusei Yatsura. 

<< Then along come Genma and Ranma. Ranma and Ukyo become friends, and
 their fathers make an engagement deal. All's well until Genma peeks
 under Ukyo's clothes. Oops. Not knowing what else to do, he leaves Ukyo
 by the side of the road and runs off with Ranma and the okonomiyaki
 cart.>>

Just like Genma. ^_-
 
 <<Ukyo grows up an orphan, puzzled by all these people who insist that
 he's a male. He comes to the conclusion that it's Ranma and Genma's
 fault, and decides to humor people by dressing up like a boy until he
 can get his revenge....>>

Typical Ranma 1/2 plot hereafter.  But the humor value could be great.
Ryuunosuke vs. Ranma?  I like it!  (Now can we turn Tsubasa into Nagisa? ^_-
heh heh.)
 
 Is that a Hitomi-esque plot or what? :-) I don't have time to write it,
 though. Any takers?

Personally I'm not ready to take on any fanfics yet.  But I'm willing to
volunteer to preread this if anyone wants to write it.  Even if you do it,
Ucchan.  ^_-
