"Why do *I* own a swimming costume?"

"You want to go to the beach don't you?"

"I'm a guy! I shouldn't need one of these!"

"But you have this curse."

"Yes. I have this curse. Why me?"

"Because you fell into that pool at Jusenkyou."

"Yes, I did all into a pool. We both know that was oyaji's fault."

"It was?"

"Well, maybe I could have been more... Dammit, this is leading me
nowhere!"

"Hey, what are you complaining about? Most guys would be jealous of you,
being so close to a girl's swimming cozzie."

"Yeah, my very *own* swimming costume. Really funny."

"Unless you want to go to a topless beach of course..."

"Echhi! Where'd you get that idea from? Forget it, I don't think I want
to know."

"You know perfectly well where you got that idea from. Admit it to
yourself. Your body turns yourself on. You flaunt yourself when..."

"I do not!"

"Oh no? And how many times have you thrown yourself at Ryouga?"

"That was only teasing!"

"You mean you wouldn't have done that if you weren't cursed?"

"Of course not!"

"Of course not."

"..."

"..."

"You're grinning at something."

"You."

"Oh. Be grateful you're just a voice inside my head, else I'd send you
into orbit."


"Ranma! Aren't you dressed yet?"

"Almost. These swimming costumes are a pain to get into."

"Sheesh, anyone would think you really are a girl, the amount of time
you take to get dressed. Come on, hurry up or we'll miss the train to
Chiba."

"Hey, at least I *can* be mistaken for a girl, unlike someone I know!"

*POW*

"What was that about sending me into orbit? You did a pretty good job by
yourself."

"Shut up."

"And, I do believe you were boasting about your 'femininity' too, no?"

"Shut up."

"Face it, you want rid of this curse, you just aren't all that bothered
which way you get locked."

"Shut up. We're coming in to land, so unless you want a bad landing, I
suggest you let me concentrate."

*SPLASH*

"Oh look, we're at Chiba. Wasn't that nice? That girl of yours has a
good aim."
