Are there any Ranma/Robotech xovers or fusions out there?  If there
aren't I'm going to try to write one.

Go for it!  I know of at least one spamfic with Ranma and
Robotech...because I wrote it in response to Ucchan's ideas on Martial
Arts Musicians.

The Spring of Drowned Carl


On that fateful trip...

"Pop!  What happened to you?"

*THWACK* *Splash!*

"Ah, sir!  You have just fallen into the CarlMaceknichuan, tragic story of
man I drown yesterday. Now, whoever falls into pool takes on form of
random dubbed character..."

Ryouga stared in disbelief as a black and white blur zoomed past him,
kicking up huge billowing dust clouds.  Turning torwards the valley of
springs, he saw a rather brainless girl chasing after it.

"Come on, Mr. 'Pop'.  I didn't mean to knock you into that spring.  We can
still be friends, right?  Hmmm...How do I make up?  I know!  I'll sing you
another song!"

/o~ My boyfriend's a Pilot... ~o/

[I'm sorry son!  I truly am!  I'll do anything, but please stop
singing...]

"ARRRGGGHHH!"  I have to escape!  But where?  I know. I'll jump into that
spring over there, and hope that it muffles the noise.

*Splash!*

The sardines weren't worth the trouble.  A few more shots, then 
Ryoga-san would overheat and explode.  Ducking around a corner, 
I managed to lose him as I entered the ramshackle residence of 
my Anime supplier.

One look at his face and I knew that I was betrayed.  "Tell me."
I insisted.  He refused, so I slammed him against the wall.
"Last chance.  Where can Ranma-Ranma find good fanfics?"
"Try Jason Liao." he whispered, before he slumped to the floor.
I heard the sounds of a door splintering as I left through the 
window, one step ahead of Tendo Heavy Industries...
