This came into being while sitting staring at a blank page trying to
come
up with the next part to Shadowstryker's Journeys, this is my first
songfic and it probable sucks, but tell me what you think.

Alanis Morissette wrote and performed Head over Feet, I in no
way make claim to it. Rumiko Takahashi owns Ranma 1/2, again, I
make no claim to them.
Head over Feet
I had no choice but to hear you
You stated your case time and again
I thought about it
{See a collage of shots with Ranma trying to
say 'I'm sorry' with Akane standing over him with a
mallet.}
You treat me like I'm a princess
I'm not used to liking that
You ask how my day was
{See Ranma breaking Akane's and his fall during the
Martial Arts Skating tournament, and Ranma
fitting Saffron to save Akane.}
(chorus)
You've already won me over in spite of me
Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are
I couldn't help it
It's all your fault
{See Akane fall while lethargically stumbling upstairs, only
to have Ranma catch her before shehit the ground. He
smiles at her, and they're eyes are drawn to each others.
A glass of water that Akane had been carrying chose that
moment to fall out of her hands and splash onto Ranma. The
change took hold but Akane's eyes never waver or falter.}
Your love is thick and it swallowed me whole
You're so much braver than I gave you credit for
That's not lip service
{See Ranma fighting the Yamata no Orchi as a female,
and barely evading being eaten.}
(repeat chorus)
You are the bearer of unconditional things
You held your breath and the door for me
Thanks for your patience
{See Ranma flip the cure for the super Sobas to Akane, see
Ranma head down, face red, hold the front door open for Akane.}
You're the best listener that I've ever met
You're my best friend
Best friend with benefits
What took me so long
{See Akane rant at Ranma while unconscious form a
mallet blow. See a collage of shots of Ranma saving
and rescuing Akane. See the Romeo and Juliet kissing
scene, then fade to Akane sitting alone on her bed, holding
the picture frame that Ranma gave hear; a sad, thoughtful look on
her face.}
I've never felt this healthy before
I've never wanted something rational
I am aware now
I am aware now
{See Ranma and Akane standing at an altar, both _very_ nervous
as they exchange their vows, cut to a scene of Akane and
Onna-Ranma kissing, then fade to a middle-age Akane sitting on
a couch and going through a photo album with a middle-age Ranma,
both smiling as they saw picture after picture of their school days.}
(repeat chorus)
