				Ryoko's Choice	
.

Author's notes: I think the seeds of this came partially from something
Lara Bartram once said on IRC many months ago which stuck in my mind,
and a challenge on the list more recently to write a story where
Ayeka got Tenchi. Well, the latter didn't happen here, but then again
such a possibility hasn't been discounted.

I loved this little piece. I find that in the Tenchi series, Ryouko gets
marginalized too much (in fact, all the time).

She is constantly dumped on even when she isn't responsible (I'm not
talking Tenchi TV. In that one Ryouko is a twit... like the rest of the cast).

Although you say that Aeka might get Tenchi, I doubt it. If Tenchi hasn't
shown any interest in any of the women by now, none of them will get him.
>From what I've seen, ALL of the women scare him, not a good basis to start
a relationship.

Anyway, if someone were bold, they could take this fic and make it a
launch-point for a mini-series based on Ryouko's adventures. She'll finally
get to explore TRUE freedom with all the happiness and pain that comes with
making your own choices.

Besides, somewhere along the line, she's going to figure out that she can
create the Radiant Hawk Wings too. That ought to make for an interesting
story on it's own. <Evil giggle>

Enough of my blabbering. I liked the story.

See ya
