You know, with a bit of work this could become the 'Waiting for Minako' of
Ranma fics.

Naw, that would be more like this:


[Ryouga and Mousse are standing in an empty lot.]

Mousse: He's late.

Ryouga: Yes.

Mousse: He's very late.

Ryouga: Yes.  He's very late.

Mousse: ...

Ryouga: ...

Mousse: ...

Ryouga: ...

Mousse: ...

Ryouga: Maybe he forgot?

Mousse: That would be just like Saotome.  Claiming to forget a fight
        that we challenged him to.

Ryouga: Yeah, he'd probably try to blame it all on his father.

Mousse: Hmph!  The coward.

Ryouga: ...

Mousse: ...

Ryouga: ...

Mousse: ...

Ryouga: ...

Mousse: He's late.

Ryouga: Yes, he is.

Mousse: He's very late.

Ryouga: Yes.  He's very, very late.


Will Ranma ever show up?  Will it rain before he gets there?  Has he
really forgotten about the fight?  Will the bean dip that Ryouga's been
carrying reach critical mass?  What's all this about licorice
jellybeans, anyway?  For subliminal answers to these questions, read the
next "Waiting for Ranma."
