Hm. Just a thought, but... I hope we're going to see what happens
too *Ranma* after this, not just Ataru?

Oh, certainly.  This wouldn't be anywhere near as fun if I didn't
include something about Ranma's trials and tribulations. 

"Ranma-chan, are you asleep?" his mother asked, opening the door.

Um. Is she really calling him "Ranma-chan" at all times? I don't know,
it just doesn't seem right to me. Then again, I think we've had
disagreements over that before, when you had Nodoka doing it...

It's just me, I guess.  I don't really give it much thought one way or
the other when I write it.  It just sounds natural to me.

"Um, nothing, nothing!" Ranma quickly replied.  "I just meant it'd be a
shame if a cute girl like you got hurt or something!"

Oooooops. Poor, stupid Ranma. ^_^

Indeed.  Ranma Saotome:  Master of the not-so-well turned phrase.

"Er, sure, let's go," Ranma replied.  He didn't her the soft gasp behind
him, or the quickly disappearing footfalls as Akane ran away, tears of
betrayal blinding her eyes.

No! No! nooo!

('course, who am I to talk, after what I just wrote ... but...)

Hey, timing is everything! ^_^

Special thanks go to Fred Herriot and the TSY crew, believe it or not,
their fic inspired me to write this one.  I sat down one week and read
the 50 core chapters.  *_*  You got to respect authors who are obviously
having fun.  That's my motivation too.

You just gotta respect someone who actually has the energy and
determination needed to actually read *ALL* of TSY, and that just
in a single week. ^_^

I was bored and had writers' block.  

Juxtaposition chapter 4: Being written; about 30% done.

What can I say? Want more, NOW!

I loved it. Highly amusing.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

Just as long as you make sure to get Ranma back with Akane where he
belongs in the end. :P

Awww, I'm not done torturing the characters yet!  Besides, don't Ataru
and Akane look soooo good together?  

*Ducks the stones, mallets, tables, and ICBMs thrown in this direction.*

Later!
