Kasumi stared at a small clump of rice pinned between her chopsticks.
Since her mother's death, she had been likewise trapped. Forced to
become a mother at nine, so her sisters could grow up. But... none of
them had really turned out the way they could have. Akane gave in to
her anger, to cope with her loss. It seemed like Nabiki had become
largely self-centered. No... that wasn't right. Kasumi knew the
household finances and recognized her sister's contribution. And
Kasumi herself...
You know other than Gregg Sharp, I don't think I have seen any
stories, on the list, that use an INTACT Tendo family. I have seen a
couple, where Soun dies and one or two where he remarries or she does.
I have seen one fic ( also by Gregg Sharp ) where Kasumi's mom ( and
Shampoo's and Ukyo's ) got restored to life.
How about an expansion of that one Gregg?
The crone hopped to the door using her staff with speed that surprised
Neptune. "Pleased to meet you. I am Elder Cologne of the Joketsuzoku
Amazons."
If she and Ranma go to work on the Sailors, they will be doing
wonders. Stuff they never did in the show. Can't anyone picture Usagi
doing a Hiryu Shoten Ha or a splitting Cat Hairs ( and the look on
Luna's face when she hears the name!)
"Someday, I'll have my revenge on you, I swear!" Kikuko's assailant
Why does she want to have revenge on Kikuko? Ranma, I could see but
Kikuko?
Ukyo seems a little more out of it here, than usual.

"I guess I'm just an old-fashioned sentimentalist at heart. I refuse
to accept a no-win scenario. I hate the thought of a universe
without
justice. If the maneuverings of dark powers can't be exposed and
defeated by the pure of heart, then there's no point in anything. I
can't believe that."
