Heh!
So be it, he thought. A fey mood was upon him, and
the idea of simply fighting it out to the death had a strange
appeal.
Interesting wording choice. Fey?
A mood of welcoming death.
"Won't matter when you're dead." He tossed Uranus
aside once she went limp; she wouldn't recover fast enough
to matter, and he wanted captives, not corpses.
Out of curiosity, why? Was there something in an earlier chapter
that I'd forgotten? Didn't the Queen just complain about his getting
twarted by the Senshi? I could understand Endy, but not the rest.
Because the Queen has ways to bring captives under her control, but not
dead folk. She isn't mad because they're alive, but because they beat
him.
Then he threw four roses at once, striking her winds,
which evaporated. Nor could she call them back. Her jaw
dropped, then Kunou was on her. "Head!" He struck her
head. "Shoulder!" He nearly dislocated her left arm.
"Chest!" Her sternum ached from the blow.
I understand that this is a part of kendo. However, Kuno doesn't shout
out his targets in the actual series, so why is he doing it now? There is

"GROIN!" she shouted and kicked him in the balls. His
eyes went wide, and he staggered back, bending over.
"FACE!" She kicked him in the face, knocking him back.

Kendo. He also fences, so when he first faced off against his oppoenent,
he shouted FINGERS and lunged.
Heh.
yourself. Publicly, I will announce you have been sentenced
to Eternal Sleep. But privately, you will take on a new
identity. I will give you to Nephrite as an assistant. You will
spy on those who serve him, and if he begins to fail as you
did, hopefully, you will catch the traitor. You will report your
findings to me periodically. Do you understand?"
...
You know, that actually made sense.
Still, I have to wonder how Nephrite is going to not know a guy that he's
known for a thousand years.
That's what disguises are for.
"Did you do it?"
"No!"
Kenji-neko looked at him dubiously. "Are you gay?"
"NO!!!!"
Ha!
Hehe.
"Kissing is wierd?"
"When everyone is staring at you and there's people
who'll beat you and me for doing it, yeah."
You mean "her and me", don't you? Or is someone going to smack Kenji
around if Usagi kisses Ranma?
Doh. I goobered.
"I don't like hate her, but if any of what I feel is me and
not him, I can't tell.
I recommend that you take out the 'like'
Good idea.
"Rhea and Tethys for us."
I'm tempted to make a Mike Rhea comment here, but I won't.
That was most certainly NOT the idea.
