I apologize for this reply taking so long. I always try to reply ASAP and 

I've been kinda busy. Thanks for reading and responding.

 How that is supposed to help escapes me.  

 



Hmm, I thought it made sense when I wrote it... I still think it does. But 

maybe I should rewrite this part a bit...

Really? Okay. Er, yeah that is right...

 Oi!  Who gave Nabiki the personality transplant?  



::Gets really bad feeling...::



 

 It's not that I can't buy the idea of Nabiki falling in love with Ranma (

although

 two short chapters into the story seems a trifle abrupt), but confessing 

she 

loves

 him without having any idea how Ranma feels about her?  Has she no sense 

of 

 self-protection or understanding of how Ranma's psychology works?  Has she 

no pride?



Oohhh... Damn, damn, damn, damn... ::Cringes::



 Has she been taking stupid pills?  It is hard for me to imagine how you 

can 

get from

 this point to one where they believably live (more or less) happily ever 

after because

 Nabiki just handed all the power in their relationship to Ranma.  She's 

made 

herself

 look pathetic, and that will inspire pity, not love.

 



And this part (and more then likely the entire series... again...) will 

obviously need a large rewrite... ::Hangs head:: Gah... Thank you extremely 

much for tearing this apart. I can see now it really needed it.
