"I wish I could marry the man of my dreams," Ukyo
breathed, looking starry-eyed at Ranma.
"Wish granted." *poof*
Ukyo grinned. "I don't want to waste any time."
"Neither do I," a voice answered from behind her.
Ukyo faltered, then looked back. And forth. And
back. Two Ranmas.
The Ranma in front of her palmed his face. "Geez,
Ucchan. I *told* you I wanted to be your friend, not
your fiancee."
@@UKYOU:<Straddles naked Ranma tied to griddle> "I can
be VERY friendly. Have some �secret sauce'.

"So, Panda."

Genma wondered, some days, what business he had still
being alive. He
had nothing to live for.

your beer ration, then back to recreating your
species."

"Don't worry, mama." Chibi-Usa smiled despite her
tears. "You'll pull through this. You always do."
She tugged at the corners of Serenity's mouth, forcing
it into a smile, and stared into the blank
eyes of the head cradled in her lap. "Come on, mama,
you can say it. 'Moon Healing Escalation'. Just say
it, and everything'll be better."
None of the other Sailors gathered around had the
heart to point out that the head was no longer
connected to anything, and indeed was the only piece
of Serenity's body of significant size that remained
intact.
Nor did any of them show any confusion about why
Crystal Tokyo, still quite a few years in their future
except that they had time travelled again on another
quest, was now fading away around them, leaving only
dead, blasted wastelands as far as the eye could see.
@@MINAKO:<Sobbing> "I can't believe she's dead. And
only this morning we were making plans to go to the
big shoe sale at the mall."
@@USAGI: <blasted, burnt and scattered atoms instantly
reconstituting under the primordial force that brought
the universe into being.> "SHOE SALE!!!" <I shop,
therefore I am.>

been replaced with �Mall of America'?"

I grew up with Yosho. I dreamed of him as my lover.
But he grew old, and would not have me.
Along the way I met his grandson, Tenchi. I dreamed
of him as my lover. But he chose another.
Along the way I met again my rival, Ryoko, and
consoled her after Tenchi also rejected her. I
dreamed of her as my lover. But she ran away.
Now I dream of sweet, hot, fiery death. Jurai's sun
shall be my lover, my treeship our flimsy condom. You
should find this note just as it begins to break,
sister. Farewell.
@@I dreamed of the sun as my lover, but there was
solar flare that threw me into an alternate universe.
The universe of the Overfiend, filled with horrible
tentacled monsters with a fiery, unslakable lust for
inflicting their depraved, deviant sexual desires on
my virgin flesh.

Theory AB324890 popped into existence in Washu's
brain. Where it came from was still only partially
understood, but she had set up almost an assembly line
for everything thereafter. First, theoretical
spotlight: did it contradict the most relevant
physical laws? Not that such would totally disqualify
it...but this one passed that test. Next, practical
analysis: how to test? Fortunately, this was easily
verifiable, though it could not be proven or refuted
just from tests she had already run. A quick
programming session on her computer, and the
experiment played out. Conclusion: theory disproven.
Especially rigorous was the dissection to see what, if
anything, could be salvaged, then it was tossed on her
memetic garbage pile to be vaporized by being
forgotten.
