The characters of Ranma 1/2(Ranma, Ukyo, Shampoo, Mousse, Cologne,
Akane, Nabiki, Kasumi, Genma, and others I didn't use) are owned by
Rumiko Takahashi and those she licensed them to, including, but not
limited to, Shogakukan and Viz. The events and persons in this fanfic
are completely fictional(oh, PLEASE let them be fictional.. ) and any
resemblance to actual events or persons is completely unintentional,
and the author is not responsibile for any injury, trauma, or other
detrimental condition resulting from proper or improper use of this
fan fiction; if you read the whole thing and get mad and blame me,
you should have stopped sooner and repeated to yourself, "It's just
a fic, I should really just relax."  Sorry 'bout that, but with this
sort of thing one HAS to be careful...

[Author's notes]

Everybody's OOC, the grammar is atrocious, there wasn't even
a THOUGHT of running a spell check, I've got commas adjacent to
everything, the plot development was negative, the whole fic was
stupid, had lame dialogue, "fight scenes" of pointlessness, stilted
attempts at humor(if you can even call them that), Akane is bashed
beyond reason, Ukyo is unstoppable, and the entire fanfic is
nothing but an exercise in SHEER, UNADULTERATED IDIOCY!!!

Bwaha! Bwahahaha! Now that you seemed to have gotten the Anything Goes Toe
Stomping out of your system, perhaps you'll see fit to do some real writing?
You know, this piece has the potential to be a laugh riot, but then you'd
need to be serious about re-writing it, wouldn't you? Plus, maybe you would
need to grit your teeth and keep right on ignoring a few cherished rules.
Rules are a good thing up to a point, but they can also be stifling and
hamper creativity. This piece was nice and loose and a lot of it worked
despite your intentions to the contrary. I laughed out loud at some of it,
even when it made me wince. On the whole, it is a very nice piece of satire.
It's pity you did not take the work seriously.
