Regrowing your fingers?  (just a guess - like I have room to talk)

Disclaimer at end. In addition, no gerbils have been harmed in
the writing of this fanfic, except for 'Pierre' and 'Gwendolyn'
and 'Murgatroyd', who disappeared following a visit by Azusa and
have not been seen since.

Lack of exercise will do that to you. Sunflower and Butterscotch 
could outrun any cat they came across.

                           Chapter Fourteen

                        Words That Make a Woman



   Threads you've chosen from the skein
   Weave a pattern in between
   The shuttle dances end to end
   Chapter Fourteen's set to spin.

I'd make some comment like "so is my stomach," but the rhyme wasn't 
that bad. :)

HEAVEN WON'T BE HEAVEN WITHOUT YOU:

They entered like two battlers in the showdown of a grade 'B'
movie, from opposite ends of the public refreshment facility.

I like this imagery. Good hook.
 
Slowly they stalked towards each other, their faces a mask of
concentration.  As they moved, they divested themselves of any
encumbrances that might get in the way when they went into
action.  At last they were face to face.

The smaller of the two frowned furiously.  She turned aside and
stepped off the stone ledge, growling, "That Loki made it sound
like a game, and now everything is going wrong!  I got wished
into the badlands, out past the yonder pits, and had to climb
out.  Then I got splashed with some noxious goop that screwed up
my appearance.  I was an old hag, then I started getting younger.
Now look at me!  If I hadn't washed it off, I'd be in diapers!"
A very youthful Marlar slipped into the water.  She submerged her

I'm sure you've heard this before, but it's either Mara or Marller.

The Norn of the Past was too occupied with other things to
notice.  "Maybe it's about time I checked that temp's
background," Urd said to herself as she left the bathhouse.

What, and spoil the fun?

"I'd like a little word on what I'm doing," Urd began,
intimidated in spite of herself.  She did not enjoy being
intimidated.  Since Peorth had taken on a position near the main
control, she had become...obsessive.  More so than usual.

Heaven help us all.


"I'll have to think about it,"  Nabiki rose from the elegant
chair with the price-label dangling and pushed the pen away from
her as it were made of gold.  Solid, heavy gold.  With diamonds
embedded, in the kanji for Tendo, Nabiki.


Poor Nabiki, scarred for life.

END:  CHAPTER FOURTEEN

I usually hate Ranma/AMG crossovers, especially the alt ones, but 
I like this series. I have for a while, actually. Maybe it's the 
focus on Ryoga, maybe it's the comedy. Whatever it is, it works. 

I'm looking forward to the next chapter.
