*** BTW, I know Ranma's flashback is too detailed (how could he have know
what Akane was doing?) but like I said, this is a *sloppy* teaser of what I
could do if I put my mind to it.
Yeah, I was starting to think... (starting to think? Wow!)
Stop the press!!! ;)
- Could Ryoga ever finish a game of Maiden's Kiss without bleeding himself
out (whether from the nose or from the neck)?
Nah.
- Would Mat try to put the moves on Onna-Ranma?
Yes, and then find out he's a guy.
Of course...
- Would Mat's luck protect him from her wrath?
Hmm... no. His luck has never helped him with women before. ^_^
- Can Mat's fox medallion counter chi?
Nah.
Creative license... What a marvelous concept!
- How did the Nerimians end up in Randland in the first place?
Heh, you tell me.
Perhaps I will if I feel foolish enough to write the thing.
- How did Happosai manage to fix the Nanban Mirror?
Supa guru! ^_^;
- Would it really that important to the story?
Not unless he's part of the plot.
- Why don't I have a more original plot device?
Because this was a quick teaser? Because nothing's original because
everyone on the FFML has probably already thought it up? We're all
psychic?
The last one has some merit...
- Where could Ryoga's anti-directional sense possibly lead him?
Tel'aran'rihod? Shayol Ghul? An Aiel sweat tent? Rhuidean? The Court of
the Nine Moons in Seanchan (okay, so I'd have to wing that one...)? The
Tower of Ravens? The Amyrlin's private quarters? Endless possibilities!
Yay! All of them!
---
WHO ARE YOU?
"Eh? I'm Ryouga Hibiki."
HOW DID YOU GET HERE?
"Who are you? Why's everything so dark?"
---
ROTFLOL!
- How long 'till the Aes Sedai figure out Ranma's gender curse?
Very long, I hope. Of course, you'll have to drop that water
thing from the end of the teaser.
Of course! That tteaser I posted is *very* flexible!
- How many Warders could Ranma take on at once?
Don't know. Depends. Three?
Ah! A more conservative estimate than the others I read!
- What happens if you mix Ranma, cats, Aes Sedai, Asha'man, cannon
fod<AHEM> people and *no* Akane? Dumai's Well revisited!
Hey, you answered the question!
So I did...
- What happens when Nerimian super martial artists encounters one or more
Ta'veren(s)?
The Nerimians are probably Ta'veren themselves.
- WHERE ON EARTH <ahem> IN RANDLAND AM I NOW?!!! (Quote - Ryoga)
Probably Graendal's bedchamber, sonny.
Ooohh... I'll have to remember that one...
- How many Aiel can Ranma take on at once?
With or without weapons?
Someone who thinks of the factors!
- Should I have written this bloody thing in the first place?
Yes! All together now.... YES!!!
<whimpers> I'm gonna get killed my my LoD pre-readers (again)...
- What happens if you hit a Portal stone with a stray Hiryuu Kourin Dan?
(Assuming there *is* such a thing as a stray Hiryuu Kourin Dan in the first
place...)
It won't move?
That's a possibility, yes.
- Would angreals and sa'angreals work with chi?
I'd be cool. Hmm. Chi is the inner energy of a person,
right? Let's say Ranma's chi is like pure Saidin. That'd
be fun.
Male chi, untainted Saidin... Mmmhh...
- How long until Ranma calls Min "Ucchan" by mistake?
Give it a minute.
- How would Rand react to that?
Would he know what 'chan' meant?
- How much would Perrin (in regard to his wolf complexion) freak if he saw
Ryoga's fangs?
"Light! Is that gonna happen to me?"
"And I thought them calling me 'Goldeneyes' was bad..."
- How does a macho *male* martial artist survive in the White Tower?
Turn into a girl?
Heh!
- How long 'till Nyneave tries to balefire Ranma?
Five seconds.
- How long 'till Akane tries to balefire Ranma?
A couple of years. No way she'll learn the technique that
fast, she's not that apt. Besides, if you decide to make chi
like the Power, Ranma can finally stop Akane from hitting him
without force. I'm pretty sure Ranma would be quick in learning
the Power if he thought of it as part of Martial Arts.
Akane quickly learns new and inventive ways to bash Ranma. Who says she
won't learn to do balefire as fast as Nynaeve?
- How long 'till Moiraine loses her temper and tries to balefire Ranma?
Isn't she dead, or missing? (Couple days.)
<Ahem!> Nothing says I can't bring them earlier in the timeline, say
Eye of the World and let them have fun starting there...
- How long 'till the Amyrlin loses her temper and tries to balefire Ranma?
Which one? ^_^
Any one of them?
- Would Ranma stand in place long enough to be balefired in the first
place?
No.
- Would Onna-Ranma purposely flunk her tests to get out of the Tower? You
bet! Would the Aes Sedai let her? No way! ;)
Again, you answered your own question!
<grovel> I'm sorry Master!
- Who's the strongest (and most dangerous, for that matter)? A pissed-off
Nyneave or a pissed-off Akane?
Before or after 'A Crown of Swords'?
Depends on when I'd bring the Nerima crew in, I guess.
- Showing a Jusenkyo curse to a Brown Sister is a Bad Idea.
- Showing a Jusenkyo curse to a White Sister is a Bad Idea.
- Showing a Jusenkyo curse to a Red Sister is a Bad Idea.
- Showing a Jusenkyo curse to a Black Sister is a Bad Idea.
- Showing a Jusenkyo curse to ANY friggin' Sister is a Bad Idea.
- Showing a Jusenkyo curse to a Whitecloak is a Very Bad Idea.
Agree to all of the above.
- Who's the toughest: Sephiroth or Gumby? (Oops! Wrong series...)
God, you must be out of it. GUMBY!!! (No, it's Sephiroth. He's way
cool.)
- Will I ever stop with these stupid questions?
Hopefully, I want to send this E-mail within the next year.
- Do you really *want* me to stop? (please say yes, I can't take much more
of this!!!)
Already answered.
- Will Kasumi ever marry Doctor Tofu?
I don't know, maybe after she's done with her obligations at
home.
- Would Lanfear leave Rand and end up as another of Ranma's fiancees?
How many of the books have you read?
Nothing says I can't bring them earlier in the timeline, say Eye of the
World and let them have fun starting there...
- How much would Rand pay for that to happen?
"Wanna be the Dragon too?"
"I don't wanna be a Dragon, I just wanna learn Dragon Techniques"
- Shouting 'Rising *Dragon* Punch' in front of Aes Sedai (particularly the
Red ones) is a Very Bad Idea.
Is Japanese in any way like the Old Tounge? Heh, heh.
I thought about that... That would mean that Mat would know Japanese
- Will Ranma ever find out why people ran away screaming their lungs out
the first time he used a Mouko Takabisha as a guy?
He's too dense.
"AHHHHHHHH!!! The Dragon! The Dragon!"
Hmm... evil idea forming.
Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
- Will Ranma ever find out why people started calling him 'Aes Sedai' the
first time he used a Mouko Takabisha as a girl?
"Please don't kill me, Mistress Aes Sedai."
"Call me Ranma. I'm a GUY. Sir! Anything but Mistress!"
"Eh...? Um.. okay, Master Ranma Aes Sedai, Sir."
ROFL!
- Will Ranma ever find out why people ran away screaming 'Aiel' the first
time he killed a Trolloc with some martial arts moves?
Probably think it was the Trolloc that scared em away.
- Does Ranma even *care* to find out those things?
No.
- Will Ryoga ever find out those Red Sisters have been trying to kill him
since the day he dug his way up from undergroud into the White Tower by
using the Bakusai Tenketsu?
Not unless he sits at a bar, lost and depressed, and talks to Mat.
Heh!
- How long 'till the Aes Sedai figure out the difference between chi and
the One Power?
How about that there is no difference, and that's why they
sensed it in Akane the way they did? Ranma won't die of not
knowing the power because he can use it already. Ryouga too.
- Sacry Concept: Akane as the Amyrlin.
Sacry, as in Sacrifice? ^_^ It'll never happen, she's too
emotional. "Jerk!" [Thwak!]
Sadly true...
- Very Scary Concept: Remember how they pick Mord-Sith? Now imagine
Kasumi as a Mord-Sith - (Damn! wrong series again!)
Umm... no comment. Too scary.
The sweetest make the best, they say...
- Ultimate Forbidden-By-The-Great-Kami Concept: Kasumi as a damane. (I
shudder to think of it)
Horrible thought: Kasumi as a 'Leash holder'
Even more evil Horrible Thought (tm): Kasumi as the Dark One
"I thought the Dark One was a guy."
"Did *you* ever see the Dark One?"
"No."
"Well, there you go."
...Whoa...
- Big Damage Concept: A One Power-ed version of the Hiryuu Kourin Dan
with the super sa'angreal statue from Cairhien. (Breaking, Hiroshima,
Nagasaki, eat your heart out...)
Well, that answers the question about Chi and Saidin.
- Who's the toughest: Ryoga or a Gholam? (Think about it...)
Gollum? Whoops! Wrong series!
This ain't to Tolkien!
- Will Jeremy ever continue Ta'varen 1/2 so I won't feel Compelled to
write this? (Moghedien, Liandrin, stop that!)
HEY! Wait, I'm not the Jeremy doing THAT Ranma/WoT X-over...
Of course not. I'm waiting on Blackman!
- Will the Aes Sedai ever get Ranma in a Novice dress?
No. God forbid.
- How long would Happosai survive if he groped an Aes Sedai?
He'd sure get a lot of energy to hold them awhile longer.
Hold them off? Hold them? Wonder what I mean by that.
- How long would Happosai survive if he groped an Aiel Wise One?
I don't wish to see the carnage, Thank-You-Very-Much.
- How long would Happosai survive if he groped the Amyrlin?
Which one?
ANY one...
- How long could Ryoga keep his curse a secret?
Very long time.
- How can a piglet find hot water in Randland? (Answer in the next
sentence)
Aww.
- A small, black piglet that can channel is a Very Cute, Yet Very
Dangerous Thing.
So true.
"Why's that pig glowing?"
Guyver P-Chan, eat your heart out!
- Will Biles ever finish Parallel Lives so my soul can rest in piece and
not RIP the offending author into shreds? (puns are fun!)
Heh, RIP. Let's all beat up Biles.
- Take 1 part depression, 1 part Dark One's Taint and mix. Result? The
New and Improved Shishi Hokodan!
DO YOU WISH TO JOIN THE CHOSEN?
"Take Aginor's place? Sure, if it means destroying Ranma."
The scary thing is that it's very probable!
- Take 1 Interdimensional All-Purpose Happy Baka Smasher Mallet, mix with
Air weave. Result? A mallet that can clock people (preferrably Ranma)
from afar!
Why bother with the mallet? Why waste the power?
- Take 1 Jusenkyo/Nyannichuan curse, add 1 a'dam. Result? I haven't got
the faintest idea, but it has *got* to give a sul'dam headaches, that's for
sure...
"But she's a girl..." <Faint>
ROFL!!!
- Take Ranma and Loial and team them up for 24 hours. Result? An Ogier
who decides that the Stedding might not be such a bad place after all.
You answered again.
I'll try to stop myself next time
- Grudge Match of the Age: The Nerima Wrecking Crew vs. The Forsaken!
GooooOOOO Wreaking Crew!
- Will someone stop me from writing more of this? PLEEEAAAASE!
Sorry. The end draws near.
- How long 'till a Green Sister tries to bond Ranma or Ryoga without their
consent?
Make it Myrelle. ^_^
You know, she makes Ranma look chaste with the number of warders she has...
- Will the White Tower break Akane's temper or will Akane's temper break
the Tower?
Don't know, it comes too close.
- Will the Nerimians ever go back home or will they like it too much in
Randland?
Like it, with Aes Sedai chasing them around?
Who says they won't be doing some of the chasing themselves?
- Why aren't I writing more Lines Of Destiny instead of this crap?
Crap? You take it in such a bad way.
Do I?
- I could make a very serious story out of all this junk...
I WANT THE SERIOUS STORY!!!
Ooookaaaayyyy....
- I could make a very silly story out of all this junk...
You probably could.
I've never written a funny 'fic before... I wonder how I'd do?
- Biles, this is *ALL* *YOUR* *FAULT!* ;)
Yesss... we musssst all killlll Bilessss...
Another faithful supporter...
Comments and MST's welcome! ^_^ (E-mail them to me as well as to the
FFML!)
MST's when a chapter's done!
Forward this to the list if you dare! ^_^
I dare!
