One question: Has anyone done an alternate world where the curses only
affect _the minds_ of the cursed?
Ranma, for example, would start acting (and thinking) femininely every time
he gets hit by cold water, but remaining physically the same. (Imagine the
Tendo's first impression ... Or the relationship between Kuno and "His pigtail
goddess" with Ranma-chan as the obsessed one, and Ranma-kun's subsequent
problems.)
Ryouga would only act like a piglet, which would make it impossible for him
to hide the curse to Akane the way he does in the manga. (I'm not sure what
Ranma would do to help him keep the secret. Invent a pig-fist training/trauma
story?)
Shampoo could quite possibly use her curse as a sympathy ploy, (and/or as a
chance at seduction & marriage to her groom, of course.)
Anyway, if anyone has done something like this, could you let me know where I
could get a copy?
If not, and the idea seems worthy of exploration, feel free to use it, since
I don't feel confident enough (yet!) to be able to write this in the proper
tone/mood. (I'm thinking it should be somewhat somber, with touches of black
comedy, but someone else may think differently.)
... Well, enough ranting for now, I still have to read/skim through most of
tonight's posts on the list, so ...
'till my next post,
