        I enjoyed it a lot... it was a good short fic, and Ryouga was fairly ooc.  I think he might have been more upset at being seen as he changed, and perhaps David might have been more confused about what had happened.
        After all, it's not every day a man turns into a pig.  ^_^ I somewhat expected Ryouga to get lost as David was using the phone, since "Walking away" tends to denote out of sight.
        I would also ask for a bit more of why Ranma was treating Ryouga more like a friend than a Rival.  We know they're "Friends" <Assumption>, but usually they don't show it so blatantly.
        But, other than that, good characterization... and splendidly done I might add.  It was a bit touching, in the end, when Ryouga decided he could have fun without Akane.  I can almost mentally picture him saying in his mind "Goodbye Akane...." and it being the last time.
        ^_^ Keep up the good work!
