Seppuku" Saotome just told him to think for himself? "Mom, are you
serious?"

Had his mother...

Ranma's POV. Do not expect perfect grammer.

Nodoka smiled and nodded. "Yes, you will. You have chosen wisely."

For some reason the emphasis Nodoka put on the last sentence sent chills
of cold terror up Ranma's spine. "Err... thanks."

<snicker> Yes, much better than aging to dust in the space of 30 seconds.
:-)

Someone finally got the refrence! ^_^

Ranma face twisted into a grimace, he had been hoping that he could be
happily married and away from the Tendo Dojo before he had to tell his

Old

Man. "Mom, you have got to be shitting me."

And obviously he's cared so little for Akane over 38 volumes that she
doesn't even cross his mind...

And maybe in the equivilant amount of time between the then and now his
affection towards her was strangeled to the point where he doesn't. �.�

Why couldn't he realize that? The Tendo/Saotome union was for the good

of

the Art. If only Ranma could abandon his misplaced sense of honor, he

Isn't family honor what Genma's always trying to bludgeon Ranma with?

Yes, you do recall that Genma is a petty self-centered moron who only looks
out for himself.

"Hello, husband," said Nodoka. Genma gulped, she had her Katana. Every

Genma gulped. She had her Katana.  I assume the capitalization is
intentional. :-)

Maybe ;)

"I'm getting married..."

"...but it ain't Akane."

Don't bother asking the girl first, or anything... After all, Mom told him
to make his own decisions. ;-)

Hey, this is RANMA were talking about. He does not exactly think ahead about
these things...

honor bound to marry a Tendo! The schools must be joined!"

Back that honor thing again. :-)

See above.

"Husband, a more pressing 'engagement' has come to life, and I am afraid
that I agree with Ranma. It take precedence over the Tendo betrothal,"
interrupted Nodoka.

"come to life" or "come to light"?

Light...

She was obviously unhappy with the decision, but shook her head. "While

I

do not agree with this choice, I am his wife and must support his
decision. I'm sorry, Ranma."

She must?  When did this start??

She's a traditional Japanese house wife... she may trust Genma as far as she
can throw him with honor issues, but she's still his wife.

Ranma paused for a bit. "Crap, I can't remember right now! Oh well, onto
'Plan B'. Hey, could go separate ways for a while?"

Can't remember now?  Couldn't he just look it up in the phone book?

He could... but I doubt that Ranma eould even know that addrersses are IN
the phonebook.

could not help but worry about where he was going to sleep at night if

it

didn't pan out.

After all the times he's been kicked out, I wouldn't think it would be a
big problem to go camp in the vacant lot for the night.

But he has a lot more crap now that really should NOT get rained on.
Expensive school books do NOT like H2O.

It's developing nicely, keep it up. :-)

I'm glad you like it ^_^
