Hi.

Ick. The story idea bug bit me again. It itches.

Ranma comes to the Masaki shrine a complete wreck, his confidence shot
to hell and back. Yosho takes him in, and lets the rest of the Tenchi
crew know that he's got a seriously messed up guest who needs to be
alone for a while, and that Ryo-Oh-Ki must not come near the shrine
under any circumstances.

Now, the trouble is that I can't put everything together just right. The
only thing I can imagine that would total Ranma would be Akane dying
late in the series, or _maybe_ Genma getting his fool ass killed.
Neither really fits my purpose, though - the thought I had was for the
Tenchi-tachi to patch his mind together again, Ryoko and Ayeka teaching
him that women aren't weak, and Katsuhito fixing the neko-ken once and
for all. If I use the first, there'll be no need to teach Ranma of
women, and if I use the second, I can't have a Genma-bashing fest.
*pout*

(The original thought was that Ranma ditched panda-man after getting
thrown out by Akane in chapter 1, but that wouldn't be enough, I think.
Unless you perform major surgery to Ranma's personality.)

Now that I think of it, doing it the "Evil Amazons" way could be kind of
interesting - Ranma killed Shampoo after she killed Genma, and blames
himself for hesitating in the first place -- thus the "wreck" status.
Cologne and company is out to get him, and she knows Yosho... Thus, we
get rid of a whole slew of Ranma regulars, most of them fairly boring...

Any further suggestions?
