Mermaid Akane

Akane stood beside the school swimming pool, contemplating it with trepidation. In P.E. class that day the teacher had announced they would have a swimming test next week. Unfortunately, not only was she unable to swim, but she tended to sink like a rock as soon as she touched the water. What was she to do?

Suddenly she was shoved from behind, and went flying out over the water, arms flapping uselessly. A voice called from behind her, “No! Don't do it, Miss Tendo!” just as she struck the surface. Fortunately, it was the three foot depth area. Unfortunately, she went under anyway.

After a great deal of struggle her hand managed to hook around what proved to be a life preserver floating above her. She was dragged out of the pool coughing and choking.

“Why did you do it Miss Tendo?”.

She looked up into the ridiculous face of the principal, wearing his Hawaiian shirt and lei, with the tiny palm tree atop his head. Annoyed with the maniac, she shouted, “I didn't want to do anything!”

Upon learning that this student couldn't swim, the man broke down into tears. “But dat's kapu,” he sobbed. “Dere a big school rule dat say, no swimmin', no bobbin' up to nex' grade!”

“Really?” she asked skeptically, knowing the man's penchant for making up strange new rules.

“Yah!” he affirmed. Then his face lit up. “I just get big idea! I gonna teach you how swimming!”

Akane frowned distrustfully, but then began worrying at her lower lip with her teeth. She not only needed to learn how to swim for the test, but had dreamed of doing so for years. Could he really do it? He was a teacher. Of sorts. He must have taught somebody something at some point, in order to be certified as a teacher. And she did want to learn so badly.

She gazed once more at his earnest expression.

Taking a deep breath, she smiled and proclaimed, “All right! I'll do it!”

The principal slapped her on the back. “You gonna be da greates' swimmer evah!”

Missed opportunities in Ranma 1/2

When you think about it, there were an awful lot of incidents in the Ranma 1/2 series where a female character could have been taken advantage of, either through magical means or through some form of helplessness such as unconsciousness or bondage. I decided to make a quick list, which I'm sure will miss some possibilities.

Kodachi's Comeuppance

Kodachi's face and hair doesn't look much like her in this picture, at least to me. Nonetheless, it's a fitting thing to have happen to her, I think. I imagine it happening something like this.

"How dare that red-haired tart defeat me, the Black Rose! I swear that I shall have my revenge! Then my darling Ranma-sama shall be mine at last. Oho ho ho ho ho ho ho ..."

Kodachi slammed the door of the gymnasium open and marched out into the night. The match had ended long since, and there were few people around. She herself should have left long ago, but the teenage gymnast had found it necessary to work out her frustrations by using her ribbons to tear the gymnasium equipment apart. A task upon which she had cheerfully spent hours.

A movement nearby brought her ribbon up in a snap, and she lashed the girl who had the temerity to approach her on this dark path, so soon after her defeat. The girl gave a cry of pain, and fell to her knees.

Ryoga spanking Ranma

Remember the arc where Akane visited Ryoga's house, and Ranma pretended to be Ryoga's non-existent little sister Yoiko? I can easily imagine that Ryoga realized it was Ranma, and used it as an excuse to give her a very, very thorough paddling. Right in front of Akane. A much more intense punishment than in canon, one which would leave Ranma bawling, begging for mercy, and promising to be a good little girl from now on.

And Ranma would have to live with the embarrassment of knowing that Akane and Ryoga both remember this spanking. And that they both know - although perhaps Akane was only certain afterward - that it was Ranma whom Ryoga was spanking.

Piercing

It has been privately suggested that I consider having the molesters force Ranma and Akane to be pierced, as this provides possibilities for BDSM play. I thought I'd let everyone know now that this isn't going to happen, for the simple reason that I personally regard piercing as a turn off.

Please note, this is a personal taste. I have no problem with other people liking it, or liking to read about it, or having it done themselves. But as the author of the story, given that writing about it would have a negative effect on my libido, it's not going to be showing up.

Sorry 'bout that (for those of you who would have enjoyed it).
