Some day, this will be a "Last.fm/NetFlix/Amazon for web fiction" (both original and fanfiction) where you can search across many different hosting sites or rate what you've read and get recommendations. However, life keeps throwing more urgent projects my way, so I don't know when it'll be ready.
Story Rating:
Multiplicity, Chapter 9"Thanks, Ranma, I really appreciate this," said Ryoga.
Ranko flashed a sunny smile that made Ryoga's knees weak. "I enjoyed it, old pal, and it's the least I could do for you after helping you get cursed." She paused briefly and then changed the subject. "You know, Ryoga, I wouldn't object if you paid court to Akane."
Ryoga was shocked. "I thought you two were an item..."
Ranko looked wistful briefly. "It's complicated. I think we love each
other, and I think I would be happy married to her, but I don't think she could be happily married to me. She's jealous of my achievements - I excell at things she only aspires to, and it slowly eats her alive."Ryoga grinned. "And if she accepts me, then you'd have one less fiancee to worry about?"
Ranko replied, "I have many would-be brides, but I don't think I have any that would be stable, happy partners. Akane is too competitive. Ukyo only dreams of running a restaurant; can you imagine me being happy as a waitress? Shampoo would be delighted to bear my children - it would bring her great prestige among the Amazons - but can you see me fitting in to a culture where men are second-class citizens and women rule? Kodachi is
flat-out crazy. Tatewaki wants to marry me and/or kill me, depending on what form I'm in at the moment. Kasumi will make a fine wife someday, but she really belongs to Tofu. Nabiki isn't passionate about anything except money and control. I think I could get along with her - she wouldn't compete with me - but I'd always have to be on guard against her deviousness...""Maybe you need a completely different type of girl - a dress designer or a journalist," suggested Ryoga.
Ranko flashed that smile again. "I have a great many other choices, you know. I could marry a man such as you, Ryoga."
Ryoga made warding gestures. "Now wait a minute..."
"Or, if I really wanted to marry a peer, I could marry my male form to my female form. Making love to myself might be very rewarding..."
Ryoga's nose spurted red as he fainted.
