Treasure
Even cutting through the air in a sweep, tickled flaps clicking, his umbrella is an extension of himself.
Dream
Out of the glass case he kept her in, away from the glare and close (so close), she is more beautiful than ever.
Follow
His fingers itch to pinch the hood of her jacket, but he won’t let them.
Revolt
“FOOLS!” writes Ranma’s father when they say they’re going to meet Ryoga’s parents; after a dialogue in glances—May I? Go for it—Ryoga conks him on the head with his umbrella.
War
The girls have forbidden fighting today—this is a date, after all—so he tells Ranma, “I can do more cartwheels than you.”
Rain
Under his umbrella, she reaches for his arm.
Cradle
Although he’s lived here officially for months, this is the first time he answers the phone.
Surprise
When he answers the door, a woman with prominent canine teeth asks if he knows the way to Takamatsu Station.
Weary
“Ryoga,” says Mr. Tendo, sighing, “if that girl keeps visiting, I won’t have any doors left.”
Insult
“Akane and the pigtailed girl are too good for you—and so is death,” says Kuno just before they all whack him.
Drunk
When Ranma says, "I'll take you all on!" he knows he should step in, but doesn't feel like it.

Snap
His bandana is like a whip in his hand.
Shoot
“Nabiki, goddammit, get out of our room!”
Honesty
“You’re an asshole sometimes, you know that?” Ranma says.
Fearless
Ranma thought this was a stupid idea; in retrospect, that was probably a bad sign.
Game
He doesn’t see what’s so great about the new Street Fighter II when there are two other Street Fighter IIs already; Ranma says he’s just bitter because he can’t do a hadoken.
Match
In the dojo, they’re both breathing heavily and her hair is plastered to her forehead.
Gift
He sends them boxes of maple sugar candy and a photograph of everyone in that band with that bomb-thing from Super Mario Bros. on their drumset signed by all the members--"PS. Ranma, Wallace thinks you’re hot” under his student’s name.
Melancholy
He sometimes misses the violin strings stretched almost to breaking, just a little.
Serendipity
He’s sort of glad he met all these morons, even—no, especially—the ones he used to hate.
Betrayal
“Ranma said he really wants to taste it when it’s done,” he tells Akane.
Forgive
Sometimes, as she scratches behind his ears and talks to him without expecting him to say anything in return, he wonders if what Ranma’s done isn’t so horrible after all—but just briefly.
Bite
“And this little piggy went, ‘I can’t find my way ho’—OW!” *

Smooth
“Akane-san, will you watch me come to the movies?”
Cuddle
“I missed ya!” says Ranma, but he tells him to get off his head anyway.
First
“Where am I now?” he asks no one in particular; the orange-haired woman laughs and hugs the weirdo in the straw hat while Ranma puts his face in his hands.
Jealousy
He can tell Akane likes women better—in that way—and it isn’t fair, because Ranma always wins.

Revenge
It’s a flashfire that burns itself out before he even notices.
Love
He goes back for the competition, and for her.
Beauty
He thinks she’s a perfect picture of her name, riding Katsunishiki into the sun; Akane thinks so, too.
Power
“Put me down, you jerk!” says Ranma, his voice in a manly register.
Uncertain
He doesn’t know if he should take her hand or not.
Lost

No

Flutter
Goddamn crowds.
Fail

Flirt
“Akane won’t tell you, but you really suck at this.”
Acceptance
Instead of being a smartass--"This is a lot of school days to miss, even for me"--Ranma just says, “Yo” and cracks his knuckles.
Food
For their picnic, he makes Akane carrot-roses and Akari and ongiri pig; for Ranma, an ongiri of Hello Kitty dressed as Chun-Li.
