[A very irritated yet defeated Ranma makes it a point to come on the journal this morning to gripe.]

Oi, I have a word of advice for all'a you bachelors an' all around good guys out there.

Next time y'decide to do somethin' out of the kindness of yer heart? Just do it an' keep on goin' with yer life. Don't stop an' let somethin' grow outta it. While I'm at it, never get married, don't agree t'get married, an' if you absolutely, positively hafta, then get it done right away.

Trust me. It'll save you a lot of headaches later.

[Boy, he doesn't sound apologetic about recent going ons at all.]

One of 'em can make people think you owe 'em somethin'. The other causes a hell of a lotta headaches later, with plannin' stuff an' makin' sure your friends don't try t'put a stop to it.

[ Welp. He's already a little confused about which is which, but he thinks he can hack a good guess. ]

Right, right. That does sound like a pretty hard bargain. Why would your friends be trying to stop it?

Because they think I aughta be marryin' them instead.

Ohhhh. Well hey, kind of feel your pain there, man. I mean, when I got engaged, it was more that the girl I was engaged to wanted to marry me and I didn't want to get married?

[ Man… ]

Maybe marriage is kind of a messy business in general.

See, yeah. Why were they forcin' ya to get married? Isn't it s'posed to be a natural thing? That really sucks!

[he feels your pain. ~~except not really~~]

Yeahhhh, I was kind of trying to break up with her. Only, you know, she was terrifying and probably could have impaled me with ice spikes, which was why I wanted to break up with her, but. You know. I tried and she whipped out the engagement necklace. [ Haha, man, those... crazy days... ]

Everything turned out okay in the end, though! Eventually!

How the hell'd you get tangled up with a crazy chick like that in the first place?!

[man, at least akane doesn't try to impale him...]

Oh, I asked her out. [ Or he was going to, but he was awful at it, but she was kinda like "whatever you're mine now". ] Eska's great at first impressions!

--Then that's kinda two completely different things! It wasn't my choice t'get stuck with a girl like that!

[even if it wound up being his choice, shh.]

Right, gotcha! Totally up to speed now! Why haven't you broken up with her, exactly?

Uh... well... y'see, it's uh... a little complicated.
