Akane stood alone in the dojo, too wrapped up in her thoughts to continue her katas. She just couldn't get over what Kasumi had done to her in the bath... what Akane had allowed Kasumi to do to her. It was so strange, so different from what she'd always thought to be normal behaviour for her oldest sister/surrogate mother. And yet... at the same time... the transition from comforting her youngest sister to fondling and intensely kissing her had gone so smoothly, that it must have seemed at least slightly natural to Kasumi for her to do so. In point of fact, Akane herself hadn't exactly resisted that kiss, rather she'd melted into it, enjoying it immensely, at least until she stopped to consider just what the hell they were doing.
Akane had a job to do (though a not entirely unpleasant one ^_^); she couldn’t afford to be all tied up in knots about her angelic older sister's free hands and scorching kisses.
"Tan-sama... are you there?"
Oh, Akane-chan! You called?
Akane blinked. "Are you talking in my head?"
Yes, well... more direct intervention of the gods with mortal affairs is sort of frowned upon these days. Dreams are much preferred, because they're easy to just brush off as random imaginings if you're not mentally prepared to accept the idea of gods chit-chatting with you. Of course, what with you being the Chosen One, and avatar with a special task set by one of us, there's a bit of leeway when dealing with you, personally. It wouldn't go well though if I just fully manifested there in the dojo with you. People could come in... 'Akane, who's this?' 'Oh this is Tan, he's a god.' Bad bad bad... Anyway, what was it you wanted to talk about?
Akane blinked. "Um... okay then. I was wondering if you could explain to me why Kasumi did what she did in the bath?"
The bath? Hang on, I'll rewind the records... Ah, I see. You're referring to all that touchy-feely business?
Akane felt her face burn. "And that kiss..."
I guess that sort of behaviour is a tad rare in your culture. Hmm, how to explain... Well, you recall how I said I lay with my daughter to beget your ancestors, making you my direct descendant?
"Yeah..."
Well think about it; if you're the descendant of Tan, god of Lust, what does that make your sister?
Akane's eyes widened. "You mean... they have the blood of a lust god in them too?"
That's how bloodlines tend to work, my dear. Each of them have talents and inclinations of their own, just as you do. Of course, my daughter's characteristics have bred a bit more true in you than they, which is why I declared you to be the Chosen One over them. You look so much like your great-grandma, I could just eat you up! ^_^
Akane blinked. "Um... okay. Still, Kasumi's so proper and traditional about everything else, how can she think it okay to make out with her baby sister in the bathtub?"
Aside from having the 'Anything-Goes' sexual orientation and higher than average libido that she has inherited from me, you mean? I suppose it depends on how far back you want to consider 'traditional'. If you want to get into creation theories, it all started with only a few, who bred together a new generation, and another after that... each time some new god-kid was born, his or her parents were either siblings, parent-child, or close cousins. There wasn't anyone to get it on with who wasn't family! So you can see that in the heavens, considering incest a crime would be pretty hypocritical. Heck, the Judeo-Christian creation myth has god creating the first man, then the first woman from the man's body (so they were already related). They had three sons (and some daughters too, but nobody seemed to care enough about them to remember their numbers, much less their names). From these few the entire human race is supposed to have spawned. That would make every human being on earth the product of incest.
Akane puzzled over that for a minute. "So you're saying there's really nothing at all wrong with incest?"
Er... well, that depends. Given the instability of the human genome in this era, it can cause serious problems if you procreate. I wouldn't recommend you go rushing off to jump your daddy's bones if you don't want your kids to be weird looking, or retarded. On the other hand, adding a romantic and/or sexual element to the love you share for your sisters can't really do much harm, as long as you're discrete about it. A big source of the taboo attitude toward incest is that the concept got all mixed up with child-abuse; frustrated parents raping their prepubescent children... something which absolutely does NOT wash with the heavenly powers, if you get me.
Akane made a face of disgust. "I should hope not!"
Is that all you wanted to know, or was their something else you wanted to ask?
"Just... one thing. You said other women would be needed to keep Ranma sexually sated enough from going mad. I assumed you meant the other fiancées who chase him, but... what about... that is... do you think my older sisters..."
Would be prime candidates for the roles of your 'support staff'. Both of them also carry my blood, and the abilities to be truly incredible lovers, just as you do. And before you ask, yes Nabiki is just as much bisexual with as few inhibitions about non-procreative incest as Kasumi and you are.
"Oh." Akane whispered in a tiny voice. "Um... okay... that's... Nevermind. One more question: If I were to bring both my sisters into this... open-bed type marriage, would that be enough, or would I still need to let other girls share my Ranma?"
The godly voice in her head was silent for a time, considering. It... might, MIGHT be enough, considering all that you three have inherited from my side of the family. To be honest though, I'd rather you didn't risk that three incredibly sexy women would just be barely enough to contain the horrible insanity that rests within Ranma. I really have little right to tell you how to manage your personal life, especially considering the burden I've dropped into your lap, but I hope you would consider at least two or three more, just to be on the safe side.
Akane sighed. 'Rats!' "Okay, I'll think about it."
You do that. Good luck Akane-chan. Grandpappy's rooting for you! Ride that stallion!
Akane rolled her eyes. Just what she'd always wanted, an ethereal grandfather-figure who redefined the word 'horny'. She wondered if there was any relationship to another horny old man she knew and resented?
Shaking her head to clear it, Akane left the dojo to:
