Mihoshi watched as the boy's head scrunched up in thought, it looked painful.
"I wish people would listen to me and stop blaming me all the time!!" Ranma said, then covered his mouth with his eyes wildly looking in all directions.
Yes, Ranma could be clueless in the extreme. Even he could see this as being granted in some completely evil manner.
"Granted," said Mihoshi, folding her arms and blinking.
Just then, Akane was approaching from an intersection at full steam when 10,000 lemmings carrying surfboards from another thread ran over her.
"Hmmmm," said Mihoshi, frowning. "That wasn't it. Let me try - GRANTED!"
Nabiki had just climbed out on this treelimb to hear what Ranma was doing with this blonde girl when dozens of cloth-eating moths converged on her location. In moments she was stripped down to her birthday suit and the moths went in search of new targets. Nabiki grabbed some leaves and began sneaking back down the tree when she discovered the homeowners had let their dog back into the yard. Nabiki decided to wait it out in the tree. That the leaves she was trying to cover herself with was poison ivy didn't immediately register.
"That didn't work either," complained Mihoshi. "Ok, this time for sure!"
Tatewaki Kuno had decided his attacks hadn't gone well because he'd declared his righteousness THEN attacked. Perhaps what he needed to do was smite the foul sorcerer THEN declare his cause.
At which point the moths that had just left Nabiki found him, stripped him of clothes and his train of thought, before going off on their own.
Tatewaki Kuno, having his sword hanging in the wind, decided to duck into this yard nearby to reclaim his dignity and prepare his attack.
Grrrrrrrrrrr ROWF!BITEsnapCRUNCHchomp
"AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" Tatewaki Kuno ran, whimpering and crouched over, back for his palatial estates and some medical supplies.
Ranma wet his lips. Aware of the lemmings though not who they'd run over, aware that someone had made a number of squealing noises in that tree, and quite aware (and wishing he could forget) of that image of a naked Tatewaki Kuno having a run in with the Yamashiro's dog. (Old Man Yamashiro practicing Martial Arts Dog Training.)
"GrANted," tried Mihoshi.
"Oh hohohohohoho-"clang!"-ho?!" THUD!
Ranma looked a little more nervous as he'd had a clear view of Kodachi roofhopping when a sleigh pulled by flying reindeer carommed off of her head. Kodachi fell down with all the grace of a pregnant yak.
"Uhm," began Ranma.
"This time for sure!" Mihoshi said. "GRANTed!"
Ranma felt warmth around his throat and a faintly oily feeling in his mouth. That passed quickly. After spending a few moments looking for swarms of wild animals, Ranma decided it was safe. Well mostly. "What did you do?"
"Everyone will listen to you and nobody will blame you," said Mihoshi. "Well, I got to go." (Nod-blink-flash!)
Ranma looked around. Nothing had changed?
Azusa staggered as she was hit over the head with a large leather book. "Oooh. Spellcraft For Dummies? Little Azusa wonders if any of this actually works." Feeling a sudden chill, Ranma wondered what had happened.
"Exit stage right?" tried Mihoshi. (Nod-blink-flash-poof.)
Ukyo wondered why she was suddenly naked. As she was still making okonomiyaki in a crowded restaraunt, she was not the only one to notice this. "EEEEEK!"
"Shampoo my love!" Mousse called out as he glomped Mihoshi.
"This definitely wasn't it," said Mihoshi. "Maybe - Next job!" (Nod-blink-flash-poofle!)
Mousse blinked and slowly put his glasses over his eyes. One moment he was in Nerima with his beloved, now he was..."
"A MAN?!" yelled one of the women.
Cracks appeared in Mousse' glasses. The women were fully a foot, perhaps two, taller than him. They kind of reminded him of American football players. Except they were wearing dresses. "Where?!"
"You are the answer to the prayers of the girls of Lower Slobbovia!" exclaimed one of the "women." She further explained. "We've never seen a more handsome man."
"Waitaminute, 'Lower Slobbovia'?" Mousse twitched, and his glasses got a few more cracks as he got a good look at one face. "I... gee. I'm late for an optometrist appointment. See you!" Zip-Zoom-THWAM!
"Whoa, he's cute," said the girl he'd just run into and buried his face into the cleavage thereof. "Mine!"
Ranma took a deep breath as Mihoshi finally faded away. Looked like there were no further side effects, everything was safe now.
Except that:
