[Episode 145563] [Episode 145563]"Erm..." Ranma struggled.
Ukyo leaned against him, still not interrupting his hug. "And that means you don't act upset or frightened that she tries to get close to you or make you happy. Understand?"
Panicked nodding was her response. Kasumi seemed to be melting against him again, that was a good sign. He'd been frightened by how bad her reaction had been earlier.
Standing up straighter, Ukyo informed her beloved. "Now, just so you understand, if a girl doesn't like you she gets really upset if you try to take liberties with her body. That's why Akane's always smashing you. She doesn't like you a bit, so whenever you even look like you might want to touch her she gets angry and hits you. Kasumi and Dachi and I, we all love you, Ranchan. So it's okay for you to do that sort of stuff with us, we even like it. So..." she took hold of his right hand, and gently guided it under Kasumi's skirt to grab a stretch of bare bottom. "Now squeeze, gently Ranchan. Gently."
Kasumi giggled, delighted as he made a few experimental gropes down in her nether regions. The panicked animals that had all disappeared to hide under bushes or trees poked their heads out, and the nasty storm cloud that had lowered over the Kuno estate fell prey to a breeze and blew off, letting the sun in again.
Standing nearby, Ukyo whispered for her beloved's benefit, "Ranchan, if a woman lets you touch her she's giving you the most precious, special thing she has to offer, and trusting you not to hurt her. You're supposed to enjoy it, and when a girl makes you that happy it's nice manners to let her know it. So go ahead and smile, or tell her how good she makes you feel and mushy stuff like that, okay?"
Groping bottom both soft and silky smooth, Ranma clearly didn't know what to say, but his terror was rapidly leaving him, and Kasumi (and both other girls, for that matter) took that for the compliment it was.
"Wow..." he squeezed out, and since he was so low on brain cells at the moment, that was received as probably the highest order compliment he could give. Kasumi relaxed against him and began to cry glad tears of release once again.
Somewhere inside of the house an old stereo chugged into life and started to crank out The Pastoral Symphony.
Ukyo stepped around Kasumi, and reached around the older girl from behind, taking ahold of her top. "Even looking at her is a privilege, Ranchan. Anything she'd normally cover with a swimsuit is special, and she reserves for someone she loves." She smiled, and advised, "Look into her face, Ranchan. Is Kasumi happy or sad about where you have your hand?"
"Happy. She looks really happy."
"So you should be happy, too. Now look again at her face in a minute, but for now direct your gaze a little lower." She moved Kasumi's top and two bountiful breasts bounced free. "Take a look, Ranchan. Look long and hard, and enjoy what you see. That's an order!"
By his mesmerized look, tracking every jiggle, there was no chance of disobedience from him. He even removed one hand from Kasumi's back to touch those orbs in such close proximity, while still groping her bottom with the other.
After a minute Ukyo reached into this embrace to gently lift her beloved's chin so that it went back to gazing at Kasumi's face. "Now, quick check, Ranchan. Have you ever seen Kasumi happier?"
"No." He truthfully replied, still puzzled a bit by this all.
"And you recall how upset she was earlier?" Ucchan asked delicately.
"Yup." No way was he forgetting that!
"They're connected, Ranchan. She's given herself to you, body and soul. If you act like you don't like her she gets unhappy fast. Once you show that you DO like her, she's as happy as happy gets. Okay? Always keep moving toward happy, even if you think you are already there. That prevents any accidents or misunderstandings, Ranchan."
Fierce nodding was her reply, and she released his chin, which tracked down along with those blue eyes to return to Kasumi's chest, which was now squished up against him.
"That same thing goes for Dachi and me, Ranchan. Remember this simple rule: Once you have a girl, or three," she giggled, "never let her think you don't like her. Don't ever forget it. If she's upset, reassure her."
"Uhm, what's ree..ash?"
"Reassure. It's the opposite of insults, Ranchan. You tell her things to make her happy, not angry. Mostly you just say what you like about her. You get better with practice, so you should practice every chance you get." She winked. "So try something on her."
"Uhm," the boy struggled, focusing in on Kasumi and feeling off-balance. He brushed her skin. "So soft... Um! You smell nice... and I... that is... Oh, Kasumi! You're the kindest, most wonderful girl I know! What could you want with me?"
Ukyo winced, but Kasumi's melting eyes raised from his shoulder and she put a finger to his lips. "Hush, Ranma. You mustn't hurt Ukyo or Kodachi when you compliment me. Saying that one is best also says that others are less. You don't want to hurt a girl by saying she is less than wholly important to you, because that's not true, is it?"
Out of his depth, but learning fast, he furiously shook his head. Ukyo relaxed as that hurt passed her by, and she whispered silent thanks to Kasumi.
The eldest Tendo girl nestled her head back against the nook of Ranma's neck, snuggling close, her pillowy breasts soft cushions against his chest. "As for why I want you, Ranma, if you were a girl you'd know at once. You already saved me from the most horrible fate that could ever happen to a woman. I'm grateful. But more than that you are handsome, and kind. You are always doing your best to help others. You have a number of good qualities to balance out the harsh edges your father gave you. But..." she nervously bit her lower lip and raised her eyes to his before proceeding. "I think, once Ukyo and perhaps others taught you a bit more about how to behave properly, I think you'd make a wonderful father, and I want to have babies, Ranma."
A whistle sounded as twin jets of steam emerged, teakettle-style, from Ranma's ears.
In the background, the radio crackled and announced that the Diet had decided to declare today a national holiday, to be celebrated with picnics and dancing.
Having reset a number of expended traps (while still carefully listening), Kodachi bounced closer to throatily agree. "Ranma-sama, I too wish to bear your future offspring. Perhaps we should all retire to my room for greater privacy?"
Seconds after they all vanished within, Tatewaki staggered home, covered in dust, soot, leaning on a bokken, and more than a trifle annoyed that Genma had given him the slip again.
That paragon of swordsmanship collapsed just inside of the entrance, nearly tripping Sasuke as that diminutive ninja came in overburdened with bags of groceries.
