One of Ukyo's brows twitched and she closed her eyes as she spoke in tones that betrayed a trembling hold on control. "/All/ of you are his fiancees too?"
"Best way that I could put it."
"And you're all okay about this?"
"Well, we don't always get along, but... it's right for us."
"I don't get it. I really don't," the chef muttered as she reached up to massage one of her temples.
"What don'tcha get?"
"Maybe something having to do with the fact that you seem to have your own little group... union thing going on?"
"Ya don't like that we are all planning on being with him?" the redheaded pokegirl asked, and then shrugged. "Well then, why don't ya join in?"
"Eh?! Sakura took pity on the rather obviously confused human girl, and gave a small and apologetic half bow as she stepped forward. "We're pokegirls, and for us, group arrangements happen all the time. At least, that was the case where we came from."
"Hold on a second. Are you telling me that the girls from your world go in groups to guys?"
"Not the human ones. Human to human marriage is something that's still one on one. But pokegirls have always stuck with their human."
"You have to understand, pokegirls started as weapons," Kohran informed the human female. "They were set to be used by one person at a time. But one person could have many weapons."
"Which means...." Ukyo trailed off.
"To use your 'dog' idea, even if it isn't exactly kind, they were kept in 'packs' controlled by a human. It could be one pokegirl, or many, but there were never more than one person in charge. And after the war, things got a whole lot more official."
The human brunette's brow furrowed in a show of slight confusion. "In what way?"
"Well, it became permanent, with rules, competition, and people having their pokegirls face off."
"But that sounds like.... If that's the set up, then...."
"He's our trainer," said Iris before yawning.
"Like... in sports?"
"Something like that," the Slicer confirmed.
"Then you are like a team...."
"Yes, we would be, back where we came from. Of course, now, the bond's based on feelings, and an spiritual connection."
"'Now'? What was it set up with before?"
"Ummm.... Uhh.... That is.... Until recently, pokegirls were bonded to their human masters by...."
"Yes?"
Sakura's face turned a bright pink, and she seemed to be too flustered to answer. Not that Kohran was much better, as she was currently smiling to herself and looking at her feet. It seemed that Kanna might be able to say something, but she was staying silent with a broad smirk on her face. And Iris had finally fallen asleep.
But there was one pokegirl who didn't seem to have any problem with speaking. "Sex."
"Huh?!" the chef blurted as she turned to the speaker.
"Sex. A pokegirl could connect with her trainer through other ways, like common interests, or emotional connections, but the truth is that having sex with a pokegirl was what kept them as sane as they could be, and loyal," the fox-woman informed her.
"How did that...."
"It was really simple. A pokegirl who didn't have sex with her tamer lost her 'humanity', and became nothing more than a human shaped animal, in a lot of cases. Of course, there were breeds that had different reactions to not being 'Tamed', but the general idea holds," the fire type said with a lazy wave of her hand.
"And now...."
"We need an emotional connection, though nothing says that we can't follow at least part of the old ways, you might say. After all, no one would be able to stop us if we want to have sex with our /Master/ if it was truly our desire, now would they? And just think about what that would mean for you."
"Me?" Ukyo sqeaked.
"Well, if you marry him, that'll make you our Mistress," said Sumire, eyeing the young girl and licking her lips.
Most of the others blushed deeply, with the brown haired human girl looking rather nervous at the moment. That seemed to please the Vixxen, who was rather amused by the situation, if her 'cat got the cream' expression was to be believed. Of course, the way that she to be actively considering what sharing a bed, and Ranma, with this human would be like didn't exactly change minds either.
For his part, Ryoga woke up long enough to blearily gaze upon Sumire looking at Ukyo like she was a tasty bit of sexual 'candy', before getting another nosebleed, letting his eyes roll back up into his head, and fainting once more.
Fortunately for all those involved, Iris' slumber precluded any increase in the awkwardness of the moment, while:
