Setsuna Meiou groaned and sat down in her comfy chair. Bad. And from what she could see - it was about to get worse.
"Growf growf gruff groof growf!" said the panda, making some sort of proclamation.
"Yeah, yeah," the boy. "I'd say keep yer shirt on, but ya ain't got one at the moment."
"Groof growf!" protested the portly panda.
"How did this happen?" asked Sarutobi Tendo.
"We went to these cursed springs in China," said Ranma, jerking his thumb at the panda. "He couldn't read or write Chinese. Just knew that there was a secret ninjitsu technique involved. Transformation ninjitsu at that. 'Cause of what happened to me when I was six - the Guide told us right then that I should absolutely not get closer.

"What?" asked Ranma, staring at the old man.
Various interrogatives went out from various daughters as well.
"Oh? Did I forget to mention that?" asked Sarutobi, rubbing the back of his head. "My bad."
"growfle," said the panda.
"No kiddin'," said Ranma. "Why do I gotta get married?!"
