Raven was normally quiet, sullen even.
Raven had grown quite animated while speaking of their soon-to-arrive guest Ranma.
Kasumi nodded to herself, a smile curving her features. Clearly Raven was finally growing up and showing some interest in boys.
Nabiki let out a deep breath as she studied the ceiling of her room from her position on her bed.
A boy, eh? The cryptic comments from Raven indicated that this 'Ranma' was someone with secrets. Secrets that the Yakuza would be interested in.
She had a certain degree of self-preservation. She also knew that the Yakuza had been nosing about for metahumans of late, particularly those that were either on the 'supervillain' or 'trying to pass for normal' sides. That was explained because if they went after the heroes and those who were considered allies of the police - the police tended to react as if the Yakuza were targetting law enforcement specifically. Which meant that bribes might not be sufficient.
It wasn't like she could erase incidents over the years where her abilities had come into play. All of the Tendo family knew to maintain secret identities - but they had slipped from time to time.
Draw attention to herself, and yeah - it could be bad.
Nabiki mused that over and decided it sounded like Ranma would be kind of high-profile. Best to foist him off on someone else.
Raven was the safest choice. As the youngest Tendo, nobody would be getting married right away in any case.
Akane was a little confused. She had a reputation as Furinkan's resident lesbian. Which she was NOT. She just didn't like boys. At least she thought so.
Gaining a fiance would help put down that rumor, and she might be able to distance herself from Tatewaki Kuno and his attempts to 'woo her back to the proper path' or whatever catchphrase he was going on about now.
Still, this 'Ranma' was a BOY. She knew all about boys after all. They were all stupid, perverted, greedy, grasping, smelly, dumb, sex-crazed, repetitive, IDIOTS.
What she needed was a way to deflect the engagement. She didn't have any...
Hey, Raven! Raven didn't like boys either but she was too young to marry anyway. Perfect!
Raven's head slumped in mid-meditate. "idiot sisters."
The precog winced at a glimpse of a potential future. Apparently the alien girl associating with Ranma would be coming into their lives soon:
