Which was a desire that he not be thought of as a pervert now had not only skewed gender ratios, but that males had a lower sex drive and sensitivity. Meaning that they really didn't get that much enjoyment out of the act. Human males still got SOME enjoyment out of it and they still had certain emotional needs for closeness/companionship. It just wasn't high on their priority lists. What DID rate high on their priority lists were other things now that the hormonal balance had shifted. To the primitive humans who'd first developed the lower sex drive, it had been survival that had been their overriding priority. Accumulation of wealth (food, stuff that could be turned into equipment, and the like) had been a major way for males to compete and find their self-worth. Art in all its various forms had been a way to relax and while away time.
Though Ranma didn't know it at present, the presence of elaborate engravings on prehistoric tools was now considered the mark when human civilization had begun distancing themselves beyond pure animalistic survival. That was the Eemian Interglacial period, when the alteration had been backtracked to.
Akane, Nabiki, and Kasumi all had grounding in the Tendo Branch of the Anything Goes School.
Kasumi Tendo therefore considered just taking Ranma and doing something nicely ecchi with him. If that didn't work out, those two buff young male ninja retainers of his would do nicely too. Oh yes, very nice indeed.
Hayate looked distinctly uncomfortable as the young lady in the housedress gave him a once over that made him feel some discomfort.
"Three guys, three sisters," said some girl sitting on the stairs.
"Lord Ranma has a great deal of authority with our clan," admitted Ryu, "however that is NOT something he can decide for us."
"Same with his father," said Hayate, just to try and head off such deals, "the head of our ninja clan has to approve anything of that nature."
"HIYAAAAAAAAA!" yelled some girl as she attacked from concealment.
WHACK! went Hitomi's midrange punch, which this strange girl managed to block.
WHAM! went Ayane's high kick.
BAM! went the hilt of Kasumi's sword into the attacker's belly button.
"Oh dear," said Kasumi Tendo. "You'll have to excuse Akane. She's a really sweet girl when she's not being a violent maniac."
"That didn't hurt you know," said Akane, her gaze sweeping the group. THUD! Followed by her limply falling to the ground.
ZIP! went Nabiki, tying the now-collapsed sister up and putting a "Do Not Open Until Christmas" sticker across her mouth.
"Nabiki?" asked Kasumi Tendo. "What are you doing?"
"Lowering the competition... I mean," said Nabiki, changing stories mid breath, "I'm making sure she doesn't cause any more problems. You know how obsessive and violent and violently obsessive little sister here can be."
"Oh," said Kasumi Tendo. "I see. Go ahead then."
"Right," said Nabiki, putting the unconscious shibari-tied/gagged Akane in a large pet carrier and slapping a shipping label on it. "Be right back."
"Did you notice she had two of those arranged underneath that blanket?" asked Ayane of the local Kasumi as Nabiki dragged her package out to the curb.
"Oh dear, yes, so thoughtful of her, wasn't it?" said Kasumi Tendo. "This gives me more time with my fiance right away. Wasn't that nice of her?"
"Uh huh," said Ayane, not pursuing it further.
"Okay, did I miss -" began Nabiki.
KA-WHANG!
"Oh dear, I saw that fly there and just unthinkingly swatted it," said Kasumi Tendo, looking apologetic. "Let me just clean up this mess."
"Must be that sisterly camaraderie like my sisters occurs with other families as well," noted Hayate.
rope, hogtie, gag, crate, slap, drag.
"While Miss Tendo deals with that," said Hayate, "this must be MISTER Tendo."
"Saotome, my old friend," said Soun, rising to clasp hands with his old buddy before noticing his absence. "Where is he?"
"Still asleep in your front yard, some fast acting sleep drug," supplied Hayate.
"Ah, girls will be girls," philosophized Soun. "I'm sure he could use the nap anyway."
"Ranma, we'll be outside as perimeter guards," said Hayate, gesturing to Ryu.
"Fine, fine," said Ranma. "It's normal for them to drug guests?"
"Well, no, not usually," admitted Soun. "Not usually."
