[Episode 30716] [Episode 30716]Gently rocking back and forth on the roof Ranma tried to look at the sky, at the houses and the people moving along intent on their own tasks or jobs. He didn't see any of it though, not on a conscious level. Instead he continued to hear Akane and Shampoo's....noises ......as they did what they did. His mind still tried to comprehend what they were doing even as he tried not to imagine it. In that conflict of interest between the morbid feelings and the shock a seemingly insignificant thought emerged.
How many times had they used his room for that?
Once that thought emerged their was little Ranma could do in his present state of mind to stop the resulting train of thought as it picked out seemingly random pieces of information and assembled them into a concise whole.
The disarray of the guest room.
He'd always thought that was his old man looking for Saki money. Or, later on, Nabiki looking for money or stuff to blackmail him with. Then there was the question of what Akane and SHampoo did with his clothes.
The futon was always wet.
Akane always splashed him with that damned water bucket in the morning. After a while he noticed the futon was wet after he got back from school, he'd just thought that Kasumi got tired of cleaning it. Without wanting to he could hear the squishing noises coming from the guest room and he began to wonder.
And that weird smell.
Thanks to Genma-Panda he knew what a wet panda smelled like, more then any person should know actually. But when that wierd smell started cropping up in the guest-room, namely his own futon, he just thought that Genma got doused with something that wasn't water.
It seemed obvious now that he had heard the truth (words and some 'actions'). Not only had they used his clothes and the futon he slept on every night.....they had also used him. Hell, his enemies were kinder then that, atleast they announced their attacks before coming at him as well as their own twisted reason(s) for attacking.
Finally, after what seemed/felt like an eternity, the noises below stopped. Several minutes later Shampoo jumped out the window without a glance back. Then he heard the door to the guest-room open and close. Judging from his shadow it was noon, and pretty hot for this time of year. Despite that he shivered and just stared at the horizon, wondering, fearing what would come next. Then for the next hour Ranma calmed himself using the Soul of Ice technique, it was only partially successful.
Eventually Ranma got off the roof, but instead of going to the guestroom he walked out the front gate and started wondering around:
