For as Ranma Saotome had just gotten up from some strange dreams, this was just the side effect of what had occurred to him yesterday!
Yesterday Kodachi had gotten a recipe from a genuine spellbook. One that would make a loveslave out of the person who ate it, and one of the ingredients was the hair of the one to be enslaved to!
Of course it was an old form of Latin, Kodachi was not really up on Latin-based languages due to being Japanese when enough people who spoke Latin-based languages had trouble with Latin, and she screwed up.
Yes, you guessed it. The hair was of the person to be enslaved to the drinker.
As soon as Ranma ate the beanjam bun containing the potion, Kodachi fell into a deep sleep. Whether the potion worked as advertised was yet to be seen.
Shampoo had overheard Kodachi, saw Crazy Ribbon Girl pass out, and snagged the spellbook.
It should be noted that Shampoo was not the greatest at languages either. She DID have one clever moment and fixed her first batch as a test. One stun bomb later, she poured a batch of potion with a hair from Mousse down Akane's throat. When Akane had gotten up a few minutes later and not shown any change, Shampoo came to the conclusion she'd gotten something wrong - made a second and different batch, used one of Akane's hairs. When the potion changed color she guessed she'd done it write and made "too too delicious" fruit juice that she "had free sample of - they try to get Cat Cafe to carry product. So what you think, Ranma?" Of course she didn't notice on this third batch that she hadn't properly cleaned it since the second batch, so the Akane hair and the Shampoo hair were mixed together.
Not that Shampoo got either formula right, but it ended up with Shampoo and Akane taking long naps that afternoon.
Naturally Mousse had gotten curious, found the book last left by Shampoo, and quickly began making a potion that would make Ranma lose all interest in girls. This horrific potion would turn the fires of Ranma's sexual passion to absolute zero. One drop would turn Happosai into a eunuch!
Naturally, Mousse got the ingredients completely messed up and hit the wrong target. Tatewaki Kuno wondered why this foreigner wearing a ceramic mask kept calling him Saotome and was forcing some slimy potion down his throat. The kendoist was eventually able to free himself from whatever the strange fellow planned.
When Mousse finally found Ranma and tried to force the potion down Ranma's throat, Ranma was feeling a little bit groggy and got sprayed when he started beating the royal snot out of Mousse. Of course, Mousse's head was still ringing from being beaten on by a wooden practice sword - so that tended to even the odds.
Finally Ranma came to a bowl of curry that Akane had made from an instant packet, not realizing that Gosunkugi had placed a potion of his own in it. By itself the potion would have fizzled much like Gosunkugi's dreams of being married to Akane. The potion had been sold to Gosunkugi and was the opposite of a love potion, which is not to say it was a hate potion. It was a Break-Love potion, for people who wanted to fall out of love. Naturally, when Gosunkugi had heard of it, he'd thought of Ranma.
There are several types of drug interactions, whether you're talking pharmaceuticals or magical.
