[Video]

[There is a rather disgruntled looking Ukyo squinting at the screen. From the way it seems to be bouncing a little, it's pretty clear that she's on the move. After a moment of checking to see if it's on, she speaks up.]

It's finally happened. Stupidity finally became contagious and that jackass passed it on t' me!

[With a huff, she glances away to the road in front of her.]

That's the only explanation I got. I had t' have ended up catching his bad sense of direction or else I wouldn't be wanderin' around some strange place, right?

[Well. There was the fact that she could have been kidnapped, which was more likely. But that option isn't any less irritating than the one she thought up initially. Ukyo had been kidnapped before and it was incredibly annoying. The background shifts in back of Ukyo as she turns a corner and heads down one of the streets.]

So. Do any of you have any advice? I take it we're all in the same boat here. I think I could use a little right now.

[Action-- Feel free to run into Ukyo around Genessia City and the surrounding area! She's exploring and looking into the buildings.]

Since when have you cooked?

[You're talking to your best friend here, Ranma. She knows that his skills are very limited in that department.

She takes in a breath and sighs it out.]

Well, if there's an extra room, why don't I stay with the two of you? That way, I can cook for everyone.

[wildhorse]

Since the old man decided he couldn't even be bothered to boil water. [Training, he said. Laziness, Ranma replied. Somehow Ranma always seemed to lose that argument, though.]

And, uh...all we got's a two-bedroom. [No way he's even thinking about sharing a room with Akane. He's seen how she sleeps.]

[spatulas]

[You're making things very, VERY difficult here, Ranma.]

I could share a room with you! We are engaged and all.

[Yeah. That'll go over well with Akane.]

[wildhorse]

Are you kiddin'? No way!

[...that came out wrong. He let out a sigh, took a deep breath, then started over.]

You forgotten Akane?

[spatulas]

[Why is Akane the source of all of her problems? Ukyo sighs sharply and shakes her head.]

I getcha. But I'm still going to make sure you don't get poisoned. Where are you guys staying?

[wildhorse]

[Oh no, he knew where this was going. And yet he was powerless to stop it; it wasn't the kind of thing he could lie about, after all.]

It's Stone Ridge. Should I get a housewarming gift ready?

[He didn't sound totally disgruntled, at least. If nothing else it was good to have his friend around, even though he knew that nothing good could come of what she was up to.]

[spatulas]

Wouldn't be a bad idea, Ranchan!

[Hey. He should just be glad it's just Ukyo. At least she wouldn't try to drug anyone.]

It's better to stick together until we're able to get out of this place, anyway.

[wildhorse]

Best I can do at this time of night is convenience store sushi.

[Also, he could actually joke around with Ukyo without that dancing-through-Jusenkyo sensation.]

[spatulas]

Convenience store sushi? You're hopeless.

[Despite what she says, she's grinning.]

[wildhorse]

Cup ramen?

[Hey, we're working on a budget here.]

[spatulas]

I think that's even worse than the sushi, Ranchan!

[She can't help but grin, though.]
