(normal)
Splash.
"Stupid old man!"
Another normal morning at the Tendo household begins.
Kasumi preparing breakfast, humming any old tune that came to mind.
Soun reading the morning paper.
Akane arriving back from her morning jog.
And Nabiki just waking up.
Oh, and of course the normal morning fight between father and son.
"You're getting sloppy boy!"
"Oh, yeah? Maybe I wouldn't be sloppy if you hadn't eating my dinner last night!"
"Humph! Ungrateful son! After everything I've done for you!"
"You've done nothing but get me in trouble old man!"
And once more the koi in the pond learn what it's like to have hairballs.
The wet red head and panda made their way back to the house just as the food was being put on the table. Along with a kettle.
After changing, everyone took their respected place at the table.
After a few moments of silence Kasumi noticed that her fathers study of the furiously eating Ranma had come near its end. Soon he would be asking questions best left unanswered for the moment.
"R"
"Akane, Ranma?"
The two in question looked up and regarded the housechild with interest.
"I have an errand to run at Dr. Tofu's office today. Would you two go to the market after school for me and fetch something for dinner?"
"Huh? Uh, yeah, sure Kasumi."
"Of course! I can pick up some ingredients for a new dish I want to try making."
The table minus one promptly turned green.
"Oh. That would be…nice Akane. Thank you, you two."
She glanced at the clock.
"Oh! You three had best prepare to leave. You do have school today."
"Yeah. For once I'd like not to arrive late."
She cast a quick glare in Ranma's direction.
"Hey! Come one! It's not like I ask for all that crap to happen to me."
They both headed to pack their bags, arguing all the way up the stairs.
"You know… If I thought clearly in the mornings I probably could have figured out a way to make money off of this."
