Some day, this will be a "Last.fm/NetFlix/Amazon for web fiction" (both original and fanfiction) where you can search across many different hosting sites or rate what you've read and get recommendations. However, life keeps throwing more urgent projects my way, so I don't know when it'll be ready.

Love, Chapter 9Feet padded to the ground behind her, and Saturn turned, bringing the Glaive down low. Ranma ducked lower to have it pass overhead, missing an ear by less than a centimetre. He flipped onto his back, and when Saturn brought the weapon down again, he actually caught the blade in his hands, offered MIstress Saturn a cheeky smile, then pushed off again, taking the Glaive with him.
"Give that back!" Saturn snarled.
"Oh come on," Ranma chidded, "Surely I taught you better than this, Saturn. I mean, weapons? A battle between warriors is fought with the greatest weapons of all! Hands, feet - body parts, y'know?"
"I am stronger than you!"
"Oh, sure, but you're stupid."
"Stupid?"
"Yeah," Ranma countered, twirling the Glaive around and testing its weight in his hand, gazing appreciatively at the reflected pattern of light on the blade as it spun. "I mean, ya know, you had me convinced you were some evil bitch now. For a little bit. Like, half a minute. And this Yoshihiro, he's using you. I know that. I guess you're not quite stupid enough to not know that."
Saturn's feet thumped deeper into the ground as she grew ever more angry, and power flowed from her freely, creatinh a visible aura around her body. "I'm his new General," she replied, finally, voice tight.
"Nah... see, that's not true, even," Ranma said, tossing the Glaive back to Saturn. She caught it in one hand, spun it behind her back in a ready-posture Ranma had taught her with bamboo sticks. "He doesn't want another General. Especially not one of your power. 'Cause, he can't trust you. By definition, he *has* to be stronger than his Generals... and you're stronger than him. What if you wanna take over? He can't stop you. And if he could, you could blow up the world."
"Why does this mean I'm stupid?" An evil glare.
"Oh, no reason, really. Bad guys are always just stupid. It's like a natural law or somethin'."
The smirk did it. Mistress Saturn gave an inarticulate roar of anger, and sped at Ranma. He dodged, easily, and she pummelled through a wall, into the street beyond, and into a house on the other side of that before she checked her charge and turned. Ranma stood in the street, smirking more. It was that arrogant smirk Saturn had seen often as Hotaru, and even as Sailor Saturn, the smirk that Ranma gave an enemy who was defeated and just didn't know it yet.
