The Bard was curious. What were Shadow and Rowan arguing about over there? The two seemed to be having a heated debate; every now and then one or the other would gesture toward the pool where scenes from Ranma Saotome's life were being shown.

Quietly he crept closer to hear what they were saying.

"No way. You've finally lost your marbles, Rowan. How in the Nine Hells did you come up with that half-baked notion anyway?"

"If you look at all the evidence, it makes perfect sense."

"Coincidence."

"Then let's go over it again, shall we?"

"Grumble, grumble"

"Clue #1: He's irresistible to beautiful women, and he always gets the girl."

"So?"

"Clue #2: He's got powerful male enemies that are always out to get him."

"And your point is?"

"Clue #3: He's always got a trick up his sleeve to get out of a sticky situation."

"Oh, come on, that doesn't count!"

"Clue #4: No matter how bad things look, he always wins in the end."

"Technically…"

"Clue #5: Ranma doesn't look a thing like Genma."

"…"

"Clue #6: Name one other person who gets into as much trouble as he does."

"…Okay, you've made your point. I still find it hard to believe, though. Ranma as 007's son…"

The Bard's eyes widened. Then he thought about it for a moment.

"You know… that actually makes perfect sense…"

Disclaimer: Ranma ½ and its characters and settings belong to Rumiko Takahashi, Shogakukan, Kitty, and Viz Video. James Bond and associated characters, situations, and settings belong to Ian Fleming and his estate.

This idea is, although someone may have written it earlier. I'm not too sure about that. Scary, what you start to think about after midnight, ne?
