The Redhead Is Just As Sane As Kuno

The naked redhead mirrored what Ranma was doing, sitting across the table from him in the space available. Having Kuno's mind, now, her soprano voice immediately began speaking, "And yet the nightmare continues! Does the beauteous Pigtailed Girl have no respite from your carnal demands of her!?"

Akane blinked. She was about to ask What was happening, when she realized the redhaired girl was Naked!! "Ranma! She's this way because of your carnal demands on her!!?"

"It's not what you think!" Nabiki's fist hit the tabletop. It came very close to grazing the redhead's boob closest to her.

"Oh, my, let me make the introductions," Kasumi said. "This is Ranma's genie..."

"Hello! My name is Mihoshi! 'glad to meet you!"

"...and Kuno, you know, only not in this body," continued Kasumi with the introductions.

"I've been cured!" Ranma tried to happily tell her.

"But not of the girl," Nabiki said, looking at Kuno.

"Kuno?? -No!! That can't be!!"

"Do not be deceived by their conspiracy to induce madness, wondrous Diana!" warned the redheaded girl, getting up on a foot and knee. "Forgive your family for they are no doubt under the spell of this treacherous sorcerer, Saotome!"

"Oh, no! It can be," Akane groaned.

"Uh, Kuno-baby," Nabiki said, "what's going through, excuse the expression, your mind? You do realize you're not in your own body? You're a girl, now."

"Nay, mercenary Nabiki, It is but an illusion perpetrated by the sorcerer in order to mock my pure heart with his vulgar display of the flame-haired Venus! By robbing me of the sense of awareness I have of the superbly fit and handsome body I inhabit, the dabbler in psychological warfare knows I would transfer my body-awareness into the body I am otherwise most aware of. -I apologize, Akane Tendo, it would appear that you are, indeed, second in my heart."

"Luckily for me." And unlucky for Ranma.

"Uh, huh." It was a challenge for the logical Nabiki to make sense of what Kuno had said. "So, you think you exist separately from the "Pigtailed Girl", the evidence be damned."

"I can relate to that," Ranma muttered. He had found many tricks of the mind to keep his being a girl from contaminating his manliness.

"May I ask a question?" Mihoshi asked, raising a hand. "If he hasn't seen her body in a mirror, how does he know he is in ("I am not in..."), then how does he know whose body it is? Has he seen her naked much?"

Akane, Ranma and Kasumi's eyes turn to Nabiki. Nabiki didn't let their looks bother her. "A girl has to make a living."
