Phoney said something along the lines of Shampoo's book warping her
brain:

I say that even when engrossed with *ahem* that kind of stuff,
one doesn't throw away his/her basic nature.  You say that you're 
not sure about writing a lemon about this, and some people here 
have agreed and offered suggestions.  Fine.  That's great, but
it doesn't mean that those people are drooling hentai's for wanting
to read lemons, and it doesn't imply that you're a drooling
hentai either.  It just means that you and they appreciate
*ahem* descriptive writing.  If they can read lemons and go away with
the feeling that "Yes, I've read a lemon, but I'm not going to 
do those things" then Akane's sudden *need* to seduce Ranma away

>from Shampoo is totally and irreversibly out of canon and 

against her characterization.  Perhaps if it were a "magical" book,
then I could understand her *need* but you never said it was.

Well...uh...Akane is highly impressionable? ^_^ [backs into corner]

Maybe it's time to make the book magical ^_^ (perhaps Shampoo try
to get Ranma to read it and become drooling hentai?  hmm...that
would make the story into a different fanfic...)

besides, Akane decided to go all the way with full speed ahead *cough*
when she decided that ranma pays more attention to shampoo and ukyo
because they are "sensual."  and so, with the same ferocity that
akane takes ukyo on in the last manga i got, she takes to this
so she can stand a chance against shampoo. (all this about
ranma paying attention to shampoo and ukyo, as well as having to
keep up with shampoo, is all in her mind, of course.)

[hoping FFurious will eat this one up ^_^]
