Soun's last comment... I am not sure if he is just going with the joke or is serious. I suspect its the first, but still...
Storm trooper effect works against good guys as well.
No matter how strong you are, there is always a teenager able to beat you without breaking a sweat.
A blind Paladin can only hear half truths
A deaf Paladin can only see half truths
Either way the Paladin is a berserker

“If you know Ranma, do you know the others?” Artemis asked, hovering protectively between the grey cat and Genma.
“I do not.” Diana answered.
“Well, I’m Akane and this is my older sister Kasumi. The nice lady crushing uncle Genma’s hand is Ranma’s mother, Nodoka.” Akane introduced helpfully.
“The talking cats being interesting and all-- but where were you?” Nabiki interrupted before her sister could go any further with her cute animal fascination. Though, at least this time it wasn’t some endlessly squealing mindless piglet she was doting on.
“We were out having a very nice dinner with a few of Ranma’s friends. I’m sorry I didn’t mention it earlier. I hope you were able to get by without me.” Kasumi answered her question helpfully.
“And where was that?” She continued.
“Just a little place I found a few months ago.” Ranma volunteered before Kasumi could answer.
“Very strict dress code.” Akane gestured down to the gown adorning her form.
Nabiki simply stared at her sister in disbelief before shifting her eyes over to Ranma who was wearing the same red silk shirt and black pants that the gender cursed teen prefered to wear. “Daddy, Akane is lying to me, make her stop.” She whined in her best ‘get Akane in trouble’ voice. A tone she had honed from a lifetime of extorting her younger sister.
“Be nice to your sister.” Soun absently parented, too engrossed in comforting Genma who was still slumped over in pain.
“I, too, doubt this dress code.” Diana declared before suddenly twisting her head towards Artemis. “Is any of this true, father?”
Artemis looked away evasively. “Isn’t it past your bedtime?”
Diana appeared to pale even through her grey fur. “But it’s only nine thirty, at home I can stay up till ten! Or eleven if it’s the weekend!” (8)
“It’s been a long day, would you like to sleep in my room?” Kasumi asked the feline while hiding a yawn behind her hand.
The kitten rapidly looked between Artemis, Ranma, and Chibi-Usa before nodding her head and leaping up into Kasumi’s waiting arms. “I would like that, Kasumi-san.”
“Usa, Isn’t it time for you to go to bed as well?” Nodoka asked the pink haired child.
Chibi-Usa’s red eyes widened in surprise at becoming the center of attention. “Maybe.”
“You’ll need the sleep for tomorrow.” Genma warned ominously with a groan.
“Fine.” Usa pouted, kicking at imaginary dirt on the floor, and holding her cat shaped toy to her chest.
“Come on, you can help show our guest to his room.” Ranma told Usa while picking up the white cat to leave with Kasumi.
“Do you do room service too?” Artemis asked Chibi-Usa as they left. “I would simply adore some tuna before I retire for the evening.” The male cat added in a teasing tone.
“I think I see why Ranma likes him.” Akane rolled her eyes as Usa trailed after the two. “Oh no, I forgot my homework-- and my school uniform!”
“I want a snack too!” The little girl demanded, tugging repeatedly on Ranma’s shirt.
Nabiki watched as her sisters, Ranma, and a pair of cats left the room. She already suspected that something strange was going on and now she had further proof that she was way out of the loop. Normally she didn’t care too much, preferring to be on the sidelines manipulating or just enjoying the show. But since being attacked by those monsters, she got the impression that being a passive bystander wasn’t the best course to follow.
‘I’ll start trying to dig info from that kitten, she seems more gullible than the one Ranma is being clingy with.’
“I do not.” Diana answered.
“Well, I’m Akane and this is my older sister Kasumi. The nice lady crushing uncle Genma’s hand is Ranma’s mother, Nodoka.” Akane introduced helpfully.

The next morning
Walking to school with her sister Nabiki and Ranma, Akane paused to look down and keep stock of where the two cats were walking along next to her fiance. The grey kitten Diana was eagerly looking at everything with interest but was refraining from leaving her father, Artemis’ side. She didn’t know how to react to the cute image of the two felines but it seemed rude to treat them like normal cats.
Since she really didn’t know how to treat cats like people, Akane focused on the fact that her sister was changing her morning routine. She really did enjoy that her sister appeared to want to spend more time with her. But on this day it would have been nice for Nabiki to have left earlier so she could speak freely with Ranma.
It had been difficult for her fall asleep last night because she had been so excited by the trip to Sailor Theia’s castle. ‘Going into space, visiting a magical space castle, and meeting more senshi-- what a night!’ She giddily glanced in Ranma’s direction, the black haired boy walking next to her.
‘And since I still have to get back my other uniform, I can make him to take me again!’ Akane almost demanded that they take the day off so she could explore more but was able to control herself. ‘Maybe I can finally convince Ranma to tell me more about her life as Sailor Theia.’
The high pitched voice of Diana interrupted her staring at her oblivious fiance. “Akane-san, isn’t it impolite to stare at Ranma-sama so intently?”
Instantly Akane looked away as Ranma was alerted to gaze. “I wasn’t staring!” She protested loudly, too embarrassed to point out that Diana shouldn’t really be talking while out on the street, even if no one was really around to overhear.
“Oh? Was Akane making come hither glances at Ranma?” Nabiki asked teasingly, causing her to blush, and sputter out denials.
“No, more like how you were, as though you were a gull eagerly waiting for some food to drop.” Diana explained in complete seriousness. Akane’s jaw dropped along with her sisters at being described in that way.
“That’s normal for Nabiki.” Ranma shrugged, unconcerned by the kittens remark.
“Diana, it’s impolite to call your hosts, gulls.” Artemis gently chastised his daughter, the kitten immediately looking like she had just been chewed out for hours.
Stopping suddenly, Diana prostrating herself before Akane and Nabiki. “I apologize for my rude remark, please forgive me.”
“Aw! You’re so adorable!” Akane couldn’t contain herself anymore and gathered up the furry ball of cute to hold to her chest. “Of course you’re forgiven.”
“Yay!” Diana squeaked and nuzzled her cheek.
“Your kid’s a pretty good manipulator.” Nabiki told Artemis, sounding impressed.
“She makes friends so easily.” Artemis raised a paw to wipe away an imaginary tear.
Akane gave her sister a dark look. “Not everyone has an ulterior motive.”
“I’m pretty sure she has some motive.” Ranma crossed his arms. “Cuddles being one of them.”
“A dastardly plot that only a cat would perpatrate.” Nabiki joined in on the Senshi’s little joke about Diana having secret motives. “Most impressive.”
“Don’t you have school to get to?” Diana asked with a small purr to her voice. “It’s important to be on time.”
Akane nodded emphatically and put a little spring in her step to continue down the street. Her enthusiasm to get to school lasted only until she saw that a large moving truck was parked next to Doctor Tofu’s old clinic. “I didn’t know anyone was moving in.” She remarked, watching as a couple men were pulling a heavy oven out of the truck onto the liftgate in the back.
“Obol Cafe?” She asked, reading the english name printed on a decorative sign installed above the door. “What’s Obol mean?” She turned towards the rest of the group for an answer.
Ranma shrugged his shoulders. “Who knows?”
“I wonder where Doctor Tofu went to, he left so suddenly.” She squeezed Diana a little tighter. “Didn’t even tell anyone.”
“Yea that was weird, but it’s nice not getting maimed every time I walk by.” Ranma shivered at the memory of one such instance where Tofu’s obsession with Kasumi had resulted in severe bodily harm.
“No wonder you two are always late, you’ll stop and have conversations for anything you see.” Nabiki shook her head, ignoring the work being done.
‘I guess we do get distracted a lot.’ She admitted to herself, resuming her walk to school. Noticing the slight weight of Diana in her arms, she was reminded of her pet pig. “Ranma, when P-chan gets back you better not pick on him again.” She told her fiance suddenly.
“Huh? Where did that come from?” He asked in confusion.
“I’m just giving you fair warning that I don’t want to see you being mean to him.” She sniffed and turned up her nose. “I thought you were better than that, imagine being so petty as to pick on a little pig.”
“Alright, alright.” Ranma put his hands up in defeat before freezing in his tracks.
“Ranma, what are you doing?” She asked, noticing that her Senshi fiance wasn’t moving.
“Isn’t that Hotaru?” Artemis asked, making Akane also freeze up. Slowly turning back towards the school gates, her eyes confirmed that the dark violet haired girl who had threatened her last night was approaching them.
“Good morning.” Hotaru greeted cheerfully, wearing a Furinkan school uniform.
“Good morning, Hotaru-sama.” Diana happily leapt from Akane’s arms to pad over to stand near Hotaru.
“Good morning.” Ranma suddenly broke out of his shock to return the girl’s greeting with equal cheer. “What’s with the uniform?”
“Is that the one I left last night?” Akane asked accusingly while hiding behind Ranma for protection.
“Of course not, silly.” The dark violet haired girl giggled to herself. “I picked this up before the party last night so I’d be ready for class in the morning.” Hotaru grabbed the sides of her skirt and did a little curtsy. “Much more flattering colors than my first schools uniform.”
“You transferred?” Ranma asked with barely restrained glee.
“Setsuna-mama even managed to find a nice house near yours so I don’t have to commute so far.” Hotaru added.
“What?!” Akane exclaimed in shock.
“Well isn’t this interesting?” Nabiki’s voice purred in absolute delight.

I can just see it now, Ranma going the entire school day with Artie on his shoulder... Everyone would stop and stare... When he is asked to leave it outside he has plausable deniability because his fear of cats is common knowledge at the school and if he says there is no cat, well they do not want him to fall into the neko-ken... lol

Stars episode 7 or 173 overall. The girls are trying to see the Starlights but show up late and there's a crowd. Such a horrible horrible season for all the unneeded changes they made but like SuperS it had some cute moments buried.

Funny but the cats are only there to see the way to school for the fanclub meeting later. Will be hanging out with Kasumi or Nodoka for the rest of the day until then. Have to squeeze in Genma thinking that Nodoka is cheating on him when she starts talking about how nice it is for Ranma to have a manly influence like Artemis in his life.
Also no way they get through the school day if either of them are there. Hinako would never leave.

Technically it's going to be chapter 5 for the next one, I chopped up chapter 3 because at this point if I had left them together it'd be a 30k chapter.
It's almost time for Usagi to finally get her entrance. Rei/Makoto will have to wait their turns.

I remember one fanfic where Ranma got a cat advisor. He somehow learned to see it as a squirrel -- a rather unusual squirrel. But that wouldn't work here. They'd just tell him to put his squirrel outside.

I have seen a few variations of this actually. I am redoing one of mine that connects Mao with Rabbits, but each needs to be added manually...

Probably when I figure out in what wretched horrible school Chibi-Usa will need to find herself. As though Nodoka would continue to just overlook her staying home all the time. 900 years old or no!
