The Virus
"In hindsight, I should have realized it was all Mihoshi's fault." - Professor Washuu (in a speech given to the American CDC on day 783 of the 'Nerima-virus' pandemic.)
'The Virus' is a story about what goes wrong when we play with things we have no control of. It's a story that talks about life, chaos, and the mixture of the two. It's a story in which Tenchi, Keiichi, and Kunou all turn into girls.
Aaannnyyywayy... Here is the original 'Virus' story as posted to the FFML and several other writers takes on possible consequences of The Virus.
The Virus. The original virus story in which the Nerima Virus is unleashed on humanity by an improbable sequence of events and a seldom-thinking blonde Galaxy Policewoman.

Cold Water Date
Robert Haynie, aka Kenko, has started a Virus-based 'Epic' that centers around the Tendou dojo. For those who aren't familiar with Robert's work, he's the author of 'Girl Days' and 'Paragon', two of my favorite Ranma stories. He's a very talented author, so I recommend you give his stuff a try!
Adjusting - by Robert Haynie. "You know, it may have been hell of most of the planet at first, but the Nerima Virus may have been the best damn thing ever to happento me." - 'Adjusting in Nerima' and 'Adjusting in Juuban'
Cold Water Date - by Robert Haynie. "Oh, she'd come to terms with the curse before that-- but she'd certainly never been ATTRACTED to Ranma's female form. But now, ifhit with cold water, he WAS noticing her..." Cold Water Date continues the story Robert began in 'Adjusting'.

He suspected the whole world would have to deal with it; the change had spread like wildfire, with dangerously little warning to the populace."

According to Thryth: This is a Next Generation RPG with a twist. For those unfamiliar with the [...] fanfic, "The Virus," the basic premise is this.A virus Washu Hakubi was using was accidentally altered and unleashed by Mihoshi, and, after encountering Ranma Saotome, proceeded to infect the world with a communicable Jusenkyo gender flipping curse. And now you'd be playing the generation after the virus hit...
