Her first, immediate response is to open her mouth and deny it all. Because it just-- they just-- that's not how it works. That's not how any of it works. If a boy likes another boy, they're just... misguided. A pervert. Confused. And if a girl likes a girl... well, who wouldn't like other girls more than boys? Boys are awful and dangerous and only want one thing.
But Connie keeps on talking and no. No. This can't be right. Ranma hated it so much when boys hit on him as a girl, because he was a boy and-- and--
It can't be right. It just can't be.
Akane starts shaking her head before Connie blurts out the last part of it-- and then she gets very, very still.
