In which I finally start posting the 70+ chapter katanashipping fic I have been agonizing over for the past year.

SUMMARY:

Usagi is visiting friends. In his husband's absence, Leo goes to grab some pizza. After all, it has been years since they last heard from most of their enemies. What could possibly go wrong? The answer, it turns out, is everything. And that's only the beginning...

Please see the tags and the top of each chapter for warnings.

Eternal thanks to my wonderful wife @battle-nexus for all her support in getting to this point, and to @mutated-green-things and @love-killed-the-superstar for being the best beta readers I could have asked for.

Are they lovers? Worse. They never got to be.

I love it when fan fiction writers are like: “ah shit, this was meant to be one part but I started writing it and now it has to be three”. Like the fanfic is happening to them and not being created by them.
