Rules of Engagement
Author: Umiki
Summary: AU, very AU. If Leon had to marry D, there were a few rules that D will follow no matter what!
Reason for making this fic? Complete and utter sleep deprivition, reading Petshop of Horrors all over again (anime barely, barely, did it any justice), and realizing that I never saw any fics with this particular form of AU.
Hope you like it!

It was like watching a tennis match from hell.
Back and forth, back and forth. Every time one gained the upper hand the other player suddenly sprung a new move that pulled the rug from under the other. It had been going on for hours.
Though considering the prize…
"Really Detective, must you be so stubborn about this?"
"NO! Absolutely not! You're the one who wears a dress!"
"But Detective, it would be more appropriate."
"Do you know how hard it was to fend Jill off my back when she learned that I'm marrying you?! I barely escaped with my sanity and my pride!"
"Detective…"
"NOOOO! You can take that thing and wear it yourself!"
"Leon."
"…."
"If you feel that strongly about this Leon, I know a designer who takes custom orders. He will enjoy the challenge of creating your clothes. You don't have to wear the traditional bridal dress or red cheongsam, though it will have Chinese designs as agreed."
"….So long as it's not a dress."
"(sigh), if I had known that you were this serious about ignoring your born femininity my dear detective, I would have accosted the aid of Ms. Jill for advice on what boundaries would be acceptable for a woman such as yourself."
"Just because I hate dresses and all that girly shit doesn't mean that I ain't a woman D!"
"Your boorish mannerisms speak otherwise my dear detective."
"Don't start that again D! I've already been forced to learn how to drink tea like some nitty snob!"
"Excuse me!"
With a sigh, Tetsu turned from the raging couple to look at the only other human in the shop. "Your idiot of an older sister never learns."
*Sis loves D and he loves Sis. They just like to show it through fighting.* Chris told the totetsu with a happy smile, drawing his family in wedding costumes.
Tetsu snorted. "Which makes you wonder if they're going to spend their wedding night dancing or fighting."
*Dancing?*
"I'll tell you when you're older."

And there you have it. An AU where Leon Orcot is a WOMAN!
I claim the excuse of being sleep deprived.
I had fun at least making it. So much so that I've started an AU ficlist where Petshop of Horrors is transformed when Count D has to deal with a female Leon Orcot instead of a male one. It radically changes how the series goes. Not going to give any spoilers cause I myself don't know what the ending is yet. My writing style doesn't let me think that far ahead half the time.
Anyway, I hope you all liked this!
Chiao!
