Forcibly United is a fanfiction by Gaming Ikari which is a crossover between Black Lagoon and Ranma ½.

The story begins when Happosai decides that he needs better control over Ranma and uses something called the Bracers of Jian to control him. Naturally, he happens to use this right as Ranma and Ryouga are fighting, leaving both of them irrevocably chained together. Both boys learn that, no matter what they try, they can't move more than thirty feet from one another. Neither are happy about this.

Then Cologne tells them that she knows someone who can help, and arranges for her nephew Chang to house the boys and make sure the various criminals in Roanapur don't tear them alive. The first thing Ranma does on arriving in Roanapur is call Revy a clumsy tomboy.
