Summary
“As we both remember,” Kunikida started, and Dazai snickered, clearly reading this as a prepared speech. “When I started my current job, it caused some interpersonal difficulties in our relationship, namely in regards to sexual intimacy.”
Kunikida had accepted the job about a year and a half ago now, and it had kept him so busy the first four months that he and Dazai had hardly seen each other. Eventually, Kunikida’s workload had become more manageable, and he and Dazai talked some things out, made a few agreements and came to a few compromises, returning to a rhythm that worked for them. Though Dazai had whined at the time, it was clear that there was no lingering animosity or hard feelings. Still, Kunikida had to steel his nerves before this next line, hoping it would also result in, at the very least, a lack of animosity on Dazai’s part.
“During this time, I began experiencing a recurring fantasy involving you finding that intimacy with someone else.”
Or: Practically married Kunizai decide to try cucking, and invite Chuuya to be their bull. He accepts, and it doesn't pan out quite the way Kunikida expected.

Summary
Look. Chuuya was well, well aware that life loved to throw curveballs. He’d dealt with more than he could count on all his fingers and toes in the last decade alone. He’d become comfortable with them, to some extent, felt he was good at handling them.
Until he was propositioned by his high school ex and said ex’s current husband.
Of course Dazai would have it in him to be able to catch Chuuya properly off guard after all these years. And of course Kunikida would be so easy to fall for. Of course, the second you think you’ve found your footing, something sweeps it out from under you.
Or; Now that everyone's feelings are out in the open, Chuuya, Dazai, and Kunikida are ready to start building their new relationship. The first month or so of that has plenty of ups, like their first group date and their Christmas eve gift exchange, and several downs, like a disastrous work Christmas party and the way certain acquaintances react to the development. A lot of changes means a lot of work, but, despite the stumbling blocks, the three of them are willing to put in that effort.
