There was one, where Genma dies and when Nadkoa learns that Soun only has

recall the title of the fic nor what happened.

"Ranko's Life" Chapter one, by Hitomi Ichinohei and "Ranko's Life S",
Chapter Two, by me.  HI is currently in revisions on her own version of
chapter two, so I am told.

In the end, it's not too different that what you've described as the
normal procedure.  However, I'd think that Genma and Soun would have to be
complete idiots to try to maintain the honor of their two schools by
marrying two boys, so I guess this is the most plausible extreme case.

Sure, I remember Ranko's Life.  However, in the case I was proposing, such 
extreme measures would hardly be needed.  After all, there's Nabiki available 
and everything.

Really, Ranko's Life has an _entirely_ different dynamic than the story I was 
talking about. I was thinking a story where not only are Ranma and Akane both 
boys, but the both _act_ like boys.  Force them to deal with each other from a 
non-romantic angle.
