What would be the most crack crossover for Dreaming of Sunshine?
I mean, our disbelief is well and truly suspended on the mystical action and magic jutsu part. (I mean, it's Naruto. Talking pet animals, secret underground fighting ring, having radios but somehow still traveling largely by cart across unfinished roads.) Shikako could probably do just about anything with the power of math and seals, (i.e. Shikabane-hime and all the situations we've put her in.) DOS also does slice of life/contemporary fiction really well. (i.e. the Kunoichi club, workplace comedy in Intel with Aoba, realistic family drama with the Naras.)
One of the great things DOS does is explain why things are the way that they are. We see Shikako learn and struggle alongside her peers. She feels like a real person, with real problems. (Have to get myself and my friends strong enough to fight Madara and the Akatsuki when they come for the Tailed Beasts. Can't let Danzo find out. Not strong enough or smart enough to figure out the perfect plan to save the Uchihas by myself.)
Literally anywhere you pop the cast of DOS in, they either find the good in the world and beat the stuffing out of the bad guys, or they make friends through the power of kindness, blowing people's minds, and being insane.
So what would be the most crack crossover to yeet Shikako and co. into?
Like an actual crossover as in they are the same people with the same background and abilities or would they adapt into the universe if it were a fusion style?
Because if taken as is, I imagine the most crack crossover would be, like, The Bear or Abbott Elementary where their extremely powerful abilities/fighting prowess doesn't really matter? Something set in our extremely mundane world, but in a hyper niche industry/part of it.
It's about as fish out of water as you can put specifically Shikako in, since I imagine she's the reason they're in the other universe to begin with.
In the comments of my DOS fic "There and Back Again" which is a story where Shikako writes down in publishes a bunch of the stories that she remembers from her original life, someone commented that it would be interesting if somebody who read those republishing's got reincarnated into the original world, which I think is an equally unhinged idea, that frankly I'm shocked I never thought about before.
