Shikako/Kakashi AU-verse (a "Dreaming of Sunshine" recursive fanfic)

Summary:

Shikako and Kakashi - stumbling towards being in love edition (a recursive fanfic of Silver Queen's "Dreaming of Sunshine").

PS - best read in the "Entire work" mode.

Notes:

This is a recursive fanfiction (meaning fanfic written based on another fanfic) of a Naruto fanfic "Dreaming of Sunshine" by Silver Queen.

This ficbit was posted earlier in several pieces to the FF.net forum We're all just Dreaming of Sunshine, although I did some editing to make it read smoother. That... did not quite work out since the original posts include quite a bit of headcanon without which the story makes no sense - but which may make no sense without reading through the posts on forum threads for Recursive fanfiction and Kakashi/Shikako (all 3000+of them).

PS! Second chapter is the head canon chapter, no plot at all.

(See the end of the work for other works inspired by this one.)

Chapter 1: Shikabane-hime and Sharigan no Kakashi (or The Corpse Princess and Kakashi of the Sharigan)

Chapter Text

They mostly call him Copy Ninja – which is fitting, really, because in truth, the number of jutsu he has copied over his career has far surpassed one thousand. Most of them are not all that useful but he takes pleasure in copying and learning. There is a certain kind of pleasure in pure knowledge. After all – he can do it, so why not?

But sometimes they remember that he is one of the handful people known in all the generations that there are who has awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan. Without being born to the Uchiha legacy, without being trained in it. And then they whisper: Sharigan no Kakashi. Kakashi of the Sharigan.

She is called many things. The Nara girl. The Deer sage. The Forest Sage (because apparently people can't decide). The Shadow Sage (whispered breathlessly in remembrance of the time when the shadow of the Earth covered the Moon on her command).

But most often it is the name she gave herself. The words said in joke. Well, there are not many among ninja that can say they have named themselves. But yes, she has to agree that this one might be the most fitting. All in all – it is not a bad name to be remembered by.

Shikabane-hime.
The Corpse Princess.
