Hark! Hark! I have wares to peddle!
…
Well, sort of. It’s a group effort.
I’m an artist on Crossroads! A zine for the Road To Nowhere fanfiction/fandom. Pictured above is a sneak peak of my short comic adapting the scene where Katoshi decides he’s going to live with Aizawa and Yamada!
The zine contains art, fics, and merchandise from a bunch of other cool and epic creatives that you can own, physically! To hold! In your own two hands!
Head over to @rtnanthology to order your copy before preorders end on December 31st!
Also I would like to say thank you to @aerugonian for writing such an amazing fic. this comic wouldn’t exist without your banger prose, voice, and character motivations

"It can't be," a man in green breathes. "After all these years? Here?"
Kakashi palms a kunai, watching him warily. No one here seems like much of a threat, but there are way too many unknowns to take any chances. He lightens his tone when he speaks. "Ah, it seems I've gotten a bit lost. Mind telling me where we are?"
The soldier who'd initially shot fire at him raises a shaking hand, pointing at Kakashi. "I saw you. You bent both earth and air."
The crowd watches him with growing recognition. Murmurs turn to shouts, and to Kakashi's bemusement, a war cry starts echoing.
"The Avatar has returned!"
--
In which Kakashi wakes up in the middle of a battlefield before Aang is found, gets mistaken for the Avatar, and rolls with it.
#NEW FIC#it was supposed to be a oneshot#but now the draft is 10k and counting#so multichapter it is#i'm not kidding when i say i've been talking about this premise for more than 4 years#but it took me forever to figure out how to turn the joke into an actual story#hopefully it's entertaining

Did you ever expect your RTN au to become such a big universe? How did it happen? I'm really curious!
I definitely didn't expect it to take off the way it did! It's one of those things where I sometimes sit back, really look at the numbers, and feel a sense of pleasant shock all over again.
For reference, there are just over 100 fics in/bookmarked to the Road to Nowhere Extended Universe collection, a mind-boggling number of artworks posted online or exclusively to the Discord (link here or in the fic notes for anyone interested in joining us!!), and an additional 175k words of RtN-related snippets compiled in the server that haven't been published on Ao3. I can't count the number of times I've read and reread fics/snippets and scrolled through the artwork because I love it all so much. There are so many talented people who've contributed to the universe and I'm lucky to count many of them as my friends now.
As for how it happened... it's hard to say for sure, but I'm guessing it was a combination of a few factors, starting with the way Katoshi works as a character. He's not an OC, but he can kind of function like one: writing Katoshi is different than writing purely Kakashi or Hitoshi, and he even comes with his own unique visual design. It makes it easy to create something that's distinctly RtN instead of vaguer ideas or tropes.
The server has an RtN-AU channel I created for people to go nuts with whatever ideas they wanted to, and I was pretty open from the start that anyone's welcome to write recursive works if they wanted to. My now good friend @asteroid-duck took me up on that, wrote an RtN gift fic for my birthday (that I still reread regularly), and things took off from there! I think it helps that there are a lot of encouraging people in the server that will cheer you on if you're thinking of writing something, and now there's an established audience you can write for.
My attitude towards inspired works is probably another thing, lol. I actively encourage people to create recursive works and have an open policy around it: I'm not going to police what people want to make, I'm not gonna get upset or nitpick if I personally disagree with someone's headcanon or characterization, and I don't expect everything to cater to my own preferences. Sure, I enjoy it most when works include things I like, but I'll just click out if it's not for me.
Anyway, if you're not in the server, you should come check it out! It's a pretty positive and supportive space, and has one of the biggest collections of Kakashi and crossover fans that I'm aware of.
#asks#road to nowhere#if you know those feral shaking/inhaling food memes#that's me with rtn recursives#every time the related works count on ao3 grows i get a seratonin boost#it doesn't really feel real that something i made inspired so many amazing works#everyone is so HIP and COOL#now i should stop procrastinating and go do some writing sprints#Kakashi in ATLA... hopefully upcoming soon

Fanfiction of fanfiction is so fucking fun actually. Especially when you read it both without reading the original fic or the original media. Like. Have I ever read or watched naruto? Nope! Have I ever read Silver Queen's dreaming of sunshine? Double nope! Don't want to actually I have interest in the negative degrees to actually sit down and read it. However, do I read fics about our queen Nara Shikako fucking shit up? Absoloutley! They're so fun I have learned to love her!
Same for Road to Nowhere: have I read it? Nope! Will I read fics about and or set in it? Can, have, and will, babyyy
There's something so fun and fascinating about media spawning media that then spawns media. Fandom within fandoms, or fandom³, if u will
You have to cultivate such a specific fandom biome for it to happen naturally. Sometimes you'll stumble into it without even realizing, read one or two fics about fics before realizing they're spawned from the same place. It's so cool!!
