Hello there! I stumbled upon one of your shikako nara stories(which was pretty compelling. And dark. And tasty.) Would you terribly mind shedding some light on this character for a complete novice?

Oh! Hello! Wow, usually it’s the other way around–people know Shikako Nara and then find me and my recursive fic–so this is cool! I’m pretty pleased that those recursive ficlets are compelling enough to read through even without knowing who Shikako is, so thank you!

Shikako Nara is the main character of Silver Queen’s “Dreaming of Sunshine,” an SI!OC Naruto fic in which the author is Shikamaru Nara’s twin sister. You can read it on FF.net here–or if you’re more the podfic type, you can listen to it here on MixCloud. I also help run the tumblr page for it, @dosbysilverqueen, which includes a multitude of resources for fans.

Hope that helped and welcome to the fandom! 🙂
