A '''reality crossover''' is a ''Daria'' fanfic in which one or more characters enter the "real world" that we know, possibly meeting real-life fans, fanfiction authors, fan artists, or even the ''Daria'' show's creators in [[real person fiction]]. A reality crossover might also be a story in which the ''Daria'' characters are revealed to be actors who take part in the TV series. The series was well known for having [[Daria]] and [[Jane]] take partappear in [[off-canon canon]] situations in which they either appear in the real world or else have knowledge of it and their existence as cartoon characters.
 
It is possible to consider a reality crossover as the exact opposite of [[real-person fiction]]. In the former, Daria or one of her cohorts appears in the real world; in the latter, a real-life celebrity appears in a [[Dariaverse]].
