RJ is a {{WesternAnimation/Zootopia}} fanfic by [[https://www.fanfiction.net/~berserker88 Berserker88]], best known among Zootopia fans for [[Fanfic/BorntoBeWilde Born to Be Wilde]], written as part of the "What If...?" Collaboration.
After being told that he shouldn't have become a cop during a routine drug bust, Nick sweats over the implications despite having shrugged them off on prior occasions. He fears where he could've ended up if he had never met Judy, speculating that he would've just spiraled deeper and deeper into the world of crime. Why is this only now weighing so heavily on him? Because with the PIXAR machine, he can now see for himself WhatCouldHaveBeen.
Enter the specially crafted simulation "RJ", in which Nick plays "Reynard Junior", an ambitious new crime lord who is just about to secure his place as the new head honcho of Mr. Big's organization, while Judy plays a PrivateDetective tasked by the ZPD to stop him before he can solidify his place in the criminal underworld. Seems like a daunting task that could put her, and everyone she knows in danger, but hey, it's just a simulation. Right?

!!What part of 'I control freaking TVTropes' did you not understand?:
*BigBad: Reynard Junior is this for the simulation, though is more of a co-protagonist for the story. Doubly so when it's revealed that [[spoiler:he is self-aware and intends to supplant the real Nick, kill Judy, and take over Nick's life, making him the actual big bad after all.]]
*CatchPhrase: RJ has "Crazy like a fox.", which he'll say whenever someone calls him, or anything he does crazy.
*GrandFinale: Is one for the "What If...?" Collaboration. While the collab has one more story after this one, RJ has a finale-like feel to it, being the only story in the collab with actual stakes, calling the ethics of PIXAR into question, and ending with the implication that Nick and Judy will not be revisiting PIXAR anytime soon.
*RuleOfCool: The story has a few over-the-top action sequences that really only occur because they look cool. WordOfGod admits it to be a staple of his writing, though being a simulation, it may be [[JustifiedTrope justified]].
*ShoutOut: The fic is loaded with nods to it's sister fic [[Fanfic/BorntoBeWilde Born to Be Wilde]], which it is heavily based on.
