A Rare Sweet Father-Daughter Moment


Jake and a very reluctant Daria are observing Hug Holiday, but if anyone outside Daria's immediate family tries to join in then they should watch out--Daria has been known to threaten lawsuits to thwart physical contact. Jane is an exception, however, as she's one of the few people Daria has voluntarily hugged in her life. And all it took was a traumatic car accident!

On the other hand, if Jane values her life she won't try to get this encounter on film, even if it is Camera Day. Cameras are only for photographing Jake when his eye bursts a blood vessel.

On this day in 1998, the episode "Gifted" first aired and we found out that there are, in fact, worse schools in Lawndale than Lawndale High. Well, equally as bad, at least.

Fanfic Update!
  • Her Last Words, by Sheila Wisz Ellayn (parts 84 - 86): "The great red oaks of Wallerstein Park swayed a little in the icy wind, the winter sky was bright and clear with only a few cirrus clouds so far into the distance, it was quite a frozen morning and everything was silent except for the ravens and the soft whispers of the trees." (Part 85) (Part 86)

  • Static and Silence, by Jhxdhchxclvhcydjbp (parts 1 and 2): "Lawndale wasn’t what she expected. She thought a town like this would be quieter. Sleepy. Beige, maybe. But no—Lawndale buzzed with a kind of tired static." (Part 2)
