Fanfic Update!

• Cuckoo (IC: Daria Vitale), by Charles RB (COMPLETE!): "From the raised voices, Daria guessed they'd be leaving Lawndale soon. Leaving Maryland soon, apparently, from the constant repetition of "Highland". (Where was Highland?) It was probably temporary, until the heat died down. She hadn't expected it but, well, shit happens. They'd be back soon anyway, because Dad would never stay away and look weak."


• Daria Gets Knocked Up A Notch! (Scenes no Daria Fanfic should ever have: Monday, Monday), by Shiva (COMPLETE!): "Hello everyone, your favorite nympho misanthrope Daria Morgendorffer here, I guess you’re wondering what I've been up too since I started college right?"


• Ethan Yeager in Lawndale: Ch 8 Negotiable Education, by Shiva (part 7): "Helen said with some embarrassment, 'I have to take this.' 'It’s like she’s working for Eric all over again.' Daria commented with a slight twinge of a smile, which made Tom and Quinn both give nervous laughs. It quickly became apparent that the conversation wasn’t work related when the first words out of Helen’s mouth was, 'Willow! What’s wrong you sound upset... WHAT?! REX’S PARENTS TRIED TO KILL HIM?!?!'"


• God Save the Esteem 42: Combat Rock, by Charles RB (part 5): "She’d walked out of the forest and through the initial chaos in town, dead eyes on the outside and a brain like an acid trip in a nuclear reactor on the inside, and stood in the middle of the not-riot, looking at both sides and calculating odds. When the nearest tactical officer noticed her, it became clear in a split-second that she was one of their targets. There really wasn’t any time to think why. She improvised."


• God Save The Esteems Meets Dallas (Scenes no Daria Fanfic should ever have: Monday, Monday), by Charles RB (COMPLETE!): "Jake 'the Snake' got out of his car, hands up apologetically as he approached the other: 'Oh, sorry, man! Didn't see you! Uhhh, gimme a sec, I'll get our insurance deta-' His eyes widened at the sight of the other driver. 'You're... you're J.R. Ewing! Girls! It's J.R. Ewing!'"



• A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall, by LongSnakeMoan (COMPLETE!): "Anthony wondered if Timothy knew his motivational new age speak made no sense to anyone with a half functioning brain. He watched as Timothy removed a photograph from his shirt pocket and leaned over to take it. On first glance he saw that the girl in the picture was blonde, which would no doubt send Janet completely over the edge. As he looked over the picture properly his felt his blood run cold and his stomach seemed to drop."


• The Hunter Home from the Hill, by DeacBlue (parts 9 and 10): "'Whaddya gonna do about it, faggot?' he said, before pain blossomed between his legs and his world went black. 'Well...that, Mister desperate-for-a-shag Miller,' Patrick said, his foot and trumpet case now both back where they were supposed to be. He turned and started back towards their spot, unfortunately forgetting that there were three other people with his opponent." (Part 10)


• Into the Black, Into the Blue (Ch 2), by Lord Yellowtail (part 4): "She scowled, pushing herself deeper into the shadows and settling back to hide until she could get a look at whatever had decided to ambush her ambush. Tastes like someone evaporated a latte and mixed it in with a regular smoke bomb. ... Huh. Kinda nice, actually. With an even deeper scowl, she brutally crushed that thought."


• Lawndale School of Magic Part 5: The Gauntlet, by Reven384 (part 3): "She started casting the spell. It was a long spell and would take time to finish. As she chanted lighting flew from Quinn’s body to her mother’s body. She smiled as she knew she was close to achieving the goal she’d been aiming for all these years. She’d learned dark magic just for this. The door slammed open just as the spell finished."


• Little Green Cap, by peetz5050 (COMPLETE!): "'Detective, won't you sit down, please.' 'Chip, if you don't mind, this is a semi-social call, OK if I call you Daria?' 'Sure. So... what can I do for you?' Chip took his time before answering, studying the girl in front of him who was returning his gaze with equal directness. 'Straight and dirty?' She nodded. 'Need you to testify.'"


• Lost and Found, by Reven384 (part 7): "Finally exhaustion got the better of her and she fell asleep. She dreamed of her family happily living their life because they didn’t have to deal with her anymore. The sun woke her up from her restless sleep. She frowned. She hated dreams, because they were always bad. She decided not to dwell on it. Even if they didn’t miss her she missed them and that was enough to drive her forward with her plan."


• The Mission (Iron Chef: Funhouse Mirror Time (AU Crossovers with Canon)), by neonhomer (COMPLETE!): "She looked at the person standing in front of her. She was just as tall, with hair and a body structure that were similar to her own. The only odd thing was the outfit... black pants, black boots, and a black jacket with crimson red across the shoulders. A bit of a light blue undershirt could be seen around the collar and down the front. A gold and silver badge was worn over the left breast. There wer four gold dots along the neckline of the shirt on the right side. She also wore glasses, though not a round as her own. 'Who are you?'"


• A Resentful Cynic Ch.4 : Revenge of the Malled, by ST91 (part 1): "Sebastian and Megan had accidentally discovered the illegal trafficking that the three girls were doing ; at the beginning they weren’t very happy, but when they heard how much Andrea earned and that what she wrote guaranteed an A to the student who bought her work, the two had withdrawn their objections and had congratulated her. God Andrea, you do not know how lucky you are. If my mother knew what I’m doing, she would take all the money I’ve earned and forbid me from continuing, Daria had thought that time."



• Robert and Daria (Scenes no Daria Fanfic should ever have: Monday, Monday), by Shiva (COMPLETE!): "Daria looked at the long white stick and held it up to the light so Robert could see it, the little blue plus sign drilled it's way into the Linebacker's eyes and his hands shook as he held up the box to confirm what it meant."


• Rude Awakening Ep 11: Sucks To Be Them!, by DIsaac (part 2): "DARIA: Me and Q rating is doing just fine and I've made peace with it. What the hell is a Q rating? TIFFANY: It's a measure of how much people like you. DARIA: And my feeling about that is? TIFFANY: You could care less. DARIA: Glad to know you listen to me."


• Testament of Wisdom (Iron Chef: The Peace Pact), by januense (COMPLETE!): "'I know ... we're not still able to fully understand the meaning of it. We don't know, for example, what could possibly be the "Cold cream war" ... perhaps a huge war .... the trigger that pushed them to write this document ... probably we'll never know, but the core of it is clear. Few simple rules that had established peace in the known universe ! .... so beautiful and so ... sad.'"


• Unexpected Hookup: First Taste, by Shiva (COMPLETE!): "As Daria slipped into the car the next day she handed Ronnie a note and as he flipped it open he asked, 'Taking a vow of silence Dia?' 'It’s from Quinn,' Daria replied with amusement, 'And it’s for the two of us.' Ronnie skimmed it, then his eyes bulged a bit and he then read it word for word and then handed back to Daria and said, 'Wow, I didn’t think she had it in her.'"


• Unexpected Hookup: A Bigger Bite, by Shiva (part 1): "Daria whispered to him, 'My parents had some catering done, but just go along with the lies of my mother having cooked everything.' 'Sure Dia,' Ronnie whispered back just as they were noticed by Jake Morgendorffer, who was relaxing on the couch with a martini in hand. 'Oh hey Kiddo,' he said kindly, 'This must be Ronnie right?'"


• Unnamed story (Scenes no Daria Fanfic should ever have: Monday, Monday), by BrownEyedBagel (COMPLETE!): "The water is hot. The water is clean. Water washes the crimson off the skin. Water makes the blood go away. Water makes me clean."



• Unnamed story (Scenes no Daria Fanfic should ever have: Monday, Monday), by Greystar (COMPLETE!): "'Our glorious Superintendant General has decreed that there are enough citizens in the city of Lawndale that we may proceed out of the city walls and establish a new settlement in the Outlands!' 'In other words,' Jane said with a sigh. 'It's another opportunity for Li to set up her own little kindgom out from under the prying eyes of the superintendant.'"


• Unnamed story (Scenes no Daria Fanfic should ever have: Monday, Monday), by NightGoblyn (COMPLETE!): "Daria's boots skidded a little on the concrete as she turned, but she barely slowed and barreled up the steps and into the school building. It was early morning, there were only a few people in the hallways. Still panicked, Daria looked back and forth, hoping for an adult. She spotted Timothy O'Neill. Her eyes roved again, looking for a useful adult."
