Michael Fulton



Daria's romantic interest in Richard Lobinske's Falling Into College stories. A history major at Raft that plans to specialize in archeology in graduate school. Physically, he has bright red hair and wears aviator-style glasses, not quite 6 ft tall and medium build. Originally from a suburb of Detroit, Michigan, where he grew up with his parents Ron and Samantha, and younger sister Gina.

He is highly intellegent, having earned a spot in an exclusive archeology undergraduate program in Italy that he turned down to stay with Daria. His quiet, gentle and romantic nature is what sparked Daria's love for him, while his sense of humor closely matches hers, enabling them to banter in much the same way as Daria and Jane. While normally mild, he can be impulsive at times, sometimes with less than the desired results, such as his disasterous first proposal for marriage. Part of this also comes out in his impatient driving habits, much to Daria's annoyance.

Early in the series, he worked with his father as a surveyer duing the summer and currently he is a custodial and field worker at the Boston National Historic Park.
