===Maternal Amy===
===Maternal Amy===
Related to the Saint Amy theme is '''Maternal Amy''', in which she either has a baby or else acts ''in loco parentis'' for Daria because Jake and Helen are either dead, absent, or otherwise unable to raise her. The best example is the Amy Barksdale of [[Kara Wild]]'s [[Driven Wild Universe]], who has a baby with her live-in boyfriend, [[Joel Silverman]]. Amy proves herself a good if occasionally exasperated mother. Perhaps the best Maternal Amy story in this [[series]] is Ms. Wild's "[[Mother's Milk]]."

In this same vein, Amy gets married to a wealthy Air National Guard pilot, [[Maurice 'Reese' Wyatt]], in [[Brother Grimace]]'s "[[A Path of Roses and Thorns]]," a [[Dariaverse crossover]] with [[Richard Lobinske]]'s [[Falling into College]] series. Amy inherits twin girls from Wyatt's previous marriage and becomes a beloved stepmother to them both.
