Line 68:
* Some stories give him a positive protrayal, often focusing more on on his native intelligence and wide range of interests. Two of the earliest fics to do this are "[[Blast from the Past]]" by [[Nemo Blank]], where Chuck becomes an ally trying to assist Daria; and "[[A Midsummer Nightmare's Daria]]" by [[The Angst Guy]] (2002), where he's a romantic and caring boyfriend.
* Some stories have Chuck putting on an act, either to fake confidence he doesn't have, or (as in "[http://thepaperpusher.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=43575 Children of the Scorn]" by [[Kristen Bealer]]) because he wants people to make fun of a fake him rather than the real him, or simply out of youthful idiocy he grows out of ([[TAG]]'s "[[Darkness]]" has Daria depressed to learn he'd joined the army after 9/11 and died in battle). Bealer also presented a [[pre-canon]] seventh grader Chuck Ruttheimer, still a shy unpopular boy, in "[http://web.archive.org/web/20110928180544/http://www.outpost-daria.com/fanfic/its_like_the_beginning_of_an_era.html It's Like the Beginning of an Era]". Zetor's "[http://thepaperpusher.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=46174&start=50#p773629 Enough]" has the 'act' started as mockery of his playboy father and he hates being stuck with it, and drinks when depressed.

** The other two common love interests for him are Stacy (due to their interaction in [[Life in the Past Lane]]) and [[Andrea]].
