Line 10: Whether choices made by a character are OOC if they go against what has been established before are a matter of contention. Some prescriptivist fans believe that the patterns of action established in canon episodes prescribe the actions of the canon characters—Daria will never join a school function, [[Quinn]] will never have a steady boyfriend, etc. Other fans, however, take the opposite extreme, believing that circumstances and momentary irrationality can affect even the most consistent characters to make decisions one would not normally expect them to make. The core problem~~, of course,~~ is that the characters of ''Daria'' were not always shown to be consistent themselves. The glaring example here is, of course, the moment when Daria kissed [[Tom Sloane]] in his car ("[[Dye! Dye! My Darling]]"), which many fans believed Daria would never have done in the first place. Other fans found reason to justify The Kiss, but it remains the prime example of when a character was considered to be OOC during the series proper. =="Out of Character" in Fanfiction==
