==Extremesters==
The first installment in the ''Quinnts'' series, roughly paralleling the events of [[Esteemsters]]. Daria and the Quinnts start at [[Lawndale High]], where the Quinnts are already worshiped as celebrities, and Daria is seen as the weird and troubled sister, when she is noticed at all. Daria meets [[Jane Lane]] and, after learning she can trust her, shows her the downsides of being a sister to celebrities; she tells Jane how she has been betrayed by friends in the past, and how her parents destroyed all her writings after deciding that she was troubled and needed help. Daria also introduces Jane to her aunt [[Amy Barksdale]], her only other confidant. In the meantime, the Quinnts begin to develop their own relationships at Lawndale High.
