Line 1: [[Image:Trent_the_director.gif\|~~left~~right\|frame]] A fanfic written as a TV episode or movie script. This format was more often seen in the earlier years of the fandom, while the ''Daria'' show as still being aired. Some very long ''Daria'' [[series]] have been entirely written in script form (~~e.g.,~~see ~~[[Abruptly~~examples ~~Amy]], the [[Driven Wild Universe]], [[The Lost Seasons]], [[The Look-Alike Series]], the [[First Summer]] series, and the [[DF Continuum]]~~below). No commonly agreed-upon format exists for the way in which scriptfics are presented. Some include detailed stage directions, some are structured like actual animated episodes (even having commercial breaks and fake commercials), and some are exceedingly simple and spare in design.
