Slash: Difference between revisions

In a curious alter-ago picture at the end of the TV movie, ''[[Is It College Yet?]],'' [[Lindy]] and [[Alison]] were depicted in a scene on a farm with a number of children, implying that they were a lesbian couple with a family. [[Crusading Saint]] used this image as the basis for his story, "[[Love, Reign Over Me]]," arguably the only slash shipper given some form of support by the TV show.

 

Generally speaking, there are two types of slash stories seen in ''Daria'' fanfic: the purely erotic ("[[The Passion Club]]," "[[Girls' Night Out]]") and the romance, or relationship explorer ("[[Out On Vacation]]," "[[Pause in the Air]]"), though some stories manage to combine both ("[[Writes of Passage]]").

 

"Coming out" is almost always an issue and promises considerable turmoil and [[angst]] ("[[Out On Vacation]]"), if not outright danger ("[[The Two of Them]]"). Same-sex relationships are prey to the same difficulties and breakups as heterosexual ones, with outpourings of [[angst]] always a possibility ("[[Just the Sun at Night]]").
