==Trent and Fanfiction==
 
Despite what Glenn Eichler and the others writers intended, Trent/Daria [[shipper]] fanfiction ''abounds'' in fandom. The production rate of shipper fics used to be quite intensive during the first few years of the show, butboth fics that showed them getting together and fics that played up the crush ([[C.E. Forman]]'s "Lost Stories" fics). The number have gone down since then;, newand [[anti-'shipper]] fics have turned up to poke holes in the pairing, like "[[I've Waited Here for You]]" by [[Kristen Bealer]]. New Trent/Daria fics are still a frequent sight ([http://thepaperpusher.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=31873 Life As We View It] / [http://thepaperpusher.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=31913 Second Glance] by [[GingerLove84]], however, as are fics that have the pairing in the background ("[[Drive (TAG story)|Drive]]" by [[TAG]]).
 
The main depiction of Trent in fanfiction is either a similar role to canon - a helpful, decent (but lazy) ally of Daria and Jane. Some present a Trent who has become far more successful: often, Mystic Spiral (or Trent on his own) have become a successful band, such as several fics by [[Nemo Blank]]. Others will play up Trent's worse attributes and his obvious lack of a future for dramatic purposes, like [[E. A. Smith]]'s "[[Nowhere Man]]".
 
A minority of fanfics take a deliberately negative view of Trent, such as [[The Angst Guy]]'s "[[Darkness]]" where an older Trent is a physically and emotionally abusive man.
