Daria Morgendorffer: Difference between revisions

 

 

* [[Kevin Thompson]]: A popular football player and Brittany's boyfriend. Daria enjoys manipulating his stupidity like she did Beavis and Butt-head, and often insults him: he doesn't understand most of her insults. Despite this, as with Brittany, he seems to view her as a friend: often seeking her advice ("The Misery Chick", "[[Too Cute]]") while unthinkingly bringing up her unpopularity at the same time, and in "[[The Big House]]" and "[[Ill]]", being concerned for her welfare. In "Partner's Complaint" though, he panicked at the idea of hanging out with Daria for any length of time. He once thought Tom was joking when he said he was Daria's date. ("[[Is It Fall Yet?]]")

* [[Jodie Landon]]: She's one of the very few students that are on Daria's level intellectually. She and Daria sometimes clash over their divergent viewpoints or over Daria's misanthropic attitude ("Gifted", "Partner's Complaint", "Fizz Ed"). Despite their personality clashes, Jodie often starts conversations with Daria and will often seek her advice (Daria will sometimes snark instead). Notably, in "Gifted" both girls admitted they sometimes wished they could be more like the other. She is socially friendly with Daria: she has invited her to the Landon 4th of July parties; she is concerned with Daria's welfare.

 

 

{{quote|Sweet Daria, you don't have to resort to a ruse to get into my personal space. All you need do is ask.| Upchuck before Daria told him that his personal space was the final frontier, one where she intended never to boldly go}}

* [[Upchuck]]: The school's horn-dog. He first met her in "[[The Invitation]]" and has repeatedly crossed paths with her ever since, nearly always trying to flirt and get a date. Daria responds to this with horror and put-downs; Upchuck views her as "''fi''esty!", and in "[[The Daria Diaries]]" we find out he has included an unnamed outline of Daria in his website's "Gallery of Feisty Babes", implying a genuine crush.

 

 

{{quote|Er, uh, u'mm, err...| [[Sandi]] trying to start a conversation with Daria in "Quinn The Brain"}}

* [[Fashion Club]]: Quinn's fashion-obsessed friends. Daria's path has crossed with theirs several times, much to the horror of both sides; they'll only deliberately seek her out if they're desperate. The Club used to pretend they didn't know Daria was Quinn's sister. Daria and Jane once casually bet on whether the Club would dissolve, and then tried to nudge events ("[[Fat Like Me]]"). Sometimes, when [[Sandi Griffin]] is clearly trying something against Quinn, Daria will take minor action to help her sister ("[[Just Add Water]]").
