Quinn's Code (A Daria AU)
Installment 5: Morgendorffers vs. Amazon
Monday, November 7, 2005
Daria Morgendorffer, Jane Lane and Jennifer Burns were watching Sick Sad World in Daria's bedroom.
“An encyclopedia is an unusual product for a supermodel to promote, isn't it?” the SSW reporter asked a supermodel in skimpy clothing.
“But you see, what's different about my encyclopedia is you only buy the letters you find attractive. And it's got big margins to draw your own pictures! How do you call them? Margins, yes?”
“You say you wrote every word yourself...”
“Yes, I did!” the supermodel said.
“That's interesting.”
“Ya!”
“I've said it before, I'll say it again: you have the coolest room,” Jane said.
“I agree,” Jennifer said.
“It's got pros and cons. You can't hurt yourself in here, but you can't hurt anybody else in here, either,” Daria said.
Jane got up from where she was scketching on the bed and walked over to the wall between the closet and the music set up. She pressed against the padding. “I wish there'd been a schizophrenic shut-in living in our house before we moved in. Of course, we've got Trent there now. That's almost the same thing,” she said.
“Is it?” Jennifer asked.
“Well he's narcoleptic,” Jane conceded.
“I suppose,' Jennifer said under her breath.
“My mother's threatening to redecorate again. Every time she brings it up, I stumble and grab a handrail. But I think she's catching on,” Daria said.
“You need to stumble somewhere else in the house. Cut yourself badly. She'll reconsider,” Jane said sarcastically.
'Not really,' Jennifer thought. “Or say that your music would sound rather louder without the padding,” she said.
“Thanks for your help,” Daria said.
Jennifer gave a small smile.
“Next on Sick, Sad World: the Malibu Primate Diet.”
“Like anyone would replicate the eating habits of apes?” Jennifer asked quietly.
“Are you sure?” Jane asked.
“Not even Kevin.”
“Maybe,” Daria said.
