Guilty Pleasures
For the story by Erin Mills, see Guilty Pleasures.
Guilty Pleasures is a series of short ficlets by Angelinhel in response to the Iron Chef: Pick out any Daria character, old or young, male or female, and show him or her indulging in a "guilty pleasure". The character should be somewhat secretive about it, and be doing something noticeably (though not necessarily drastically) out of character.

Plot Summary
Warning: The following may contain plot or ending details.
Chapter One
A female character enters the library, intending to meet the rest of the people she had been playing an online role-playing game with, none of which knew each other's real identities. It is revealed that Axl and Trent are among the players, Trent having discovered the game while surfing the web. Stacy Rowe also shows up, though it is not unbelievable that she would enjoy the anonymity and opportunity to be a stronger character that an online role-playing game would allow. Daria is the final player, surprised to see that she knew the people who she'd become friend with online in real life and would never had thought they'd get along.
The most surprising twist is that the Dungeon Master who ran the games, was none other than Brittany Taylor.
