Dustin Durfee

**Dustin Durfee** is a character in *Magical Girl Policy*. He doesn't make a direct appearance, but is a major figure from Robert's past, as the two were football rivals growing up.

## Appearance

As a skilled football player, Dustin presumably had an athletic build. After his growth spurt prior to his sophomore year of high school, he is said to have grown nearly a foot in height and became a muscular giant.

## Personality

Dustin is described as a stereotypical idiot jock. He was a skilled football player throughout middle and high school, but was always just behind Robert until puberty let him finally obtain the starting running back position his sophomore year. Robert being better than him for years frustrated him to the point of becoming resentful and a bully. Dustin becoming the team's star player earned him much popularity, and he and his girlfriend Evelyn became the school's power couple, though his behavior had earned him a number of enemies as well.

## Biography

### Background

Dustin Durfee grew up in Deepwater, a small town in the southern United States. He was a football player since middle school, and considered himself the rival of Robert Dreese, who was always just ahead of him on the depth chart and took the running back position he wanted.

During high school, Robert looked to once again become the starting running back once the current one graduated. Once sophomore year started, however, Dustin had a massive growth spurt and overtook Rob on the depth chart, becoming the team's star player. Dustin started dating queen bee cheerleader Evelyn Gray, becoming the school's power couple. After Robert crossed Evelyn, she found her attempts at retaliation via attacks on Rob's ego to be fruitless, so she convinced Dustin that his rival should be put in his place. Dustin attempted to beat Robert up in the locker room, but the fight quickly ended with Rob tripping Dustin and dislocating his shoulder. This caused Rob to be suspended for two weeks.

Upon returning to school, Robert found much of the students as well as his coach mad at him for injuring Dustin, and was moved further down the depth chart. Next semester, he was convinced by his Uncle Taylor to take ballet lessons in order to improve his game and get moved back up. Evelyn somehow discovered this, and quietly spread rumors that Robert was gay, though these didn't take full effect until junior year, when she finally revealed his taking ballet. Dustin and the other football players' name-calling wore on Rob to the point of no longer enjoying the sport, quitting the team his senior year.

## Relationships

### Robert Dreese/Robynne Darling

Dustin had considered Robert his rival since middle school, as Rob was always a slightly better football player than him and routinely beat him to the starting running back position. Dustin grew to resent Robert for this, so when he finally overtook Rob during sophomore year of high school, he was easily convinced by Evelyn to attack Rob. Once Robert's ballet lessons were revealed, Dustin led the team in repeated name-calling, which led to Rob eventually quitting.

### Evelyn Gray

Sometime after obtaining his popularity from becoming the football team's star player, Dustin began dating Evelyn, a similarly popular cheerleader. The two became the school's power couple, though Rob likened the two's relationship to Dustin being Evelyn's goon.
