#wayne tower is built on top of the hellmouth probably

thinking about stephanie the vampire slayer!!!

steph's father led a group of warlocks who were trying to open gotham's hellmouth, but their plans were thoroughly foiled when steph was called to be a slayer.

after that, steph decides to hunt batman, bc that guy's definitely a vampire, right? that's when barbara finds her.

barbara gordon comes from a long line of watchers. she spent her life studying and preparing to guide the slayer someday, once the council deemed her ready. what can she say? she got tired of waiting, and decided to fight evil on her own.

jim tried to step in when the watchers council wanted to kick barbara out for her extracurricular ass-kicking, but ultimately the council wasn't really her cup of tea anyway, so she's kind of doing her own thing now.

her world is slightly rocked when she realizes a slayer has been called right here in gotham. she finds steph, trains her, teaches her everything she can. turns out she's a pretty damn good watcher, and steph is quick to burn her bridges with the watchers council bc she's set, actually, she's got babs.

one day a fight goes badly and steph dies--technically! for just a few minutes. she's resuscitated and gets back to slaying. no big deal. but unbeknownst to her, when she died, another slayer was called. enter: cassandra, also the vampire slayer!
