Generation Gap

Generation Gap is a post-canon alternate universe story inspired by an iron chef challenge from Prince Charon; what if Helen was Daria's grandmother?

A week after her her high school graduation, Daria is told about her real mother, Anastasia, whom Helen had when she was sixteen, the result of her tryst with the stunt car driver mentioned in My Night at Daria's. Daria had been delivered to Jake and Helen by people claiming to be from Family Services, who said that Daria's mother and her adopted family had died and there were no other "appropriate" blood relatives that could be located. Because of the many questions that Helen had never been able to find a good answer for in the years since, Daria changes majors to study Criminal Investigation and Forensics and begins her own search for what happened to her mother.
