Dead Flies In The Summertime

Summary

It's 2019, and Party Poison and Fun Ghoul find a girl all alone in the middle of the Zones. They bring her back to headquarters— will it be the best decision though?

Rated NC-17 for language and thematic elements. First person narrative, written in past tense. Maybe be triggering— I'll try to put a trigger warning at the beginning of the appropriate chapters

Characters

Cherri Cola

Cherri Cola

32, Killjoy. He's an info resource for the Fab Four, and stakes his claim dangerously close to Bat City. His information is 100% accurate and the Fab Four would trust him with their lives.

Crash Fire

Crash Fire

30, resident hacker. Crash's backstory is an enigma, as is her life outside of the Fab Four.

Fun Ghoul

Fun Ghoul

31, Party Poison's lover. Did you know that 'ba fungul'— pronounced the same way— is Italian for 'fuck off'? Seems fitting. He doesn't seem capable of being a Killjoy, but you know what they say— big surprises come in small packages.

Grace (The Girl)

Grace (The Girl)

10. The Fab Four quote-unquote 'adopt' her when Party and Ghoul find her alone in the desert, and they find out a few things about Battery City from her that they're not sure whether they want to know or not.

Jet Star

Jet Star

33, the man with a plan. He's a born-and-raised 'Joy, which makes him invaluable to the Fab Four.

Kobra Kid

Kobra Kid

31, Party Poison's little brother, the spiritual advisor. He's a little brash, a little crass, but he's really just a big softy.

Party Poison

Party Poison

33, Kobra Kid's older brother, the off-center leader. He's very protective of the rest of the Fab Four, and it doesn't help that he has a big heart.

Show Pony

Show Pony

30, they're not a boy or a girl— they're a gift from God. They're the tech junkie for the Fab Four.

Tommy Chow Mein

Tommy Chow Mein

36, Killjoy. Works with Cherri Cola to help the Fab Four. He has a pretty mysterious past, but everyone is slowly piecing it together.

Google translate has worked with Italian, Spanish, Greek, Latin, and Dutch for me for my fics, but when I put your phrase in, the English translation, came up as exactly what I'd put in as the Japanese... That sucked.. Nice to know what it means.. If I'm putting a foreign sentence into a fic, I usually write it like this..

"Salve omnes, quomodo es?"
("Hello everyone, how are you?")

that at way the reader knows what's being said without having to check the notes. It's just an idea though.
ps. That's Latin btw! Xx
