It's 2019. The city you're living in is completely homogenized. It's a plain of Utopian uniformity, a metropolis of very few risks but even fewer rewards. You're safe, but you're bored, too. There's no danger anymore, but there's no daring either. Fear has been eradicated, but so has freedom. And at the head of this tedious existence is Better Living Industries, an oxymoron if there ever was one: a promise of a better life, yet only within strictly-defined parameters. So if you're looking for thrills and chaos and excitement and unpredictability... well, this isn't place for you.

Outside of the city, though, there's something different. It's wild and untamed. A resistance, led by a gang of feckless outlaws known as the 'Fabulous Killjoys': Party Poison, Jet Star, Fun Ghoul and Kobra Kid. Most of their rebellion is contained to subversive radio transmissions - crackling missives which spread messages of hope, defiance, love and - most crucially - having fun with the help of pirate DJ Dr. Death Defying. Hitching your wagon to these guys is probably your best chance of escape.

Can the Killjoys escape the boring, monotonous life of safety, or are they willing to risk their lives for a thrill?

"Now if you'll notice, I do try. Get out of the way, I'm back in line. No one will notice if I died... Maybe you'll live for me sometimes, Adeline..." ~~~~~~~~~~ Adeline was only four years old when she was left behind by her parents during the Great Fires of 2012. She would have died if it wasn't for two very kind young men, brothers, noticing the crying, exhausted little girl standing in the middle of the roads surrounded by rubble from burning buildings and deciding to save her life by carrying her away from the fire. These guys would soon grow up to be two out of four of the Fabulous Killjoys, Kobra Kid and Party Poison. Who would Adeline grow up to be? Now, in 2021 at thirteen years old, Adeline lives a sad, boring life alone in a little hut in the desert. The brothers who saved her life hadn't seen Adeline for nine years, since rescuing her, and vice versa. Until one day, they reunite, now with Fun Ghoul and Jet Star on their side. Many disturbing things about her parents are revealed throughout, some surprising and some not-so-surprising which were in front of her face the whole time. ~~~~~~~~~~ DISCLAIMER: This fic has no connection in plot to any of my other Killjoy/Danger Days fics, and all the rights to the Fabulous Killjoys characters belong to Gerard Way, My Chemical Romance, and The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys comic book. ~~~~~~~~~~ TRIGGER WARNING: deals with the sensitive subjects of self-harm, suicide, depression, sexual assault, physical and emotional abuse. Please be careful while reading! But other than that, I hope you enjoy the story!

Better Living Industries is here to help. Whether that means providing jobs, providing medication, or providing a team of specially-trained superheroes to watch over you, rest assured that Better Living Industries has your best interests at heart. That's what they tell everyone, anyway, but you don't have to look very far to see the truth behind the lies. BL/ind's army of "superheroes" is just as corrupt as the rest of the company. Party Poison and Kobra Kid managed to get out of the city before BL/ind could be made aware of their powers, before they could be forced to join the superheroes in their torment of civilians. Fun Ghoul was taken from the city before he could even make a choice one way or the other. And Jet Star? Well, Jet Star wasn't so lucky.
