bc I am trash

Pony hasn’t fallen over while skating since he was a teenager.

He can’t draw much more than stick figures, but at least he’s better at drawing than Dr. D.

He’s know Dr. D since he was little, as his mother was friends with the killjoy.

He taught himself how to skate, and even taught himself all of the ridiculous tricks he knows.

Despite loving music, Pony can’t play any instruments. He’s a decent singer, though.

Opinions on Val Velocity?

Personally I wish that his atonement or whatever it was wasn’t so sudden. I thought he had the potential to be a really good antihero but his character went from total bad guy to good guy with like no in between

Without analyzing him too much, he’s a total douche

Not a hc, but how do you think marriage would be viewed by killjoys out in the zones? I always sort of pictured it to be something that was either never thought about, or if it was, it was always kept quiet.

I always figured it either wouldn’t be thought of, or there would be a pretty large celebration for it since you’d be able to marry whoever you wanted to, unlike in the City.

Anyone else have thoughts on this?

I have a trans Kobra headcanon where Kobra comes out to Poison as trans ,and Poison gets up and leaves which makes Kobra upset because he thinks Poison doesn't accept him. A few hours later Poison drives up in the trans am and Kobra walks out like "What the hell? Where did this even come from Poison?" and Poison just turns to him and goes "A trans am for my trans man," and revs the engine.

Oh my God, that’s amazing. Ahaha. I think this is one of my favorite trans Kobra headcanons ever. That’s such an awesome way of showing his support.

I feel like because gender roles are probably very strict in bc, there basically aren't any gender roles in the zones. When people move to the zones away from bc they want to get away from the pressure to be a certain thing and of course fitting into gender roles is a part of this, so they leave that behind and they become their actual true selves. Of course there would still be masculine men and feminine women but because that's just how they are.

Agreed. I think gender is pretty fluid in the Zones. Most people don’t care, and the ones who do have much bigger things to worry about. Killjoys wouldn’t have the same pressure to keep up a certain image and make other people (or a corporation) happy. They just need to survive and cooperate with others.

I'm jumping on this bandwagon. Genderfluid pansexual Party Poison, Nonbinary demiromantic/sexual Kobra Kid, Trans male bisexual Fun Ghoul, and Demiboy gay Jet Star.

Cool beans. ✅ You don’t see gay Jet Stars too often.

okay i headcanon party being maverique and presenting mostly androgynous, but more feminine or masculine some days. he's super allosexual and aroflux with a preference for guys/enbies. he can't decide if he's pan or bi so he just doesnt mention it.

I think Poison’s gender is definitely pretty fluid. He doesn’t try to define it, he just is. He inspires other kids in the Zones (especially the ones fresh from the city) to break gender boundaries and be who they really are.

(Just a general hc) Bl/ind only took over about half of america. Like out east it's pretty trashy from the wars but still normal. The capitol is controlled by bl/ind to keep everyone in the east under control and not suspicious but only the west coast till about colorado is actually fully controlled by bl/ind. and even that it's only the big/relatively big cities. Everywhere else is just zones

Ooh, that’s interesting. I wonder if people would try to escape the western half to find more freedom in the eastern half. Smugglers would probably operate on the border.

I was thinking about “goodnight, dr death” and now i’m feeling like the american national anthem (don’t know the name, oops) would be reallllly taboo in battery city, which would have it’s own anthem. it would be seen as very suspicious to play, sing, or even reference it unless it was in a historical context. like, even mentioning it in a neutral way would be enough to receive a written reprimand from The Patrol, and repeated offences would get you monitored for terrorist activity. it would be taken extremely seriously since it would be seen as a huge ‘fuck you’ to bli and the Director. because of this, it would be heavily used by killjoys (not by neutrals though, as they for the most part do see killjoys as terrorists).

Kobra’s Speech

The reason Kobra doesn’t speak very much is because he has a very strong stutter which he has very little control over. In Battery City, they tried very hard to get rid of it with therapy and various drugs, but because nothing ever worked he was treated very poorly as a child. He’s too embarrassed to speak unless it’s around Party or the others for fear of being mistreated again. He knows sign language which is how he communicates with others, so many Killjoys just assumes he’s deaf and never ask about it.

show pony headcanons: (for the anon) he finds almost everything amusing/he can be very emotional and impulsive/he's untidy but claims to have a system for it/his over-protectiveness of his junk marks him as a bit of a hoarder/he is hard to crack in emotional situaltions/he used to be very insecure about his image

Awesome Pony headcanons! I think he’d be pretty protective of his possessions, too. He’d treat his junk like it were priceless treasure. After living in the Zones for so long, he’d know the value of what some people might call “little things.”

My headcanon for Kobra is that some nights he'll sit up on the roof with The Girl, making up stories about the stars and spinning tales around the constellations. Other times he'll just quietly sit on the roof of the diner and stare at the stars, that are so much brighter in the Zones.

Aww. I love headcanons about Kobra being a storyteller, or having a fascination with nature. He’d probably know all the constellations. Maybe he and Poison would even make up some of their own. I think that sometimes he’d look up at the stars and find the familiarity comforting.

BLI has an incredible Child Protective Services Department. The number of homeless, abused, or neglected children is very low in Battery City; its orphanages are cramped but comfortable enough, and almost every home that wants a child has one. To the outside eye it might seem like there are nothing but benevolent intentions, but there are a select few who know differently. Every child who passes through those doors is evaluated thoroughly, but though it’s said that it’s to assess what each child needs in their new home, the truth behind the matter is that they’re looking for children with very specific traits. Those unlucky children aren’t heard from again–or, at least, when they are seen again, they’re all but unrecognizable. Any average Scarecrow will tell you that there’s only so far you can get through promotions alone. The elite, the best-of-the-best, the most skilled and dangerous, they didn’t rise through the ranks to get there–they were assigned their positions. Not many see them at all before they’ve been trained sufficiently and are ready to step into the public eye, and even fewer know where they come from. But if one knows where to look, deep in BLI’s files, they can find the truth. Records, from Child Protective Services, telling of a teenage boy taken from his abusive father, a young girl plucked from a failing Zones orphanage, a little tousle-haired boy pulled off of the streets, and countless more through the years, some dating back even before the Fires and even before Bat City itself. All vanished for years without a trace, before returning as something different, something terrible…something deadly.

Maybe Korse used to shave his head before becoming bald because he thought hair was an easy way to rebel (killjoys dying their hair) and thought to be pure and a good BL/ind citizen

Hmm, interesting idea :o I wonder if that’s an intentional part of his character design. A lot of Killjoys have brightly colored hair, while Korse is bald. He’s pretty much the anti-Killjoy, after all. (At least until he rebels.)

Headcanon: Jet Star is more of a mother hen for the fabs, but he might just be one of the most broken ones. Maybe he ran away or grew up in poverty or a broken home. He wasn't protected or sheltered very much in his life, so he wants to try to hide his vulnerability and give his best friends the comfort and care he lacked so much as a child.

That makes a lot of sense, actually. He knows what it’s like to suffer, so he wants to protect his friends from it. In some ways they’re like his brothers, and in others they’re like his children.

I have a head canon that the patient from the black parade is a killjoy who got captured and brainwashed but as he's dying he keeps getting images of like all the killjoys who've been ghosted (aka the black parade)

That’s a really interesting idea. It’s like the Witch gave him a glimpse of Killjoys on the road to the afterlife. It’d be fascinating and horrifying at the same time.
