Some misc. fun headcanons I made for some of DIO's minor minions. There isn't a ton of info on some of these guys, so I tried my best. And if there's interest, I'll try to write more for the rest of the villain group. Requested by @mepha-stop-it-please :)
🧞 Cameo - He claims he once encountered a real genie, but didn't believe they were real at the time and ended up wasting his wish on just a free cup of tea. He's surprisingly well-read, and knows the most cutting and elegant insults in at least twelve languages.
🚗 Z.Z. - He is a huge fan of horror-action films, some of his favourites being Christine (his personal inspiration) and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
💛 Rubber Soul - Has used his Stand to help him in bodybuilding competitions, but still won 2nd place every single time, a source of great bitterness for him. Keeps a journal of the unusual things he's eaten around the world, some of which would haunt even the strongest-stomached gourmand.
☀️ Arabia Fats - Though heat makes him uncomfortable, his skin is unbothered by it. He can walk barefoot across fire, hot sand, coals or concrete without even a red mark. However, his main hobby is vinyl record collecting - something he has to be very cautious using his Stand around.
🐟 Captain Tennille - He's actually a fairly talented musician, and taught himself to play the mandolin and piano. He also knows a pretty extensive collection of ghost stories that he will tell to any who bring them up.
🪰 Gray Fly - He listens to late-night conspiracy talk shows while he makes keepsakes from his victims in his gloomy, dark apartment. He has also befriended the roaches and beetles in his building, and even made a little miniature circus set for them. He seems like he would enjoy the X-Files, but would root for the aliens.
Downtown Cairo, Egypt
11:25 AM - Early February, 1988
It was a decently warm day in Cairo, tourism has gone down significantly as February was its last month due to the country's extreme temperatures in the coming months, so the streets were a lot more bearable to walk on.
Medea was recently given permission to walk into the city by herself, under the condition that she doesn't leave the country without permission(which she couldn't do anyway because DIO stole her passport). She was walking down the city streets with a bag of groceries in hand while wearing her servant's attire.
Medea: *Walking down the sidewalk while looking at her grocery list* A carton of eggs, check... cayenne peppers, check... burger meat, check... lettuce, check... I guess that's about everything... *Walks to a crosswalk, which is currently in the red for stop*....... *Sees an old man slowly walking to the crosswalk as well*
Old man: *Humming while walking slowly* 𝄞 ♪ ♫ 𝄢 ♬
Rude man: *Pushes the old man out of the way* Move it, ya geezer!
Medea: *Irritated* HEY! What's your problem, jerk!? *Throws a rock at him* NGH! *But misses, to the old man* Are you ok, sir?
Old man: *Gets up* I'm alright, child... I swear these youngsters have no respect for their elders nowadays.
Medea: You're telling me, I remember my grandmother getting harassed by some delinquents in Ireland sometime back.
Old man: You're not from around here?
Medea: I..."moved" here almost two months ago, I work as a maid for a rich dude in the Islamic district.
Old man: *Beamed* Oh what a coincidence, I was supposed to meet someone there myself.
Medea: Well in that case, we'll walk there together. *Offers her arm* I'll help you across the street. *[Molly] shows up to grab her shoulder, shaking her head* Hm?
Old man: *Grabs her arm* Why thank you, young lady. *They see the light turn green and they started walking down the crosswalk* By the way, I never got your name.
Medea: It's Medea King, and you are?
Old man: Gray Fly.
Medea: *Confused*........... Gray...Fly???? *In her mind* What an odd name, and yet... there's something familiar about it, and [Molly] seems to be acting strange around him to.
While Medea was pondering about the older man as they walk down the street, we take our attention to an airplane that had just left Cairo's International Airport.
Airplane
11:29 AM
Inside the airplane are a bunch of passengers leaving Egypt by plane, one of the passengers was a bearded Egyptian man carrying a briefcase that's been handcuffed to his wrist, the man sees the seatbelt signal go off, meaning it's now safe to roam around the plane.
Pilot: *Intercom* Good morning passengers. This is your captain speaking. First, I'd like to welcome everyone on Nefertem Flight 42C. We are currently cruising at an altitude of 33,000 feet at an airspeed of 400 miles per hour. The time is 11:29 am. The weather looks good and with the tailwind on our side we are expecting to land in Rome approximately 3 hours ahead of schedule. The weather in Rome is clear and sunn-
Passenger: *Leans back and sighs*....*He looks inside his briefcase, revealing that it contains tons of Egyptian gold bars and a bag full of priceless gems, amongst them was a small piece of paper that contains coordinates, directions, and address, all labeled under "DIO's location", with a small note in the bottom that reads: "To Speedwagon Foundation Rome"*....*Smirks evilly* Enjoy your freedom while it lasts, Lord DIO. Because you can kiss that goodbye once I send your address to the SPW while I enjoy your riches.....
[???]: *In his ear* Ooh? Is that what you think?
Passanger: !?!? *Turns around to the voice but saw no one but a young couple behind him*...... *Shrugs and closes the case* Must be hearing things.
Flight attendant 1: *In front* Ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of the crew I ask that you please direct your attention to my co-worker as we review the emergency procedures. There are six emergency exits on this aircraft. Take a minute to locate the exit closest to you. Note that the nearest exit may be behind you. Count the number of rows to this exit. Should the cabin experience sudden pressure loss, stay calm and listen for instructions from the cabin crew. Oxygen masks will drop down from above your se-
~Plane shakes~
Everyone: ........
Flight attendant 1: ..... *Clears throat* Anyways, Oxygen masks will drop down from above your seat. Place the mask over your mouth and nose, like this. Pull the strap to tighten it. If you are traveling with children, make sure that your own mask is on first before helping your children. In the unlikely event of an emergency landing and evacu-
~Plane shaking again~
Everyone: *Starts getting scared*
Flight attendant 1: *Trying to stay calm* E-e-evacuation, leave your carry-on items behind. Life rafts are located below your seats and emergency lighting will lead you to your closest exit and slide. We ask that you make sure that all carry-on luggage is stowed away safely during th-
~Plane shaking more violently~
Everyone: *More scared*
Flight attendant 1: *Scared* What's going on!?
Flight attendant 2: *Worried* Something must be wrong at the cockpit! *She goes there* Captain! Captain, what's goin-*Horrified*-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Flight attendant 1: *Comes in* What's wrong!? *Sees that both pilots are dead in the cockpit, both missing their tongues* OH MY GOD! SOMEBODY KILLED THE PILOTS!
Everyone: *In full panic*
Passenger: *Sacred* O_O''''
Flight attendant 2: THEY'RE MISSING THEIR TONGUES TO!
Passenger: *Gasps in shock, realizing who caused this as everyone on the plane panics* ....N-no! How did he know I.... *In the corner of his eye, he his blood ran cold when he sees a message on the plane's wall written in the pilots' blood, it reads: "Massacre!"*
Flight attendant 1: The autopilot's busted! We need to land the plane! *Tries to pilot the plane*
Flight attendant 2: *Uses intercom* Attention passengers! fasten your seatbelts and stay calm! *Then switches to Cairo International Airport* Mayday! Mayday! Control tower! This is Nefertem Flight 42C and we got an emergency! Two of our pilots were killed and we don't know who the assailant is! Everyone on the plane is in a panic frenzy and the autopilot is broken!
As this was happening, a large, bloodied stag beetle watches the frenzy in the shadows in glee
The beetle: Hehehehehehehe! Stupid flight attendances! I see you failed to realize that not only I destroyed the autopilot but also compromised the control wheel! Even if you figured out how to pilot the plane! You're all already doomed! *Turns to the passenger* And as for you, traitor! DIIIIIEEEE!!! *Charges at him with its long sharp needle tongue out*
Passenger: *Sees this and panics* NO! WAIT! STOP! AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Islamic Cairo, Egypt
11:34 AM
Meanwhile back in the city, Medea and Gray Fly were walking down the streets of Islamic Cairo.
Medea: *Let's go* Alright we're here, I should be getting back home now, the house's butler's expecting me to bring home some burger meat for Lasagna.
Gray Fly: I completely understand, D'Arby can be so demanding with his requests sometimes.
Medea: Tch, tell me about it, if that jerk wants it so bad, why don't h-.......Hoooow do you know his name?
Gray Fly: *Points at the mansion* Here we are! The place we're supposed to meet up at. *Walks up to the mansion*
Medea: W-wait! Don't go in there! It's dangerous! *Sees Pet Shop letting him in without hesitation* What the!? *Follows the old man to the mansion*
Gray Fly: *Rings doorbell*
Enyaba: *Behind door* Yes! Yes! I'm coming! *Opens the door and sees him* ...Why, if it isn't Gray Fly! It's good to see you again! ^o^
Gray Fly: *Shakes hands with her* Hello madam Enyaba, you're looking as radiant as usual. ^_^
Enyaba: Oh stop~
Medea: *Sees this and it finally gets what's going on and why [Molly] reacted the way they did, he's one of DIO's Agents* !!!!!!!!!!!.....Oh my god are you KIDDING ME!?
Enyaba: Oh, welcome back, Medea, I see you became acquainted with Gray Fly! He's one of Lord DIO's top assassins representing "The Tower".
Medea: "The Tower"?
Enyaba: Yes, a tarot card which symbolizes the interruption of a journey by something unexpected and chaos.
Medea: *Standing there, shocked*...Okaaaay, what does his stand do?
Gray Fly: ...... *Looks up in the sky* He should be back any minute now....*Sees it* Oh, there he is.
Enyaba and Medea: *Looks up and sees a giant stag beetle, covered in blood and carrying briefcase with a severed hand still attached to the handcuff*
Medea: *Horrified at seeing the hand* Oh my god! There's a hand on it!
Enyaba: *Grabs the suitcase* Ah! Wonderful! *Checks inside and sees all the gold and jewels still in one piece* All of Lord DIO's gold and jewels have returned safe and sound. *Takes out the address* Well done on dispatching that traitor. *Crushes the paper* Gyeh gyeh gyeh.
Gray Fly: *Bows to her* Anything to please his excellency.
Medea: Where the hell did you get that suitcase from!?................*She felt [Molly] tapping her shoulder and sees them pointing at the sky.*
There she stood in horror as she watches a smoking airplane flying out of control above the city as it falls down west of the Nile River, down, down, down it went until....
~BLAM~
A loud explosion can be heard, and large quantities of smoke and fire fill the air, the vibration causes the car sirens to go off in the surrounding area to.
Gray Fly: .........There's you're answer.
Medea: ................................*Drops the groceries, but [Molly] catches it*
Enyaba: Alright, shows over, back to business. *Walks inside mansion*
Gray Fly: Of course. *Follows*
Medea: ...............I remember now...
Gray Fly: *Stops* Hm? What?
Medea: *Turns to him, disgusted* You're that serial killer on the Speedwagon Foundation's most wanted list, are you?
Gray Fly: ....Now what gave you that idea? *Exposes his very long tongue, showing a beetle shaped imprint on it*
Medea: *Walks up to him, glaring at him* You use your Stand to murder innocent lives and disguised them as accidents... Plane crashes, train derailments, and even fires. You're also responsible for a similar plane crash in the UK last year, are you?
Gray Fly: *Nonchalant* To you it was one of the biggest tragedies in human history. But to me, *shrugs causally* it was just another Tuesday.
Medea: *Furious, she tries to punch him, only to be stopped by Vanilla Ice* NGH!
Vanilla Ice: ...That'll be enough of that. *Drags her away* D'Arby's been waiting for you.
Medea: *Struggles as she gets dragged to the kitchen* You fucking monster! You're going to pay for what you did to the people on that plane! To every person from all the disasters you caused! There's a special place in HELL for people like you!...
Gray Fly: .......I swear, youngsters these days have no respect for their elders.
END
*The accident was loosely inspired by a scene from the Sci-Fi Thriller movie "Knowing"
Sorry for being late on this, it was supposed to be done a few days earlier, but I got sick and started sleeping in more because of it.
