why did zim even... HAVE... miniature microscopic flags that he could plant down in dib...????

[short-and-ugly]

the animators were given a choice between his PAK and his rolls. they made the right choice

[short-and-ugly]

the smeeteries are so fucking cool for absolutely no reason. look at this shit. "of course i do" awfully dystopian thing to say zim when you immediately start thinking of robots in place of parents. is that why youre surrounded by machines? are you trying to compensate for the family you never had? that no one of your race has? what void are you trying to fill

literally drilling holes into his little baby spine. does it have to be done as a smeet? complications would probably arise if an adult irken with a more developed brain had a PAK installed. would the meat brain and the computer brain fight? duke it out? weve seen what happened with zib, so no matter what, im thinking any situation with a brain and a pak interacting never ends well.

i wonder when the optic implants are done. immediately after this? maybe in the tube chute described in the trial.

smeets really do go through hell the first few minutes of their life and they dont even realize it because theyre incapacitated for the first part and then everything else after is "standard" according to their PAK

dib bully hours

whyd he even kick zim in his nonexistent balls!!!! dib did you think itd hurt him the same way it hurts you?? like it dont feel too good i imagine but theres nothing there!!!!!!

[short-and-ugly]

SCREAMING WHAT THE FUCK DIB!!!!!!!! THAT WAS THEIR AWKWARD FAMILY PHOTO THEY GOT TAKEN AT THE MALL!!!!!!! WHAT THE FUCK

gir seeing zim as a threat to the mission because.... zim really Is a threat. all the time constantly to himself. mostly probably intentionally.

[short-and-ugly]

"you were my servant once!"

"yes. i didnt like it."

:(

[short-and-ugly]

laughing as they remember a call from zim wherein he was in agony, as blorch gets absolutely decimated in the background. there are still rat people left! guess skoodge's job was all just "ensure theres nothing there that could pose a potential threat to the incoming armada"

and he sure as hell did do that.

so dramatic! so much show! you didnt need to go that hard you short prick. those rat people were all gonna end up dead in the cannon sweep! what was the point? you just like getting your hands dirty? wanted some action?? misinterpreted your job description????

[short-and-ugly]

see what i mean. See! What I! Mean!

flobee isnt even TRYING to disguise himself. all the invader disguises are notoriously bad and my LEAST favorite part of fanon is thinking that zims is the only one like this!!!!! THEYRE ALL STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!!! or you could get headcanony and explain it away with. space pheromones. or whatever. hypnotic suggestion. eh???

[short-and-ugly]

skoodge cutting straight to the point as the commander was starting to get annoyed with everyone giving him MORE than just their name. kissass.

[short-and-ugly]

hes so cocky i want to push him down a flight of stairs

[short-and-ugly]

piggybacked again. he just loves being up there. and zim just loves being unbothered by it.

gir lives there now

[short-and-ugly]

hey-ho! pretty good shot of the base here! can hardly ever find images of this doorway just by looking it up. i didnt know there was a squid painting there. or a lightswitch. nice.

[short-and-ugly]

stupid little lip jut. and that slight forward lean. hes trying so hard to look cool.

[short-and-ugly]

using his PAK legs to appear taller but hes still so TINY!!!!! TINY LITTLE ZIM SMALL LITTLE THING!!!!!!!

SHORTASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"i only hope the irkens HAPPEN to use the same operating systems as me"

successful ding

what is this. really. no seriously. first dibs tech looks strikingly familiar to zims -- easy to explain away. storyboard/design artists just mingled the irken tech with earth tech too much accidentally and made it look too similar, or in-universe, he reverse-engineered irken tech. but why would he say he "hopes" they use the same operating systems if he really DID reverse-engineer? wouldnt he be more confident?

i loathe matpats theory on membrane being an irken but im starting to feel like the connection between membrane and irkens in general can actually hold water. not a lot. maybe like. a teaspoon. but its there.

maybe he met some as a kid, learned their tech, got traumatized, returned to earth, whatever have you. or stumbled across a wrecked ship on earth and decided to use it for his own purposes. idk. something.
