#when i was like thirteen i read a fic where bumping faces was an irken intimacy thing adjacent to kissing

[sapphorror]

another day another inescapable spate of zadr brainrot but I think Dib should kiss the blank patch of skin where Zim's nose isn't.

Experimentally, as a rare moment of compromise, because rubbing faces is an Irken gesture of affection and Zim has strong feelings regarding the germiness of mouth-to-mouth contact. Softly, in public, as an expression of intimacy and a power play, because it singles out one of Zim's most obvious alien features. Aggressively, with teeth and heat, because there's a billion nerve endings there and it's so much more fun than just making out with someone could ever be.

Just. Dib kissing Zim's dumb alien face, y'all. Imagine it.

#when i was like thirteen i read a fic where bumping faces was an irken intimacy thing adjacent to kissing#and evidently it stuck with me#i dont remember anything else about the fic BUT I REMEMBER THAT#listen all that smooth empty skin is just free real estate#and as a fandom i think weve let it go criminally underused
