#you will listen to zim

[zimspak]

I LOVE MY DIB SO MUCH. HE DOESN'T REALLY GET WHAT BEING A KIN IS AND HE HAS NO IDEA ABOUT THIS BLOG BUT I LOVE HIM ANYWAY. WE ARE NOT DATING (AND I WOULDN'T WANT TO, WE'RE QUEERPLATONIC AND I BELIEVE IM AROMANTIC) BUT SOMETIMES I WISH I COULD HOLD HIS HAND. HE TREATS ME VERY GOOD AND WE AGREE ON MANY THINGS. HE IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE PEOPLE TO EVER GRACE THIS FILTH RIDDEN WORLD. IVE NEVER ADMIRED SOMEONE AS MUCH AS THIS. TO BE WITH HIM IN PERSON WOULD BE MORE THAN A DREAM. I WOULD TEAR APART GALAXIES IF IT MEANT HE WAS HAPPIER. I CANT IMAGINE A LIFE ON THIS URTH WITHOUT HIM.

IF MY DIB WERE TO EVER SEE THIS: I LOVE YOU

I think people take a bit too seriously Dib's taste in music. And I mean it in the way people say he'd only listen to punk/rock/metal.

May I remind you Jhonen said that if Lemon Demon existed, Dib's fav song would be Two Trucks? Two Trucks. THE two trucks. THE SONG ABOUT TRUCKS HAVING SEX.

I know Dib's deal is probably being inside the 2000s alt subculture. But like- cut him some slack. This guy could also listen to nightcore and silly 'chewable' songs (if you know what I mean). He's a silly kid at times. Let him be silly.

I am not immune to Zim in Dib’s old shirt.

This is a Zim who's universe-hopped (perhaps a zim that made it out of the ZimVoid?) and ends up finding an earth that is zim-less so he sticks around. Dib isn't around anymore in his home universe so it caught him by surprise

Dib is still on his zim-is-sus kick... but he's noticing some differences. Which honestly just makes him more suspicious of him lmao

Zim learns how to “modify his earphones so he can jam out to some sick beats!

(He will get electrocuted)

Hey y’all deranged post here

If you ship ZADR in a weird way (like aging them both up (in the nsfw sense) or having Zim be the adult and Dib being a child) literally get off my blog your actually gross

Zim is a child (he goes to school with Dib, acts like one, talks like one and in general is a child) and there are plenty of characters who are YEARS old and who are still children (The collector, that one genshin character, Etc) Not to mention that space works differently than earth (No Duh.)

Now if I see any proshippers spout any nonsense or anyone saying ZADR is proship I will actually blow you up.

ALSO DNI PROSHIP IF IT WASNT OBVIOUS.

zim learns the lyrics to kikuo/maretu songs and stays up all night listening to them and then scream sings hole dwelling because its one of his favs

Ya know, I've been seeing a lot of stuff for the hc of Zim and Dib as found family lately, and something about it was actually bugging me a bit. Like, I really like zade, zadf, and zadr, and I just couldn't understand why I couldn't really get behind zads.

And then I realized it's ENTIRELY because of Professor Membrane.

I do not like the idea of Zim being absorbed into the Membrane family dynamic, because in the show (the IZ source I'm most familiar with) Professor Membrane is a really shitty parent, and there is nothing satisfying to me about Zim just hanging out at that house with Dib and Gaz, adding another sibling to an already fairly miserable household situation. Sure, they can support each other. But what is the point of keeping them stifled in that environment if Membrane is not present and being a parent?

BUT, consider the alternative: Dib and Gaz saying 'fuck this shit I'm out', and spending more time with Zim at his base. Eventually they just go off on space adventures or something because why not? Found family in space! No shitty dad! Maybe if you reeeeally want a parental figure, you could throw in a dash of the dad-nar hc in there for some extra spice. And THEN you could have Zim deal with his feelings about HIS 'parental' figures. If Lard Nar starts being a real dad to this group of ragamuffins, how does that reframe the way Zim feels about the Tallest? How does Dib feel about the fact that an alien could (most likely) be a better dad than his own father? How do the two of them react to getting positive attention they've never received from a parental figure before?

And when I started thinking of it that way, I saw the potential. I still don't think it's my favorite. I think I definitely enjoy more room for flexibility and ambiguity with Zim and Dib, and making them view each other as siblings almost boxes them into that role a bit. But I can see the potential for a really interesting story there!

Provided Membrane is out of the picture.
