[All while TAF deals with his new companion Eternal, and while Izam is still blissfully unaware of everything going on around him back at Dylan’s home, something can be seen carefully moving through the sky. A ship! The ship moves around the still dark sky of the town before sneakily landing in a wide area far from the houses and any possible human wandering around. There is a long pause before a hatch opens up and two alien figures sneak out.]

[Trax, the bounty hunter gives a smirk as he looks around the planet for a moment, observing the plant life around him and then moving his vision to the buildings. His smirk never faded as a little irken slowly comes to his side.]

[The bounty hunter gave a sigh before waving the irken off]

Trax: Look, kid-

Lyn: I told you, my name is Lyn.

Trax: Whatever. Look, I’m on a serious mission here. I may have agreed to let you come so you can check out my target and whatever, but don’t forget that-

Lyn: You said, [Lyn inturrupted] that I could take down this rogue irken because he could be a threat to my Tallest.

[Trax let out a deep sigh, rubbing a hand over his eyes before glaring back at the irken.]

Trax: What I said isn’t important right now. Look, I need to do my job, just...stand there and be quiet okay?

Lyn: Okay.

Trax: Good...

[Trax then pulled out a small device from his pocket and began to fiddle with it. Lyn watched him curiously before tilting his head and opening his mouth to speak again.]

Trax: Oh my...[He had to pause to avoid letting his annoyance become too great. After a deep sigh, he forced a smile on his face and answered.] Isn’t it obvious you little...ahem. I’m making a disguise. Aren’t you irkens supposed to be like experts on this kind of thing? 

Lyn: I’m still in training technically. 

Trax: Of course you are. [He let his fake smile grow wider as he knelt down to be eye level with Lyn] Why don’t you do something useful by your self over there while I work on my disguise, okay little one?

Lyn: Fine...and don’t comment on my height, please. That’s very rude.

[Trax waved him off again.]

Trax: Yeah, yeah, whatever.

[Lyn looked at him for a moment before stepping away. He looked across the city in front of them, wondering if there really was an invader here like what he learned back on irk. An invader with connections to a traitor at that. He has heard the name Zim before, but he was never up on the latest news so he doesn’t know much. But the Tallest has spoken about him a lot, so maybe he is important? Lyn wasn’t sure.]

[The soldier spent a few more moments looking off in the distance before a thought came to his mind. He never did inform anyone of his departure. Perhaps he should let someone know now? So with that thought in mind, he pulled out his communicator from his PAK and began to fiddle with it. It let out a small sound of static before turning on completely.]

[Trax and Lyn are open for asks.]

((ooc: Just letting you all know that TAF’s story with Eternal isn’t fully done yet, but while we wait for that to be finished, I wanted to bring these two back because their story is just starting to get going! So please feel free to ask them some questions for now and also please go check out Eternal’s blog as well!))

[izamthereblliousirken]

So... You're the bad guy?... -💥

[A small giggle escaped from Trax at first. He coughed and cleared his throat but more chuckles came out before he could speak. He smiled wide as he let more laughter be heard, this time much louder. It continued and it grew in volume until he was full-on bursting out in a fit of insane glee. Only after he forced himself to catch his breath and wipe a tear of mirth from his eyes that he finally managed to stop. He gave a content sigh and answered.]

Trax: I don’t mind the title at all. Because in the end, your opinion on me doesn’t change a thing. I’m still going to do my job whether you all approve or not. Izam will be captured by me and I win my game. 

Haha, a bad guy? Hahaha! Oh, you really are a little child, aren’t you? How sweet and naive. Hahaha! Oh, don’t take that the wrong way. Children are just a delight! So silly! I love it! Hahahahahaha!!!!

[Back over with Lyn, the irken heard the laughter and curiously returned to the bounty hunter.]

Lyn: Um what’s going on? What’s so funny?

Trax: Nothing to be concerned about. Just having a delightful conversation with these nice people. 

Lyn: Ah, I see. Um, that long-eared creature ran off at your laughter. I conclude they are rather skittish to noises. 

Trax: What? Oh, yeah, that. Whatever.

[izamthereblliousirken]

Why are you so into it for the money? Are you that desperate? or are you greedy? Tell me your reasoning.

Trax: I’m not desperate nor greedy. Money is good, don’t get me wrong. It gives me and my dear pet Pippy food to eat and clean clothes. It’s a harsh universe out there after all. I’m sure every alien out there knows this fact. 

But no. Money isn’t my motivation. Being a bounty hunter is all I know. I’ve been doing it since I was small. It’s fun. It doesn’t matter if I have to kill or capture. Knowing I have this power over people...well, I guess you can say that is what has gotten to my head. This is like a big game. And I do enjoy winning. Money isn’t my prize. The target is. Izam is. I can’t wait to find Izam and see the look on his face when he realizes he is trapped with no help. It’ll be thrilling.

TAF’s mini adventure part 2

TAF: So, you’re really okay with helping me steal Zim’s ship? Just like that.

GIR: Hehehe, yeah! I loooooves to help people!

TAF: Well that’s sweet of you GIR, but I do think it’s odd you are doing this. Aren’t SIR units supposed to...well not steal from their masters?

GIR: I’m supposed to do what now?

TAF: Nevermind. Just...keep...why the heck does Zim have a toilet in his kitchen? I may be new to Earth still, but even I know that’s not right.

GIR; It’s a special spot!

TAF: Right...Um, GIR, where are you even taking-WHOA!

[Before TAF could finish speaking, GIR pushed him at the toilet, the opening for the elevator popping up in the same spot before TAF could question it further. GIR let out a giggle as he jumped inside behind TAF. The two robots were taken down the second GIR stepped in.

TAF shook his head to clear his dizzy mind before shooting a look at GIR.]

TAF: Don’t do that again.

GIR: I don’t promise

TAF: Of course not. Say, where is Zim? We’re not going to run into him, right. I kind of want to do this without him knowing. You understand that right, GIR?

GIR: Hehehe, nooooooooo

[TAF let out a low groan, his head tilting down.]

TAF: This is going to be a loooong night.

[The elevator came to a stop and TAF walked out with GIR. The SIR unit grabbed TAF’s hand and led him down a corridor where lo and behold, Zim’s voot cruiser sat peacefully. TAF worriedly looked from one side to the other, half expecting to see Zim pop out, but the invader never did. Just where was Zim?

If TAF had more time to spare, he would probably investigate. Zim not showing his face meant he was most likely somewhere else in the base working on something that would surely cause trouble. TAF had to fight the urge to walk away as he forced all his attention on his task at hand. He turned to GIR, who was still holding his hand and smiled as best he could.]

TAF: Thank you GIR. I’m actually glad I ran into you again. 

GIR: Aw! Thank you! 

TAF: Heh, you know, you really aren’t that bad for a SIR unit. Even if you aren’t...exactly how you are supposed to be programmed. [As that was said, GIR let out a loud fit of giggles again, and it actually got TAF to chuckle softly in response.] But then again, who ever said that was a bad thing. [He moved to the voot getting ready to enter.] I’ll return this as soon as I can. It’ll be trouble if Izam and I kept this. So if your master notices it’s missing before I return, can you cover for me, GIR?

GIR: Yooooou got it!

TAF: I’m glad I can count on you, GIR. [TAF smiled at him once more as he started to climb up the cruiser, when suddenly GIR grabbed him from behind and pulled him into another hug.]

TAF: I...th-thank you GIR. I’m...I’m glad to call you my friend too. [TAF finally raised his arms and hugged GIR back for the first time.] Heh, you should really meet Izam. I think he would like you.

GIR: Is he nice?

TAF: Hehe, he’s the best. Now...[he paused as he removed GIR’s arms from him, and finally got inside the voot cruiser.] I’m off. I’ll see you later, GIR.

GIR: Bye-bye! Bye-bye!

[TAF was quick to start up the cruiser and was even about to take off when there was a new voice that barked out, startling the robot. He turned his head and there, finally was a very angry Zim. The irken got a good look at TAF and his scowl grew more as he ran to him]

Zim: GIR! Stop him!

TAF: Well, time to go! Bye GIR! [TAF quickly closed the voot cruiser, shooting Zim a smug look as the ship rose in the air.]

Zim: NO! Stop! 

[Zim jumped at the cruiser in one final attempt to stop TAF, but the cruiser was already too high up and TAF was fast enough to pilot it out of the room and to an opening so he could escape the base. Zim stood up from where he landed, glaring harshly at the disappearing ship.]

Zim: This...this was Izam’s doing. I know it. He will pay for this!

[izamthereblliousirken]

There was static coming through the transmitter before a voice could be heard “work you stupid piece of junk!” The voice sounded annoyed before he seemed to realize the signal got through “wait! A signal’s through! Hello?! Anyone who can hear this I need some help! I’m trapped in a desert, follow the signal and get me out of this sand!”

Izam: Whoever this is...they may be close. Maybe...maybe...

[TAF seemed to instantly understand where Izam was going with his thinking and shook his head quickly, pulling the transmitter away before his friend could grab it.]

TAF: No, no, no, no!

Izam: TAF, they sound like they really need help. They are trapped in a desert! 

TAF: Izam, I know you loooove to help those in need, but this is someone calling for help on Earth. May I remind you we still know little about this planet and who knows who or what is asking for help. For all we know it could be a trap.

Izam: They don’t know like they have any ulterior motives. 

TAF: No, I’m not having this argument with you. We know nothing about this person and what they could do to us if we do go to them. 

Izam: TAF, I’m a trained soldier. I think I can handle the situation if they do try something bad.

TAF: Izam, please. Please listen to me. I have a bad feeling about all this. I don’t want you to go to a random location on this planet and get hurt! 

Izam: But what if they are hurt? I can’t possibly just ignore them and hope someone else finds them. 

TAF: Fine...say we do decide to help. How would we even get to this desert? [TAF grabs the transmitter and hits a few buttons. Suddenly coordinates pop up on the screen showing exactly where the signal came from Sure enough it was indeed on Earth, but nowhere near the city they were in.] See? No way we could walk there and we have no ship.

[Izam thought it over for a moment and when the silence continued, TAF figured he won the conversation and smiled smugly. But when Izam spoke up finally, that smile vanished.]

Izam: Zim has a ship.

TAF: Okay, now you are really acting crazy.

Izam: I’m serious. We can sneak to Zim’s base-

TAF: No.

Izam: Grab his ship.

TAF: No.

Izam: And go to this person before noon tomorrow. It’s that easy.

TAF: No, no, no, no!

Izam: TAF, I want to help them! 

TAF: Izam, you already have Zim to worry about! Do not put unnecessary stress on yourself for a stranger!

[Izam glared down at TAF. He knew the robot was only looking out for him, but there was someone who clearly needed help and there was no way the irken would sit back and let this mystery person stay trapped in a desert! No way!]

Izam: Fine. If you don’t want to go and help them. Okay. But I don’t need permission to do things in life, TAF. 

[Izam put his disguise back on and was making his way to the door.]

TAF: Where are you going?

Izam: To find Zim’s base and get a ship.

TAF: Izam!

[Izam opened the door.] 

Izam: I should be back at lunchtime tomorrow. I’ll leave Dylan a note explaining I had to take care of something. He’ll understand.

TAF: Izam! No, wait!

[When Izam didn’t show any signs of listening, TAF let out a frustrated growl and grabbed his friend by the hand and yanked with all his strength. It was just enough to pull Izam back in the room, and let TAF close the door.]

Izam: TAF, I-!

TAF: I’ll do it.

Izam: ... What?

TAF: I’ll go find them. By myself. You already have some duty with talking to Zim tomorrow. You should focus more on that for now. I’ll sneak to Zim’s base and get his ship. It’ll be easier for me since I can scan and find any weak spots in his security. 

Izam: TAF, I can’t ask you to-

TAF: You’re clearly not going to change your mind about this. I can see that. I’ll go to the desert, scout the area and rescue the one in help. You stay here and focus on your interaction with Zim. 

Izam: But...but what if you need me?

[TAF smiled at the irken.]

TAF: I’m stronger than I look. You know that personally. I’ll handle this person, you handle Zim? Besides, this way you get your private conversation with him like you wanted.

Izam: ...okay. Okay, I...I guess that’s a plan.

TAF: It’s the only one I’ll accept. [He let out a sigh, shaking his head.] I can’t believe I’m doing this...

[Izam scooped TAF in his arms and hugged him tightly.]

Izam: Thank you, TAF. I know you don’t fully like this, but I...I have a good feeling about this. I swear. Who knows, maybe this will be a new friend for us.

TAF: Heh, a new friend...Let’s hope you’re right. 

[TAF jumped out of Izam’s arms and walked to the window, opening it up. He activated his disguise just in case and took one last look at Izam.]

TAF: Don’t do anything stupid while I’m gone. I mean it, Izam. I don’t want to come back and find you in trouble.

Izam: TAF, you are only going to be gone for a few hours. I can’t possibly get in trouble that fast. [TAF gave Izam a long look before the irken chuckled nervously.] Okay, maybe I can. But I won’t. I promise you. I’ll meet you at the skool tomorrow.

TAF: I’ll be back as soon as I can.

[With that said, TAF jumped out the window and ran through Dylan’s yard. Izam watched him leave until he vanished in the night. Once he could no longer see TAF, he went to the transmitter, sent the coordinates straight to TAF for the robot to use later, and sighed nervously.]

Izam: Whoever you are. My friend is coming for you. Just hang in there a little bit longer.

((ooc: And we move on to a new part of our story. Please go check out Eternal’s blog. It’s still kind of new. The one working on that blog and I are working together now for the next part of both of our stories, so please check them out too! 

Asks are still open, but the night is finally over for Izam. So far only Izam is open for asks but I will say that will change very fast because Zim and Dib will be back soon. Maybe GIR too. TAF is the only one unavailable for a little while.))

[izamthereblliousirken]

[TAF looks over at the still smiling Izam as he removes his disguise.]

TAF: You really had to kiss him like that?

[Izam blushes before looking at his friend.]

Izam: I just pecked him on the cheek. Just one more “thank you” for him after all he’s done for me. That’s all.

TAF: Sure...that’s the only reason you did it...

[TAF still had an edge to his voice, but there was a hint of a teasing remark to it as well, which Izam caught onto easily.]

TAF: Anyway, are you going to take Dylan’s advice and actually speak to Zim tomorrow? Because if you want my opinion, and I strongly suggest you listen to it, I say you shouldn’t.

[Izam went quiet for a moment as he thought it over.]

Izam: I don’t know. I know you are just thinking about what is best for me, but...maybe I should talk to Zim. Just the two of us.

TAF: Alone? Okay, extra bad idea.

Izam: TAF, I’m serious. I know Zim well enough. I can handle him much better than I did during skool hours. 

TAF: Izam, I don’t trust that Zim. And from how he’s been acting since he found out who you are, I really don’t think he has any good intentions when it comes to you. For crying out loud, he tried to kill you before you were thrown in jail! I’m sure if Dylan knew that little bit of detail he would actually agree with me when I say just ignore Zim! Only focus on him if he actually comes close to taking over this planet. [TAF lowered his voice a tad as he thought more about the other irken] And from what I’ve seen of him, I doubt that will happen anytime soon.

Izam: I can’t very much ignore him, TAF, and you know that. Sooner or later he and I will have to talk and I would much rather it be sooner. Maybe...maybe Dylan is right. Maybe Zim does still care about me too?

Izam: Not...fully true. [The way Izam said that showed he was definitely stretching the truth a bit] Look, Zim isn’t always the most compassionate person. [He saw the look TAF was giving him and tried again] Okay, he really isn’t compassionate at all. But I know Zim. He does have his moments. It’s just rare and you have to be the right person to find it in him. I know how to bring his softer side out. Maybe if I can keep him calm and have a civil conversation with him like Dylan said, maybe I can find some peace between us. I’m not expecting to be his friend again, but maybe he’ll be...be...

TAF: Less of an ass?

Izam: I was looking for a nicer way to put it, but yes. 

[TAF let out a loud sigh, closing his eyes.] 

TAF: Izam...I’m not going to get you to change your mind about talking to him, am I?

Izam: Nope!

TAF: Figured. [He weighed his options before lifting a hand up to his friend, narrowing his eyes to let Izam see how serious he was.] Fine. But I’m throwing in one condition. I’m going to be there. 

Izam: TAF-

TAF: I won’t speak. I won’t interrupt. I’ll just be in the back. I’ll only react if Zim does something I don’t approve of.

Izam: Knowing you that could be so much as look at me the wrong way.

TAF: Hey, I’m just looking out for you.

Izam: I know, I know. Sorry. Look, okay. You can be there when I do talk to Zim. But if I see you are about to interfere and I feel I can handle the situation you have to stop when I say. Deal?

TAF: ...

Izam: [Izam lowers his hand to TAF’s face to shake.] Deal?

TAF: ...fine. Deal. 

[The two shake before moving to the bed.]

Izam: Good. Now, let’s go to sleep. I’m actually starting to get tired again.

TAF: Yes, you should sleep. We still have a few hours before you go into work and I feel like it’s going to be another long day. 

Izam: I agree. 

[The two move onto the bed, fully ready to sleep the rest of the night. When suddenly the transmitter lets out a surprise hiss. Loud static fills the room, making both Izam and TAF jump a mile high in the bed before looking at the transmitter confused.]

Izam: What the heck is wrong with the transmitter?

TAF: I don’t know!?

Hi there!!! I’m Neeps! You guys look really cool :0 What are your names?? I bet they’re cool too! Ooh are you guys busy? Oh!!! One of you isn’t Irken!! What are you? :O you look SUPER cool!!! -Neeps 💥

Lyn: My name is Lyn. We are kind of busy, but we have time to talk.

Trax: No, we don’t! Will you stop using that communicator already!? How many times do I have to say that!?

Lyn: This is Trax. He’s a crodian, but easier just to call him a crod. 

Trax: I’d appreciate it if you didn’t.

Lyn: No need to be so hostile, Trax. Didn’t you hear this smeet compliment you?

Trax: Hmph...ah, fine. [Trax speaks up to address Neeps] Thanks kid. Glad to know you think I look cool, which I am of course. Heh. At least you don’t seem as bad as another irken I know...

Lyn: I know you’re referring to me. And I don’t care.

Trax: Yeah, yeah. Whatever. Say goodbye to the smeet thing already. I need to set you up for a disguise.

Lyn: Fine. Nice hearing from you Neeps. I hope you do well.

IZAM WAKE UP! YOU’RE HAVING A NIGHTMARE!

[Izam jolts up on the bed in a rush, his breathing was rapid and tears instantly began to gush from his eyes. He desperately looked around the room, forgetting where he was. He began to panic.]

Izam: TAF! TAF!

[He reached around forgetting where TAF was, and accidentally hitting the top of the robot’s head in the process. In just seconds, TAF woke back up, instantly on alert and sitting up ready to protect Izam.]

TAF: Izam!? What’s wrong!? Tell me! 

[TAF looked over at his friend and took a brief moment to survey the room. When he saw no immediate danger he started to piece the situation together and instantly calmed himself down as he crawled over to Izam’s lap and hugged the irken close. Izam instinctively wrapped his arms around TAF and just like that he was sobbing against the robot. Large fat tears sliding down his face as he tried to desperately forget the nightmare.]

TAF: Shhh, it’s okay now Izam. It’s over now...It was another nightmare, wasn’t it?

[Izam couldn’t get himself to speak, just shakingly nodded his head and hugged TAF tighter. TAF didn’t mind. All he wanted to do was provide as much comfort as he could for his friend in order to stop the tears from falling.]

[...]

[Meanwhile...]

[Dylan had just woken up to use the restroom and was about to head straight to his room to continue his sleep when he heard the muffled sound of Izam crying break the silence of the night.]

[Hesitantly, he walked down the hall and stopped just outside of the guest room. It was hard to hear with the door closed, but Dylan could definitely make out crying. He could have sworn he heard someone talking but figured it was just Izam mumbling to himself.]

[He wasn’t sure at first what to do. He didn’t know if it was his place to try and figure out what was wrong. However, the other option to just walk away and ignore it did not sit well with him in the slightest. He couldn’t just ignore Izam when he was clearly in some form of pain. So he took a breath and knocked before he lost his nerve. He wanted and needed to help, even if Izam wasn’t comfortable in taking that help yet.]

[Inside, Izam tensed up and looked at the door.] 

Izam: Y-yes?

Dylan: Izam? A-are you okay? [Dylan would smack himself later for the stupid question that had an obvious answer, but right now he could only think about making Izam feel better.]

Izam: Y-yeah...I’m...[Izam paused to sniffle] I’m fine.

Dylan: Izam...[Dylan took another breath before speaking up.] Izam please come to the door. I can tell you’re not fine.

[Izam looked at TAF who was silently shaking his head no. The irken then looked over at the still shut door. For a moment, TAF figured Izam was going to listen to his request and actually stay in the room, but one look at the irken’s eyes and TAF knew he was not going to have his way. Izam looked at TAF again, and whispered a soft, “I’m sorry” before standing up, activating their disguises, and went to the door, with TAF still in his arms.]

[Dylan felt his nerves die down a bit when Izam finally opened the door, fearing beforehand that he was just going to get ignored. He took that moment to take in Izam’s face and sure enough he was greeted with the hastily wiped away tears and wet eyes. The two stood in silence for a moment, and Dylan was mentally panicking when he realized he didn’t know what to do or say. So now he was stuck with Izam looking up at him expectantly. He was about to stutter out a half-assed remark when suddenly an idea struck him and he had to smile despite the situation they were in.]

Dylan: Hey?

Izam: yes?

Izam: Why?

Dylan: Trust me. I think you’re going to like this.

[Dylan took a step back, gesturing for Izam to follow along as he did and walked ahead towards the living room. Izam took one more moment to exchange a look with TAF who just sighed in defeat and gestured with his head to go on. The disguised irken paused at the guest room for a bit longer, looking forward to see Dylan waiting patiently, before finally getting the courage and moving to catch up.]

[Asks are back open]

[izamthereblliousirken]

So what are you guys going to do about Zim.

Lyn: Technically this is the only thing I said about the mission.

Trax: And that’s one thing too many, brat! What if this information gets to Izam, huh? 

Lyn: I doubt it.

Trax: You don’t know that!

Lyn: Neither do you.

[Feeling he wasn’t going to get anywhere with Lyn, Trax storms back to his original spot and furiously finishes his disguise.]

Lyn: Anyway...[Lyn returns to answering the question] We still don’t know where Izam is located currently. Trax believes that since this invader Zim once had a close relationship with him that perhaps he will know where Izam is now. We will interrogate Zim and get the information we need and then we’ll be on our way. Simple as that. 

#invader zim #irkensona #ask blog #Izam #Lyn #Trax #Izam the rebellious irken #ask the rebel #invader zim oc #deadlyspacepirateart

[izamthereblliousirken]

[Izam sat alone outside the training quarters, looking up at the starless night sky quietly. Unaware that his solitude was about to be broken by a small irken and the newest member of the invader training program.]

The smaller irken slowly approached Izam before silently sitting next to him, all the while, avoiding eye contact.]

Izam: Zim? What are you doing out here? You should be inside working. 

Zim: ...

Izam: Zim?

[Zim remained silent, which was already a major warning sign to Izam and he tried to defuse the tension by chuckling softly.]

Izam: Hehe, okay, okay. What’s wrong this time?

Zim: ...Zim is going to be a great invader some day, correct?

[Izam went silent at the question. Of all the things he expected his dear friend to say, it was not that. He expected another mishap with the vending machines, or perhaps another irken accidentally took his weapon for training that day, even though all the weapons were the same. You know, typical things Zim would get annoyed at. Not...not something like this. Izam clears his throat before speaking up.]

Izam: What are you talking about Zim? Of course you’re going to be a great invader. You know that. You’re Zim. the best irken ever.

Zim: [He scoffs arrogantly before responding to Izam’s response.] Of course I know this! No one else comes close to the greatness that is Zim! [He pauses for a moment before lowering his voice a tad.] W-well...you come close...not as great as me of course!

Izam: *chuckles* Of course Zim. I could never match to you.

Zim: Yes!

[There was a beat of silence for a moment before Izam spoke up again.]

Izam: So...why the sudden question? Not like you to question your own greatness.

Zim: It no longer matters. I got my answer and that is enough.

Izam: Zim, you know I’m not going to drop this. So, what’s eating at you?

Zim: Nothing! I just...I just...

[The hesitance in Zim’s voice was always a rarity and Izam was shocked to see the usual over-confident irken act in such a way. Then again, it wasn’t odd how it was only Izam who saw Zim like this. It was always Izam who knew how to see a side of Zim that most others never saw.]

[The taller irken didn’t hesitate to wrap a comforting arm around Zim’s shoulder, letting the younger one lean against him.]

Zim: ...Zim works hard, just as hard a you and the others.

Izam: Heh, I’d say you work harder than us.

Zim: Exactly! So why...why don’t I get the praise I obviously deserve! I’m great! Zim should have everyone else bowing at his feet!

Izam: Did someone say something about you again? Do I need to-

Zim: Izam, Zim does not always need you to stand up for me! I can take care of this on my own!

Izam: But Zim...you’re not alone. Don’t forget you and I are a team. Remember?

[Zim suddenly went quiet and he lowered his head so Izam could no longer look him in the eyes.]

Zim: ...a team...you say?

Izam: Exactly! Don’t you remember how after we finish our training you and I are going to become Irk’s greatest invaders? You and I will practically rule the galaxy together! Side by side there is nothing you and I can’t do! We’ll be as great as Tallest Miyuki one day! Even better! You just have to believe in that silly.

Zim: ...

Izam: Zim? [When Zim didn’t speak up, Izam tried to make him look back up, but Zim just pulled away more. It was then Izam took notice of something very odd. Zim’s skin...when did it get so pale? Was Zim sick? He was about to speak up again, but this time the younger irken finally answered. He mumbled something, and Izam had to strain to hear it.]

Izam: What?

Zim: I said...[Zim’s voice was off...it was rough and cold and it sent a chilling wave up Izam’s spine.] I can’t believe you, Izam...

[Zim’s words struck a deep blow for Izam and it was enough to make the taller irken begin to tremble.]

Izam: Hehe...wh-what? What do you mean-

Zim: Afterall...[Zim finally looked up.]

So izam looking forward to your second day on the job?

Izam: Now that I got over the initial shock of all that happened on my first day, I think I can be more prepared for when I go in again. 

Dylan: I’m glad to hear that, Izam.

[Izam smiles wide after hearing that.]

Dylan: Say, thinking about work reminds me. You and I should totally meet up during lunchtime from now on. I-if you want to, that is. Haha

Izam: I’d like that.

Dylan: Great! 

Izam: O-oh, I just realized! I’ve been keeping you up all night when you should be sleeping!

[Izam stands up in a panic, looking like he is about to run to the bedroom again so Dylan can return to sleep, when the human quickly grabs him by the arm and gently pulls him back down.]

Dylan: No, no! It’s fine, Izam. I don’t mind at all. I’d much rather make sure you are okay. Besides, I wouldn’t sleep well anyway if I knew you weren’t feeling better.

Izam: A-are you sure? I don’t-

Dylan: Izam, if I didn’t want to stay up with you, I wouldn’t be doing so. Still...looks like we never really talked much about each other. [He gave Izam a teasing smile to show he wasn’t really serious about what he was about to say next] I guess I’m doomed to only know you are a sugar lover forever, huh? Haha

[Izam deflated a bit, even know he could tell Dylan was joking.] 

Izam: I’m sorry...

Dylan: H-hey, no, no. Didn’t mean to upset you again?

Izam: You didn’t. I just...I feel bad I’m not telling you things about myself. I want to tell you about me, I really do. I just...I’m scared...

Dylan: Scare?

Izam: Scare you won’t like what you hear.

[A silence followed and Izam tensed up as it progressed. But lucky for the irken, it didn’t last long, as he felt a hand rest at the middle of his back that instantly eased the tension. He looked up and his eyes instantly locked with Dylan’s bright green ones. Dylan smiled sweetly at Izam, his other hand instinctively moving to grab at Izam’s.]

Dylan: Izam, I could never care about where you are from, who you used to be, or the things you used to do. Because despite what your past was, I can tell it has made you into this sweet, loving, and kind person I am with now.

Izam: ...

Dylan: I don’t want to push you about talking about yourself. I can tell your past is a sensitive topic for you. But, I’m always ready to listen. Whenever you are ready. 

Izam: Dylan...I-

[The silence returned, but it was much less heavy on Izam then the previous one was. Dylan didn’t seem to mind either as he patted Izam’s hand before leaning back on the couch again, giving him some space. The two seemed content with just sitting in the dark living room quietly, but like always, the silence couldn’t last long. Izam gulped nervously and looked down at his lap. He debated the thought running through his mind. He knew what he would say could land him in dangerous waters, but...he couldn’t keep his life a secret from Dylan. Not after all the human has done. He wouldn’t tell Dylan everything, but...there was nothing wrong with revealing just a little bit, right? He took a calming breath and opened his mouth.]

Izam: ...I used to have a brother...

((ooc: Hey guys, sorry for the lack of pictures in this post. I wanted to draw at least two extra pictures, but I’m gonna be honest, this has been probably the worst week for me in a while and I lost soooooooo much motivation in things due to what has been happening to me. I’m getting better, I promise, but I just don’t have a lot of energy to draw. But I’m still going to upload posts for a while and even add some drawings as well. But I’m sorry if it ends up being mostly, if not, all texts for a little while.))

We made it to Earth! And looks like Dib is now in the picture!

Asks are still open btw, so feel free to ask Izam and TAF anything. Dib is not up for asks just yet, but he will be soon…ish, so stick around.

I know this isn’t the thank you picture for the 50 followers, that’s coming soon, but before that and before I get back to updating Izam’s story (which is also coming soon by the way) here is this cute picture I made randomly of Izam, Lyn, Zim, and TAF in winter clothes. Don’t know why I drew this, but I love it.

Did you meet anyone inside mooping 10?

Izam: I could go on and on about some of the prisoners I knew. But don’t be fooled, just because I knew them all, doesn’t mean I really ever got along with any of them. In fact, most of the other prisoners hated me…mostly because I’m irken. A lot of the prisoners from my section lost their planet because of my people…soooo…yeah, you may get the picture.

I mostly remember these two who thought they ran the place just because our warden was…really bad at his job. Like really bad…Anyway, they were Zuk and Scods. Typical thugs, but they definitely had some power since the guards didn’t care when they acted up and the warden didn’t mind them either as long as they didn’t make a wad…Yeah, don’t ask…trust me. It’s a big, annoying thing…Anyway-

Izam: If anyone has been at Moo-Ping 10 for a long time, they eventually come across the two and you’d be lucky if they left you with the clothes on your back. I was definitely one of their favorites to mess with. At first I would fight back, because even though Scods (the muscle) was tough, he had no real skills when it comes to fighting. However, because the warden and the guards hated me so much I would always be the only one punished and those two would just be sent away laughing at me as they did. So I just eventually stopped trying. I have plenty more stories related to those two idiots…but gosh, thinking about them gives me a headache. They are that annoying. 

Let’s see…who else. Oh well there was also…

[An image of a certain alien from Izam’s past rushes to his memory and instantly he is stuck in a blushing, panic mess.]

Izam: Haha! Sorry, don’t mind me! J-just trying to think of an interesting person to talk about! Yeah! Hahaha! Hmmm Oh yeah! 

Izam: He wasn’t really rude to me…one of the few who didn’t mind. But was loud and liked to sneak up on me to strike a conversation. I am kind of glad I wasn’t put in his cell though. He was nice, but weirded me out sometimes. 

Izam: I couldn’t stick around long, so I didn’t get to find out more about that alien or why he was in there. I heard a rumor he escaped by blasting a hole in the wall or something. Never got to find out if that was true. This was not long before I escaped myself, so not like I had the chance really. Hope he did get away. From the looks of it, he didn’t seem like a typical prisoner, you know?
