my dib headcanons :] some are things ive already posted before but idc it goes in the list.
- he's unlabeled, doesn't really think about his sexuality or gender or anything like that. doesn't care.
- idle games are his favorite kind of mobile games <3
- he wears skirts sometimes.
- he gets clothes from whatever the invader zim universe's version of hot topic is, and he thinks he looks sooo cool. yes he gets teased for this.
- sometimes he's creepy/unsettling without even trying to be, for example often times startling people cuz they don't realize he's even there at first, which gives them the illusion of him sneaking up on them.
- he is NOT good at remembering the "don't feed the trolls" rule of the internet. if you make fun of his posts about his paranormal experiences he WILL have many things to say to you about it. gaz always warns him about cutting that out but does he listen?
- if he doesn't wear his glasses he can't see ANYTHING. one time zim stole his glasses and wore them but it was. not pleasant for him.(either of them, really.)
- he wants to start a podcast but nobody wants to be on it. gee i wonder why.
- he believes in astrology, he also has a tarot card deck. - but he's also an atheist. pretentious about it. - he started his own website at some point due to being sick and tired of people on the truthshrieker forums being jerks to him, because hopefully he could cultivate his own fanbase of people who do take him seriously? i wonder how that's going for him. and yes there is an entire section of it dedicated to zim.

Could I request zim x reader where the reader gets anxious during social interactions but being around zim makes them feel more comfortable/confident and he notices?
Always cool to get Invader Zim requests, anon. Though I had a really hard time deciding if I should actually do this one considering it's really hard to know if Zim's an adult or not. He's a completely different species so even if he's 18 or above in human years we have no idea how old he is in Irken time. I think he's like over a hundred, but who knows maybe that's still a kid... anyway I didn't wanna disappoint so I just made them platonic with a kid at the school!! If you really wanna read these as romantic I can't stop you or anything but just keep what I said in mind! Anyway here are your headcanons!! Enjoy!!
(♡˙︶˙♡)
Zim x socially anxious!reader Headcanons (Platonic)🚀🛰🌌
Everyone in school is always screaming and it makes you wanna tear your hair out
Everyone in the world is always screaming honestly
It's kinda hard to talk to anyone or make friends
(At least you're not as outcast as that weird kid who's always on his laptop and screaming about ghosts...)
A new kid shows up one day and makes a pretty big impact
All the kids come to a general consensus that he's weird and also kinda stupid
He doesn't seem to notice though, in fact he thinks he's the greatest being who ever lived
Somehow his own foolishness makes you feel better about yourself
You find yourself hanging out with him and at first he's annoyed by this
But when you try to leave he's like "wait come back you can be my minion if you want-"
He thinks he's the best and you always tell him how awesome he is even though he sucks at everything because it's funny
Also you feel kinda bad for him
If you ever find yourself struggling in social interactions he'll come and scream at you which honestly just startles you more than anything
But it's jarring enough to help you as weird as that sounds
Basically it's like hanging out with a stupid person so you seem smarter by contrast
With your weird green friend by your side there's no challenge you can't face
Actually most challenges are pretty hard
You guys should just stay home and play video games
Those are the headcanons hahaha!! I feel like it might be redundant but whatever, it was fun to write. Thanks again for requesting these, I look forward to doing more in the future!! Much love!!

Ocular implants and pak headcanons; This is kind of a stream of consciousness post
Irkens are born with organic eyes, but they are replaced very very early. Like, before they are 'born' and given a pak kind of early.
They are implanted while the Irken smeet is still in their test tube. All done by robotics in the smeet incubation chambers. This is to ensure that when a smeet is hatched and given a pak, the pak can instantly connect and a smeet can see perfectly in an instant.
If an Irken was hatched with their organic eyes, they would not be fully developed and would not be in a position to function independently.
Fully Organic smeets, without a pak, would survive past hatching. But they would need to be taken care of from birth by a parental figure. Unable to see properly or take care of themselves at all - for at least a few weeks.
Paks and other implants make a smeet fully independent. Over time, they have become a crutch of the Irken race - and are unable to be removed once installed. They power too much of the little space bug to function without it. But an irken born unaltered, and taken care of through the early stages of life would survive.
The control brains of course would have them hunted down and killed if discovered.

tell me all of ur invader zim headcanons or like aus or whatever u NEED to talk more
i do have an au i am working on, though i think ill make a separate post for that, right now ill just talk about headcanons!!
disclaimer that u dont have to agree with any of my headcanons, this is just how i see them personally, and there are times when i draw them older, but that's only really for aus or something
also, giving young kids sexualities isnt sexualizing, kids can know when they like boys or girls more, or both! <3
DIB
dib is about 14 when i draw him (probably like 13 and 9 months old, still a baba)
5'0 in height
mexican
he is autistic! his hyper-fixations are aliens, and cryptids in general, i would like to think he also fixates on technology, and building things
the headphones i draw him in are sensory headphones! theyre just noise cancelling but they help him a lot!
he is trans FtM, but since hes young hes just on hormone blockers and practices deep voices and stuff, which is why his voice is still high, but still masc (he/him)
in the show i know he does hack into things, but i like to think he also programs a lot! he makes a lot of stuff for his own use, like for his computer he made a program that helps him keep all his personal info on zim, it has a password and everything so no one tries stealing anything
he has anger issues, not major ones, but he does get mad a lot and easily, he usually calms down by napping or watching supernatural documentaries
he draws a lot more than you think! i know theres silly doodles across his room, but i like to think he has a binder full of all his drawings that arent on his walls or anything, hes a weird kid, so hed probably draw like zims gut anatomy or something
he tries playing the guitar, hes not the worst at it, he just cant play a full song without messing up at least once
he has paranoia, its hard for him to sleep usually, so that's why he's almost always tired, when he cant sleep he stays up trying to find more stuff on zim!
he prefers tea over coffee! while he does love coffee, i like to think he drinks tea more cause of prof membrane, and he doesn't complain about it, his favorite tea is black tea!
i like to think that he knows he's not straight but just doesn't know what he is, he says omni whenever someone asks, but he doesn't really know
he loves, and i mean LOVES gir so much that he gets kinda upset that he cant have his own sir(?) unit, i mean who doesnt
his briefcase is actually a case for his laptop that he just uses as a briefcase at times, sometimes his laptop is in there sometimes its not, depending on what he's set out to do
ZIM
when i draw zim, i personally see him around the age 14-15 (14 and 9 months at least) still a baba
4'11 in height
zim has adhd, though on irk its just seen as him having trouble in a lot of things, or just as a defect, it doesn't bring him down though!
though zim is young, he did go through invader training because of how irkens are made just to be weapons and/or invaders
he used to be a scientist for the irken empire, but quickly got excluded from being one due to messing around and messing up a lot of valuable equipment, the turtle neck was kept from being a scientist as a kind of punishment to "remember what he did" but he just thinks it looks cool
he was never given limb enhancers like the other invaders cause he isn't a real invader, so he thought hed make his own cause he though maybe they just forgot to give him some, it does have a bit more advances than the regular invader one, since they're not allowed to enhance or add onto their enhancers without given permission
zim cant eat many earth foods, but he also cant eat many irk foods, , not cause of allergies, but because of his sensory issues, its hard for him to eat in general (his safe food is waffles!!)
irkens dont have genders, mainly prefered pronouns in which zims are he/it
he made his own hearing aid cause of how much it was pushed off on irk, no one really believed that irkens can be born with defects like that unless their antennas are damaged (only his right antenna is mostly deaf)
he sees gir as his little brother more than he sees him as a sir unit, he doesn't know the term brother, but knows he cares more about gir than anything else even if he finds him annoying
he forgets things, a LOT, in the comic i think its funny how fast he forgets things or pushes things aside, but i like to think he just, actually forgets that fast, even if he tries to remember it
like dib, he doesnt really know his sexuality, mostly cause of how irkens don't have genders, or don't really have the concept of genders in their head, so he just also thinks he's omni, with a masc pref
i like to think he has more of a over bite, but when he's not paying attention he sometimes puts his bottom row of teeth over his lips, just as a little fidget, or just does it while biting the skin off his lips (if irkens have lips?? idk probably not visible ones)
he is still growing, height wise, but when he's older his hight wont be the tallest, probably a few inches or so
GAZ
gaz is 11 and a half (11 and 6 months) she is also, a baba
5'0 in height, suck it zim
mexican
she has adhd as well, fixated on games and pigs
her safe food is pizza!! she loves eating it with her dad and dib, they just like being able to spend time with all of them even if she messes with dib a lot
she likes cryptids to a degree, also isn't as obsessed as dib is, just thinks that only SOMETIMES they're interesting
she tells dibs to make hacks for her in games, and even tells him to make games or addons for games, she usually plays the games dib makes for like a day and then never again
along with the guitar, she can play the drums! she likes playing them while dibs trying to sleep or nap
she is a lesbian and a demigirl! (she/they)
they have a lot of stuff for stress reliving in her room, like a punching bag and a LOT of pillows to punch, she sometimes puts a picture of dibs face on the punching bag, but its not as good as the real thing
she doesnt hate dib, she wont mind if he holds her hand while they walked home or hugged her from time to time, she just likes tormenting him cause its funny
she prefers coffee over tea, which is why they have coffee at their house, she prefers it over tea but would still drink tea if they had some, plus prof membrane basically makes them drink it at times, she prefers her coffee black, but wont mind it being super sweet either
the necklace that her dad gave her actually has a tracker in it incase she ever gets lost, they never get lost cause they're mostly at home, but just incase
she thinks zim is interesting, they think its interesting how he is and how it even got to earth, but she cant be bothered to find out, all she knows is that he's annoying
gaz is sort of blind, they have hyperopia (far-sighted) she does have glasses but only uses them if they really need to, she doesnt wanna look like a nerd like dib
she usually cuts her hair by themself, mostly cause of how when they go get it cut they usually give her a bob instead of what they wanted
probably prefers punk, goth, and emo over scene, but still admires others who can pull it off
has a little case for their game slave! its like a little bag, shes always sure to have it on themself so shes never bored
GIR
gir has no real age mostly cause of how hes a robot, but i like to think theyre always seen as a child, 8 years old to be exact
gir is autistic coded!
3'5 in height
they have no gender as well, obviously, but do have "preferred" pronouns (it usually gets called by it/they/he)
he really does care about zim and his mission, it just has a lot of trouble focusing on it, or functioning right, since theyre literally made of garbage
his sir unit build is the same as mimis (taks sir), but just defected with misprints and messed up parts, thats why he has prints in the same place as mimi, just messed up
adding onto that, he doesnt have the same big arm as mimi on his left, both his arms are from the builds that regular invaders have
a lot of his parts float, his arms can still extend and move freely, its just that they float , there is a sertain extent where if they go too far they just detach or recoil back to the body, they only detach if zim needs to fix anything on gir
a lot of his body can be detached, almost every single part, he can either still be sentient while they do, or be turned off
zim actually made girs disguise, like handmade, so it has different shades of green scattered around on it, its obviously fake, but people fall for it
the blue color on him changes depending on how he feels, usually its just other shades of blue (ex. dark blue for sad, bright blue for happy/excited, a little duller blue for neutral, you get it) , but when he actually takes orders is when he turns a different color (red)
a lot of the foods he eats can actually turn into fuel for him, depends on what it is, if its chips, soda, slushies, donuts, or any foods that would be on irk as well, will most likely be transferred into energy for him, if its foods like pizza, tacos, or just anything thats specific to earth, it will most likely get jammed into his system, to where zim has to clean almost all the time
a lot of his system is messed up, but zim fixed it up a bit, he doesnt know what causes gir to be crazy and silly and just the way he is, but he feels like it wont feel right if gir was just a normal sir unit
ill probably come back to this to add or fix some stuff if i ever feel the need to, but for now these are all the headcanons i have for them!! these are either adding onto or just new ones that werent on the refs i made for them, so yeah!! again this is just how i see them, you dont have to agree or anything

Hey what do you think the irken lenguaje sounds like?
Ooh, that's tough! I like to think it sounds like a rapid series of chirps and clicks and high-pitched throat vibrations, like insects chittering but a little squeakier, and a bit like how cats can sometimes chirp at people mixed in. Unsettling, insect-like, kind of cute in a weird way? Yeah. That's my Irken language headcanon I guess! :'D
Throw in some random screeching for good measure. Every couple of chittery syllables/words, just some screeching too.

I have a DaTf brain rot where they are partners in crime so deal with it. Headcanons:
Evil Team by CG5 is the first song that comes in mind with these two. That's their relationship.
Their partnership happened after Gaz and Zim joined forces.
They sometimes fight about who gets to destroy Zim. They come to the agreement that Dib will Vivisect him and then Tak will kill him.
Tak has a base at the forest after coming back to Earth. They hang out there.
Regarding the other hc, the Membrane household is almost always empty due to PM going to work, Gaz hanging with Zim and Dib hanging with Tak.
Tak is mildly interested in magic since there is no such thing in the rest of the universe. Not the she would admit it, she just gathers info from facts Dib says randomly.
Tak is not stupid nor in denial most of the time, she knows the tallest abandoned her like they did with Zim. She erased and destroyed all chips and commands of orders from the Irken empire in her pak.
She also made a pak for Dib. And she sure did turn on the hormone repressants so he doesn't grow up anymore.
The reason for the latter is because she thinks it's funny to see him mad about it.
Tak is pretty tall for the age she is disguising as. She stands at about 5'4" while Dib is 4'7"
Even if she let Dib grow, he would hit puberty late but it would hit HARD.
Tak allowed Dib to see blueprints of Irken tech and some science projects thinking he wouldn't understand them. Oh how wrong she was. He now understands even more about Irken science and tech than her. And she is actually impressed and fascinated.
Dib teaches her about Earth's climate, foods, etc. Tak was horrified when she discovered there were like more than 100+ languages and dialects.
He teaches her Spanish.
Tak was also shocked when she found out Dib would be like- technically the ruler of his planet in the future. It came even more as a surprise the knowledge that he didn't want to be that. Well, at least not in that way, he just didn't like the job. But the idea of contributing to the planet and people adoring him was a dream of his.
Tak: why is your planet's history so boring?
Dib: oh, no. It's not that boring. They just erase the funny and interesting parts from the main education because it's not important to them. The drama is pretty cool lol
Tak: Why would they do such cruel thing to smeets. This is horrid. Why would they cut the good parts
Tak obv flies her ship. And the ship is glad.
She gives me big sister and mentor vibes ngl.
Dib does her eyeliner from time to time. He nails it. He also curls her antenna if she is in the mood for it.
"What do you mean that's not an antenna? Is it your hair? It's a WHAT"
Me thinks it's all... For now...

I love the idea of ZIM being a complete suck-up to Professor Membrane, and it actually working. Imagine how angry Dib would be that his father gets along with ZIM more.

Frightsome realization brought to me by the beginning of the Planetjackers episode.
Tumblr media
Zim’s telescope, all the way from Earth, mind you, couldn’t just search for and fix onto other known planets in the Empire’s range, couldn’t just find the base of the local irken spy, but was in fact able to lock onto the current, exact position of other invaders themselves.
Every single one of them is wired into a database to the point of being able to immediately check one’s encoded job and identity from a quick scan. Of course they’d have the technology and the foresight to have PAKs constantly log and update intergalactic GPS data to their fleet databanks. That’s how Sizz Lorr dropped in on Zim at the Skool. That’s how the guards black-bagged him in order to bring him to Judgementia for his trial. Hell, it probably might even be part of how Tak found him.
Every irken invader, if not every Irken soldier, can be tracked and observed at any time by the empire. Some form of cracking this network may even be the method through which Zim obsessively checks in on the Tallests and where The Massive’s been lately.
But more worryingly, for Irkens at least, this would mean that permanently deserting and evading the empire is effectively impossible so long as there exists some Irken authority willing to put in the effort to chase you down. There is no corner of the universe where their criminals could find a lasting peace of mind. It also adds some more potential context behind their ubiquitous loyalty to their leadership, or why to Zim’s perception, there is no third option after success or being as good as a dead man.
