I’m rewatching the Invader Zim commentaries and here’s what they had to say about control brains!
The Frycook What Came From All That Space
Jhonen Vasquez: “The control brains were these Irkens that were basically bred- they were basically, sort of… I don’t know. Genetically engineered to not have bodies. Their bodies were just… brains. Uh, and they have actually giant versions of the backpacks that are plugged into-“
Richard Horvitz: “Who were they engineered by?”
Johnen: “The irkens!
Richard: “What I love is that they make something, hehe, that lords over them.”
Jhonen: “Yeah!”
Richard: “‘Let’s create something that’ll be in charge of us!’ Haha”
Jhonen: “no, no, no. The irken brains are created by- they’re created basically- they’re the ones that run everything. The Tallest don’t really do… the control brains are the ones that, you know, make the laws-“

Iyer-Kahn Employments: Food Service Drone
Tumblr media
“The lowest employment an Iyer-Kahn ever be given. Their jobs include cooking and delivering snacks, and nourishment to Iyer-Kahn who needed it. They are prohibited from doing anything else as they are practically the lowest of the low in terms of Iyer-Kahn standards, and are treated poorly because of their occupation.”
>>Next Rank
In case you hadn’t guessed what I’m doing I’m making a cool list of all the jobs an Iyer-Kahn are assigned to. Most of the time when an Iyer-Kahn is employed that’s their job title for life. Rarely, if an Iyer-Kahn does their job successfully, they can be promoted to a different job title.
I’m going off from lowest to highest so stay tuned for more!
Hope you like my little Iyer-Kahn sona :3 She’s based off of my old OC when I was 9. Her name is Mar! ^-^

I love selpa and all, but i really love to see insmeeth instead. Anyways, since you seem to like meekrob, do you have any headcanons about them? Or insmeeth?
Tumblr media
Meekrob: A species of energy-based lifeforms that inhabit a binary star system planet of the same name. Each Meekrob is composed of two or more singular beings making up one whole. The separate beings within the gestalt are identical and share a mind, though they also may have slightly different personalities. Meekrob are never alone – the separate halves often engage in conversation with one another, and thoughts are constantly cycled between the two minds.
Each part of the Meekrob has its own individual name that are combined to make their full given name; for instance, Insmeeth’s halves are, separately, named Ins and Meeth.
Tumblr media
Biology: Meekrob are functionally immortal. As energy beings, they never grow old or succumb to illness. Death is extremely rare – but on the other side of the coin, Meekrob births are also. Meekrob are genderless and asexual, and though they can procreate, it typically results in the death of the parent. The halves of the Meekrob combine their energies into birthing a new life, and the energy expenditure often results in the parent Meekrob living just long enough to witness their creation before perishing.
They are made of plasma and can control their temperature, though you risk being burned or zapped if you touch one! They feel like soft gel.
Tumblr media
The entities within a Meekrob CANNOT be split. If they are more than a few feet away for more than a few minutes, both halves will deteriorate, fall apart, and perish.
Leadership, Religion, and Life: The Meekrob are governed by The Eight, two ancient Meekrob, each made of four beings. Theirs is a peaceful society, that encourages friendly relationships with other species in the galaxy. They are very spiritual beings as a whole, believing in the energy of the universe itself as a higher power.
They gather in large numbers and “dance”, moving like jellyfish undulating through the ocean. They are very fond of music, and tend to change colors with the beat.
Abilities: They are adept shapeshifters, able to use their telekinetic powers to “read” other species and accurately assume their forms. They are also able to discharge electricity. Meekrob communicate with one another through telepathy, connected through a psuedo-hivemind; this method of communication gives them the ability to read the thoughts of most other species as well, including many lower life forms.
Tumblr media
Insmeeth: Young, angry and violent, Insmeeth is an abberation among their more peaceful kind. They possess a sadistic side that only grew worse the more their society shunned them. They learned to brawl from visitors to the planet, and later in off-planet fight clubs – their cunning, vicious instincts, and experience fighting are all things that contributed to their survival when Meekrob fell to the Irkens.
Bad at shapeshifting, but good at making people feel terrible about themselves, most would say that Insmeeth has few redeeming qualities. But they are also intelligent and introspective, and more than willing to risk death to protect the few they care for.

What if the Irken Tallest have an advisor?
It can be assumed that any Irken who isn’t Tallest, serves the Tallest. But what about the Irkens who are tasked with dealing with Irks interior politics at the Tallests’ behest? The noble, Taller Irkens, who squabble in their rosy cage, spread rumors, ask for more expensive snacks; I don’t imagine that the Tallest even want to deal with their most entitled Irken subjects. I don’t even imagine that the tallest themselves watch the news, or pay close attention to their off world Invaders. The Tallest require a secondary power, a type of manager or perhaps a vizier, to notify them of dissenters, wartime news, to deal with the public in their stead. OBVIOUSLY this is all brain drool and headcanons but, this guy whispered in the Tallest’s ear(? antennae?) in “Battle of the Planets” and I can’t stop thinking about it.
Tumblr media
I BELIEVE! That this position should be known as “The Imperial Claw”or “Claw” for short, referencing how the tallest’ of Irk sever their thumbs as part of the ritual to power. They lose a claw, they gain a claw, to pick up the slack on whatever mental/social tasks, that they cannot be assed with as the rulers of a sprawling network. The main purpose of a Claw can change based on the needs of the ruling power. Though I imagine under the reign of Tallest’ Red and Purple, this bitch is overworked as fuck

Any gesture that uses just the first 2 fingers is vulgar to Irkens. Zim was very confused by humans doing peace signs for photos or using finger quotes when talking
Doing this sign from the forehead means the Irken military in particular bc of the forehead symbol the elite soldiers have
Editing to add: Irkens would be APALLED to see any of these gestures used- Zim has just been on earth long enough that he doesn't care anymore lmao if he does this in other Irkens' presence they would smack his hand down so fast AND ALSO Zim isn't wearing any gloves?? This makes the gesture even worse!

This document serves as an official record of Tallest Miyuki's background, contributions, and significant events during her tenure as an Almighty Tallest in the Irken empire.
THE DOCUMENT BELOW IS CLASSIFIED INFORMATION CONTINUE WITH CAUTION.
Excerpts of transcripts from the logs found in the remains of Miyuki’s lab, M1:
“My first project seemed to turn out the greatest. He’s perfect. His data and code is so powerful it can crush civilization and organic life forms with a single shock of his pak.”
“The night his pak was activated he hugged the robotic arm and created a voltage shock so powerful it shut Irk’s power down for 4 years. I’ve covered it up as a system blockage. This just shows how powerful he is even as a smeet. *Laughs softly*”
“I’ve made my magnum opus. The other three of the four don’t show as much potential. However I have made adjustments to Model-2 to make up for any failures on Model-1’s part.”
“I’ve assigned Model-3 to one of the apprentices. Red is his lab name. However he has kept it, he can do as he pleases. He will be tallest after all.”
“I’ve installed height blockers into Model-1’s pak. We cannot control him if he gains a high rank… He is very intelligent. I’ll place him in the science group although I will keep him in training. He seems to take interest in Model-2 and the Purple individual that Spork has chosen as his primary apprentice.”
“We did it. Model-1 successfully opened a small interdimensional portal. A florpus created only using his Pak’s shock concentrated using strong emotions. I must note to add unirken emotions into later models. However that will not change normal policy on defective irkens. My… *Long pause* Smeet are special.”
“Model-3 has shown free will behavior. More so than I allowed for him… We all see how this later progresses…”
“Model-3 has gone rogue… my lab has gone and he has burned Red before fleeing with one of my experiments and Purple’s assigned assistant… I think I’ll lie down a while.”
“Model-1 has successfully created life I will… Yes… Yes I know… one moment- hey. Put that down-… Log I must end early. Model-1 gets a bit unruly. But it is quite entertaining. *Buzzing sounds and the tablet clinks, presumably Miyuki setting it down* Model- *pause* Zim! Put that down!”

Happy New Year everyone!
Going to start off day one right!
Allow me to share a silly head canon before I lose my nerve or get too sleepy;
By Irk's calendar, the Gregorian calendar New Year falls on a major Irken holiday.
Tumblr media
Zim "Roughly translated, it's called "Night when the Weaver Blinks." All drones are to remain perfectly idle for 15 hours and silently reflect on the services your fellow fallen drone provided for the empire and how you may better serve it in the future. The purple brain uploads all the stored and sorted data from retrieved PAKs of that year's fallen into the core collective on that night. It does not blow over well if you break the silence."
Reg "Why is it called that; the Night the...?"
Zim "It was called that since the dead eras. No idea what that's in reference to."
Reg "That's awesome. How did Irkens in the "dead eras" acknowledge that night?"
Zim "Probably in the same boring way; sitting around, quietly remembering dead people. Who cares? I'm looking forward to skipping it this year."
Reg "No! It sounds important. Hold on a minute, I want to look something up..."
[Had to drag Fifi into this (property of @a-wanderin-whirlybird
The Weaver belongs to @monsoonceroom )
Going to tag @a-wanderin-whirlybird , @monsoonceroom and @narlowemcfarlowe
Thought maybe on or a few of your deceased ocs might like to tell a story or send a message.]

Iyer-Kahn Employment: Cleaning Drone
Tumblr media
“One of, if not, the most humiliating jobs an lyer-Kahn can ever have. Their tasks include cleaning, organizing products, disposing trash, and sweeping and mopping floors. Cleaning Drones have 3 ranks: Novice Cleaner, Proficient Cleaner, and Expert Cleaner. If a Cleaning Drone does well in their assigned job, they can be promoted as a Serving Drone. Although a Cleaning Drone rank is better than a Food Service Drone rank, they still do not have that much respect from their peers.”
