S.A.D [ZaDr] - Invader ZiM Christmas AU

December 29th

Holy Hell.
That was. Terrifyingly exciting to say the least. Moreso terrifying.

I saw the Massive.
I almost went in.
I might've! It was fuzzy... my brain I mean

So. What happened.

ZiM, GIR, and I took another space trip—as usual. However, this time we went further than normal... and ended up running into the Massive (we didn't literally run into it, we just...ah, you get it.). I don't know if ZiM did it on purpose... but he sure as hell went pale.

In fact, he almost looked like he was about to cry.

But, before he could... I suggested we try to space-vandalize it or something like that. He suggested sneaking on, but again, I'm not sure if we did... weird space gas and tiredness messed with my memory. I just... remember getting kinda scared. A lot. And ZiM being sad.

But I ALSO remember what the Massive was LIKE!!

It was HUGE!!! Well, the name kinda gives that away, so... and!! It had several lazers on the outside, and I'm guessing HUNDREDS of more on the inside...maybe canons!! Lazer canons...

There's an ENTIRE portion of it filled ONLY with snacks—not surprising one bit, but it gives me a clear example on just how much this species feels about snacks. Amazing.

There was even a big neon sign in front of it!! Does every place just have those??

The ship itself... I wonder what it was made of...a special Irken metal? Or a different planet's? Or something from our periodic table? God, ZiM might know, but I don't wanna ask him right now. He's still pretty... not into it right now.

When I said he almost cried when he saw the ship, he. Definitely did when we got back home. Then, he just seemed... out of it the rest of the day. He didn't smile, talk much, or even wanted to watch a bad Earth movie.

He had absolutely zero motivation or energy.

He tried to act happy when next to me, but I could see through it.

I know he really cared about his planet and honor to Irken society, so I know how terrible a reminder of how he's no longer allowed there must make him feel.

But I'm still here with him...isn't that enough?

Or will he try harder to regain more validation?
