I have decided to put the answers of all short reviews here, I hope no one minds that small change.

He23t: Invader Zim!

Me: yes, the main characters of that Nickelodeon cartoon are going to be very important characters, though minor in the sense of importance, but the actions taken behind the scenes are going to be quite important.

STR2D3PO: So Luna just agreed to let complete strangers stay at her house without her parents permission? Yeah something tells me they won't be happy.

Me: even though she agreed to let them stay in her parents house, despite the fact that all three are strangers, do you believe that Dib or Gaz are dumb enough to realise that the house isn't hers?

MasterCaster: It's very rare to see a Lincoln and Haiku ship anywhere and ther are literally 2 fics that is about this ship. I like the story, The only problem I have with it is that Luan and Maggie bit. Now I'm not going to make a big deal out of it. And even though I'm not fan of the ship, it won't stop me from reading your story. Looking forward to chapter 6!

Me: is there a particular reason you dislike the lesbian relationship of Luan and Maggie but are comfortable with an incestious relationship between a younger brother and his sisters? I am asking out of sincere curiosity.

SonAwesome: Something tells me this dudes gonna be an important character to Lincoln in later chapters.

Me: which "dudes"? Gustav and the nameless professor? And to answer your rather vague question. . . no.

And to all those who took the time and had the modesty of wishing my family and I good luck for the horrifying 8.6 Richter scale earthquake, I am sincerely grateful for your consideration.

To all those who didn't say a word, I would like to know why did all of you never wrote anything.

Intoxicating Relationships

A Formal Invitation

Zim looked at the rocker as he adjusted his eyeglasses. Right before Dib could respond, two things happened simultaneously.

The front door that connected the outside to the living room was opened by Bobby, who seemed troubled, and the rockers cellphone started to ring. Everyone, except for Haiku and Maggie, got startled by the sudden ring of the cellphone.

Not wanting to keep whoever was calling her waiting, she grabbed her cellphone and answered "hello? Oh, hi Sam, what's up?" The rocker blinked a couple of times before responding "yeah, I'm at my house, why?" Some few seconds passed before Luna grabbed the televisions control remote and turned on the television on the news channel.

A brunette in a red dress appeared in front of the televisions screen as she stared directly at the camera. Behind her is the police station where Gustav is currently detained, a bit roughly it seems, by two policemen.

"Emily Richards here with a new development on a dire situation that happened here, in Royal Woods Michigan" the cameraman shifted his camera slightly to Emily's right, allowing Gustav to a appear in the shot as well as Emily and the two policemen "today at 3:30 pm in Royal Woods Highchool, a group of teenagers were able to stop and prevent a horrible act that was almost committed by Gustav Leblanc, as you can right now is currently being restrained by the local police authorities"

Right on queue, the cameraman focused the lens of his camera directly at Gustav ant the two policemen "we have here concrete evidence that Gustav has been perpetrating several cases of what is considered sexual harassment and possession of underage pornography by having under his possession several photos of what seem to be young girls who seem to be teenagers years"

Everyone in the room stared at the televisions screen with mixed expressions. Lincoln's free hand clenched as his eyes glared at nothing. Luan laid a hand on Maggie's shoulder in order to comfort her girlfriend. Luna's face got red with anger. Gaz chewed a piece of bubblegum while looking with a bored expression at the tv. Dib is busy texting someone via his cellphone. Zim readjusted his glasses as he red from a small pocket book.

"However, the most disturbing part of it all was the fact that, if he hadn't been stopped, he would have been successful in the blackmailing of a teenager of Royal Woods Highschool, forcing her t-"before the newswoman could continue, Maggie grabbed the control remote and turned off the television.

"I believe" a Zim slammed his book shut before standing from his seat " that everyone present here needs time to rest and relax, especially Lincoln, who, thanks to the now current situation regarding Gustav, has to think very carefully on what he wants to do regarding the scholarship program he might be able to enter"

Before Zim could continue speaking, Luna interrupted him "relax!?" She managed to make Haiku wake up thanks to her yelling "You want us to relax!" Luna walked, hands clenched at her sides, towards Zim who seemed unimpressed at her outburst "would you feel better if I said 'let's go beat Gustav senseless?'".

The moment that sentence was finished, she blinked in surprise "you're letting you anger cloud your judgment, making you prone to do something you will seriously regret" Zim took two steps forward a before laying a hand on her left shoulder "I know you are angry, and you have every right to be angry" Zim grabbed his cellphone before dialling a number "but you will have to trust me when I say that he will be behind bars for a very long time".

Both Dob and Gaz rose from their seats as they followed their guardian out of the house. However, before any of the three stepped out of the house, Zim turned around "considering that Lincoln is a candidate, all of you are welcome to the private estate of the Membrane family".

"Why all of us?" Luan asked Zim, making the first time during the whole endeavour that she has spoken with the seriousness the situation demanded.

Zim blinked in a lazy manner before answering "because your younger brother was chosen to be part of the Prozpective program" noticing that his glasses are falling from their rightful place, Zim readjusted them again "it is also courtesy for all those who are candidates of the Prozpective program to be treated as guests in the nearest private estate".

Zim turned around and continued walking "and since today something exceptional happened, everyone present is invited as well". Both Dib and Gaz stopped walking when they heard what Zim said.

Dib turned around and looked bewildered at Zim "you do know what is going to happen once my dad gets informed of what you're going to do. . . right?" Zim turned around and stared at him with a bored expression "your father has no control over me Lord Dib, only those with Membrane blood have control over me".

A faint smile creeped unto Zim's lips "the only authority I recognise are of those I swore fealty to" Zim laid a hand on Dib's shoulder "you have to trust me Dib".

Gaz, noticing the attention that her brother was getting, crossed her arms as she turned to a side while glaring at nothing. Zim, not being oblivious, walked towards her.

"I do believe" Zim spoke as he gently laid a hand on her right shoulder "that it would be fun for the two of us to have a sparring match" Gaz remained motionless before moving her head slightly upwards in order to look at Zim ". . . fine" Gaz turned around and stared directly at Zim "but remember one thing, Zim".

Zim raised an eyebrow as he waited patiently to her to elaborate. Suddenly, Gaz stretched her arm towards Zim's shirt before clasping it and forcing him to be face to face with her "you are my servant"

Zim blinked a couple of times before he smiled at Gaz "that I am, Lady Gaz" Zim said before winking at her.

Gaz's eyes suddenly widened once she realised what Zim just did. She shoved him before and turning away to hide the very faint blush that has now appeared on her pale cheeks.

Zim straightened his wrinkled clothes before staring at Lincoln "I have already sent invitations to you, your parents and your siblings that are residing here in Royal Woods".

Just as Zim finished speaking, a car drove quite quickly towards Dib's parked car before stopping "the direction of the private estate as well as your personal ID is inside the contents of the email".

The female servant that took Gustav to the police precinct opened the door for Gaz as Zim continued to speak "however, I will send someone today to make sure no. . . unpleasantries happen".

Dib, who was about to enter his car stopped dead in his tracks when Zim said that he was going to send someone "Zim. . . are you going to send who I think you're going to send?" Dib couldn't help but sound exasperated at the implication of him being here.

"I am afraid I am Lord Dib, despite your personal opinion of him, he is the best at what he does". Dib sighed before running a hand over his hair ". . . you're right, he deserves another chance, personal opinions or not, he deserves another chance".

"Don't worry Lord Dib, he already graduated from the Manchurian Program, his temper isn't volatile any longer" Zim reassured Dib as he opened the door to Dib's car. Taking the invitation, Dib entered the car before turning the engines on.

Just before Zim entered the car in which Gaz is in, Luna grabbed hold of the sleeve of his shirt "who is coming here and is Dib scared of him?"

Zim couldn't help but chuckle at the memory of that day "he first made out with the Lord's girlfriend. . . after that the intoxication grew worse and he then puked all over the young girl" Luna and Luan laughed at what Zim said, and thanks to the serious look on Zim's face only made it even more hilarious for them.

"She still hasn't answered the phone calls the Lord has made. . . I should inform the young Lord that her family has moved out of that house" Zim added as he side glanced at the two laughing sisters who, after hearing that, laughed even harder.

"I wonder why are they laughing" Dib thought before he has the horrible urge to sneeze.
