Episode 106a/b: Romancing the Tim
Written by Dither
A/N: I'm having a hard time getting Tak into character :( since she was only ever IN one episode, it's hard to think/write her. I've tried to make her all bitter, but softer in the heart somewhat after being rescued from drifting in space and taken in. I still don't have the hang of it though.
Scene 3
Fade In
Tak is sitting at a table, tinkering with Mimi. Filthy Juice-Sucker Tim is wandering when he recognizes her. He walks up to her, but she ignores him
FJST: Problem with your SIR?
Tak looks up, irritated
Tak: Problems? No, no problems.
Tak returns to her tinkering. A couple sparks fly, and a thin trail of smoke rises off of a circuit board. Tak tosses the thing across the table, furious. FJST is still standing next to her
Tak, growing more frustrated, turns on FJST
Tak: Can I help you with something?
FJST: Yes. I believe you can. Tak, is it?
Tak: Yeah?
They stare at each other for several moments
FJST: After a pause I'm Filthy Juice-Sucker Tim.
Tak: Oh! It's about time!
Tak grabs up all of Mimi's bits and shovels them into a plastic bag, and slings it over her shoulder
FJST: Sweeping an arm Shall we?
Stares at FJST
Tak: After another pause I don't know where your ship is.
FJST shakes his head and starts walking in the direction of his transport, Tak following him
FJST: Over his shoulder You know, I'm the most feared assassin in the galaxy.
Tak: Icily Fascinating.
FJST: I nearly took out you Almighty Tallest.
Tak: Sarcastically Really? The Tallest?
FJST: But Zim stepped in, and defeated me in single combat.
Tak stops in her tracks
Tak: You fought Zim HAND-TO-HAND?
FJST stops
FJST: Yes.
Tak raises an eyebrow at him, regarding him as possibly one of the stupidest creatures in existence
Somehow, her expression softens, and she walks alongside FJST
Tak: After a moment Actually, why don't you tell me about that?
Tak walks up to FJST and as they begin walking again, she walks alongside him, and FJST tells her about the duel, making wide gestures and Tak nods

Fade In
Dib and Zim are walking home together, arguing
Zim: . but if I did THAT, I wouldn't have enough power to make it back to this horrible rock of . dirt.
Dib: Rolling his eyes That was the whole IDEA Zim. You'd go away and . not . come . back.
Zim pauses in mid-step
Zim: Flailing limbs But how would that HELP me become LORD OF ALL HUMANS?!
Dib: Sighing heavily It was SARCASM Zim! I was saying one thing when I really meant the opposite.
Zim considers this for a moment
Zim: But that's STUPID! You imply that you DO NOT want Zim to rule all humans!
Dib: I DON'T!
ZIm: Eh?
Dib: I don't WANT you to rule all humans!
Zim: Perplexed Why not?
Dib: . ermm . BECAUSE YOU'RE AN ALIEN!
Zim: . so?
Dib: You would force the entire race to become your mindless slaves!
Zim: Considering Dib critically Would it really be SO different?
Dib opens his mouth to say something, but stops. He raises a hand to make a point, and opens his mouth again, but stops. He breathes deeply, and opens his mouth, but stops
Zim: Why do you mock fish-speak? Make human-noise!
Dib: Muttering It would just be wrong.
Zim: You want me to wear a what?
Dib: What? What are you talking about?
Zim: Just now . you said something.
Dib: No.
Zim and Dib stare in opposite directions, the conversation dead
(A/N: The following is the 2 talking simultaneously. Try and imagine in your big heads)
Dib & Zim: Soooo.
Dib & Zim: What?
Dib & Zim: I wasn't going to say anything.
Dib & Zim: Yes you were!
Dib & Zim: Nuh-uh!
Dib & Zim: Were to!
Dib & Zim: Fine.
They stop talking and look stupid again
Dib & Zim: I.
Dib & Zim: You.
Dib & Zim: Stop it!
Dib & Zim: You first!
They stop talking again
Dib & Zim: I'm going home/to my Base.
Pointing at each other
Dib & Zim: Hah! You said something different!
Dib & Zim: Ah! Quit it!
Gaz is walking by, finally catching up to Dib and Zim
Gaz: Glaring Are you to talking again? I thought I told you to stop breathing.
Dib & Zim: He's saying everything I'm saying!
Gaz: Psh. Losers.
Gaz pushes past them, shoving Dib into a wall and Zim into a sign post
Dib & Zim: Ow! My organs.

Fade transition goes from black, to space, as FJST's ominous-looking space craft flies by
Camera pans around the ship, sleek and red, and very sharp-looking with pointy spikes jutting off the back and sides. Kind of like a porcupine fish
Camera pushes through a view port and Tak is exploring the ship, Mimi in its bag, its head barely poking out the top
Tak: Such a marvelous ship. Tak runs a hand along a bulkhead .isn't it Mimi?
Mimi agrees with the SIR equivalent of a grunt
Mimi squeals at Tak
Tak: I'll finish fixing you soon Mimi, I just want to get used to the ship.
Tak sets Mimi down on a table that pushes itself out of the wall
Tak: You know, Tim said I could stay onboard and help him if we succeed in destroying Zim. He pretends to be tough, but he's like Jezo.
Mimi makes a rude-sounding electronic noise
Tak: Oh COME ONE! He was stupid enough to try and fight Zim HAND-to-HAND!
Mimi blinks loudly
Tak: .with one of those . sword thingies.
Mimi blinks again
Tak: And he wears those strange . robe . things. And that hat!
Tak sits down and Mimi rolls off the table
Tak: Grrrrrr. Tak scoops Mimi up off the ground and sets it back on the table. I'll make you better than you were before, I swear.
Tak puts her hand on her chin and stares into space

End of Scene 3
A/N: I'm sorry that I took so long to finish the third scene. It's been bouncing back and forth between my computer at home and various computers at Skool, and for a long time, sat withv only the first few lines, collecting dust. Well, now it's up! Yay!
