Mabel with strained eyes sat on the couch having a one mile stare and Gaz also sat on the other side of the couch had a similar expression as well.
"It's been 4 decades, Gaz." Mabel uttered with a sense of Doom "4 decades of constant Boys Night and loud nerd raging with lack of volume control over and over until- "
"It's been 4 days, pixie girl, but yeah it feels like decades." Gaz finally responded with a sense of gloom.
Ever since Dipper introduced Zim and Dib to his board game, the three had 4 days straight of Guys' Nights. At first it was just Dib and Zim who were channeling their rivalry in this game with no sense of volume control but then on day 2 Dipper who, supposedly the one trying to mitigate the competitiveness of those two, joined the louding.
By the Cloud Pigs when Gir and the Vortrian kids joined in on day 3… there was no single good night sleep for Mabel, she now fully understood why Dipper hated her Girls Night Sleepover as much as she is happy for Dipper finding new friends and saw this as an improvement on Dib and Zim's animosity.
You would think since Gaz doesn't sleep in Mystery Shack she would be fine but nooo, every day since then it was Dib or worse he and Zim together taunted on who won the game , who was the top and geek stuff she had no frame of reference. She couldn't believe it but she came to prefer the paranormal talk and Zim's next 'Evil Plan' slightly more than this.
It wasn't just them though, Stan kept complaining about not having a good sleep due to how loud they were and when Ford went to tell them to lower the volume he instead joined them!
Speaking of the big headed boy and the alien invader, they were currently behind them having an inane argument like always.
"- I'm just saying, as you yourself said, Wyverns and Dragons are two different things!"
"YOU'RE LYING!" Zim accused Dib of lying with a pointed finger.
Dib with a flat look that said 'I'm done with this nonsense' brings an audio recorder and plays it "Oh please! Wyverns are on two legs with winged arms dragons are on all four, is not Dookie science!" The audio ended as Zim stared gaped.
"You…taped it?" the alien asked rather meekly in disbelief while his pointed finger fell down.
Dib drily replied "Do you have any idea how many times you used that same tiresome dookie excuse whenever you contradict yourself? Of course I would tape it."
Zim stood there frozen until, he made conflicted expressions in his face and erratically gestured his hands like he was imagining strangling Dib or tearing his own fake hair and then his own antenna knowing he has been flatfooted until he finally exploded up to the ceiling and cursed "CURSE YOUR HUMONGOUS HEAD AND ITS EVER GROWING INTELLIGENCE!"
The Membrane boy smirked "You do realize you just complimented me, right?"
Zim once again froze, finding out he made an error only to then snap back "YOU'RE LYING!"
Dib's response was to play his audio recorder again "CURSE YOUR HUMONGOUS HEAD AND ITS EVER GROWING INTELLIGENCE!
That was when the Irken finally lost it and tripped his own fake hair with a shriek " YEAA AAAAAH !- !"
A shriek so loud that Wendy in the cashier place reading her magazine then dropped it and closed her ears.
"Nyah." Minimoose's simple sentence as he flowed across the Shack's rough translation was 'If Master wasn't an Irken, I would say he is suffering Constipation'.
Melody while playing with the Vortrian Kids glanced back at where the shriek was.
Soos simply replied as he came out of the bathroom "Hehe, this is why Mr Pines taught me to never use the same swear word."
Dipper, while writing in his personal journal, looked back.
Gaz and Mabel still stared without turning their eyes over.
"I can see the future, I'm gonna kill them both and then your brother." the Membrane girl uttered softly and then tried to get up making Mabel stop her by waving a hand.
"Wait! What if…we give them a taste of their own medicine?"
The purple girl stopped and sat back with an inquisitive look "I'm listening."
Mabel shouted to Stanley "Grunkle Stan! Is it okay to have Girl's Night?
The conman Pines got up from snoring on the table with a list in his hand and a pen"Huh? What? Has the wall street fallen again? Sure…." he then fell back to sleep again, Mabel misinterpreted that as a yes or maybe she knew that and used it as an excuse.
"Thanks Grunkle Stan! Also, whatcha doing with the list?
That actually made him get up from his half-sleep and quickly hid the list behind his back."
"I'm trying to…add new words to my list." he said rather failed and quickly walked away before his grand niece
What he did not tell them was a list of swear words because he thought that man deserves not just typical swear words but ones with creativity and plans to then give him his special dinner: Knuckle Sandwich!
Even Stanford, the normally calm and collected Pines, felt the urge to commit a dark ritual so that he could cast curses at him or shake him rather shockingly with his electric gloves!
Needless to say, when the Stans researched Dib and Gaz's father they were outright furious at the man. Seriously; what KIND of father only visits his children physically ONCE a year!?!? Or you know, use robots to project his ugly mug instead of physically himself being there when they are in trouble or have a birthday instead of physically himself being there since EVER!?
For all the faults the Stans' father Filbrick had at least he wasn't a neglectful snob who would send his OWN child to a mental asylum just over his interests!
Not to mention for some odd reason they couldn't find anything about Dib and Gaz's mother which sent some bad implications to the Elder Pines specially with Professor Membrane's track record by this far.
Oh sure, from what they read, that incident where he lost his arms to sharks had given a big wake up call to spend more time with his children, treat them better and be supportive which was even more evident from what they learned from interviewing the Membrane kids, but that doesn't mean they won't strangle that man when they see him!
"A 'Girls' Night'? Your scheme is making a gender switch version of the boys' night?" Gaz sarcastically commented.
"Sue me." The Pines girl blow a raspberry "Besides, knowing my own friends Grenda and Candy they are very loud and we can make them jealous by bringing more girls like Paz, Wen, you– "
"Stop the part about a 'me' part, because there is no 'me'." Gaz interrupted with a shake of her head.
"Aw come on, why Gazzy Girl?" she whined.
"First of all: Call me Gazzy Girl again and I will throttle you, Secondly: Me and 'Girls' 'Night' don't mix well, every time I spend time with other girl skoolmates I either get bored to death or resort to violence on a karen."
The girl Pines scoffed "Well, most of your skoolmates are poopheads frankly speaking, though I am inviting that girl Gretchen was it? As well."
The Membrane girl raised an eyebrow "And why specifically her? What's so special about her?"
"Well, as a fellow outcast she is least likely to be a mean girl and…" The PInes got closer and whispered in Purple girl's ear.
"Oh really?" Gaz's expression turned savagely hearing that tidbit of information.
Mabel with a barely contained giggled turned her head up "Really."
Later, near the night…
Yes, Mabel knew Gretchen had a crush on Dib. It wasn't even rocket science to figure that out, even Gaz herself was surprised she didn't notice that though that's likely because she just didn't care.
Due to Gaz being rather intimidating, she was sent to go get Pacifica while Mabel went to get Gretchen using her sociable charms to get her and lo behold being the natural social butterfly she was, she managed to get her.
Gretchen as she walked with Mabel rather nervously asked "I uh…never had a girls' night, what if I mess up?"
The Pines girl snorted "That's the whole thing about Girls' Night, sharing awkward secrets and having a laugh, besides…" She then grinned. "Dib is in the next room and we can talk about how to get him."
Gretchen blushed and immediately tried to deny that "Wha-wha-what gave you that impression?"
"Oh please, with how obvious you were I bet my pet pig that the whole Skool knows about your not-so subtle crush on the big headed boy."
As if the Devil himself just got summoned by speaking his name, Dib showed up denying the size of his head rather loudly "MY HEAD IS NOT- ! oh hello Gretchen."
"H-h-hi." Gretchen nervously greeted back and Dib seemed oblivious on why she was nervous though he titled his head.
"Put me down you purple troglodyte!" That was the sound of Pacifica as she protested while she kept hitting at the back of Gaz who wasn't phased at all carrying her on her shoulder. "I will have you sued to oblivion!" The Northwest hissed a threat which Gaz didn't care about and then put her down.
"Mabel? What's going on?" Pacifica demanded upon seeing.
"Good seeing you Paz! Now all that's left is calling my girls."
"For what?"
"Girls Night silly!" the Pines replied chippy.
"You sent this emo troll to kidnap me for a slumber party!?" the blonde girl was outraged at that.
Gaz frowned at being called an emo troll.
That's when Mabel looked confused "Wait what? Gaz forced you?"
"No I was willingly being carried by the freakishly strong goth shortstack," the blonde tartily and drily said with sarcasm dripping from each syllable while Dib rolled his eyes like he expected his sister to do something like that.
"Did you just call me short and fat, you spoiled blonde!?" Gaz hissed at the blonde who then in reaction reeled back akin to someone feeling threatened by a growling dog.
"And what on Earth are you even wearing??" Pacifica upon seeing Dib's choice of clothing asked.
"It's my paranormal investigation coat!" Dib rather indignant touched the right collar rather protectively.
"But… why?" The Northwest girl couldn't comprehend that.
"Why do you wear like a 40s era with your hair style?" The Membrane boy retorted back.
"Hey! At least my hair is not as tall as the Empire State!" she snapped back, pointed at him .
"Whatever" Dib remarked while the blonde Northwest pouted, he by this point realizing there is gonna be a Girls' Night simply shrugged to Mabel in response "Sure, no problem we simply would do our Guys' Night in another room while you girls do your own."
That caused Mabel to be surprised and glanced back at him considering other rooms beyond her and her twin's room are occupied or in case Ford's laboratory is banned from partying in "What other room?"
"Soos with Melody and the Vo- um their children in his granny's house."
Meanwhile the triplet aliens were soothing anarchy all around, fortunately not in their monstrous form but rather the way children are causing chaos.
The triplets were covered in children clothes to hide their extraterrestrial nature and two of them were currently playing on Soos's shoulders while the third was kept poking at Melody's right cheek.
The couple looked exhausted to the point they didn't even care that the children were poking fun at them.
"Help Us." Melody begged for help from granny on how to raise children once granny opened the door.
Melody and her husband wanted to have kids but after seeing how handful they are, maybe start a family a few years later.
"So we can simply play in Soos's room."
Gretchen whispered to herself over the fact that Dib is gonna be close "He's gonna be very close." making Gaz gagged.
Mabel tried to hide her uncertainty; she didn't expect the boys to be able to continue their Boys' Night at the same time as the Girls' Night; nevertheless, she improvised "Suuuure, knock yourself out!"
"Thanks." Dib smiled and then walked away to the outdoor of the Shack.
Gaz turned back to Mabel questioning "So what now?"
"Now? We have to also add a new member…" looked with a mischievous glint at the inside of the door where Wendy bored sat her face on the table with a hand
She could feel their gazes and so she looked back "Uh, why are you two looking at me like that?"
30 minutes later….
"What is your intention with my brother?" without even saying pleasantries she cut to the chase as she with everyone else circled in the slumber party in Dipper and Mabel's room in the Shack.
Wendy while drinking a Pitt Cola coughed on her drink at such an appropt line of questioning.
"Oooooooh!" Candy and Grenda oooh-ed at the same time while Gretchen flat footed with a face that screamed 'Oh Dookie' stammered.
"I uh- oh- uh d-don't hurt!" Gretchen shields her face in fear, fearing Gaz is gonna be one of those 'Very Protective' sibling types.
The Corduroy after a few coughs with a hand on her chest finally hoarse "Damn it gal, you don't do half-measures do you?"
The Membrane girl ignored Wendy and replied to Gretchen slightly annoyed "Oh relax Gretchen, who my brother's love life is his own, I'm already involved in his paranormal obsession I do NOT want to get involved in his sob opera as well."
Gretchen no longer shielding her face then nervously answered her question feeling everyone staring at her and fidgeting slightly"W-well you see, despite not understanding half of the things he says. I-like how confident he is and he never quits even when the odds are stacked against him. Is not just him being smart or… well, kind of a nerd. I find that really admirable." Becoming slightly more confident she explained further "I mean, he stands up for what you believe in, no matter how strange it seems to others.
There's something special about Dib. He's not afraid to fight battles, even when they seem impossible, don't give up, even when it feels like the whole world is against him. That takes guts. He reminds me that it's okay to be different and to stand out. To embrace who you are, quirks and all."
Everyone became silent staring at her; Candy and Grenda was currently gushing so did Mabel, Wendy smiled as that description reminds her a lot of Dipper; honesty if it weren't for the fact that Dipper was still 12 back then and 2.5 year age gap is glaring between a 15 and a 12 she would have considered him as boyfriend material he is ten times more of a man than most of her exes and Pacifica? She now felt self-conscious as that is exactly how she felt toward Dipper, he was the one who encouraged her to get out of her parents' shadow and showed her to stand up.
The goth Membrane was flatfooted, but she didn't wanted everyone to see that so she decided to try to be dismissive
"...That is some sappy level crap I ever heard." Gaz stated plainly causing Grenda and Candy to glare at her so did Wensy and Mabel "What? It is cheesy as heck."
Grenda growled "You're lucky my boyfriend is not here, he's a baron and I can ask him to blacklist anyone."
That made the Membrane girl scoff.
Pacifica meanwhile was still introspecting.
Meanwhile in the Boys' room; Zim was standing in front of a chalkboard, covered in scribbles and strange mathematical equations. Dib is sitting at a desk, looking skeptical while Dipper awkwardly stands off to the side.
The Alien Invader points dramatically at the chalkboard "BEHOLD! the incontrovertible proof of the stupidity of the human race!" starts writing furiously "As you can see, the formula for human intelligence is woefully inadequate, barely registering above the lowest forms of life on your pathetic planet!
Dib rolled eyes expecting Zim trying to prove humanity's stupidity using math "Here we go again with your crazy alien nonsense. None of that makes any sense! Where are you even getting these numbers and equations from?"
Zim turned to Dib, eyes narrowed "Silence, foolish human! The numbers do not lie!" he points back to the chalkboard "This equation clearly shows that the average human brain functions at a mere fraction of its potential, dooming your kind to a life of mindless servitude to your Irken overlords!"
Dipper raises hand tentatively trying to defuse the situation "Uh, I'm not sure I'm following this... How exactly does this prove that humans are stupid? It just looks like a bunch of random symbols and numbers to me."
The Irken whirls around to face the Pines Boy "You DARE question the superiority of Zim's mathematical prowess?!" He turned back to the chalkboard, muttering " These puny human minds could never comprehend the complexities of Irken science." While scribbling furiously.
The Membrane boy stands up, glaring at his mortal enemy done with his nonsense "That's it! I'm not listening to any more of this nonsense. Humans may not be perfect, but we're certainly not as dumb as you're making us out to be!"
Said mortal enemy waved a hand dismissively "Bah! Your pitiful protests only serve to prove my point. The sooner you accept your place as mindless drones, the easier your transition to Irken rule will be."
Dipper sighed, trying to intervene "Guys, maybe we could just... calm down and try to understand each other?"
That did not work and his plea was left unanswered as Zim and Dib continued to argue, ignoring Dipper's attempts at mediation while the Pines rubbed his nose.
The girls are now sitting around until Mabel comes back excitedly holding up a bottle of sparkly blue nail polish "Look everyone! This one is called "Galactic Glitter"! Perfect for our alien-themed nail party!"
Wendy applies a coat of neon green, she wasn't much for cosmetics but occasionally she did albeit rarely "Honestly, Mabel, if I can't have tentacles on my nails, it's not alien enough for me."
"I want mine to look like a supernova!" Grenda added in.
Candy dabbing pink polish on Grenda's nails liked her friend's idea "Ooh, I love that idea! Can you imagine? Supernova nails lighting up the galaxy!"
Pacifica rolled her eyes playfully and commented with faux haughtiness "As if the universe could handle my sparkles. They'd just explode!"
"Speaking of explosions, did anyone see that weird spaceship land behind the Shack the other day? What was that about?" Gretchen leaned over to grab a silver polish while saying that.
Probably just another one of Zim's 'superior' plans gone wrong." Wendy grinned and jested.
"Come on, Gazzy! Don't be a space troll! We need an extra pair of hands for the glitter!" Mabel turned back to Gaz with a bright smile.
The Membrane girl shook her negatively "I have no interest in painting nails. If I wanted to waste time, I'd boot up my game and obliterate something."
The Pines girl leaning in closer to her " But think of it this way! It could be a fun way to relax! Besides, I bet you could totally pull off a ferocious black with skull designs!"
The purple girl in response pushed her glasses of her Game Slayer up "I'd rather pull off a new high score."
"Come on! Don't you want to show everyone that you're as tough as you are cool?" The Northwest girl jeered, making the purple girl frown.
"Yeah! It's like leveling up in real life!" Candy nodded fervently.
"Nail art is like strategy! You just have to find the right approach!" Gretchen reasoned with her.
"And trust me, girls, Zim would hate those nails! It would totally throw him off his game!" Wendy told her.
Gaz contemplates and seeing that it's true that Zim is such a narcissist that he would take issue, she finally relents "Okay, okay, but only if you promise not to use any sparkles."
Mabel victoriously put a hand up "YES! No sparkles for Gaz! We'll go for something dark and cool!"
"Just like your soul!" The Corduroy girl teased.
" I heard that." Gaz deadpane stated.
"Okay, let's paint some power into those nails! Alright, who's ready to go on the ultimate nail adventure?" Mabel announced with a chuckle.
As they all giggle and chatter excitedly, Gaz reluctantly begins to join in, if only to prove she can outshine them all even with painted nails.
While the boys was watching one of the horrible movies Dipper watches with Wendy, Zim decides to get the other two to join his 'Invasion efforts,' promising them power and glory under Irken rule, definitely was not one desperate ditch attempt in getting out of his imprisonment or that he actually enjoys their company nah ah, he only goes with them in Boys' Night to show the superiority of Irken Species not because he actually enjoys playing Board Games with them or to distract himself from the horrible fossilized gorilla that is keep bossing him around.
The insectoid alien raised his arms theatrically "Behold, pitiful Earthlings! I, Zim of the Irken Empire, have come to offer you a choice!"
Dib rolled his eyes, he expected the alien to try another hairbrain scheme even during the slumber party "Oh great, just what we need. More of your crazy schemes."
Dipper half-interested, munching on popcorn "What are you offering this time? Free snacks?" recalling one time he tried to bribe the Pines with snacks, apparently Irken Snacks are famous for being delicious so much that literal wars were waged at that.
Zim smirked knowingly "No, Dib-Clone! Power! Recognition! Wealth beyond your wildest dreams if you join me in my glorious conquest of this pathetic planet!"
The Membrane boy sarcastically commented "Yeah, because nothing screams "recognition" like being a minion of an alien overlord."
The Pines raising an eyebrow, genuinely curious "But... what kind of power are we talking about?"
Zim leaning in closer, a bit too close for Dipper's comfort "Imagine it! You, Dipper, wield unimaginable energy capable of controlling the fate of humans with the knowledge of cosmos in the tip of your hands! And you, Dib, untold knowledge of the cosmos at your fingertips! No more mockery, no more jeers at your expense finally the human race acknowledging your brilliance! Together, we can bring the true order to Earth!"
The big headed boy crossed his arms, skeptical knowing that this was likely an attempt of trickery "Yeah, right. What's in it for you, Zim?"
The Invader grinning mischievously elaborated "The joy of conquest, of course! But more importantly, I would have two brilliant minds by my side. Think of the fame! The glory!" The Membrane was not impressed knowing it was a lie, the most important thing for him is pleasing his tallest not having two 'Inferior Beings' at his servitude.
Dipper looked thoughtful for a moment that made Dib worried that he might actually consider it "Wow, that's... kind of tempting. But you know what's tempting? Is to be proved that everything me and my family did are justified."
Zim gleaming evilly vocalized in triumphant "YES YES! EMBRACE IRKENDOM!"
"Which now does because the Irken Empire is a fascistic authoritarian hellhole!"
"YES!-- wait what!?"
Now it was Dipper's turn to smirk slyly "Now that I think about it, your plans always end in disaster."
Zim caught off guard, sputtering "B-but! I offered you— "
Dib interrupted with a cackle "And we realized you were just trying to trick us into helping you conquer Earth, but that means we're justified in stopping you again!"
Bug Guy waved his hands frantically "No, wait! I can make you powerful! You will be feared! Respected! You will—
The Pines boy grinning remarked "Feared, sure, by who? You can't even conquer a snack table without failing."
The Membrane boy now standing up conceded with Dipper "Exactly! Your "mission" is a joke, Zim! And we'll make sure you stay out of our way!
"Besides, even if you win. Then what?"
Zim raised an eyebrow in confusion "Zim does not understand?'
"Say you conquer Earth, will that bring happiness? You equalize your happiness with success, once you achieve it life will be pointless."
The Invader gaped as if the Pines just told him that the universe is made of cheese, before he could give an angry screeching reply, Dipper continued.
"Remember Bill, that chaos demon that terrorized my family and the town? For all his powers in the end he was a little man who was lashing out even when he nearly ended reality as we know it."
Zim defeated, crossing his arms with a huff "Your refusal only makes me more determined! Someday, I will succeed!"
Dipper laughed "Sure, we'll be waiting for your next epic fail!"
Dib noded "We'll be right here, ready for the next movie night."
The final scene of the movie ends as the human boys watched while Zim still grumbling about his failed attempt to deceive– ahem recruit them, definitely was not feeling his pride wounded that they rejected his offer or that he actually felt disheartened that they didn't took his offer no way Irkens don't feel squishy things for inferior life forms.
Dipper and Dib share a laugh, focused on the movie once more while Zim grumbled like a grumbling cat.
Mabel tries to get the girls to play party games like Truth or Dare or Spin the Bottle, but Gaz refuses to participate, much to Mabel's dismay.
Mabel's slumber party was in full swing. The girls were sprawled on blankets and cushions. Snacks are everywhere. Mabel stands up, clutching a bottle and beaming.
Mabel declared "Alright, ladies! Who's ready for some epic party games? First up: Truth or Dare!"
Grenda holds a hand up and then points at Pacifica "Ooh! I'm in! I dare Pacifica to eat a whole jar of pickles!"
Pacifica's face crinkled "No way! That's disgusting!"
Wendy laughed " I dare you to do a shot of pickle juice instead!"
"Yes!" Grenda cheered.
The Pines girl clapped excitedly "And then we can spin the bottle!" she held the bottle up as she continued "But first, we need Gaz to join in!"
The Membrane girl sitting in the corner, staring at a game console stated disspassionately "No thanks, Mabel. I'd rather fight a horde of rabid squirrels."
The Pines pouted " But Gazzy, it'll be fun! Come on, don't be a party pooper!"
Gretchen added in "Yeah, Gaz! We need your coolness to level up the fun!"
Gaz deadpan replied "My "coolness" is not a currency you can spend on your ridiculous games."
Mabel grinned mischievously "Oh come on! What are you afraid of? Are you worried about the boys in this game?"
The Northwest girl snickered "You know, Mabel does have some... experience with boyfriends…"
"Oh please, like a billion!" Mabel nodded eagerly.
"And the most freakiest of them that rivals Corduroy's epic failed romances."
"HEY!" Both the Pines and the Corduroy took offense to that.
The other girls cackled hoarsely at that.
Gaz rolls her eyes "Please. I'm way too intimidating for the boys."
The Pines scoffed playfully. "Intimidating? Pfft! Oh, please! The only thing intimidating about you is your ability to cheese off anyone in a 10-mile radius!"
"I take that as a compliment."
"Come on, Gaz! If you're so intimidating, why not show us your, like, seduction skills?"
The purple girl visibly uncomfortable showed her distaste expressively "What? No way! I'm not playing 'seductress' with you all!"
The Pines girl grinned devilishly "What's wrong? Afraid I might like it?" she teased.
"Oooh!" Grenda, Candy and Gretchen giggled.
"No! That's not it! You'd just be... I don't know... laughing or asserting dominance or something and making things REALLY not PG!" Gaz defensively snapped back.
The redhead girl chuckled, "Sounds like you don't have any experience either, Gaz."
"That's not the point! Ugh!" The Purple girl actually flustered to everyone's amusement. The normally stoic Membrane was embarrassed. Oh she would get them all over this.
"So, here's the deal! You gotta seduce me or we will continue talking with Gretchen about her crush on your bro about the juicy details in front of you!" Mabel said playfully as she bounced.
"You wouldn't." Gaz narrowed her eyes, she was not used to being the one being teased and she was not a fan of it while Gretchen panicked.
"Oh come on! Don't leave me hanging here! I'll rate your performance!" the sweater girl blinked to the Membrane's vexation.
"I feel like this will be the ultimate plot twist!" Paz giggled.
"If Gaz can't handle this, how will she handle, like, actual crushes?" Wen rolled with laughter.
"Ooooh, Gaz's first real seduction attempt!~" Grenda in a sing-song voice announced.
Gaz gritting her teeth seeing that she was surrounded and finally relented begrudgingly "Ugh, I can't believe I'm saying this… Fine! But ask me to do this again or tell anyone else and I will throttle you!"
"Yay! Take it away, Gaz!" Mabel cheerfully agreed
The purple Membrane stood up, arms crossed, deadpan "I can't believe I'm telling you to... " cleared her throat "'seduce' you." Her face visibility cringed as if she ate something foul.
"I'm ready!" The Pines girl's eyes sparkled which made the Membrane girl groan.
"Mabel, go ahead. Get lost in space!"
"What? Was that supposed to be sexy?" Mabel laughed
Gaz waved her hands with an expression of gagging "No! It was meant to be an escape plan! Ugh!"
All the girls burst into laughter, and the friendly banter continues as Mabel drags Gaz into the game, all while Gaz shook her head grumbling, though secretly there was a reluctant smirk from her that took herself by surprise.
'Am I…enjoying being humiliated!?' the purple girl internally was shocked. Oh Cloud Pigs, they are infecting her dark heart with friendship!
"So, who's next? Let's keep this party going!" The Pines asked.
"I'll pretend to be Mabel while she seduces Gaz!" Candy enthusiastically held a hand up.
"I seriously need a new game console…" Gaz grumbled with herself. Just what the heck she got involved herself into?!
"At least it wasn't less smooth than when Paz called Grunkle Ford hot." Mabel sniggered at that memory of Pacifica's first time seeing Ford and wondered out loud why Stan suddenly looked better before everyone found out that Stan and Ford are twins.
"NOW WAIT A MOMENT!- " Before Pacifica could finish her objection everyone snickered, leaving the blonde girl sputtering.
Dipper, Zim, and Dib are huddled in a dimly lit room, surrounded by snacks and scattered video games during their Boys' Night Slumber Party. The atmosphere is tense with a mix of lighthearted banter and underlying rivalry.
Dipper decided to ask Zim out of curiosity "So, Zim, I've been meaning to ask… why do you want to conquer Earth so badly? I mean, what's the big deal about this planet?"
Zim narrowed his eyes, suspicious of the Pines"Why do you care, human? It's none of your pathetic business! My plans for Earth are beyond your comprehension and in service of the Tallests!"
He shrugged and replied "I get that, but is it about your leaders? Or just… power? Like, what do you actually want from all of this?" that took the alien invader aback until he snarled with a glare.
"You think you're clever, don't you? Asking questions as if you're some sort of expert on alien affairs to exploit my weaknesses!
Dib, grinning, joined the conversation "This is actually pretty funny, Zim. Dipper's got you on the ropes!"
The insectoid alien snapped back, defensively "No! I'm not on the ropes! I— I just—" He paused, looking caught off guard. "It's… it's about proving my superiority! The Irken Empire must see me as a great Invader, not as a mere… lowly drone!"
But aren't you already more powerful than most? I mean, you've got technology we can only dream of. If you really wanted, you could just live peacefully, right?" The Pines boy asked while leaning in, genuinely curious
Zim defensively crossed his arms with a face that showed disgust at that notion "Peace is for the weak! I am destined for greatness!" He pauses, his voice softer "But… It's hard. It's hard to be seen as great when everything around you is just… disappointing."
The Membrane boy's eyes widened, mouth agape in shock "Wait, did Zim just… show vulnerability?"
The Pines nodded and slowly came near the alien, "I didn't mean to—"
The Irken snapped back to bravado "Enough of this frivolous chatter! You will never understand my struggles! You think this is easy? Just wait until I conquer the Earth!
"I mean, I wasn't trying to upset you. I just wanted to understand." he held up his hands in defense
The Invader gesture wildly "Understand? Ha! You, a puny human, understand ME? There's nothing to understand! I am Zim! Fear me!
"Sure, Zim. Fear is totally what we're feeling right now." Dib smirked.
huffed, a mix of indignation and hurt Zim declared "Just you wait! My time will come, and then you'll see who's truly superior!"
Dipper sighed, leaning back and assured him "Right, sure. But you know, it's okay to want more than just conquest. You don't have to live up to anyone else's expectations.
The line blinked rapidly, momentarily thrown off "Expectations? I… I am Zim! They are my Tallest! But… maybe…" his voice trailing off as if he just learned a new concept.
Dib whispers to Dipper "Did we just break Zim?"
Zim heard that snapped back to full confidence "NO! This isn't over! You'll all be crushed beneath my mighty boot, and then you'll regret this conversation!" he dramatically posed.
The Pines chuckled "Okay, okay, Zim. We'll be waiting!"
The night continues, a blend of humor, rivalry, and unexpected moments, with Zim occasionally slipping back into defensiveness, but the fleeting vulnerability lingering in the air. It was both surreal and oddly comforting for Dib.
'Wait a minute…am I pitying my mortal enemy!?' Dib thought in surprise.
The girls are gathered and surrounded by snacks, hair products, and an array of makeup. The atmosphere is cheerful, with laughter and chatter filling the air as they prepare to give each other makeovers. Gaz is sitting on the couch, arms crossed, watching them.
Mabel excitedly said, then told "Okay, ladies! Let's get this makeover party started! Who's first?"
Wendy holding up a few hair dye options informed "I'm thinking we should go for some punk-inspired looks! What about neon colors?"
"I don't know, Wendy. Pretty in pink has always been more my vibe." Pacifica said as she flipped her hair.
"But punk is sooo cool! Imagine all the edgy selfies!" Candy bouncing on a bed said.
"I'm down for whatever! Let's get wild!" Grenda opinionated with a rather enthusiastic tone.
The Pines girl predictably knew what she wanted "Ooh! I want glitter and stars! Can I do bright purple, too?"
Wendy starts styling Mabel's hair, adding in colorful streaks and a few sparkles. The other girls gather around, excited to see the transformation.
Gretchen switching between colors trying to see what to choose "I think we should try some spikes! How about that, Grenda?"
"Yes! Let's do it!" Grenda grinned.
As the chaos unfolds, the Membrane remains on the couch, observing quietly. The Pines girl notices her lack of participation.
She tilted her head and called the purple girl "Gazzy! Aren't you going to join us? We could do something super fun with your hair!"
"Thanks. I'm good with my usual style." Gaz shook her head as a no.
"Come on, Gaz! Just one little change. Life's about mixing things up sometimes!" Wendy raised an eyebrow.
The purple girl sighed and responded a bit defensive "I just don't want to. I like how I look.
"But we want to see how amazing you could be with a little flair!" Pacifica pouted playfully.
Gretchen noded "Yeah! Just a hint of punk! It could be fun!"
Gaz nearly snapped but then decided to neutral "I get that you all love experimenting, but I just… I feel comfortable with what I have."
The girls exchange glances, considering Gaz's perspective.
Wendy gave a gentle smirk and responded "That's totally fair, Gaz. But why not just let us try a little something? You can always wash it out!"
The Membrane girl hesitated, looking at all the excited faces "I don't know…"
"We promise it'll be fun! Just a temporary change, like a little adventure, but without traumatizing plot twists!" Mabel encouraged.
"I mean, you can always go back. No pressure." Pacifica shrugged with both shoulders.
Gaz considers for a moment, then rolls her eyes, realizing they're not going to let it go. "Fine. Just no frills, okay?"
Excited cheers erupt from the group as they rush over, ready to give Gaz a fun twist without losing her personal style.
"Yes! Let's get you something awesome but still… you!" The Pines girl conceded.
As they start to apply some subtle colors and edgy elements to Gaz's style, laughter fills the room, and Gaz feels a warmed sense of belonging as they all enjoy the moment together.
' The warmth…make it stoooop!' Gaz internally screamed as his dark heart was infected by the warmth.
Gir bursts into the Boys' room, carrying a plate of tacos and said chirpy "Master! I made tacos! Fresh from the kitchen!"
Zim eyed the tacos warily "Gir, what did you put in these...creations of yours?"
Gir giggles in response "Only the bestest ingredients! Taco seasoning, cheese, and some...other stuff!"
Dib narrowed his eyes in suspicion which was shared by Dipper considering it was Gir, sure Gir made delicious waffles but just learning that the deranged robot once cooked Dib's severed head in that time loop incident made him very hesitant.
"Other stuff"? Yeah, I'm not touching those. Knowing you and Zim, they're probably toxic or filled with alien parasites or something." Dib commented.
Dipper shifted uncomfortably and uttered, "I don't know, guys. They might not be that bad. Gir seems proud of them."
Zim scoffed at Dipper's sentiment "Nonsense! Gir's culinary skills are...questionable at best. There's no way those tacos are safe for an Irken elite such as myself to consume."
Gir bottom lip quivers looking at the verge of crying "But Master...I made them just for you!" The SIR unit holds the plate out pleadingly.
The three boys stare at the tacos, hesitating knowing when Gir cries he cries he cries EAR DEAFENING LOUD.
Dib sighed in resignation deciding to be the first, it wouldn't be the worst thing he ate anyway "Alright, fine. I'll try one, just to prove you two idiots wrong." he gingerly takes a taco and slowly he opens his mouth very hesitantly preparing for the worst thing he ever put in his mouth.
The Membrane boy takes a bite, the other two watching him intently as if they expect him to suddenly burst. Suddenly, his eyes go wide.
Dib finally said "...Whoa."
Zim disbelieving demanded for answers "What? What is it, Dib-thing?"
Dib looked at the taco in amazement "These are actually...really good."
Dipper eyebrows raised in surprise "Seriously? Let me try one." He took a taco and ate it "Huh, not bad at all!"
The Irken gaped at them in shock that not only they weren't vomiting their own organs out by now, but also finding it delicious "Impossible!" He snatches a taco and inspects it "These couldn't possibly be edible. Gir, what sorcery have you performed?!" He whirled back at his SIR unit and demanded his minion for answers.
Gir giggled happily "I just used my bestest cooking skills!" he shoved a taco into Zim's mouth to his startlement.
The invader chewed slowly, eyes widening in shock as the flavor hit him.
Zim swallowed, speechless for a moment. "...This is actually...quite delicious."
The insane robot squealed with joy, dancing around the room as the three boys stared at the surprisingly tasty tacos in disbelief. "It has beef bits in it!"
"YOU'RE LYING!" The alien invader shouted and accusingly pointed at him.
After the Boys, Gir came for the Girls as he made tacos for them as well until he left(In his dog costume of course).
Late at night, the girls gathered for spooky stories. Gaz actually got into this, telling a chilling tale that leaves the others shaken.
Gaz leaning forward, her voice low and intense "Alright, listen up. This is a tale about a shadow that lurks in the corners of our world, waiting for the right moment to strike…"
The others lean in closer, eyes wide with anticipation. Gaz weaves a chilling story about a mysterious figure that haunts the woods, stealing the souls of those who wander too far from the path. Her delivery is gripping, leaving the others visibly shaken.
Grenda whispered "That's so creepy, Gaz!"
Pacifica nodded in agreement , a bit unnerved. "Seriously, I'm never going camping again."
Wendy rolled her eyes.
Just as the tension reaches its peak, Mabel bursts into the room, her usual bright demeanor replaced by an unsettling grimness. The girls gasp, taken aback by the stark change in her appearance.
The Pines girl held a crumpled note, her voice shaky. "Trust me, that's nothing compared to what me and my brother's went through."
The purple Membrane raised an eyebrow, she never saw Mabel the normally bubbling girl like this ever before.
The room goes silent when the Fallers go quiet recognizing the note; Pacifica looked scared, Wendy had a grime visage that barely concealed her rage, Candy was holding Grenda for support and Grenda was visibly snarling in fury.
That only left Gretchen and Gaz who could tell whatever this was, this was serious.
As Mabel unfolds the note, revealing chaotic handwriting that looks like it was written by a deranged psychopath that sends a chill down everyone's spine.
Gaz's eyes widen in surprise as Mabel's expression darkens further. Gaz, the dark goth who faced the madness of alien invaders and whatever paranormal thingy that Dib got her involved in, was genuinely intimidated by this Bill though she didn't visibly show it.
As much as she gave Dib a hard-time, she rather not imagine her stupid and sometimes self-destructive brother getting possessed by a demented dream demon and that would after his done would suicide his body and damn his consciousness to drift as a bodiless spectre.
Mabel, her voice trembling, informed " It's from Bill Cipher. He wrote this while possessing Dipper before... He… he wanted to kill him and make it look like a suicide, leaving Dipper trapped in the Mindscape."
The girls exchange horrified glances, the weight of Mabel's words sinking in. Gretchen's skepticism begins to waver as she processes the implications.
"Wait, what? Who is this Bill?" Gretchen voiced shaking.
The Pines's gaze drops, her voice barely above a whisper as she mutters to herself, her self-deprecation cutting through the tension.
Mabel with a haunt only thought out loud f "All of this… just to impress a creep who loved puppets more than anyone else…"
Gretchen's heart races as she recalls the strange occurrences in town, the triangular symbols and objects that she saw during Summerween. She while not outright discount the possibility of paranormal was a cautiously skeptic yet that before she and other Skoolmates getting terrorized by a variety of monsters and she could tell that Mabel's hurt and haunted look seemed too genuine to be a fake. Her mind races with memories of the locals' stiff expressions when asked about them, their eyes darting away or giving dirty looks as if the topic was taboo.
With a quivering she asked "But… that triangle with the eye… I've seen it everywhere. People act weird when it comes up."
"I will tell you someday later." Wendy told her by leaning close to her ear and whispered seriously.
The boys were now in a prank war when the alien challenged his nemesis.
Zim was using alien tech and summoning Minimoose and Dib and Dipper countering with more grounded methods. This led to some hilarious hijinks while Gir is there giggling at the show readying for a playful showdown between Zim and Dib. Gir sits in the corner, bouncing with excitement.
Zim was holding up a small triangular device, a mischievous glint in his metallic eyes "Behold! My latest invention! With this, I shall summon Minimoose to wreak havoc!" which was basically a cannon that used Minimoose as cannonball. Which did not impress the human boys.
Dib rolled his eyes "You always say that, Zim. What's the catch?"
"No catch! Just pure Irken genius!" The Irken boasted.
As the Invader activates the device, the air buzzes with energy, and Minimoose bursts onto the scene with a loud "Nyah!" Gir's eyes light up with delight, bouncing up and down.
"Yay! Minimoose! I love moose!" The insane robot cheered, no longer having his dog hood head on his head.
The Pines, trying to stay grounded, quickly sets up his own prank—an elaborate series of obstacles that Minimoose will hilariously trip over. He was already good at making over-complicated schemes and Wendy and her gang taught him one and two about making pranks. "Alright, let's see how well you handle this!" The Pines boy jeered.
As Minimoose attempts to navigate Dipper's obstacles, the scene quickly descends into chaos. Dipper bursts into laughter at the sight of Minimoose tumbling and the ensuing mess. Gir joins in, cackling at the antics.
Just as Zim prepares for his counter-prank, the triangular device begins to hum ominously. Sensing trouble, the mood shifts making the alien frowned "Wait, no! This wasn't supposed to happen!"
Suddenly, the device glows brighter, and Dipper's gaze lands on its triangle shape. His laughter stopped and his heart raced. Memories of Bill Cipher flood back; Weirdmageddon, his cruel laughter, watching his own body possessed and violated wearing a grin cheek to cheek with yellow eyes with slit pupils, his friends turned into carpents showing painted faces of them screaming, him holding him and his sister while counting out rhymes on who he should kill his one eye glowing red and switching between Shooting Star and Pine Tree. A wave of anxiety crashing over him. He stumbles back, breathing heavily.
"No, no… not him…" The Pines's voice shook.
Gir tilted his head, watching Dipper's distress with wide eyes and then obliviously cheerfully asked "Why does Jamie look like a fish out of water?" he mistaken his name as he mistaken Dib's name.
Dipper's panic escalates, as he struggles to ground himself amidst the chaos. Just then, Dib bursts into the room, sensing something amiss.
The Membrane boy upon seeing that immediately dropped his smile and ran over "Dipper! Partner! What happened?"
The Pines tried to catch his breath, his hands shaking as he pointed at Zim's device.
The Pines' voice trembling replied "I… I saw the triangle and… it reminded me of Bill.
The Membrane's expression shifts from concern to understanding as he kneels beside his friend, placing a reassuring hand on Dipper's shoulder and saying firmly "It's okay, Dipper. Focus on me. Take deep breaths. It's just a prank."
Dipper nods, his breath hitching as he struggles to ground himself. The deranged SIR unit, still blissfully absorbed in the chaos, attempts to help by bouncing around and inadvertently knocking over obstacles in a fit of giggles and still oblivious as he sang "Fish out of water, fish out of water!"
Dib gently shakes Dipper's shoulder, urging him to re-center his thoughts.
"Look, it's just Zim being Zim. There's no danger here. Just us."
Dipper takes a deep breath, focusing on Dib's steady voice. The chaos around him fades slightly as he finds grounding in his friend's presence. Gradually, he calms down, where Gir's antics, once overwhelming, begin to look more like a silly spectacle.
Finally regaining his composure he thanked his friend "Thanks, Dib. I just… I didn't expect that."
As the tension eases, Zim huffs in frustration, his device emitting sparks before shutting down entirely and grumbling "It was supposed to be a perfect plan!"
Dib said to Zim " Maybe next time try something less triangular?"
The group return to their playful atmosphere, with Gir racing around, proclaiming himself the ultimate party moose.
Dipper shakes his head, managing a smile, thankful for friends who help steer him back to calm waters, even in the midst of chaos.
The girls were now a pillow fight using pillows to throw at each other or as melee and currently the tops were Mabel and Wendy, the only one not joining in was Gaz. She had already agreed to do a lot of girly things, she was not gonna join this absurdity.
The Pines girl was trying to bringing the Membrane in by pesting her "Come on Gazzy– '
"No."
"But–
"NO!"
"Pleeeease?"
"I'm not wasting feather for a stupid– " Before the purple gamer could finish a pillow hit her right on the face, that's when suddenly everyone stopped what they were doing as Gaz's expression remained blank until the pillow that hit her face dropped.
"It was her!" Both Pacifica and Gretchen said at the same time pointing each other in blame.
The goth Membrane inhaled deeply with a low threatening voice "So…you chose DEATH!"
That's when the pillow fight spiraled out of control when Gaz joined in. By the end only Gaz and Wendy remained both too stubborn to give in.
Mabel regretted her decision in involving Gaz way sooner than that point.
Boom!
splat
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!"
The sound of something exploding was heard and the cackling of a certain megalomaniacal Invader.
Pacifica spat a feather, tilted her head up as she was on the floor and asked "What was that!?"
"What did those idiots do now?" Gaz groaned expecting that to happen.
The girls rushed to the boys' room and what they found left them baffling, except for Gaz who was used to this by now.
It was as if a pie exploded with cake matter all over and covering Dipper and Dib while there was a certain skin-diseased green boy laughing maniacally in triumphant being the only one not covered in pie.
"BWAHAHAHA! ZIM HAS WON THE PRANK WAR!"
The obviously fake dog that everyone back in Skool thinks is Zim's little brother or cousin wearing a dog costume stopped licking its cake covered paws and looked at the girls.
"Helloooo!"
"Is that…a flying mini moose?" Of all things, Gretchen exclaimed about the flying moose.
"Nyah!" Minimoose confirmed that its name was Minimoose
"That's uhm an experimental drone! Don't mind that!" The Pines girl told her to not mind that with a lie which technically was not a lie since Minimoose was a drone just that she omitted the fact that it was an advanced drone made by an alien.
"Gaz!? you…are you wearing makeup and painted nails!?" Dib exclaimed in disbelief about the mere fact that her goth and dark
sister used makeup and cleaned his goggle to make sure he was seeing it right.
"GAZE UPON ZIM'S VICTORY! FOR I'M THE KING OF PRANK WARS!" the disguised alien with a hand up declared, making almost everyone roll their eyes.
"Talk about a prank going too far…" Wendy muttered, not knowing whether she should be impressed or exasperated seeing Zim predictably taking things overblown.
"Hi- hi." Gretchen upon seeing Dib nervous greeted Dib with a stutter and slightly blushed while Dib was none the wiser.
Wendy rolled his eyes, if she thought Dipper was dense in not finding out that she heard him very clearly when he kept whispering love declarations on her then Dib was taking the cake ironically enough considering the situation and since it's been like 2 years and he hasn't found out by now.
Suddenly, from the pile of pie remains came another boy who came out "Hi!" a certain redhead boy came out of the pie goo who has the bad habit of stalking Zim which in typical Zim fashion found it flattering until finding it creepy rather cheerfully greeted.
"Who's he?" Pacifca gestured at the redhead boy in puzzlement.
" Keef? What's he doing here?" The Purple haired girl was also confused with a tilted head.
"Believe us, we tried to get rid of him." Dib grumbled with a soured face.
"And someone was squeaky about my method of getting rid of him." Zim locked his arms as he grumbled.
"For the last time, no organ harvesting!" Dipper snapped at the huffed Zim with crossed arms.
"I'm Zim's best friend!" Keef proudly announced, no one know how they should react to that with the Membrane girl wondering if this boy is brain-dead to consider Zim as his best friend but again she seen Dib and Zim bicker like an old married couple and there was this odd…well she wouldn't call friendship but rather a sort of strange commodity between Dib, Dipper and Zim.
The Pines girl sighed and turned to her brother "Welp, guess my plan to make you jealous is now off the hook with my Girls' Night."
"Wait…you were jealous? And afraid that I replaced you?" Dipper was surprised.
Mabel shook her head and admitted "I know, I know. It was stupid! I'm a dumb dumb!"
"What gives it away? The Wolfman fantasy novel?" Gaz sarcastically sneered recalling when Mabel read that novel in the slumber party while Wendy cringed remembering that as well, both Gaz and Wendy cringed so hard at the very problematic romance novel with a side of stupidity that their face threaten to developed wrinkles with Gaz feeling her IQ was dropping by just hearing that trash.
'Why that novel oddly sounded like the story of my love life…?' The Corduroy thought bitterly.
The Pines girl briefly gave a dirty look to the Purple Girl before glancing back and elaborated. "I was afraid that you were replacing me and yes I know it was stupid but…you spent a lot of time with Dib and Zim and I felt kinda left out."
"You're right, that's stupid." Dipper's sudden remark took her and everyone by surprise and then Dipper smirked slyly "Zim is even more annoying than you and too easy to tease."
"HEY! THE MIGHTY ZIM IS NOT TEASABLE" Zim insulted and exclaimed in indignation which made Dib and Gaz snort making him even more annoyed while Gir giggled.
"Oh you!" Mabel laughed and playfully punched Dipper on his shoulder.
Later…
And Slumber Party continued this time with Boys and Girls and what a night it was.
Gir chewed on Pacifica's hair to her shrieking objection, everyone went on a betting pool when Gaz and Wendy were test each other's strength by fist to fist strenght measurement contest on who was the strongest whixh after 30 minutes ended in a tie, Zim and Dib bickered a lot, Candy and Grenda finding Gir cute were caressing him like a pet to his enjoyment, Gaz nearly went physical when Pacifica made comments about her being fat which she immediately apologized rather hastily partly genuine and partly because she rather not have someone who matches a Corduroy in strenght angered, Gretchen made many failed attempts that Dib was oblivious to which made Wendy pat Gretchen on her back as she looked down while Pacifica tried to make advancements to Dipper too was oblivious making her eyes twitch in frustration and bend a spoon she held by her hand when she was eating yogurt and Gaz was there smirking in amusment at how oblivious the two nerd boys were, Minimoose just floating around giving its signature phrase, Zim tried to get rid of Keef by unethical means which was immediately stopped to his frustration, Keef and Mabel were talking like two sugar rushed kids about random stuffs that freaked out the non-Fallers a bit, Grenda was warned by everyone familiar with Gir to NOT bring her pet lizard near him making Gretchen wonder what that was about, Mabel showed her pet pig one of the very few things that Gaz considers as precious, Candy tried to flirt with Zim only for Zim to outright gage and remind her that he is by Earth Calender older than any living human on Earth disencouraging her and also Zim laughed like a mustach twitching villain like always over inane stuff that made everyone roll their eyes until he uintentionally slipped that he secretly spied on the Pines family and their allies before his confrontation including Wendy in her own room causing Wendy to go after him with an ax while Zim screeched in fear and tried to use Dib as a human shield.
Overall, it was quite an eventful and memorable slumber party that miraculously didn't end in anyone losing an organ.
As of currently, at 3:02 AM, there was now a dance party music, with Mabel and Grenda showing off their best dance moves.
Gaz just sat in the corner and very reluctantly joined in, instead of singing like others was playing guitar with her fingers furiously in Rock style.
Gir was drumming on drums.
Others were singing: Candy and Grenda because why not, Mabel obviously, Dipper considering his liking for disco girl, Wendy was high on spirit, Pacifica only because Dipper was in it, Gretchen was very nervous to sing until she got the courage when Dib joined in, Minimoose for reasons, Dib because Dipper was in it and surprisingly Zim when he was goaded into showing that his singing is superior.
" -We knocked on Evil Triangle's door!"
"We fell in the Cackling Florpuse."
"But we're still alive!"
"'Cause in Gravity Falls, summers come and go!
"We've seen better times!"
"But at least we're still alive!"
"We hit rock bottom!"
"We knocked on Evil Triangle's door!"
"We fell in the Cackling Florpus!"
"Nyah nyah nyah!"
CLEAK!
The door suddenly opened and hit Minimoose stopping everyone dead on track and glanced back but from the very tired, frustrated and red sleepless eyes of Stan, if he knew he hit Minimoose he didn't care not much.
"Um, is it just me or does the old man look even worse?" Pacifca wrinkled in disgust.
"IT'S 3 GODDAMN MOOOOORNIIIIIING! " He roared, finally losing patience for the constant loud night activities so he roared loud that the group flinched back except the ever oblivious Gir.
—-
Outside of the shack from a mile away, was a shadowy figure sat on the branches of a tree with devices near her, her dark baleful purple eyes illuminated in the darkness of the shadow and night gazing hatefully toward the Shack and there was a demonic cat with red eyes hissing and it shifted and slithered around her like a shadow only to then stop near its master with his form dissipated revealing a small humanoid figure with red eyes devoid of emotion glowing in the dark and was then pat once and twice by its master on its head.
"Patience."
The master of the smaller humanoid leaned forward, her face revealed by the moonlight shining showing that of an alien insectoid with a small visible implant on her head and square-curled antenna snarling with inhuman teeths.
"For soon, Zim and his human allies will pay."
It was none other than Tak and her robot minion Mimi, plotting their revenge.
Note:
Phew, that was the longest chapter I wrote for this fic! But I felt like it would've been incomplete if I did it shorter.
I got a brief song inspired by this.
