What 😂😂😂 is supposed to mean: Hahaha,that was so funny.

What 😂😂😂 actually means: Hey, I know I just shared something super personal about me that might even disturb you due to the dark turn this conversation has taken, and before you wonder if I have some sort of problem or anything's wrong, which probably is, I present to you this emoji as a peace offering hoping it'll alleviate the tension if you think this was a joke or nothing serious at all.

YOOO……that recent comic…was so heartfelt! 🥺

(about this comic)

Thank you!! Glad it had the desired effect shdjfsd

And now that’s been like a day and ppl had a chance to scour for details on it, here are some extra notes I kept from adding on the tags:

-Zim was talking to an image of younger Dib, but his words were actually aimed at Adult Dib (as seen in his responses at the end about the wold making a mockery out of him)

-Zim has nicer feelings attached to the visage of younger Dib, thus why he prefers to use him for his simulations (plus young Dib is the right size for him to hug, and he laments that he never got to actually hug Dib when he was that size)

-The hologram isn’t really solid at all, so when Zim goes to hug him he’s actually just literally making a gesture of hugging thin air. That also applies to the antennae wrapping Dib’s air.

-Also bonus, I had this song on repeat while drawing this comic:
