Invader Zim is back, cringe culture is dead!!!!!!
So hey here’s my Irkensonaaaa! Skyler isn’t an Invader, not even any form of soldier, and is in charge of a just-as-important (but not appreciated at all) role: resource management for the entire Armada. They’re not the only one but with the empire’s constant expansion they’re often alone on solo jobs, struggling to keep up with weapon shipments, tech upgrade requests, and occasionally making sure the Tallests’ next shipment of snacks reaches them before their last one runs out.
Unhappy with the constant never-ending stress and isolation, they constantly waited for any opportunity they could find to escape the empire (though not to defect, of course; that would only lead to shame and deactivation). Once Zim makes it to Earth half a year after the Great Assigning word of him spreads quickly, and when Skyler overhears some Tallers mention that the Tallest won’t ever go anywhere near Zim’s station, they snag some not-yet-shipped-out invader disguise tech and sneak away from their post to find Earth.
Needless to say, Earth is confusing and scary but there’s so many people Skyler immediately feels right at home. Never alone again.
