I finally found time to get back on here. So major life update for me and why I been silent for a bit again. So I mentioned before how I lost my job awhile back. Well I'm still jobless at the moment and I recently had to move away from my house with my roommate and moved in with my family again cause I couldn't afford living at my old house anymore. Everything is still packed away including my computer so I haven't been able to do much of anything online recently and maybe for a few more weeks. That's all. Just felt like I owed some people an explanation.
Just posting a quick update about my fanfic, Invader Falls. I finally updated the next chapter and you can read it right [here!]
For those who like my fanfic, I hope you enjoy the next chapter and look forward to even more. I’m hoping to update it again soon. That is all for now! See ya!
I wanted to draw a teaser for my fanfic Invader Falls. I hope you all enjoy it. Things are starting to get better for my personal life so I should be finalizing the new chapters soon and uploading them.Â
Please check out Invader Falls if you haven’t right [Here]
I want to apologize for not being as active as I originally promised. With covid hitting me, losing my job and general extreme stress I just haven't had the motivation to do much with Tumblr at the moment. But I am slowly working on my fanfictions (and yes I mean more than one) and some drawings I want to post here still. I'll be more active soon. Just need some time to clear things up in my life
Hello, I hate to be this person, but I recently lost my job and I was hoping to promote my small business. I am NOT begging for money so please do not buy anything from the small shop if you do not want to, but if anyone wants any cute five nights at freddy’s stickers or maybe a shirt or whatever else, please check out my redbubble. I still don’t have a lot on redbubble, but I am always adding to it.Â
My roommate and I also have an etsy page where we sell custom made shirts and a few other things. We are also still adding to it as well so please check out the Etsy page too.Â
Just doing a small personal rant about covid. You can ignore if you want. But anyways, after trying so hard to avoid getting it by doing everything I was supposed to, I still ended up getting covid. Im thankfully doing okay but man does this suck. Please every still stay safe out there guys. The world is going crazy right now, but dont forget covid is still a thing.
Please get vaccinated or your booster if you still haven't. I'm thankfully one of the lucky ones with covid and just have mild symptoms (though even the mild symptoms suck so bad), but others may unfortunately not be. So keep them safe. Wear a mask, avoid large gatherings as best as possible. Just stay safe out there please.
(Also if I hear one anti-vaccine thing or anything downplaying covid at all I'm not one to tolerate that. I'm done with drama on my page so instant block if I hear one thing I swear. Not even going to give any comment like that the time of day)
I wanted to draw Zim, but I accidentally made a new irkensona again. I shall name him Pettori. I literally just made that up on the spot XD I don’t know. Name may change. I also decided to give him his own custom made SIR unit. I don’t know much about this random oc, but I love him now.Â
So I’ve been hyperfocusing on my mini business, so I set up a red bubble shop. It literally only has a few things up so far, but I promise to add more in the future. I tried adding my pokemon images, but red bubble took them down. But I may try again in the future. So basically all I have so far is cute little images I drew for fun that I’m selling as stickers.Â
I’m also working on making an etsy if people prefer buying from there, but that’s not set up yet.Â
But please check below to my redbubble shop if you want a variety of things, from stickers, shirts, and more. (and I once again promise more will be added then what I have currently)
(ALSO! I’m suuuuuuuper new to red bubble, so my page is probably a bit clunky at the moment, so sorry if it’s not the best looking shop yet compared to others)
I wanted to post an example of some of the things I'd sell if Im lucky enough to make my own business. I just made a mug with my last image. Its heat changing so the image shows up when hot liquids are inside. But yeah I try to make a little bit of everything, from shirts, mugs (obviously), I also have earrings and more. If people are interested let me know and I may make an etsy to sell them.
I love pokemon and wanted to show off a cute little picture I drew.Â
Also this is random, but I’m slowly starting my own business. Right now I’m only building up merch so I’m not ready to sell yet, but if I were to make shirts like this and other shirts for other fandoms, would anyone be interested in buying?
This is mainly for the fans of my fanfic Invader Falls. With work, and overall house chores, and other work I need to take care of, it’s taking me a bit of time to finish the next chapter for Invader Falls, so it’ll take me some time to fully return to the chapter.Â
But fear not! Because I wanted to prove I am indeed working on the fanfic again and also just show an apology for being gone for so long, so for everyone who likes my story I’m posting a sneak peek below of the first four pages for chapter 13. Please enjoy. And for those who are interested in the fanfic and haven’t read it yet before the sneak peek is a link to the fanfic.
Continue below for the sneak peek, and I’ll continue to keep you all updated on when the next chapter is complete.
“Zim keeps telling you that he is fine!” the alien complained when Mabel stuck another bandage on his face. He was now coated in cutesy themed Band-Aids, a majority of them being useless. He glared at one that had a lot of small pink hearts and pealed it off, the sticky side getting stuck on his finger, and he pathetically waved it around in an attempt to get it off for good.
“One can never have too many band-aids. They’re like stickers but they heal!”
Dib shook his head in amusement at Mabel’s antics before walking up to sit next to the two. “As much as I hate to say it, I think Zim is right for once. He should be fine now, right Space Boy?”
“Of course!” The alien stuck his tongue out at his enemy. “If it wasn’t obvious.”
In truth, Zim did feel fine. The troll definitely gave him some damage, bruises covered his skin in odd off-colored patches, and when he moved his left arm and both legs, they stung a bit. However, after his irken body took the time to heal since arriving back at the Mystery Shack, all his injuries were just minor. Just then a small jolt shot out from the back of Zim’s PAK. Okay…maybe not everything was minor injuries.
Zim’s PAK was still cracked and without the proper tools to investigate it, Zim wouldn’t know what will come of this. Hiding his worry as best as he was able to, he glanced behind him trying to sneak a peek at his PAK but failed. Not wanting to draw more attention to himself, he looked away, though he didn’t notice Dib already took note of his gesture.
Dib too, worriedly tried to take a glance at the PAK, and from his perspective it was much easier. The crack wasn’t too large. Though any form of damage could be concerning to such an important device. Dib was no stranger to how important that PAK was for the irken. If anything were to happen to it, then Zim…
Realization took over and Dib shook his head, taken aback by his thoughts. Wait, why should I worry. I don’t care if something happens to Zim. In fact this whole mess would be ten times easier if he’d…if he’d…The way his new thoughts were going didn’t sit well with the human either.
Aaah! This is so frustrating! Dib ran his hands through his hair. None of his thoughts were coming to him easily anymore. Ever since he came to Gravity Falls…no, ever since Zim started acting…not Zim, Dib didn’t know what to think towards the irken. Coming to Gravity Falls just made his complicated emotions towards the irken more obvious.
“Why are you staring at Zim this time, Dib-stink?”
Dib blinked, not realizing he was staring and looked away, unknown to him he had a small blush over his face. “Nothing, you annoying space bug.”
Zim didn’t look as if he liked the answer, but he was still so exhausted after his run in with the troll and everything else that he just let it go for now. He leaned back a bit and sighed. “Zim never wants to see any more spookies again.”
Ford seemed to chuckle at that. “Well, I suppose that gives you more incentive to not leave the shack, huh Zim?”
“Hmph! Zim will still escape! He was so close today. Oh, so close.”
“Speaking of…” Ford gave a firm look to his niece who instantly felt the stare and shrank down. “Mabel…”
“Oh jeez, would you look at the time!” Mabel stood up and started to walk away only for Ford to stop her.
“Hold it young lady.” He turned her back around, kneeling so he was closer to eye level with her. “Now I’m not angry, but I need to know why you purposely let Zim loose, even after we warned you about this in the first place.”
Mabel lowered her head. “I just…” she hesitated, sharing a look with Dipper who nodded at her to go on. “I just wanted to try something big, you see, to get Dib and Zim to stop fighting as much as they do.”
“And letting Zim loose was that thing?” Dib asked her. “No offense, kid, but that seems a little counter intuitive.”
“Look, I knew it was a risk, but I figured if we could get you both out of the Mystery Shack then maybe it would lead to this grand adventure where you two see you’re not so different after all and learn to live with each other, differences and all!” She smiled wide at her proclamation before deciding to shrug. “It happens all the time in movies.”
Dib sighed but couldn’t hold back his smile to the young teen. “Okay, I see where you’re coming from, Mabel, but a wacky adventure isn’t going to just pop up with Zim stepping outside. And it’s certainly not going to have us get along like some weird buddy comedy.”
“I’ll say…” Zim agreed, looking offended at the very idea of being friends with Dib.
“Well, I am sorry about releasing Zim,” Mabel admitted. She crossed her arms stubbornly next. “But I am not sorry about trying to get you two to get along. Come on, you two must see it! You’re both have a connection that started way back in your childhood! And you haven’t killed each other since then! There must be something that is keeping you two from mauling each other, and I like to believe it is a deep seeded roman-FRIENDSHIP!” Realizing what she almost finished saying, Mabel was quick to correct herself, though it was enough for Dib to hear it and a blush form in embarrassment. “Friendship, I meant friendship. Haha!”
The blush didn’t leave Dib’s face. “Yeah that’ll still be a no to both of those options…” he decided to say, but seeing the red on his face just made Mabel giggle in small glee.
Zim, who also heard the start of the word didn’t quite catch on to what Mabel almost said as quickly. He put a finger to his mouth in thought, curious as to why the word caused the odd red hue to form on his enemy’s face. Finally, it hit him and he snapped his fingers. “Romance! That’s what you were about to say!” he said in a really loud voice.
Dib sputtered before glaring at the alien with a deeper blush. “Yes Zim. Thank you for clarifying…” he hissed.
“No need to be so touchy Dib-filth. As I’m sure you agree, there is no chance of anything, ew, romantic, between the two of us.” Zim shuddered at the mere thought. “Disgusting.”
“Yep, no argument there! We can stop talking about that now, please!” Dib stood up and walked away. “Man this day is insane…” he muttered to himself, uncaring of the alien that stared after him.
Zim’s expression was unreadable as he watched Dib walk away, but soon he just shrugged, scoffing as he did. Only Mabel took notice of the very, very faint pink hue that took over the irken’s face and she had to hide back her squeal. It’s starting!!! She thought excitedly, happy with her little accident now. It seemed like it was the perfect way to plant the seeds in their minds. Now all Mabel had to do was water it so that love could bloom. Easy…right?
Dipper noticed his sister’s reactions and rolled his eyes. “This is going to be a long next few day…” He rubbed at his eyes, before a thought crossed his mind. He decided to grant Dib his request and looked to Zim to change the subject. “By the way, Zim, there has been something that has been bugging me since we got back home.”
“And what is that, tiny human.”
“Ouch, come on man, I’m not that short.” Dib stood up, trying to make himself look taller. “See, I’m like…”
“The tiniest guy here!” Mabel teased her brother, her and Stan joining together to laugh at him.
Dipper frowned deeply, stomping his foot to the ground. “Hey, this is not what I wanted to talk about. Besides, I am not the tiniest. I’m taller than Mabel now, right!?”
“Sorry bro-bro. I’m still like thiiiis much taller,” his sister said with a triumphant smile.
“Ooookay, well I’m taller than…” in the corner the smaller little android caught his attention and he grinned. “GIR!”
“Hmm!?” GIR hummed at the sound of his name. Mabel and Stan just laughed more that he was forced to compare himself to a robot. GIR, who has not been paying attention decided to join in on the laughter because it seemed fun to him.
“Ha! It’s funny cause it’s mean!” Stan ended up shouted.
Dipper grumbled to himself before moving on. “Anyway! Zim, I have a question for you!” he shouted to get to his original point.
“And that would beeeeee?” Zim didn’t look like he cared anymore and leaned back. Hissing when he put a little too much pressure on his still slightly sore arm. He then focused all his left-over attention to the young teen, ready to answer anything that came his way. He really didn’t care. This boy may have been annoying like the Dib but he didn’t seem capable of asking any complicated questions.
Dipper hesitated before asking, “Why did you save us?”
Zim was wrong.
“What?”
“Why did you save us? We were a good distance from you when that giant troll was about to hurt us. You didn’t have to look for us, let alone stop the troll. Yet you did, so why?”
From his new spot next to Ford, Dib raised a brow, now also curious what the alien’s answer was going to be.
“Wh-what do you mean. Zim already let you know. If anyone is going to destroy you feeble humans, it is going to be me, Zim! Mighty irken invader! Not some pathetic troll-thing.”
“Yeah, I know you said that, but, I don’t know, it just seems a little silly.” He noticed Zim’s confused expression and continued. “I mean, you had enough strength to find us, surely you had enough strength to get to your ship instead and take off.”
“I-! Well-!” Zim was practically growling in anger now before he remembered something. “I was unaware of my ships locations, do you recall!? I just happened to come across you pathetic little worm babies, that is all. Zim did it because he could, not because he wanted to save you humans. So there!”
Dipper smirked. “I don’t know, you seemed like you made that up on the spot to me.”
“You’re lying!”
“Haha, I think you’re the liar here, buddy.”
“Zim is not your friend!”
Dipper laughed again, and the rest of the Pines’ family joined in as well.
“Admit it, Zim,” Mabel joined in. “You love us!”
“Ew no!”
“Zim’s just a big softy when it comes to us! I knew it!” Mabel announced. She ran to the angered Zim and hugged him tightly. “We love you too, Zim.”
“Get off me!”
“I think he secretly likes it,” Stan commented. “Mabel, hug him tighter!”
“NOOOOOO!”
Dipper shook his head at the antic before calming down his laughter a bit. “Anyway, Zim…”
Zim glared at him from his position on the floor. “What now!?”
“Thanks, for saving us. Even if you didn’t do it out of kindness like you claim.”
Just like that, the anger melted away and a different emotion took over. One Zim could not place. It was different. It felt warm…and gooey. Zim hated it! He scrunched up his face and turned his non-existent nose up. “Hmph, whatever.”
I amuse myself. Haha. Just wanted to post a silly little thing to prove I’m serious about being back. I’ll post better pictures in the future then this one. I drew this in like 5 minutes.
Hey! So after a long, long debate I decided to come back to my tumblr after being away for a long...loooooooong time. I never explained why I left and I doubt many people even remember me, but I don’t mind.Â
To put it plainly I left for my own personal mental health. At the time I was getting a lot of hate for being a zadr shipper and I couldn’t handle it, but I missed posting online so I decided to return to tumblr. I am still going to post invader zim content, but also going to expand into more fandoms.Â
So if any of my old followers are still around, hello again and to any new future followers, hello it’s nice to meet you!Â
(Also as a side note, I don’t know if anyone who still follows me and remembers my fanfic Invader Falls, I am also going to return to that as well. For those who don’t know, please check out that fanfic on Ao3.)
Will you continue the rewritten version of Facing the Past? Being a fan of the original, I read the updated version and really enjoy it! No pressure though!
Im sorry for possibly taking a long time to answer this. I had to take a loooooong break from Tumblr and haven't had time to look at my account.
And to answer your question that I hope you see, is yes. Someday soon. I'm focused on my invader zim/gravity falls fanfic currently (which I will update hopefully soon for those who like that and may be reading this btw) but I've actually been wanting to return to my fnaf fanfic as well. Maybe I'll update it around the same time I can get around to updating my other story. I can't give a specific time but I may shoot for the middle of next month.
Maaaaaybe sooner if I can really get in a writing mood again.
