Just some more information about my Space Husbands AU!
They travel all over the universe just doing general dumb shit. They go to many planets but they have places they return to fairly regularly as they either have good food, materials or good job listings.
In the early days they would make their way back to earth once or twice a year. Dib made sure to always bring the weirdest “gifts” he could find. Gaz was never happy when he brought back live things.
Zim and Dib live together on a repurposed ship they bought years back. It’s a bit bulky and it’s sometimes called “The Junker”, it’s called this because Dib likes to collect a lot of junk. Locals in places they visit often tend to poke fun at it.
Dib refers to Zim most of the time just as his partner. Zim really likes calling Dib “Dib-Husband” “Human-Husband” and any other husband variant he can come up with in the moment.
They never had a full blown earth wedding (neither are interested) but they are married. They did however still exchange rings. Each went out of their way to make a ring for the other. Dib had searched for months for the perfect material for Zim’s. In the end he chose a rose gold colour. While Zim actually went to an earth-like planet to find a black obsidian type material. He spent a while hauled up in his lab making the ring as perfect for “his Dib” as he could.
Dib was fitted with a mini Pak when he turned 40. Zim insisted he could have done it years earlier but Dib didnt mind going a little gray. The Pak is attached to his heart so it pumps Irken tech literally through his veins. His life is greatly lengthened as well as his stamina and strength have increased. The Pak has zero connection to Dib’s brain, so this means no legs or weapons. Dib did find out about the auto danger sensing shield when he was being chased by a group of bandit aliens and they fired at him with their weapons. Dib also only found out that Pak contained all his information like a dog tag when he got arrested (first of many times) on a planet . Zim didn’t find out about the arrest for a while as Dib, of course, ran off on his own. This was also why Zim had installed a tracker as he knew this would happen eventually.
Dib is banned from at least 3 planets now. Zim’s planet ban is at 8.
Hope you all had a great week! Today will be the last zadrday I post consecutively :) It’s been a lot of fun! Thanks for putting up with me every saturday!
