”Lady Prisma? I need to ask you a question, and you were the only one I could think of asking.”
“What was it like to fly?”
(Context if you need it: Eri’s wings are WAY too small for him to be able to fly, they are fully grown, and he lost the ability to inhale and float like Kirby once he got his wings. So he’s never actually flown before. He’s self-conscious about them and he feels the only person that might not make fun of him for this question is Prisma.)
"Don't feel ashamed of not being able to fly, I've found that a life on the ground is just as fulfilling as a life in the sky, if not moreso."

zim outliving dib but keeping an ai download of his personality around in the same manner as tak's ship... hmm
AI!Dib being at best apathetic to its own existence and at worst resentful of Zim for making it into an unwilling crutch for his grief. Zim eternally unsatisfied by this stripped down version of Dib that isn't quite a person and can't touch him or hurt him or chase him. Zim putting the thing in charge of almost all his tech as compensation, just to keep life interesting, just to have something they can fight over.

ive mentioned that i like when ppl think Al is real because it lets me know that im depicting this stuff realistically despite having no very little experience on the matter but it's also relieving in a way thats like. Idk!
I've always felt like the doodles i make of cow al and smunker are too gratuitously...positive? And that's how you could tell they Weren't Real/Realistic... Like Al is very much a caricature of positivity, right? Doodles are usually about him being nice and sweet to skunker...so its obviously self insert vent stuff... There's no way its not obvious he's not real, because partners aren't this exaggeratedly gushy and sweet and affectionate, right? Lol? Oh.
⬆️ So it is relieving that ppl think he's real/im just cataloging our Real Life relationship because it means this kind of thing Can exist...ykwim... Do u understand me...

paradox rambling. ok so like . when coin got murdered cube kind of fucking Gave Up. this isn't something she showed or maybe even realized she did immediately, but she did. like obviously both she and combo wanted some kind of closure, maybe even justice, but cube was already teetering on the dangerous line of nihilism and so what galvanizes combo to try to fucking DO SOMETHING (even if he isn't sure WHAT) just kind of causes cube to internally shut down.
and combo suggests they go to japan to follow the last lead coin left them, and cube feels almost nothing. this will fail, but they're doomed anyway, so might as well, right? and they go, and they're lost, and they're clueless, because what the hell DO you do when you're just two displaced small-time street vandals up against a bloody global corporate conspiracy?
and they split up to cover more ground and cube has just given up COMPLETELY, she feels fully validated in her defeatism. and from there she joins (and becomes leader of) poison jam, because nothing matters anyway, yeah? might as well just fuck around (...she does end up making the gang's entire mental health tank badly btw. probably part of the reason garam decides to leave the sewer to join the ggs - he wasnt a proper member of poison jam but REGARDLESS hanging around their steadily worsening vibes was getting STRESSFUL.)
and basically she ditches combo. dude's left wandering around an unfamiliar city alone. and yeah, he's pissed and hurt, but he's also concerned. he's rather good at recognizing the feelings of others and he gets that cube is in a totally fucked headspace. unfortunately the ability to sympathize doesn't do HIM much good, especially given any attempts he had to talk to cube about it at the time only end in him running out of optimism and patience. by the time yoyo talks him into joining the ggs he's pretty much out of options and is on the verge of himself giving up, and he's well-aware that if he continues as he is without any kind of safety net he's likely fucking doomed.
but joining the ggs turns out to actually be surprisingly good for him - cube's just kind of chosen to surround herself with desperate yes-men who will nod along to her nihilism like it's sage wisdom, but the ggs are a much more complicated and vocal mix of worldviews and it helps keep combo from reaching that drain he was circling and he's finally able to confront cube in a way that pulls her away from her inferiority complex-power trip-downward spiral.
and so she joins the ggs, and then gouji is brought down and all that. and yeah cube is still fucked in the head, and her friendship with combo is still in shards that will be difficult (but hopefully possible) to put back together, but ultimately its like. "hey. you're still alive. we're still alive, despite what you thought was gonna happen. and we're just gonna have to contend with that now, okay?"
and everything is fucked and by the nature of things will always be at least a little bit fucked but that doesn't mean they have to suffer and roll over and die. Look at me. Look at me .
