Just something short and sweet that popped into my mind. Plus I wanted to practice creating a scene out of dialogue only, and let you guys know I haven't died, I'm just a little busy for fan pairings, yes, even the most amazing one ever. DX
I have information about the hold up on Prisoner of Nightmares on my profile if anyone was wondering. I apologize for that. Remind me next time I'm working on something to re-write more and wait until I have at least seven chapters ahead of time. :P

"Heh, uh so...
What? No need to jump up like that all scared like...
You thought Zim was asleep? Silly human. Irken's don't need sleep.
No, I was never sleeping, heheh, all your caution was funny. You may lay your head back down on Zim's chest. I let you before, Zim does not mind.
No really, lay back down like you were or I'll move you myself monkey. Zim was enjoying it.
Yes, that's right. Just like that.
Heehee... Victory for Zim... What? Oh nothing... Zim said nothing.
You're tired, aren't you?
...
You don't think Zim will understand? Just because it involves your 'emotions'. What ridiculousness is that! Zim is... Eh...
...
Well... Ahem...
Since you have surrendered- yes I know you don't want to talk about the surrender-ship, and being owned and dependant on Zim now, but you belong to me now, so, I can talk about whatever I want with you!
But... As such... Eh...
Can Zim... Inform Dib of a... Er...
...
Weakness?
You said you have lost all desire to fight the mighty Zim, and I can tell, with all my amazingness, that you were not lying, so... Zim thinks it may even be... Even possibly better that you know, since you'll be staying here, what with needing a place to live and all.
But...
Yes, Zim has bragged many times of how Irken paks shut out weaknesses such as emotions... But,
Zim's... Doesn't ...
work...
Zim feels.
Yes, shocking I know. I am Zim. The amazing Zim is defective. It is true.
...
I just, thought Dib may need to know...
I do understand your human emotions, to some extent. Yes. They ARE very painful.
...
Dib, Zim is not stupid. You are NOT 'okay' as you may want Zim to believe. Zim does not care if you are weak right now, I do not look down on you for it, er, not MUCH; but Dib has been through things that would traumatize any human. You are hurt. Crying is a simple coping mechanism. It is okay that you were crying. Nothing wrong about it, no need to cover up human.
...
Of course I know you were crying. I told you, Zim wasn't sleeping, I felt you hugging me and sobbing into my uniform. It would be kinda hard not to notice...
...
Why did I let you? Well...
I am not sure. Zim wants you to feel better.
I know you are in a lot of pain.
...
Zim hates it when people hurt his feelings too. It can feel like... Like breaking a bone, or worse, can't it?
It would be better for you to cry. It will damage your head-meats to attempt to hold in such misery. They did a lot of hurting to Dib's emotions.
Disowning you like that and kicking you out of your home.
Alright. If you want then. Zim wont talk about that.
...
Zim has... cried once or twice before too... To be honest. Heh... When no one was watching, of course.
It does make it feel better you know.
...
There is no one here for you to have to look strong for. No one you have to impress.
You have already proven your worth to Zim.
And I don't mind if you hug me and cry into my shoulder again. If you want to... Zim will let you. I want you to feel better. I am sorry about how you are hurting.
...
Yes, see? Zim is letting you. See?
It's alright human child. Zim is here.
It's okay to cry.
...
Zim will never kick you out and push you away.
Zim will be happy to keep you forever. And Zim will take good care of you.
You belong to me now.
Mine."
