Post Traumatic Florpus Disorder: Back in Skool

Summary:

Back in school. Back in place, Back in school, Back in Chains, Back in school, back in my cage.

Dib is finding it hard to go back to Skool. Especially since after the Florpus last summer, Zim just disappeared. No doubt he's planning something more horrible than he did last time. That can mean the death of mankind and his family. He has to be Vigilant. Or..... maybe Zim is planning nothing...

Fourth in a series. Takes place after Return to Judgementia. I recommend you read the rest of the series first.

“A world that does not remember Zim??”

As you lay there, schmooping... the world is already forgetting about you... your Tallest are already forgetting about you... Dib has the support of his father and has moved on...0̵̛͖̠̓̎͆͜1̶̟̎0̷̜̿͆͑1̶̞̄͘1̸͙̲̄ͅ0̸̼̍͂̚͝0̴͍̤̜̘̎1̸̨̳͙̱̂ ̶̰̏̅͑0̷͚͙̱͊1̴̢̘̠͇̐̑1̷̨̰̍̋͠͠0̵̰͉̻̔̈͜1̴̲͊1̴̯͙̈́1̴̬̲̬̆̈́̋̿1̸̙̹̝͗̏̈̊ ̶͖̏0̴̘͈̮̳̽̄1̵͚͚̌̿̊1̷̠̟͒̄̽1̷̘̩͇́͘0̶̰̱̈̍͑̐1̶̨̩̻͝0̷̝̎̊͆̎1̵̬̾ ̴͍̤̱̍̒0̸̼͉̭͓̒͊͠0̶̪̟̬̈͗̅̂1̵̹͎̩̦̂͑̏0̸͈͉̣͇͂0̴̢̺̈́̓̈ͅͅ0̶̟̞̥̎0̷̱̼͇̆̆0̴̳̟̠̒̽̕ ̴̩̠̔͠0̵̖̌1̷̙́͌1̵̢̝͂0̷̪̥̗̥̾̕0̶̡̜̾͐̂0̴̨̮̩̿͜0̸̻̳͕̜̌͑͗͝1̶̲͚̓͒̓̓ ̶̥͆̉͆͝0̴̬̹͂̿̿1̵̤̘͗͋1̸̢̳̋1̷̼̝̙̓0̵̪͇̖̭̅̐̕͠0̵͈̝̙͓͒̓̐1̷̝̙͇̐̏͐̿0̵̯̑̅͌̈ ̵̦̜̣͗̏̉͒0̸̳͔̑̑1̷̲̙͕̮͂̆̿1̸̆̉̔̚͜0̴̧̭̙̺̔0̶̢̗̽̌1̸͙̐͂̐͠0̴͎̼͔̋̊1̵̞̰̞̊͝ ̴̧̤̪̝̓0̵̧͙̲̌̓0̸͎͒̀1̶̞̳̈0̶̧̲̻̓̂̇0̸̠͛̏̐̓0̷̹̳̩̇̋͠0̶̛̪̘͂͒̂0̵̰̙͉̈́ ̶̫̲̄0̵̱͑́̂1̸̜̅̽1̵̛̖̳͐̅0̶̡̛͓̖͠͝1̸̤̗͕͘1̸͎͉̜̂̎1̴̹̅̌̈́0̷̱̬̈͘ ̴̰̑͒͊̊0̷̤͌1̶̧̩̬͕͆1̷̦͍͙̏0̵̠̎̀̑̂1̵̖̍͗͒1̷͙̯͈̖͆1̵̠͓͂̔͑1̴̲̓͘ ̴͉̈́0̸̛͍̤̃̀̉1̷̘͚̪̉͝1̸̛͈͔̠̉͌1̵̡̰̤̠̂̉̚0̷͚̤͈͆̏͠1̶̖̤͕̃͝0̸͎̭̈́0̷̘͒̈́ ̸͕͉̥͙͑̈̽0̴̱͍̾̆͜͝1̵̧̤̠͉̏̌̾1̵̹͂0̷͍̫̔̒1̸̪̠̊̑̓̅0̶̘̝̉͗0̵͖̦̱͌͑̊͠0̷͇̚͠ ̴̨̬̇̿0̵̺̯̤̅1̷̹̝̺̼̉͂1̷̣͋̓̿͆0̸̺̖̒͂͗1̵̨̧̄0̶͓̟͈̌̂̽͠0̶̼̝̓̊͜1̴̪̞̣̓ ̴̝̗̼̈́͊0̶̩̾͛̈̕1̸̛̱̺̱̏̓1̴͈̯͈̅̔0̸̯̆1̴̪̮̇1̶̪͔͑̀̈́͗1̸̢͉̱̄0̴̪͉͒̊͛̒ ̵͚̘̏̒͝0̴̥̱̘̚1̴̛͇͗̌͘1̵̹̻́0̶̲͌́͂̅0̶̤̑̔͛͠1̸͚̭͋̔͋͘1̴͙̖̎1̷̦̯̩͗̐͘͘ ̵̒̉͝ͅ0̴͙͐̀̇͝0̸̨͍̤̩͗̽͘1̵̧̭̝͉͋0̴̻̩͇̓0̴̞̲̗̳̐͗̉0̴̛̥0̶̖̫̻̅̉͌̄0̴̥̹͋̿ ̶̱̓0̶̢͓̜̏̈́1̸̗͚̺͈͋̊1̸͕̣̺͗̊̊̚1̶̣̣̈́̚0̴̛͍̈͂̈1̴͍͐̓̈́͘1̵̗̯̒̎͘͝1̷̩̲͆͊ ̷̯͚̣̑̈́0̶̨̙̜͇̑̐͠1̸͈̗̖̙̄̔́1̴̛͠͝ͅ0̵̞̄̏͠1̸̤͈̮̌̈͝͠0̴̛͚̿̌0̸̧͓͈͋̃̽1̸͔̙͎̫̌͆͛ ̸̜̼̱͔͊̆̈0̸̮̏͊1̷̬̣̪̕1̷̬͇̋̈͝1̶̠̿0̸̜̪̾̈1̶̛̦̝͜0̶̳̞̹̪̏̆͗0̸͚̞͍̊͐͋ ̸̭͖͚̹̈́0̸̟̱̜̾̈́͘1̴̧̖͇̅̿̋ͅ1̶̲̮̯̤͑͋̕0̴̛̪͗1̶̡̬̮̼̌̿0̸̬̊̉̕0̶̗̲̰̀̅̕0̵̨̞̬̖̚ ̷̢̨̭̓0̶͔̫̈1̴̨̩̪̂͐͠1̵̛̮͎̲̌̄̊0̶̢̰̀̆̕1̴̣̃͛1̷̡͍͂̕1̴̘̫͌̈͜1̶̬̳̩̅̌͜͠ ̷̢̽͊͝ͅ0̵̡̭̞̇̇1̷̭̬̩̈́͐1̶̮͝1̶͎̔͠0̸̖̳͘͠1̶̧̡̌̈́̔̈́͜ͅ0̵̯̫̊1̵̡͓̆͋͗̌ ̵̧̳̣͖͊͂̕0̴̪͖͐̈́1̸͈̖̎̏̊̂1̵̺̅̔1̴͙̻̮̊̒̇0̵̢͖̅̉1̴̛͔͚̎̉͒0̴͓͛0̸̱͖͗͠ ̶͕̬͌͐̂͘0̴̛̘̲̳̯̅͗̉0̴̹̺͔͊͗̉1̷̮̟̦̇͋0̵̨̻̪̗̅̋͝0̷̪͉͖͖̊̎̓̈0̸͉̍̓̅͝0̵͓͉̟͖̑͒͋0̵̖̞̞̗͛ ̷̙̜̿̊̕0̵̛̯̱̳̄̀1̵̢̡̛̹̘̒͘͝1̷̡̯̣͂̉0̶̺̯̱̔̂̌̆1̶̢̮̘̌͛͋͜0̸̗̲̼̌͘͝ͅ0̷̲͎̄̔̌̋0̴͔̻̂͂͋ ̶͓̂̓̈́̑0̸̢͓̦͈̒̋͐͋1̷̭̥̗͑̿̄͠1̷̝͈̩̞͋0̴̤̥͑́1̵̘͋0̸̭̻̞̈́̃͋͘0̶̪̞̅̍̎͝1̶͓̟̬́ ̶͓̖̍̀0̵̡̞͛̊͌1̴̞̊̽̏̚͜1̴͉͓͘0̴͚̕1̷̥̊1̸̮̞̾̎0̶̣̃1̶̛̥͎͇͈̉̎̈ ̴̫̪̟̺̆͐̽͝0̴̙̙͕̃͗͐0̴̫̰̭̉̈́͝0̷̹̞̈0̸̭͚̈͠1̸̹͍͚̤̏͌0̸̡̦̩̪̽̂1̵͍̦̤̩͆̂͊̚0̸̨͉̉.

Notes:

While Zim is recovering from his “difficult battle” from Skool, It looks like the Membrane Family will have a little get-together with Zim’s Family real soon.

Chapter 9: Bonus Chapter: Parent Teacher Night from Membrane's Perspective

A few Bonuses:

 

Notes:

So while Dib was dealing with his own enemy, Membrane was dealing with an enemy of his own. Membrane means well... Tries to be a better parent by attending the first parent-teacher night in person IN YEARS....perhaps ever..... then proceeds to ignore his children.... He tries. He's not doing this maliciously I swear lol.

Anyways, that's all of the Back to Skool arc! Hope you like it!
I've been working on "the toy" which is the next arc before the GIR arc in tumblr.

Reminder, more of the au is available on my Tumblr. It's just uploaded to Ao3 so it will all be in one place, rather than juggled between my old blog and my new blog.

Notes:

Dib was angry he didn’t see Zim in skool after all that, because he was for certain he would. He thought Zim would gloat and be obnoxious he was that close to conquering the Earth. Just like he usually does when he “almost wins”. Just because the Earth got sent back to normal and no one cares doesn’t mean he doesn’t have to not care with the rest of them. Zim had to be planning something huge... it’s the only explanation... and he’s going to get to the bottom of this.. and with his Dad’s support he’ll be able to expose Zim faster than Zim can even say “Eh”

There’s a lot of references to Membrane’s Guide series in this but it’s not necessary to read.

All you need to know is that Zim took to hiding in a toilet around the same time Dib stopped coming to Skool last year when his father had a traumatic shark attack and had a long road of recovery.

(Zim thought he was being ignored... hid in a toilet... and Dib didn’t notice and started to be a recluse until sometime last summer.. and that’s when he became a chair..hope that’s understandable.)

Also, as I said before, the full au is available on tumblr, this is just an archive where I upload everything chronologically.
