If Not Enemies...

This piece was inspired by something I've often noticed in the show. While these horrendous acts of destruction and such are happening in the background, Zim and Dib will often hold conversations. As in, not screaming at each other in accusition conversations. In fact, it seems like some of the only times they can actually talk normally to each other, even seeming friendly sometimes.

Then there's this piece... No destruction or anything, but I don't think it takes a genius to figure out what HAS been going on. And in lieu of either a romantic moment (probably not gonna happen with these two) or an argument or fight of some kind, they're just talking. It's the dichtomy between their actions and their words that I found interesting...

By the by, this is more of an anime-ish style. If anyone is wondering, the little earring in Dib's ear was supposed to be the Irken symbol. This was done in Prismacolor markers and turned out a bit more dark than I thought. I was also too lazy to add a proper background. ^^ Ah well.
