Zim blushed as he turned his head away from the girl he was walking with. IT seemed her name was Deeb. Witch did sound an awful lot like Dib but Zim had read somewhere that humans normally name members of their family similarly. He wasn't sure why though.
Dib was freaking out. Zim kept asking so many questions. What did he want? Had he figured out who he really was?

"So... what is it you like to do, then?" Zim asked, attempting to sound casual.
"Uh... I like to... meh... program." Dib muttered, realizing how nerdy he actually was. Who on Earth spent there days designing complex computer programs, even if most of them were used for recognizing paranormal material? But this seemed to elate his 'teacher', and he was shocked as Zim's wig tilted, the antennas beneath them rising.
"Really? I used to like programming when I was a sme-er-child! And engineering as well." Zim's smile was large, sharp, enthusiastic. Dib blinked, panicking. No... no... not... common interests? Dib blinked, staring. "My favorite was genetic mutation." Zim smiled. He seemed elated by the mere mention of the topic.
"Uh... yeah...." Dib mumbled, blinking harshly.
Taifu hummed, then frowned, glancing at the clock. Her roommate had been gone for a while - not that she really cared. Besides, it gave her enough time to figure out what kind of person this girl was. She swung off her bed, and walked into Dib's territory, unzipping one of the few bags he had brought.
And with that, her snooping began.

(the suddenness of 5 pages) Zim was appalled. How could he have so much in common with this human girl? And why was he happy about it? "So have you ever done any genetic mutations Deeb?"
Dib blushed confused. why was Zim so interested and happy all of a sudden? Then it hit him like a train wreck. ZIM LIKED HIM! well actually Zim liked Deeb but seeing as how Dib was Deeb it was still horrible. "Umm.. actually yes."
Zim's smile grew wider. How come he had never met this girl before?

Taifu tossed Dib's clothes over her shoulders, confused by the mass of men's clothing. She had figured for Dib to be the type of girl to wear frilly things after watching the televised interview. Taifu herself wore a lot of boyish clothing, as it was comfortable, but the sheer quantity of it was suspicious.
"What the... ooh... she's going to have some problems." Taifu snickered, realizing that within the bags, she couldn't fined one feminime product.
Dib bit his lip. Zim licked his own, hating how his heart was beating heavily. It was retched, this pounding in his chest. He wanted to claw his pupil's eyes out for the sheer confusion she caused, but at the same time, couldn't bare to even imagine bringing her harm. In fact, oddly enough, being dubebd a teacher toned down his violent tendencies a good deal.
"So... what was your biggest project?"
"Well...." Dib looked away, unsure. On one hand, it was a deep secret he had never told anyone. On the other hand, he had wanted to vent on it for several years, but he never had, considering he didn't want people to find him crazy. But Zim already hated the Dib he knew, so even if his identity was discovered, it would make no difference. "Um... well... you can't tell anybody."
"Ooh. Tell me." Zim leaned inward.
"Well...." Dib shook his head. "No... I can't." He jolted as he felt his shoulder grasped, saw those violet eyes glaring into him.
"I promise I will discourse to no one what you tell Zim."
"I... I... I tried to resurrect my mom once." Dib mumbled, desperate to get Zim off his shoulder, away from him. He didn't want the attention, he didn't want this sudden spotlight. He hated it, he hated every last second of the past few days. He found himself paling, clamming, feeling sick to his very stomach. He found anger taking over him - he didn't want to be a girl! He didn't want Zim touching him! He didn't want his secrets revealed! He didn't want to be in such a short skirt! And he found himself shuddering in his anger, clamming up, but these emotions were washed away by the sickness in his stomach before they could bubble into his face.

Zim stepped back from Deeb. "oh." he said softly. "I never thought of resurrecting anyone before." Why would he have wanted to his experiments were supposed to kill not revive. Zim looked up at Deeb to notice in surprise that she was crying. "Deeb?" For some unknown reason Zim leaned forward towards the girl and wiped her tears away with delicate gloved claws. "It's okay." He said unsure of how to react to this. Being a teacher he knew it would definitely not be wise to hug her, which was what he wanted to do the most right now , but perhaps he could cheer her up a little.

Dib realized he was crying, and stepped away, shaking his head. "I-I've got to go." he said shortly, but felt his shoulder jerked back as he attemped to escape. Concerned eyes met him again.
"I-I am not good with... emotions... but...." He ended up pulling Dib into a quick hug, so quick that it hardly lasted a second, hardly counting as a full hug at all. "Just, feel better." he said awkwardly, straying away.
Dib dashed away, squeezing his eyes. This was NOT happening. His heart was NOT racing a million miles a minute. He was NOT crying in public. He was NOT having a meltdown. He didn't care that other students stared at him as he desperately ran for his dorm.
Kinki looked up, her gaze a bit concerned. Miyaki had managed to pass out in the chair. "Zim-san." she said gently, a bit sad, sensing her teacher's confused, slightly hurt emotions. She shook her head. Things would be rocky for a while.
Taifu glanced down in the bag, frowning. She lifted the photo of the woman with long violet hair, her brown air gleaming. She was... stunning. Her hands trembled a bit, and she shoved it back into the bag as she heard loud footsteps down the hall coming nearer. She shoved the items back in fearfully, jumping back into her bed in an attempt to look casual.
She hadn't been expecting her roommate burst in tears, slamming the door, quivering as 'she' punched the wall in anger.

(Awe thats so sad and sweet XD) Dib, after taking out his frustrations on the wall collapsed on the floor. Tears we continuously streaming down his face. "Fuck you Zim." He cried in anger. Why did he have to do that? Granted it was Dib's fault for talking to him in the first place, but right now he just wanted to blame everything on someone.
Taifu stared at Dib. She couldn't be talking about the new teacher. HEr eyes narrowed as she recalled her conversation with him earlier. "What did Zim-san do Dib?"
Dib jumped surprised. He had forgotten that he had a room mate now. He shook his head. "Nothing."
Taifu glared. "people don't cry for nothing what did he Do? was he trying to rape you or something?!" Taifu wouldn't have put it past the American teacher to do something like that.

(well, i guess they're separate peices of me. fictional cml is more like me when im sugar-high (or at an amusement park) and taifu is more like my mood towards people within my own mind.)
"No... no... it was nothing... I swear." Dib muttered, pulling himself up, sitting on the end of his bed, removing his glasses. He noticed Taifu's strange stare as he did this. "What?" he snapped, wiping away at his tears, eyes puffy.
"You've got nice eyes." she said quietly, and he stopped rubbing for a bit, glancing at the mirror. He closed them, a pained look overtaking his features, and he shivered as he tried to regain his composure. She frowned, standing, approaching him. He was shocked as she sat across from him, eyes trained upon him. Her voice was low and even as she spoke. "What did he do to you? I swear, if he laid one hand on you-"
"I told you it's nothing!" Her eyes gazed into his, and he felt his stomach churn, feeling more sick than before. He was a bit shocked as a feminime product was thrust before him. "Wha-" He stared in horror through his tears.
Taifu nodded. "I... I noticed... you didn't have any...." she mumbled awkwardly, and his eyes strayed to his bags, which had crudelly been shoved back together - not her best work. She bit her lip, skulking away. "I'm sorry." she mumbled, sitting on the edge of her own bed, her gaze upon him. "Whatever he did... just... don't let it get to you. Most guys are stupid anyway."
He tossed the product unto the ground, and thrust into the sheets, closing his eyes against the sun that filtered through, ignoring the fact that it was broad daylight. He curled up, a choked sob in his throat, and pulled his pillow over his head.
Taifu stared a bit longer, then stared out the window, sighing. Class the next day would be far from pretty.

THE NEXT DAY!
Zim sighed as he rolled out of bed. He hadn't slept, not that he had expected he would, but the bed had been very comfortable and he liked relaxing. As he got ready to go teach his very first class he began to think about his actions yesterday. At this he visibly flinched. "STUPID! Why did I hug her? Awe this is terrible! Teachers can't hug students." He inwardly kept the fact that it wasn't just the hug that was bothering him.
Gir approached his master casually. "What's wrong master?"
"I think i like her Gir." Zim spoke softly. Gir nodded as if he knew what Zim was talking about before allowing him to leave the dorm.

Gir giggled, listening to the footsteps fade before zipping up his doggy suit and hopping out the window.
Taifu's eyes fluttered open as she heard the buzz of the dorm alarm clock. She groaned, sitting up, and ran a hand through her hair. She was about to reach up to turn it of, but was beat to it. She simply stared groggily as she watched a blurred form cross the room, and adverted her gaze to the wall as she heard clothes shuffling off.
"Hey, get up." she heard a voice mumble in her ear, and rubbed her eyes.
"I am up." she said groggily, her tongue stumbling over the words in her stupor, although her eyes remained pinched shut. She felt her shoulders shook, and rolled over, staring blearily. She felt her heart thump a bit eerily as she met chocolate eyes, gentle gold specks just barely flickering in the iris. She sat up, shoving Dib aside, who strutted off, gathering his books. "Taifu."
"Huh?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.
"My name. It's Taifu. I'm going to the showers." she mumbled groggily, grabbing her clothes and stumbling off, out the hall, and to the dorm showers. He watched her go, feeling a faint thud in his chest. Everything was so... awkward. The only thing he could focus on, though, was breakfast.
Miyaki starred up at her ceiling. Another night, refusing to sleep. She dragged her hand down her face, feeling ill, which she in fact was. Very few - perhaps only three people - knew so. The sun seemed to scald her pale flesh, and she groaned, sitting up, rubbing her eyes, a sillhoute in the gleaming light. "Damn." she muttered.

(AHAHA! She seems like a vampire XD)
Kinki reclined in her chair. Even though she was psychic the chairmen still required her to attend classes. What a bore. "At least we have the squiggly love pentagon to look forward to." Funny enough Dib, Taifu, Miyaki, Htisikaru, and herself all had the same class. Which was in fact the class that Zim-sama was going to be teaching. Kinki chuckled and sat back more to watch the drama unfold.

Dib followed the general population to the cafeteria, and took a seat in the back, leaving his books on the table to mark his spot. He then lifted himself, and made a straight line towards the table of food, mowing down his peers in his eagerness to eat. Being a teenage boy, he was starving.
Taifu came out of the shower, not surprisingly, with another hair color. Today was apparently a day for a shocking tone of white, which hung down instead of it's normal spike upwards. She felt to lazy to apply her styling gel, and simply stalked out of the bathroom, attempting to pull her skirt to an acceptable point as she walked. She glared at the other freshman staring at her, not caring quite what they thought of her hair or the fact that she was adjusting her skirt. She had one thing on her mind - flapjacks.
Miyaki noticed Dib poking at his food in the corner, and shoved her tray unto the table he was at, plopping down across from him. He stared at her selection - a cinammon role and two cups of coffee she horded glutonously. "Here, take it." she muttered, shoving the cinammon role towards him, only interested in the coffee.
"No, you should eat something."
"Can't hold it down." Miyaki muttered, ignoring the burn on the roof of her mouth as she guzzled down the coffee. She rose an eyebrow at his gaze, and lowered her paper cup. "Hey, chill. I'm fine." she mumbled, and her eyes strayed to the teacher area. Her eyes grew huge, face becoming even paler when she saw a particuliar green figure poking at a plate of waffles. Her cup dropped. "Maybe not."
