Eh heh. Already drew it, will upload it some time B)
I talked about this on my main blog but I’ll talk about it here too because…it’s awesome to me. The parallels between Gem society and Irken society are blatantly intentional. Rebecca can’t hide it, I’ve seen her IZ fanart. Foooorrrr example: Color-coded leaders who are praised without question and are, by design, much taller than their subjects. A society where defects are treated as a joke or a threat and are terminated. Members of both societies are created knowing exactly what their purpose is. A race that exists solely to conquer other alien worlds! Constantly spreading their empire, both not giving a single shit about our planet! Peridot and Zim simultaneously being full of themselves but happily accepting their inferiority with an encompassing need to impress their leader(s), not to mention being accompanied their little robot “helpers”. For me, Peri can basically be considered a character study regarding what would happen if Zim were to rebel against his society.
Also, Ronaldo. Nobody can tell me that he’s not a reference to Dib. He’s just…got less dignity.
