It feels intimidating to post in this board because this is the first post here. I made this dumb but fun au a month back, and it's still taking up a lot of my headspace, so I thought I'd share. It takes place during Enter the Florpus, where Zim realizes that the Tallests aren't coming, and decides that the empire doesn't deserve his greatness if they refuse to recognize it. His mission for Earth changes to destroying it for himself. Since Zim is adept at destruction, he completes this and leaves without consequence. Zim travels the galaxy, making a living from shady dealings with other aliens, and leaves a path of disaster in his wake. This unintentionally causes the downfall of the Irken Empire, and he never makes that connection. It's not in character, but I really like the idea of Zim traveling around the galaxy doing hot girl shit and looking fashionable. I even drew Zim in one of his outfits:

ASFHfk thanks you! It's just very funny to me that fans often write about Zim having this dramatic rebellion against the empire when he learns the truth about his mission, but in my au he's in a casino on some planet, drinking some space whiskey and on the slots. He's getting mad that he never wins, so he breaks the machine in a rage. This causes the thing to explode, starting a small fire that eventually spreads across the block. The fire coincidentally destroys the base of an Irken invader who gets exposed to the alien population living there. These aliens get in their battleships and storm off towards the armada while Zim is pissed off while he flies away in his Voot Cruiser over not getting to play more because he got thrown out of the casino.

Typical of Zim to get kicked out of the universe's swankiest casino and ruin the mission of another Invader by accident. Good for him!
