Fans like to ship Zim and Tak together as if they were in a relationship. This pairing is known as ZATR (Zim and Tak romance). However, this is non-canon and Jhonen Vasquez has said that he doesn't support it.

It was Valentine's Day, and Invader Zim was in love. Yes, Tak returned his affections, but since neither of them knew much about romantic relationships, they kept it pretty low-key.

When tragedy strikes, Zim is left alone, homeless, and shipless. With nowhere to go and no one else to turn to, Zim must resign himself to the mercy of his new lord and master, Tak.

Despite Tak's reasoning, Zim kept up his apprehensive questions the entire way home. Meanwhile, much further down the sidewalk, Dib had finally managed to catch up to his sister.

Thanks to a stupid Gir show, Zim has an idea, to make everyone adore him, love him. Well, all we can do is that after this, Zim can learn from his mistakes. (TAZR?) Zim is different after the tragedy, suffering a depression that Dib can't seem to break. When he disappears one day out of the blue, Dib is left searching for answers. /?
