Swap AU where Tallest Zim is a disastrous leader who should've been a frycook but grew too tall, and Invader Red & Purple are trying to fuck off from Zim by taking a random mission at this nowhere planet, Urth-something.

Zim considers them his finest invaders and is constantly checking in on their mission and sending them whatever they ask for, as they're doing the absolute bare minimum to pretend that they're doing their job

Meanwhile, they're basically just fucking around and hoarding earth snacks

Their classmate is Professor Membrane (it's unclear whether his first name is Professor or if it's just a nickname, no way he can be an actual professor already he's only 11 right??)

Membrane has an insane conspiracy theorist father (Dib "Agent Mothman" Membrane) who doesn't believe in santa and thinks "real science" is for people who aren't advanced enough to see the true nature of the universe, and so he's never proud of Membrane's inventions

Agent Mothman is convinced that his son's new classmates are aliens and develops a grudge against their leader, and he wants Membrane to spy on them for him, so he forces them to "be friends"

Red & Purple basically see Membrane as a follower who has to buy them infinite snacks because his weird parental unit said so

They also start to see Membrane as a master engineer who could get them cool gear and maybe help them assasinate their Cringe Fail Disaster Tallest so they can go back home to the empire and live comfortably
