GIR!
[Oh what the fresh hell is this.
Zim's certainly a sight here, a panicky, vaguely smokey sight, judging from the shadows and background, he's perched on top of the pod he woke up in.]
GIR, I can't reach you through the communicator link, you better be on this frequency, GIR, LISTEN TO ME.
[That's right. He's assumed that this is a private conversation. Here we go-]
I'm surrounded by water and if you do not get here right now, GIR, RIGHT NOW, I'm going to burn to death, are you listening? I need you at my coordinates right now, GIR!
I'm at-
[A pause, because he... doesn't... know where the hell he is, or what his coordinates are, or probably what day it is. There's some aggravated grunting]
Look just... just figure it out! GET OVER HERE RIGHT NOW, AND DON'T LET ANYONE SEE YOU! If I fall in the water and die, you can't have any more waffles ever again! ... EVER.
EVER, GET OVER HERE!

I'm working on it.
I was all the way by my apartment when I saw your message. The caves aren't exactly next door. Plus...it took me a while to remember how to get back.
[She hadn't exactly been in the best of minds upon her own arrival.]

WELL
[fuck you and your perfectly reasonable argument! He pretends he's too busy to talk by jamming the rest of the taffy in his mouth, sulking.]
[video]
[...well, at least, in the sense that it was difficult for him to argue against.]
[She maintained the connection all the while. Just in case. If Zim was more scared than he let on, seeing her progress would hopefully offer a small comfort. If he was just pissed off an impatient, it would be irrefutable evidence that she was still on her way.]
When I get close, you'll have to call out until I can hear you. It'll save us both the time of an unnecessary search.
Re: [video]
There's a lot of clicking around, the sound of metal on metal. Apparently he's just pacing around with those weirdo spider legs on the pod now.
Can't you just follow the primitive radio waves from these phones?
I can hear them, these communication devices are GARBAGE!
[Well, at least she'll definitely be able to hear him. There's a good chance they can hear him from three blocks down, with all this caterwauling.]
[video]
Unfortunately, my ears aren't as good as yours. I can't hear radio waves.
[Just the typical soundwaves audible to a human ear. And maybe sometimes other people's hearts, but that's a whole 'nother matter completely unrelated to this situation.]
I think I'm close, though. I see something that looks like a pod in the distance.
