Description
The second of my two entries for 's Valentine's Day Shipping Contest....
Was this what the humans called "dreaming"?
The scene WALL-E looked at made no sense: he and EVE stood upon the outer hull of the Axiom, gazing down at an Earth lusher and greener than the waste allocator had ever seen. He had no memory of this precise event, nor was there a time he could think of when it would ever have been possible.
Yet here he was, with his Evah, her hand comforting his back and his hand comforting hers. What else really mattered?
"Earth," EVE whispered gently to him, gesturing to the planet with her free fin.
"Green Earth!" WALL-E answered excitedly, happy to share this pristine sight with the probe.
"WALL-E's green Earth," EVE further replied, a light giggle ending her sentence.
This gave WALL-E pause, and he tilted his head a bit to the side at her statement with a slightly sad whistle.
Again, EVE giggled, nodding apologetically. "Correction," she said happily, "WALL-E and EVE's green Earth."
WALL-E's optics lit up happily, and he gave an improving nod. Thus the two stayed there, looking out at the healthy green Earth...
Their beautiful dream.

I love the story with this! You did a great job staying in character with the two, and the general ideal just makes you feel warm and fuzzy!

Very glad to hear you liked it so much. ^_^ It is indeed satisfying to give WALL-E and EVE chances to talk, too.

I love the haloing around the Earth, and the cute little interaction in the story - especially WALL-E's insistence on the togetherness aspect! The gentle touching between them is just wonderful, and EVE's angle is especially well carried off.

I was nervous about the haloing, as it was a last-minute choice to keep the blacks of WALL-E (eye cables and arm stripes) from intersecting too much with the black of space, so yay! It worked!

I like the role reversal -- instead of Earthlings gazing at the moon, it's WALL-E and Eve gazing at the Earth! ^^

Heh...thanks. Role Reversal wasn't exactly the intent; I did want the composition and setting to mirror the SonSal piece, but I just felt WALL-E as a story was so based in space that the pic belonged more there than on Earth.
