About the last post--I should have said prompt fest, but it can also be considered a mini drabble thon. Whatever you want to call it, this is how it'll go--

Comment with a prompt or phrase (i.e. "pear", "the clock winds down", "strike", etc.). Someone, anyone, can then write something small based on that prompt and reply to your comment with what

Directive A-113 and EVE. That's right, EVE. >:)

She didn't know whether she hated him or felt sorry for him. Eve stood before the inert form of Auto on the bridge of the Axiom, as she had several times before this, and still felt conflicted. Yes, the pilot hurt Wall-E, but could she truly blame him for it?

Directive A-113 . . . that's what the 700 year old directive was called, that Auto had followed all this time. In the past, that sort of loyalty to one's directive would have inspired admiration in Eve, but now she just sort of felt sad. In the end it only resulted in Auto being shut down and forgotten, collecting dust on an equally abandoned starliner.

Why did he follow it for so long? Was it loyalty to Shelby Forthright? The desire to keep control of the humans? Or was it the only thing he had left?

Eve didn't know the answers to those questions. Eventually she moved closer to Auto and brushed some of the dust off his casing, then turned and left as confused as she was when she arrived.

A WINNER IS YOU.

Ah, very nice. I particularly like the note about how EVE would have once admired AUTO's loyalty, it's a good insight into her character. :)

There was a part of her that didn't want to face him

Oooh, VERY nice. Similar to shadowwolf's take, but also very distinct from it as well. The panicked way you describe EVE's memories is very effective. ^_^
