Here's a drabble for
open_on_sunday's challenge "Eve".
And You Should See The Pumpkins
Janie adjusted her black-and-white costume and knocked. "Trick or treat?"
A smiling blonde woman opened. "Kaaaaaark!"
"...Sorry?"
"You're a penguin! Penguins like fish. Enjoy!" She handed Janie a can of sardines.
"Uh... no. I'm EVE." Janie flapped her "wings" demonstratively.
"Oh, Eve! The first human woman! Enjoy!" An apple.
"No... y'know, EVE. From Wall-E?" Blank stare. "A robot...?"
”Really?” The woman's face brightened. "I'm a robot too! What are you programmed to - "
A redheaded woman clamped her hand over the blonde's mouth and tossed Janie a Snickers. "Uh, happy halloween! Buffybot - inside."
Janie shrugged and continued her round. Adults are weird.

Date: 2011-11-01 09:10 am (UTC)I had to search for a while to find a good picture of an EVE costume. Everyone seems to want to dress their kid up as Wall-E, but comparatively little love for the ass-kicking female robot... :(
