Hello! Here, we'll get closure on M-O and D-FIB, and take a trip through the future.

A few weeks after the funeral…

D-FIB approached her late husband's grave. "Hey, M-O. I know you probably can't hear me, but I thought it'd be nice to keep you updated on our daily lives.

"So, Benny and I have gone back to work. It's hard to come home knowing you won't be there, but we're adjusting. And just in case you're worried, WALL-E's okay. He didn't come out of his trailer for a while after the funeral, but he's coping with the new normal.

"I guess this is the new normal for now. It's a big change, but…" D-FIB rested her paddle on the marked stone. "I'll get used to it. Because you know I can."

She pressed her screen against the hard surface. "Goodbye. I love you."

A few months later…

D-FIB excitingly rushed over. "Hey, I have great news, M-O! There's going to be a fundraiser to help find a cure for the cancer that took you away. And I'm one of the robots in charge!"

She blabbed on about the details, finishing with, "And I hope they find a cure sooner rather than later. I don't want anyone to go through what you had to."

A year later…

D-FIB had periodically kept visiting M-O's grave, letting him know about the progress and how their friends were doing and about her own life. Sometimes, Benny came along, other times he came on his own, such as now.

"Hey, Father. Mom probably already told you, as she knows, but...I think I'm in love. Kitty's an amazing robot, I can't begin to describe how I adore her. I wish you were here to give me advice on how I tell her. Mom and Aunt EVE told me that if I can't say it, I should show her. The problem is, I can't decide what to do. Ugh, this is so confusing!"

Benny clutched his head, then looked up. "I guess that's how you felt when deciding if you liked Mom or not. Love sure is confusing."

He stayed there for a while in silence, allowing his mind to get out of its jumbled state.

A few years later…

D-FIB spoke through happy tears. "They did it, M-O. They found a cure. No one will have to suffer through that horrible cancer again. Can you believe it?"

She placed a bundle of fresh blossoms in front of the grave. "In other news, Benny says that to celebrate, he's going to propose to Kitty. With our wedding rings. I'm glad I didn't bury yours with you."

She sighed. "Life's moving on so fast. If only you were here to see it. But I can't dwell on what might've been."

A decade later…

D-FIB led a tiny little robot. It had a minty green tint, a glittery leafy design, and yellow eyes that looked just like M-O's.

"Okay, Clover, we're here."

Clover stared at the grave. "He's really in there?"

"Well, only his physical body. I believe his spirit's up there." D-FIB pointed at the sky.

"Why did we come here, then?"

"Sometimes, I like to talk to him here. If you have anything you want to say to him, it's here."

"Okay."

Clover took a deep breath. "Hi, Grandfather. I've never met you, but I've heard a lot about you from Grandma and my parents and everyone who's known you. You sound like a nice robot, and I wish I could've gotten to know you. But, fate had other plans, I guess."

She placed a hand over her chest. "But I love you, even though you're not here. I hope you've been resting well."

Clover smiled, not noticing D-FIB trying to hold back tears.

Life continued going on. D-FIB, as M-O had wished, enjoyed her life with her expanding family and friends. But, as their times were not limitless, it wasn't long before others joined M-O. WALL-E was the first to go, having passed away peacefully in his slumber, EVE finding out when his battery rejected the sunlight. Then VAQ-M. Then PR-T. Then L-T. D-FIB was crushed with each death, but they also reminded her of her own mortality. When she started slowing down, she knew it'd only be a matter of time before finally reuniting with her lover. But, she had one last request.

EVE helped her friend over, holding her up as she spoke. "This'll be the last time I visit you in life, M-O. I can feel my death approaching. I can't wait to see you again. I'm sad to leave Benny and our grandchildren and friends behind, but they'll be okay. Goodbye. I'll see you soon."

Later that day, D-FIB was found dead in her home, looking out the window.

D-FIB found herself in a land full of fresh green grass and the bluest lakes she'd ever seen. The atmosphere was calm, the sun giving off a warm light. The sky was filled with purples and pinks and oranges.

In the middle, stood a very familiar tree. Next to it, was an even more familiar figure.

She started towards him, speeding up gradually, eventually catching him in a hug, then a kiss that had been delayed for thirty years.

She then broke apart from him, noticing he looked just like the time they'd first met. She inspected herself and saw that she was younger as well.

"You look good," she told him.

M-O chuckled. "The afterlife does do wonders for your body."

He then looked to the distance, at a bright light. He held out his brush. "Come with me. The others are waiting."

D-FIB looped her paddle over his roller, then they both went into the brightness, where they would be together for eternity. Never again would they be separated. Their love was just too strong.

Back on Earth, Benny looked to the sky. He had cried out all his tears, so he felt numb.

The sky was darkening, then two stars appeared, very close to each other. At least his parents were at last reunited.

"Benny!" Kitty appeared next to him. "I know today was hard, but are you going to sleep?"

"Y-Yes, I'll be there in a moment."

He continued to watch the stars blink into view in the night sky, eventually falling asleep like that. Kitty considered moving him, but decided against it.

The rest of the night was a peaceful one, a child, deep in his slumber, comforted by his parents in the sky.

And that's it. Possibly the last WALL-E fanfic you can expect from me. I feel very bittersweet about it, but I don't have any other ideas.

But at least this is where I'll be wrapping up. Goodbye for now, WALL-E fandom.
