A/N: Hello! Welcome to the 2nd episode of the Void Ship Saga, my collection of Doctor Who crossovers. I fully except that fans of Adventure Time will not be fans of every story I use, so I've provided a "Book of Spoilers" to fill in the gaps. The previous chapter was "Lab Wolf," a Doctor Who and Portal crossover. If you are not a Portal fan and have no interest in becoming one, I suggest you read Lab Wolf's corresponding spoiler chapter [linked here].

Each chapter has two sections. The first one, background information, is designed to allow newcomers to a particular fandom to read my fanfic with all the information they need to get the references. The second section simply provides the salient plot points of my fanfic so that you can go right back to reading the story you want to read without reading the proceeding episode(s).

This is all designed so you don't have to read a story catered to a fandom you're not in to understand the entire Doctor Who plotline.

You might miss some funny dialogue, though.

Allons-y, time travelers!


Rose stepped out of the TARDIS and grinned.

"Look at that! Where do you think we are?" She spread her arms to the wide sky, the inflated clouds. She took a few steps, keeping her eyes above her.

"Some sort of cartoon, probably. No way anything remotely realistic would look like this." He held out a hand. "Even I look weird."

"Did they have cartoons in Gallifrey?" Rose asked before she could bite back the question. It was so frustrating not to know anything about The Doctor's past. He would've been the most precious child!

"'Course they did. I used to draw them sometimes."

"You're kidding."

"Maybe I am. Nothing's for sure in a cartoon!" He jumped onto a rock and shielded his eyes. "Look around you. Everything's made up of just a few lines." Rose nodded.

"Alright, a cartoon. Never thought I'd live within a Sunday morning program."

"Little kids all over are waking up early just to see us." He shook his head with a mixture of energy appreciation. "Inspiring stuff." He took Rose's hand and took one step before pulling her down behind some bushes. "Trademark number one: spying." He waggled his eyebrows at Rose and she laughed—she couldn't help it; the animation pulled The Doctor's eyebrows right off his face! He smoothed a hand over his hair and looked at Rose with a hint of concern.

"What, does my hair look weird?" She kept laughing until she was doubled over. She unsuccessfully gestured to his face and broke down again.

"Fine, if you're going to be like that." He pulled out a mirror and examined himself. "Oh, that's funny." He made increasingly exaggerated faces at himself while Rose refocused on the path outside the bushes.

"We're we supposed to be watching for something?" She whispered. He pushed the mirror into his pocket at the sound of voices.

"Right, spying."

"Right. Some spy you are." Rose had to clamp down on her laughter as The Doctor gave her a hurt look. Something about this world made her want to smile at everything, like people were made of sugar and adventurers always made it out OK.

Two people were walking along the path. They walked with misplaced purpose, like a child's drawings. Their feet always seemed to hit the ground at an angle. The one closest to Rose shook his arm and sighed. He wore a white hat and a green backpack, and it looked like something was clamped around his arm. Upon further inspection—not too hard since the bushes seemed to be made for spying games—she noticed the boy's friend was a dog.

"That dog's talking."

"Yeah! Neat, isn't it?"

"That's a talking dog."

"And that's a talking snail," The Doctor replied, pointing at the ground by his feet. "Hello!" The snail waved back. The boy shook his arm around and watched as the chain flew behind his elbow.

"Doctor, he's stuck. We should help him." She got herself up and walked toward the pair. They noticed instantly, the boy's face lighting up, the dog's tail going limp.

"Look at those guys. Maybe they know how to get this thing off!"

"I don't know, man," the yellow dog said uneasily. "He looks a little funny to me. What if he's the jerk taking all the candy people?"

"No way! You're just scared from visiting the Fire Kingdom."

"Not too fond of us, it seems," The Doctor muttered to Rose out of the corner of his mouth. "Maybe if I show them…this?" He whipped out the Sonic Screwdriver and opened the lock around Finn's arm.

"Yeah, alright!" Finn turned to Jake. "He likes science, just like PB! I'm sure he's cool." The adventurer extended his hand to The Doctor. "I'm Finn. This is Jake." He gestured to the dog that stood on two legs for some reason.
"I'm The Doctor, and this is Rose." The Doctor took his glasses out of his pocket and put them on. "Fascinating." He leaned down to get a better look at Jake and took out his Sonic Screwdriver. "May I…?" Without waiting for an answer, The Doctor began scanning him.

"Hey!" Jake stretched out his arm and smacked The Doctor's hand.

The Doctor exclaimed and took a step back. "Unnecessary! But incredible. You can—?" He wiggled his fingers. Jake frowned and stretched his neck so he was eye-to-eye with the strange, insensitive man. Rose stepped between them.

"So is he your companion or something?" She asked, patting Jake's head. Jake opened his mouth and relaxed.

"Nah, we're just bros." The boy fist-bumped his stretchy friend and continued down the path. "Nice meeting you, non-candy people."

"It's 'The Doctor,'" the Time Lord called back. "And what did you say about people being taken?" The time travelers caught up with the boy and his dog. "We'd like to know about that."

Begrudgingly, Jake let Rose and The Doctor fall in step beside them. Finn explained:

"This is a pretty peaceful place, but lately a bunch of candy-people are going missing. We suspect monsters," he added easily. "And that's what we're here for!" He jumped onto a rock and drew his sword. Rose caught her breath. It may have been a simple cartoon, but he looked purely…heroic standing with his weapon drawn, his face fierce.

"Do you mind if we come with you?" Rose asked.

"Well, uh, it's normally just the two of us," Finn said uneasily. "But I guess—"

"That's not how thing roll around here, strangers." A pale girl materialized behind Finn. Her long black hair seemed to cast a shadow around the boy, and she grinned, showing off her sharp teeth. "Those two work alone. Besides," she added as The Doctor took out his glasses once more. "I know something you need to hear." The Doctor nodded at Rose and leaned down so his mouth was right beside her ear.

"Trademark two: information." He raised his eyebrows at the vampire and Rose covered her smile. The Doctor was obviously enjoying the animation side-effects much too much.
