is a Crossover Self-Insert Fic written by gelefant.
A portal appears in Jermaine's backyard and sucks him into the animated world of various Warner Bros. cartoon characters.
Artwork for the fanfic can be found here, here, here, here, and here.
Tropes:
- Alternate Tooniverse: Jermaine ends up in a Warner Bros. cartoon version of this.
- Ash Face: Wile E. Coyote gets this when the lit stick of dynamite he threw at the Road Runner bounces off a cactus and quite literally blows up in his face.
- Bear Hug: Jermaine gives these to Bugs Bunny, Wile E. Coyote, the Road Runner, Babs, Buster, Pinky, and the Brain.
- Cool Old Lady: Granny, as usual. She makes cookies and tea for Bugs Bunny and Jermaine after inviting them into her home. She even calls Jermaine "honey."
- Fainting: Jermaine passes out from excitement at the possibility of meeting Pinky and the Brain.
- Get a Hold of Yourself, Man!: As mentioned directly above, Jermaine faints when he learns he can meet Pinky and the Brain. Babs tries to slap him awake, but to no avail. He eventually wakes up around sunset.
- Hyperspace Mallet: Yakko pulls a mallet out of nowhere and whacks Jermaine over the head with it when he tries to Bear Hug the Warner siblings.
- Idea Bulb: Jermaine gets one when he realizes he can meet other animated characters.
- Idiosyncratic Wipes: Bugs Bunny thrice pulls at the landscape like a page in a book and lifts it up to transport him and Jermaine to different areas of Toon Land/Toon World.
- Massive Multiplayer Crossover: Of various Warner Bros. cartoons.
- Looney Tunes: Bugs Bunny, Wile E. Coyote, the Road Runner, Granny, Sylvester, and Tweety appear.
- Tiny Toon Adventures: Babs and Buster Bunny (no relation) appear.
- Animaniacs: Yakko, Wakko, Dot, Pinky, and the Brain appear.
- Mythology Gag:
- The way Jermaine is sucked into the world of Warner Bros. cartoons is exactly the same way the Nerdlucks were in Space Jam.
- Also from Space Jam, Bugs Bunny asking Jermaine "Were you expecting maybe the Easter Bunny?" after he arrives in Toon Land/Toon World is the exact same question he asked Michael Jordan when the same thing happened to him.
- Granny being a world-famous detective is a clear reference to The Sylvester and Tweety Mysteries.
- Much of Jermaine's dialogue when he meets the Warner siblings and later realizes he can meet Pinky and the Brain is lifted directly from the first episode of the Animaniacs reboot.
- Non-Fatal Explosions: The dynamite stick Wile E. Coyote throws at the Road Runner bounces off a cactus and literally blows up in the coyote's face. As usual, he suffers no injuries.
- Our Wormholes Are Different: As mentioned in the description, a portal appears in Jermaine's backyard and sucks him into the world of Warner Bros. cartoons. At the end, another portal appears and sends him back home.
- Shout-Out: Bugs Bunny saying "Choking, not breathing" when Jermaine gives him a Bear Hug is exactly what Timon says to his mom whenever she hugs him tight in The Lion King 1 ½.
- Trapped in Another World: As mentioned in the description, a portal appears in Jermaine's backyard and sucks him into the world of Warner Bros. cartoons. At the end, another portal appears and sends him back home.
