The Wario Barker Collection

This is the (not finished as of yet) full collection of the stories written by Wario Barker. Some of these stories were published, while others were not.

The Four Stories
The four that began this whole lineup. The early ones were conceived when the author was very young, and hence may seem childish in nature.


 * The First Story: A girl, her father, and her best friend find a dog on the side of a lake... (originally written circa 1992)
 * The Second Story: Four sentient animals find themselves face-to-face with a certain blue box... (The Lion King / Doctor Who Crossover; originally written circa 1994)
 * The Third Story: Four Pokémon are sucked through a Time Gate, meeting a lamb who would later be Susan Wise... (originally written circa 1999)
 * The Fourth Story: Ash Ketchum and friends travel to Poorfield Beach, where they discover much more about not only themselves, but just how many worlds there are... (originally written circa 2002)
 * The Twelve Dimensions: The result of combining the above four. A young man collapses, then awakes in a strange land 1,000 years into his future with no way to get home...but with so much to see and do in these new worlds, would he even want to go home if given the chance? (originally written circa 2004)

Doctor Who: The Continuing Adventures
Chronicles the Doctor as he lives out his 13th incarnation. Although it appears to be the end for Ka Faraq Gatri, in reality he's just getting started...


 * Azumanga Who: The Doctor finds himself and his three daughters stranded in Japan, thanks to an unexplainable fault with the TARDIS. Although he merely wants to fix the Ship and leave, the Doctor requires help from a certain school — and several people from his tattered past have other ideas. (Doctor Who / Azumanga Daioh crossover)
 * An Azumanga Halloween: Tomo gets Yomi to dress up as the "super cow" from an anime they like, but Yomi doesn't feel comfortable with how "real" her costume seems to be. Those aren't prosthetics.
 * New Life: The Doctor's cute little stuffed kitten comes to life, thanks to an Iriomote cat who is more than he appears to be... (Doctor Who / Azumanga Daioh crossover)
 * Jani's Birthday Trip: The Doctor and Hannah take Jani Bodmann into his future, but the TARDIS ends up overshooting its destination...landing on an Earth ruled by the Supreme Overlord.
 * R&S Depression Syndrome: Rebekah and Sarah are captured, as are the Doctor and Hannah...but Rebekah and Sarah are helpless, and when all is revealed it sends the Doctor to the brink of sanity.
 * An Insignificant Choice: The Doctor feels a strange sense of dread about something that should be considered trivial at best. Making this decision won't change anything...right?
 * Phases of the Moon: The Doctor and Hannah, now alone, travel Earth as the TARDIS regrows. In March 1984, a strange girl calls for help from an abandoned German mansion... (Doctor Who / Moon Phase crossover)
 * The Matter of the Cake: The Doctor gets moody. Hannah tries to build a cake. There are words. And slapping.
 * Terror of the Zypedrians: The Doctor is summoned by the White Guardian to stop a Zypedrian before it kills Chris Davola — the first Human to meet the Venusians — before he is born in 1990.
 * The Final End: The Doctor, Hannah, Allura, and Chrissie discover that all is not well on the Eye Of Orion...and the menace behind it, who claims to have secretly controlled the Time Lord since his Eleventh incarnation, wants him dead for what may be the most plausible of reasons.
 * The Dreamer Wakes: Perhaps the Doctor shouldn't have known about this...
 * Death is But a Whisper: Someone is after the Doctor, Hannah, and Allura, and will stop at nothing to get his way.
 * ???: The Doctor regenerates once more, and things go very awry...

Other Fics
Stories where the focus is on someone other than the Doctor, but are in the same Fan Verse.


 * New Year's Eve: Azumanga Style: Six years after Azumanga Daioh, the girls get together to discuss what they'll do in the new year...and meet Nanami, the seven-year-old daughter of Yukari and Nyamo.
 * "Princess" Allura McCoy in the WWE: A familiar woman takes down a renowned Superstar, and finds herself employed by a certain man who thinks her "I've lived for over three millenia" story will guarantee big ratings.
 * The Reason Why: As Allura fights a deadly menace, Chrissie begins feeling a strange sense of dread and a young girl named Nadimia discovers the truth about the world...
 * Glass Life: Autobiography written by Allura in an attempt to clear her name, following events that completely destroyed her reputation.

 * Last Peace: Hannah finds herself in a familiar Alternate Universe and, with no way to leave and full knowledge of what happened to the Doctor, makes the worst decision of her life...

Altiverse Fics
What if...something, or somebody, had done something differently?


 * "New Beginnings" Altiverses (in which how we saw things begin may not have been the truth)
 * An Unearthly Hannah: Two teachers follow a strange ten-year-old student of theirs into her otherworldly home, and meet her father — a strange man who calls himself "the Doctor". (Doctor Who / Azumanga Daioh Crossover; alternate version of "An Unearthly Child")
 * Stars and Money: Six girls are thrust into a bizarre "test" — a game of high stakes, helmed by Gene Rayburn. (Azumanga Daioh / Match Game Crossover)


 * "Dreamscape" Altiverse (in which the author dreams strange things)
 * Mission to Pluto: The Doctor encounters "the Boss", who plans to turn the Time Lord into a killing beast...and only his mother and brother can save him.
 * Hawk, Bull, Slim, Slash: The Doctor finds himself involved in a lottery he cannot understand, as he plans to help a man save his own life.

 * Purchase of a Lifetime: A failing student discovers that things won't be bad for much longer...
 * Test #144: There are several doors, all leading to different sub-tests. Can the Doctor survive?


 * "Grim AzuBastion Altiverse (in which the events after "Jani's Birthday Trip" go very, very wrong)
 * A Grim AzuBastion, Indeed: The author mourns the passing of a former "home", while the Doctor faces off against a fierce race of beings who want to eat him alive.
 * Revenge of the Fallen: The Doctor finds himself in a strange new world, and Fate gives him the task of tending to a Kirlia who has also found herself in this place.


 * "Author's Immersion" Altiverse (in which the author finds himself inside the world he created)
 * Twenty-One Candles: Written for the author's birthday in 2009, the author struggles between the world he lives in...and the world he wants to live in.
 * Dreams...and What They Mean: The author's recent decisions scare him, and Hannah arrives to straighten him out.
 * Doctor Who and the Phoenix: The author is drawn to a contest where near-perfection is desired far more than people who would actually benefit from the services offered to the winner.
 * The Moro-Mirror: The author faces a doppelganger of himself, who has been spreading lies and falsehoods...
 * Mind's Vortex: The author relives the period of May 2008 to Fall 2009 while in a state of limbo, then decides to pull a Sam Tyler.
 * The Grand Eulogy: The author discusses thoughts on his father's life and (then-very recent) death with his characters, then forces himself to come face-to-face with his father's fictional counterpart — Samuel Dleifneb.


 * "Azumanga Who" Altiverses (in which things played out a bit differently from the author's canon...)
 * Deerfield Beach, 2050 AD: The author, living in a world that is near destruction, shares a deadly secret (and his deepest regret) as death approaches...
 * Azumanga Who (The Scripts): The original version, published in 2008. More stilted, more basic, and completely non-canon as of now.
 * Azumanga Who (First-Person Novel): The second version, now written from the Doctor's point of view. Was also viewed by the author as constricting.
 * AzuDaniel Draboh: Little cutaways starring various characters.
 * Tomo's Padlocked Box: Tomo and Yomi discover a strange box, and end up making a new version of a legend as old as time itself...
 * You Shouldn't Have Done That: The Doctor discovers just how quickly things can go to Hell...

Tropes invoked by these works include:

 * All Just a Dream / Or Was It a Dream?: Dreams are a common thread in these stories.
 * Dream Gates existed since The First Story — if the events in the dream would benefit the greater good in reality, it happens. Susan Wise appears to have had some power over the Gates, since no dreams involving pain upon her ever came to pass.
 * Several stories discuss the power of dreams, such as Azumanga Who (which also states that dreams of one Realm take place in the other, a thread visible in Hawk, Bull, Slim, Slash and Revenge of the Fallen).
 * Alternate Universe Fic: When the author began writing this continuity, Series 4 was still airing and he hadn't seen it. The Doctor hence regenerates into Ronald Howard, then Jonathan Gundrie, then Hugh Laurie. After that, things get...complicated.
 * The remainder of Ten's life was added later on, with An Insignificant Choice (production code ) as.
 * In early 2011, the author went farther back and made the timeline diverge at Nine's regeneration, although the sole difference was the Doctor's appearance/voice — Rich Karley, not David Tennant...but it seems the Karley appearance owes itself to the Doctor's faulty memories.
 * Arc Number: DB082319882358.
 * Backstory: The Twelve Dimensions. Allura's autobiography, Glass Life, is a literal example.
 * The Cameo: Many, from fellow authors to previous incarnations of the Doctor.
 * Crossover: ...Yeah.
 * Curtain Fic: The Matter of the Cake.
 * Dark Fic: Project RINI is the biggest example.
 * Downer Ending: Last Peace. Oy.
 * Fan Verse: Nearly every one of the author's stories share one continuity.
 * Five-Man Band: From the "Allura's Hospital" period,
 * The Hero: Allura McCoy.
 * The Lancer: Samuel Dleifneb; to a lesser extent, Soval.
 * The Smart Guy: Miss Goldwood/Glowbug, who actually owns the hospital but uses a lower job so . She also fills the peacekeeping role.
 * The Big Guy: Mew.
 * The Chick: Chrissie.
 * Game Show Appearance: Stars & Money.
 * Meaningful Name:
 * Susan Wise is taken from her original name (The Wise Old Lamb) and her real one; indeed, she even resembles her "actress" as she appeared in 1993.
 * Project RINI itself.
 * Never the Selves Shall Meet: Mainly because the Doctor . In The Final End, the Doctor.
 * The Other Darrin: Rich Karley plays the Tenth Doctor (albeit only in the Doctor's memories), and Ronald Howard plays the Eleventh. Howard played Sherlock Holmes in a 1950s television adaptation, while Karley is a friend of the author.
 * Person of Mass Destruction: Susan Wise.
 * Real Song Theme Tune: All chosen for having similarities to the Doctor Who theme.
 * The Dreamscape series uses a portion of DEVO's "Disco Dancer".
 * Revenge of the Fallen uses a portion of Pat Benatar's "Invincible".
 * Last Peace uses the short theme from AIR.
 * Other songs used include "Land of Confusion" (a portion), most of this, and the theme heard here.
 * Shared Universe: Occasionally, the author's characters have been seen elsewhere by various other authors — the Doctor and Hannah in AzuDrabble Daioh; Hannah in Azumanga Politburo: Project Alice; Allura's alter-ego Arulla in Every New Day; the Doctor, Hannah, and the First Doctor in It Was Upon A Space Christmas; and the Doctor in Memories.
 * While probably unintentional, the Fifteenth Doctor in Two of a Kind seems to resemble Daniel's, with Mystery somewhat resembling Hannah.
 * Shout Out: Oh, so much.
 * "NOOOO DRINKOOOO! Soberness still on!"
 * A certain slide whistle plays at one point during Azu-Who for no particular reason.
 * "Alright, class, today we'll do something different: The effects of gasoline...on fire."
 * "JANE, STOP THIS CRAZY THING!!!"
 * An Azu-Who chapter is completely irrelevant to the story and ends with a parody of the infamous St Elsewhere ending...which is then subverted in the next chapter by being a dream of the Doctor.
 * Later in Azu-Who, the Doctor, Yukari, and Osaka recite lines from "She Loves You" and its parody from The Dr. Demento Show. "I was starting to grow bored of that double reference, anyway."
 * An entire scene is basically the Secret Word gag from Pee Wees Playhouse, with the word being.
 * "A long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away... Oh, sorry. Wrong...copyright-brand...thingy."
 * "THIS...IS...SPINAL TAP!"
 * "Buh-lieve it or not, Daniel's not at home..."
 * Shown Their Work: The author uses a brief header in his works to figure out the best slotting in his canon.
 * Write Who You Know: Most blatantly Sam (the author's father), and to a lesser extent the Karley/Gundrie Doctors (the author's friends).
