MaliBrooklyn

Malibu (Barbie) Roberts x Brooklyn Roberts is the femslash ship between Barbie Roberts (from Malibu) and Barbie Roberts (from Brooklyn) from the Barbie fandom.

Big City Big Dreams
Barbie Roberts has received a spot at The Handler Preforming Arts Academy in New York for a summer program. She hopes this can help her achieve her dreams of being a Broadway star, this is why she so eagerly got there a day earlier. Barbie runs into an African-American girl who did the exact same thing as her, came early. They realize they have the same dream, to be on Broadway, and already seem to be friends. They go up to the dorms, and both put their hand on the same handle. They are confused, they both thing this is their room because it has the name 'Barbie Roberts' on it. They realize to their shock and delight that they are both named Barbie Roberts. The new Barbie quickly comes up with a solution to nickname the original Barbie we all know as Malibu since that is where is is from, and she will be Brooklyn. Barbie and Brooklyn are super excited to be roommates, and start decorating their room, but get distracted having fun and getting to know each other in their dorm.

They play their guitars and sing the song 'Before Us' and some of the lines are "For the fist time I found my perfect match," and "How did we ever survive, without us?" "It's like we're meant to be, like destiny, so right!" While they sing it's a montage of them in their dorm doing romantic things like feeding each other pizza, making their stuffed animals kiss, laying on a mattress listening to music together, and putting their toothbrushes together and squeezing toothpaste over them both.

As they begin to go through the program day after day, they meet Rafa, a costume designer who gives them a matching set of dresses, which are supposed to light up but they are broken apparently. On their day off from classes they go out and about in town and a park, similar to a date. They start dancing around and goofing off, and they take each other's hands and start spinning. The dresses light up and sparkle! Through the magic of love? No, apparently just by spinning it activated it. But it really seemed like a gay moment.

Barbie and Brooklyn are both very close to being the top student, and the top student wins a spotlight show in Times Square. They both want to do it. But at the same time, don't want to do it without each other. Barbie, Brooklyn, Rafa, and Brooklyn's old friend Emmie, who is secretly a celebrity are goofing off and dancing, but Barbie accidentally knocks Brooklyn off the stage when she trips.

It turns out Brooklyn twisted her ankle and she has a crutch. Barbie is happy she's okay and is going to help her any way she can. Brooklyn almost falls when trying to use the door but Barbie catches her, with a hand on her back and one holding her thigh. They both smile embarrassedly at each other. Barbie gets called into the Deans office and she is going to be in trouble. Emmie's dad was trying to sabotage them so Emmie could win the show, but she doesn't want it. He reported to the Dean that Barbie pushed Brooklyn, and Barbie has to go home. Brooklyn starts to believe that Barbie actually did push her, and gets upset with her. This results in them singing "Playground of my Dreams", which is like a typical break up ballad.

Rafa has video of the moment where Barbie fell on Brooklyn and he proves Barbie innocent. Barbie has already left and is at her home in Malibu, she's sad and cuddling the plushie corgi that represents Brooklyn in this moment. But Brooklyn literally flies across the country to get Barbie because she doesn't want to be at the Academy without out. She shows up at her door, apologizing, and they reunite, Barbie runs down the stairs and into her arms. They get back to New York and the Academy in time to see who won the spotlight solo show, and it just says 'Barbie Roberts'. They have no idea who won it but they are both squealing in happiness because they are so happy for each other. It turns out they both won it, and they sing together "See You At The Finish Line."

Barbie & Barbie: Double The Fun
Barbie & Barbie is a YouTube short about the two girls having fun when Brooklyn came to visit Barbie at her town. They put on a concert at the pier, and are singing so close I thought honestly they were going to kiss. Barbie's friends Teresa and Daisy were a bit jealous of Brooklyn at first but they soon learned that Barbie didn't mean to exclude them, and that they were her oldest friends, but Brooklyn is still very special to her.

It Takes Two
The whole TV Show was built around Barbie's relationship with her new friend. It is the same format of Dreamhouse Adventures, but centered around Brooklyn.
