Balloofenshmirtz is the cargo ship between Heinz Doofenshmirtz and Balloony from the Phineas and Ferb fandom.
Canon[]
In "The Chronicles of Meap", Doofenshmirtz told Perry his tragic backstory about Balloony. Back when he was a young little boy in Gimmelschtump, he got a balloon, drew a face on it, sprayed it with lifelong-lasting spray. Little Doofenshmirtz took his treasured pal Balloony with him wherever he went. One fateful day, however, while Doofenshmirtz was guarding the garden as a garden gnome, a gust of wind came by and blew Balloony away. Doofenshmirtz wanted to reach out and grab him but he was told not to move so all he could do was watch Balloony fly away forever. As an adult, Doofenshmirtz vowed to bring Balloony back with a sock costume, that would attract all of the balloons in the entire tri-state area, using static electricity. He gets a bunch of balloons stuck to him, none of which are Balloony and he then gets carried up into the skies, where he breaks free and lands on an alien spaceship, which just so happens to have Balloony in it. Big Mitch now owns Balloony and claims that this balloon is his now and he renamed it "Colin". The two of them argue over who gets the balloon and they eventually decide to settle it by having Balloony decide. Doofenshmirtz walks off, hoping Balloony will follow him but his static electiricity has now worn off, meaning that Balloony stays with Big Mitch, signifying that he has chosen him over Doofenshmirtz. Doofenshmirtz is upset and says that this is fine since he doesn't even need a balloon anymore.
Despite brushing off Balloony no longer relevant in his life, Doofenshmirtz is still overjoyed to see him in "Meapless in Seattle", when he ends up back on Big Mitch's ship again. Balloony is now wearing a robotic space suit that can help him with fighting. Doofenshmirtz tries to reunite with Balloony again but due to the warfare and Balloony now being his enemy, he has no time to talk. Shortly afterward, Balloony is shot with a laser and popped, leaving Doofenshmirtz heartbroken and mortified. At the end of the episode, Perry reassembles Balloony with helium and a bandage and gives him to Doofenshmirtz as a way of saying thanks for helping him fight Big Mitch. Doofenshmirtz and Balloony have tons of fun together, now being happy to be reunited.
Fanon[]
Balloofenshmirtz is kind of a joke ship in the fandom but it still has a big following, even if it is ironic. The connection between Doofenshmirtz and Balloony has been kind of nice, given just how much they get along in the show. Balloony is also kind of a gift that brings the goodness out on Doofenshmirtz's heart and makes him act much nicer. Some fans believe that canonicity of Balloofenshmirtz could be an excellent segue into the resurgence of the Do-Gooder Doof arc from Milo Murphy.
On AO3, there are currently 2 written works.
