aawh teasing barney, that's evil XD

Aw, she doesn't mean to be. But it's what Robin said to Ted - she tends to backslide and go for the obvious ex-sex when she's been dumped. And it's not like she's not hesitent. But Barney sees through her and is a little stronger than he used to be.

:-)

That's true...good ol' barndoor can resist some robin when he wants to...he'll just have to deal with the consequences of his own body later though I'm sure XD

Stop giving me plot bunnies, damn you! ;-)

Yay! I just read it. I like your self-aware Barney, I wish he was more like that in the show. Ack!

I'm going to link to your story from mine. I also posted it on ffnet and I'll link back here. =)

idioticonion September 22 2010, 14:12:55 UTC

Thank you! I'll do a ffnet post myself too.

Btdubs - I love your owl icon!

aperfectsong September 22 2010, 22:00:25 UTC

Ok, linked to yours from mine! =D

Strangely enough, after I got this owl icon, I went to the salvation army and found a very similar-looking owl that I just had to buy! Haha. Owls just have something cool about them that I can't get over.

idioticonion September 23 2010, 18:51:04 UTC

I used to collect owls when I was younger. And I had one that looked a little like that. Which I think is why your icon appealed to me so much. Bless the little owl! Twit-twoo!

Awww, I loved this!

idioticonion September 22 2010, 14:31:21 UTC

Thank you! BROtp forever!

moondustwolf September 22 2010, 15:27:44 UTC

Aw, Barney. You're doomed. You're both doomed. And I love it.

idioticonion September 22 2010, 15:38:35 UTC

Thank you for the inspiration to write it! And yes, they probably are doomed. But that's why I love them.

This was fabulous. Love the way you got into Barney's head here. :)

idioticonion September 22 2010, 16:30:54 UTC

Thank you! It was nice to get some BROtp again that I can build on. I love how enthused everyone is by episode 1.
