Maybe it'll be Ted. He saw Barney with the rose petals. He saw the extent of how upset Robin was. Plus, voiceover Ted did have that line earlier this season about the three of them not being healthy and they just hadn't realized it yet.
I am okay with Barney's reaction because it was totally hypothetical. He said it himself, 'Look how cute the babies are now that we're not having one!' I just hope and pray that him being open to kids is not going to be some bullshit roadblock to them being together. They already went down that road with Ted and Robin (really well, btw!); we don't need a rehash.
I'm not sure why they were so concerned with this ep. I thought it was great. But the way they talk about the direction of this season concerns me. I cannot imagine being invested in Barney MARRYING someone who wasn't Robin. We've already had this conversation, but he has gone through some massive growth and we actually got to see him fall for Robin - whether they intended to or not, they've made him (and brotp) the...I don't know how to describe it. Not the focal point. Or heart. But we CARE about the two of them. We watched them become friends, then flail around each other, then break each other's hearts and then see them grow back together. Barney had a 'Robin is my soulmate' moment a couple eps ago. Tonight, Robin imagined HAVING KIDS with Barney.
And now that I have worked myself into quite a state, I will stop. But yes - they MUST end up together.
Re: HG. I think Kate said it best when she said that Katniss's emotions shine through when she's not on guard. It's just that she's always on guard. *g*
I love it because they do eventually get it together, but oh, yeah, I get so frustrated with her. Like. She loves him. But whenever she realizes it, she tries to shut it down because a) she's told herself she'll never love anyone like that and b) if she was going to love someone like that - surely it would be Gale, right?
