Awwwwwwwww! This is SO SWEET! I think what I love the most about it is that Robin's right, Barney IS being all twitchy and weird right now and she DOES need to call him on it and find a way to get him back on the Barney train.

Plus, you know, cool "blind/light switch" voice control...

Heehee, thanks! I like to think that the Barney we see now, is confused and can't decide if he's the old Peace&Love!Barney or the awesome SuitedUp!Barney. I think gradually he'll become a combination of them both: still awesome and bro-ing out guy, who's got a slightly softer, more romantic side. Whether or not Robin will be into that is still to be seen.

Oh, totally! I actually got the idea from an episode of Skins, but yeah... Barney seems like the guy who has all the coolest, newest gadgets and loves to show them off. Haha.

Yes, that's definitely insightful. There's definitely a romantic side to him, a very *sweet* side. And I'm not sure if that appeals to Robin or not! I just don't know. I guess we'll see in the last few episodes, this season?

I sure hope we get to see more of Robin's thought's about Barney's recent attitude/actions/weirdness. I'm looking forward to more Robin-centric episodes!

Thanks! :) Sometimes I'm so lazy, I wish I had voice-controlled blinds and lights.

>“Allofthem,” he blurted out without thinking and noted how she went tense under his hands. He let out a nervous laugh and was greeted by a long awkward silence as she thought about what he was suggesting.

wow that was perfect, just awesomely perfectly sweet

You MUST finish all those unfinished and unposted fics. please?

neonbliss February 12 2009, 20:46:23 UTC

Aww, thank you! :D

Ahh, I know, I know. I have this giant folder on my desktop of unfinished fics I need to tackle. One day...

“Be gross and politically incorrect and awesome again.”

Yeah that's so Robin ;)
Loved it! Of course he'll have voice-activated blinds and lights!

neonbliss February 12 2009, 20:52:27 UTC

Haha, yay, thanks! :)

Sometimes I think Robin's the only one who really appreciates ALL of his awesomeness. The rest of the gang laughs at his jokes, but usually they kinda brush him off or roll their eyes. The fact that Robin went bro-ing around with him and put up with his insane plots means it must be true love. ;) Haha.

I just love this story!

Who doesn't like stars that glow in the dark :)

And "guess who..." lol!

neonbliss February 20 2009, 23:48:06 UTC

Wow, thank you! :D

I love Barney's "guess who" thing. I want him to say it again on the show as a joke and for Robin to love it.
