OMG, thank you for responding to my prompt and writing this! I'm glad this turned into more than a drabble :)

So many levels of AWESOME. Saget!Ted, Barney being nervous and clueless judges!

No problemo! I read the prompt and the rest just wrote itself =P

Thanks!

HAHAHAHA. Oh my god I LOVED this. I laughed out loud several times. Even the little throw away lines were great. For example:

“Yeah, and you can’t just expect me to come up with a game that quickly,” Marshall agreed.

and

“Other door,” the judges shouted to him.

You are so my hero for writing this. :D

Oh yay! It was supposed to make you laugh! =D

Thanks so much!!!

lol!

This was amazing :) I love the idea of Barney singing Robin Sparkles as an American Idol audition. Although I really don't think he should have been cut. Take that shit to the top, baby :)

“Twister?”

“And be felt up the whole night by you? No thanks.”

Is it bad that my thoughts went instantly to Lily? Especially after the boob smash he gave her in "The Limo"?

Haha, yeah, well, it was the prompt. I personally think Barney coulda sang the crap out of that song, but it's like da_phoenix said, he didn't make it cause it's Canadian ;)

>>Is it bad that my thoughts went instantly to Lily?<<
LOL, no. Is it bad that when I wrote that I imagined it to be Marshall or Ted saying it? =P

[snogged]

*gigglesnort* Nope. Not at all :)

"Um, Robin Sparkles?” Barney answered. “She’s Canadian"

That line made me literally laugh out loud. I can totally hear Barney say it.

And, after this, I realized not enough of himym fanfiction has future Ted. It's nice to see.
