Claudia actually playing on one of the teams -- awesome.

:D This seems to be a popular thing. Glad you enjoyed the story!

This reads just like an actual episode. I can hear them, see the scenes, hear the voice-over, it's FANTASTIC.

I admit I'm not as caught up on W13 except to know Myka and Claudia, but it wasn't necessary - the HIMYM definitely carried the fic for me.

I swear I think about this group learning government secrets all the time and none of them taking it seriously enough to ever cause trouble.

(HIMYM is one of those fandoms that I think can be crossed with almost any other and make it both believeable and as comedic as HIMYM is supposed to be. You're merely adding meat to my argument lol!)

Mission accomplished! Writing HIMYM stories so that they sound like an episode is both fun and difficult, so I'm glad it worked out!

HIMYM is definitely one of those fandoms that lends itself to be crossed over with crazy fandoms, because it's all a story and the crazy things that happen, where anything can and does happen. I'm happy that you were able to follow the story despite not being up on Warehouse 13 canon. Glad you enjoyed and thanks for the comment!

Oh man, Claudia + roller derby = love. Nice Lily & Robin friendship, too. :D

The roller derby was a last minute plotting decision, so I'm happy to see that you enjoyed it! And the Robin and Lily friendship is probably one of my favorite dynamics in HIMYM, so it was fun to include that. Glad you liked the story and thanks for the comment!

So good! Ted's VOs were perfect! Claudia + roller derby for the win!

kerrykhat December 8 2011, 02:20:42 UTC

:D Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the story!

What a fun fic! I love the way you brought the two fandoms together (Claudia/roller derby made me squee) and that ending was tantalizing. Wonderful work!

I'm actually a little surprised by how popular roller derby + Claudia seems to be, but it's nice to see that it's something that people like. As for that ending... Who knows what the future may bring? ;)

Glad you enjoyed the fic, and thanks for the comment!

I think the internet needs a Warehouse 13/Whip It crossover.

Anyway, I liked it. Roller-derby Claudia was indeed awesome, and it's fun looking at how insane and inexplicable an Artifact retrieval must be from the POV of the random bystanders. Plus, I really enjoy the "Kids, I wasn't there, but your aunt/uncle swears [the following completely implausible scenario] is exactly how it happened," gag on HIMYM, and was pleased to see it here.
