(no subject)
So now that I'm a little more coherent with my HIMYM thoughts:
So, they blew apart my theory that a.) Robin has had feelings (and acknowledged them to herself) since Shelter Island and b.) that she's known about Barney's feelings since shortly after Benefits. HOWEVER:
I loved the way they handled the talk they had in the hospital. It felt like something I'd read in a BroTP fic, which is a good thing, especially considering the beautiful writers we have in this fandom.
Maybe I don't want to be saved the trouble. Maybe I want the trouble. I haven't wanted the trouble in a long time, but with you, the trouble doesn't seem so... troubling.
GWAHHHH! Yikes, I'm heading into incoherency again. Hee!
Anyways, that scene was just beautiful, even if I was still a bit confused about Robin by the end of it (but I think that was the point!) But just seeing Barney be so honest, and admitting that he wants some sort of relationship with her is just... phenomenal. Love!
And oh, that look when they leaped across the building!! So perfect.
Other highlights:
I think that Season 5 is going to be what a lot of us have been wanting this whole season: Robin's side of the story. She's going to fall for Barney, but they're not going to be together yet (flirty, probably, but not together) and she's not going to want to tell him. So EVEN MORE TENSION and then they get together for real and the end of S5.
Bet in the season premiere she calls up Marshall to tell him that she has feelings for Barney. LOLOLOL.
And now people will STFU about Robin being the mother, because why the fuck would she be taking an architecture class at Columbia?? (Oh, who am I kidding, those batshit fans will find a way around it.)

Other highlights:
- Missy!
- Buy the suit, Barney!
- Head-explodey noises
- MURDER TRAIN.
- SVEN. (I called it right when the guys started breaking up with him)
- Mosbying. HEE!
- And damn it if it wasn't the best year of my life
