Gritting his teeth, Barney let out a frustrated breath, "I'm sorry, I can't do this."

He hated himself. What the fuck was he doing? This was the sixth Ted look-alike he let pick him up this week. They weren't Ted. They couldn't be him. They couldn't take his place. Barney knew that. He thought about getting out of this bar and running ( Read more... )

You wrote this story beautifully. Honestly, everyone was so in character. I felt draw in and like this actually was Barney and Ted. I think you captured their characters very accurately but you also delved far past just the surface area. I think that's so hard to do when writing a story for a TV show because you don't get to crawl inside the characters brain and share the mental intimacy with them that you would in a book. Your story had so much substance to it that I found myself completely swept away.
Plus, your writing style is brilliant. It's so unique but allows for a lot of flow. And the phrasing is absolutely beautiful. You definitely have a way with words and I really look forward to reading more of your stories.
Thank you so much for writing this story and sharing it with us.
