Aw, this is awesome! And now I'm imagining Barney meeting Castle before he falls for Robin and them being Bros...

Oh, Castle and Barney being bros would be awesome! I'd tell you to write it, but honestly I want to see Merlin Power Rangers way more.

I liked this! Castle and Barney are so similar that of course they'd clash. =) And I liked the bit about how Castle was analyzing Barney like he was one of his characters, because that's one of my favorite parts about his character. Though when I was reading this, I kept picturing Dr. Horrible and Capt. Hammer in my head...

And this reminds me, I've still got to see episode two of Castle.

"And I liked the bit about how Castle was analyzing Barney like he was one of his characters, because that's one of my favorite parts about his character."

Yeah, that was pretty much the basis of this piece. It was originally going to be more in-depth, but whatever.

"Though when I was reading this, I kept picturing Dr. Horrible and Capt. Hammer in my head..."

Then my work here is done. :P Another fun fact: there were originally going to be way more DH references, but they didn't work out. I did manage to insert one pretty obvious one, though.

"And this reminds me, I've still got to see episode two of Castle."

Do it. It's really good.

I think I just got it... when Castle tells Barney "Head up, buddy," right? Can't believe I missed that the first time around!

And I just finished watching it. It was really good! I think I feel my own crossover coming on now...

Yay! You win... things.

Oh, man. One of your cracktastic crossovers, hopefully?

You did it! You really DID it!? I should be angry and jealous because this is so much win and you've saved me half the job.

But no... this isn''t the obvoius crossover. Oh no.

Someone's going to get there before me, I know it.

But if they don't, I might write the idea as a follow-on from yours. It would totally work.

If you don't mind.

Yay for being awesome and win and saving you work!

"But if they don't, I might write the idea as a follow-on from yours. It would totally work. If you don't mind."

Go ahead! I'd be honored if you riffed on me. :D

Okay! Will do.

One thing - were you planning on a sequel yourself?

Not really -- I have a few very vague ideas, but if you have something in mind, I'd love to see it.

Yeah, that was pretty much the point. :P My friends and I noticed a while back how many blond jerks there are in romantic comedies and such, and since Barney's not your usual protaganist, I thought I'd play with Castle's genre expectations. :D

Glad you enjoyed it!

This is totally cool.

You wove the fandoms together quite well.

Barney didn’t read much in the way of fiction - he’d read the Harry Potter books (it was amazing how many chicks loved that damn kid. Of course, he’d sided with Voldemort. All he was trying to do was get his power back, and some whiny teenage kid had ruined it for him), and there’d been one or two novels about lesbians (huge disappointments. They were all about discovering womanhood and not about, say, hot girls licking each other. Waste. Of. Paper).

*snerk* I think this was my favorite part.

*hands over the bison dollars*

Totally worth it. Although I claim full credit for the bit about lesbians.
