Fic - I'd Be Rich

Mar 19, 2009 21:46

It wasn’t long after her split (could you call it a break up if there had been no relationship?) with Ted when Robin discovered twenty boxes of Kraft dinner in her cupboard.

“Ted?”

“Yeah?”

“Why did you buy all of this?”

“I didn’t. Anyway, I thought Canadians liked Kraft dinners.”

She threw a box at his head.

Both Ted and Lily gave him their stupid meaningful looks. He ignored them.
I love you for this line!!

and

“Figures I’d be stalked by an environmentalist.” This one...

YAY I AM MADE OF AWESOME.

I'm so glad that you enjoyed this so much! I had a lot of fun writing it.

This is adorable in every possible way!

Great use of the song :)

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!

And, yeah, this is kind of my love letter to Barenaked Ladies. Good to know that it worked, though. :D

Awww, this is super cute.

Thank you!

This is great. And I can say so here without hating you for your team affiliations or anything.

;-)

*sigh* Le romance.

otempora42 March 19 2009, 22:46:26 UTC

Haha. Screw team affiliations. I can force you to like my things.

I think... I'm not sure, but I think... that this is my first fic where I've properly gotten Barney and Robin together. All of my others have either been UST or established relationship. I'll have to double-check to make sure, though.

idioticonion March 19 2009, 22:52:08 UTC

What's UST? unidentified... string... theory?

otempora42 March 19 2009, 22:54:47 UTC

Unresolved sexual tension. Basically, where the attraction's there, but the characters haven't addressed it yet. Think Mal and Inara. Hell, think just about everyone on Joss Whedon's shows (although especially Firefly).

But, yeah, just checked. Definitely my only get-together fic. Unless you count that one drabblethon piece I did.

OH I LOVE YOU.

barney is such an ADORABLE STALKER and robin is AWESOME and, you know, I LOVE YOU. A LOT.

otempora42 March 20 2009, 09:38:24 UTC

Thank you so much!

Yeah, Barney's kind of a creeper. But a cute, romantic creeper, so we let it slide.

I love you, too. :D I'm so glad I corrupted you into watching HIMYM.
