HIMYM RP of epicness continues
So far on HIMYM the Soap Opera, Barney's out in California, being depressed about Robin and James, while Lily and Ted are trying to figure out what the hell's going on.
10:35pmLily
Hey.
11:03pmRobin
hey! still there?
11:04pmLily
Yeah, I'm here.
How's it going?
11:04pmRobin
hey! it's good. chillin on the beach, can you believe it?
how are you?
11:05pmLily
I'm OK. Jealous. :P
11:05pmRobin
haha yeah. :) But... I'll be back tomorrow
Is Facebook being totally screwy?
11:06pmLily
Not really. Why?
(Looking forward to it. MacLaren's is less fun without you guys.)
11:06pmRobin
it was being so bizarre. I tried to post on Barney's wall (seriously, I think he needs sleep. he's seeing parrots everywhere) and it ended up posting my current status?! or just deleting the message I typed altogether
i know! I mean, LA is nice, but I'm missing that New York feel
11:07pmLily
Yeah, Ted said something about him being sleep-deprived and screwy.
What's going on, anyway?
11:07pmRobin
With Barney, you mean?
11:08pmLily
Yeah. I mean, I get that you and him had a fight or something, and then there's GNB, and something about James.
11:08pmRobin
Oh man.
I don't even know, Lily.
Barney's just...
I don't know. Himself.
He hasn't slept in about 72 hours,
and then James and Tom had this huge fight and he totally blamed himself
and then he and I sort of got into a fight
and then
suddenly he was Awesome!Barney again acting like everything was fine
and being his usually self
hitting on maids at the hotel
going to meetings with some Korean businesswoman here in LA
it's like watching a train wreck.
11:10pmLily
Oh, God.
11:10pmRobin
I'm trying to be there for him and get him to relax.
but i don't know if i'm doing any good.
have you seen him like this before?
11:11pmLily
Not really. Sort of.
Not this bad.
11:11pmRobin
it feels like... everything's moving too fast or something.
11:12pmLily
Yeah, so much has happened.
11:13pmRobin
Maybe when we're back Ted and Marshall can talk some sense into him.
BRB
11:13pmLily
OK.
11:18pmRobin
back, sorry
11:18pmLily
It's OK.
11:19pmLily
Are you OK? I mean, being in the middle of all of that.
11:20pmRobin
Yeah. I think so. Things have been about 10% tense with Barney (after our argument), 90% good. He's just worried about James. And I'm liking being out here. We've had some fun
Speaking of James
He is pretty great, yeah?
11:20pm
Robin wrote on Barney Stinson's wall.
11:22pmLily
Yeah, James is nice.
11:23pmRobin
maybe he and tom will move to NY for sam's schooling
11:24pmLily
Yeah, Barney asked me for a list of good preschools in Manhattan the other day.
11:24pmRobin
haha... he going to make some calls?
11:25pmLily
Possibly.
It seems like a big move, though, especially if they're having problems.
11:25pmRobin
Yeah. I think things are pretty tense. At least Tom finally came home today though.
11:26pmLily
Wow, he left?
11:26pmRobin
I guess they had a fight yesterday and Tom walked out to cool off.
11:27pmLily
Oh, wow.
11:27pmRobin
I haven't really talked to them about it... I just saw James's status.
11:28pmLily
Oh, yeah.
11:28pm
Robin wrote on Ranjit Singh's wall.
11:29pmRobin
I forgot to ask
so i marshall having to deal with this GNB meltdown?
11:31pm
Robin wrote on Barney Stinson's wall.
11:31pmLily
Yeah, he's been working a lot, but I think it's starting to cool down a little.
11:31pmRobin
cool
11:37pm
Robin wrote on Ranjit Singh's wall.
11:49pmLily
Are you with Barney right now?
11:49pmRobin
yeah. Crap, Lil, I think he took something bad. Should I take him to the hospital?
11:50pmLily
Might be a good idea. But what if he gets into trouble?
11:50pmRobin
Okay... I think we're at different beaches. he's texting me. Oh god, James is going to kill me.
11:51pmLily
It's going to be OK, just try and get to him, all right?
11:51pmRobin
I will.
And here's the chat with Ted. OK, so there was actually this long section where Ted and Lily were talking about Barney, and how he refuses to open up to them (all the while, Lily's feeling a little guilty, because Barney has opened up to her, but she doesn't know that Ted knows that Barney has feelings for Robin, and so didn't say anything), and why Barney can open up to James and not to Ted, but Facebook didn't save it. Anyway, we got onto the subject of Victoria, and that's where we pick up. The earlier part of this conversation is in the comments.
Ted
But at least you've gotten over that now. Right?
11:23pmLily
Are you going to see Victoria again?
Yeah, I guess.
11:24pmTed
Yeah, we're planning to get coffee or drinks sometime later this week.
You know. Whatever.
11:25pmLily
Good. (Hopefully she isn't going to try and kill you.) :P
11:26pmTed
Yeah, hopefully she doesn't make like, cyanide cupcakes or something...
Nah, she seemed totally cool when I was messaging her.
11:26pmLily
That's good.
11:47pmTed
I'm chatting with [Barney] right now and he's STILL going on about parrots.
11:47pmLily
Oh, man.
11:47pmTed
and I'm not sure, but he may have taken ecstasy from some kid at the hotel.
11:47pmLily
What?
11:47pmTed
something. he wouldn't say what it was.
I don't think he knows what it is.
11:48pmLily
Oh, man.
Is he alone?
11:48pmTed
Um, I'm not sure. I think Robin's with him.
11:49pmLily
I'll ask her -- I'm talking to her, too.
This is so messed up.
11:50pmTed
I know. I'm trying to play along to get info out of him.
11:50pmLily
OK. Robin's thinking about taking him to the hospital. I think he might've taken alcohol with it?
Crap crap CRAP.
11:51pmTed
He sounds really depressed! He just said "THe Barnacle rides alone" all depressed-like
11:52pmLily
Oh, man.
I wish I had some way of contacting James.
I don't know what Robin's going to be able to do for him.
11:53pmTed
Is he online?
11:53pmLily
No, he's not.
11:54pmLily
And Barney's gone offline.
11:55pmTed
I'm still chatting with him.
11:55pmLily
OK.
11:58pmTed
I'm trying to talk him down... I think it's working a little?
11:59pmLily
Should I try talking to him? I mean, I don't want to overwhelm him, and last time I tried he seemed kind of... I dunno.
11:59pmTed
It can't hurt... he's at the beach and seems to be relaxing right now, but I'm afraid that something I say might make it worse
Today
12:00amLily
Yeah, I know the feeling.
12:11amLily
And now he's telling me we'll "talk later".
12:11amTed
He seems okay talking to me... does he seem better to you at all?
maybe Robin showed up
12:11amLily
Not really.
12:11amTed
Crap.
12:11amLily
Yeah, Robin's there.
12:12amTed
I tried to distract him by telling him about that girl Kelly from last night, but I don't think that helped much.
12:12amLily
Not sure how much good she'll do.
12:12amTed
We got kind of sappy for a moment anyway.
Yeah, I'm not sure either.
12:12amLily
I just humored him.
12:13amLily
But he just sort of told me I should come paint the parrots, and how Robin was in a bikini, and then he blocked me out again.
12:13amTed
He kept telling me the parrots were begging for dirty details about boobs and stuff.
Sigh.
12:14amLily
I wonder if Robin's really going to take him to the hospital.
At the very least, he needs rest.
12:15amTed
I hope so. I think he needs to.
Yeah, a sedative or something?
12:15amLily
Maybe.
Hopefully it's not as serious as that.
12:18amTed
I think I convinced him to go with Robin to the hospital!
Using the "guys who get in fights" angle.
12:18amLily
OK, good.
12:18amTed
Sometimes it helps to get on his level. =)
12:18amLily
Well, whatever works.
12:18amTed
Yep.
12:19amLily
Poor Robin, having to deal with this.
12:19amTed
I know! She must be so stressed out.
If he's going to stay at the hospital for a while, maybe we SHOULD go to LA? i don't know...
12:22amLily
If you think you should.
12:23amTed
I don't know. I'm talking to Robin, I'll see what she needs me to do.
So, yeah. Basically, it's kind of going nuts. Remember how we just started this to get some guy off of secondmezzanine's back? :P
10:35pmLily
Hey.
11:03pmRobin
hey! still there?
11:04pmLily
Yeah, I'm here.
How's it going?
11:04pmRobin
hey! it's good. chillin on the beach, can you believe it?
how are you?
11:05pmLily
I'm OK. Jealous. :P
11:05pmRobin
