"Oh my God," Marshall says, awed. "This is just like getting a Hogwarts letter."

Oh man, I love this fic ridiculously much. It's just so funny and so right and god, there is just nothing that I love more than an Office/HIMYM crossover. It is pretty much a crime that Karen and Robin are not on a show together to be awesome hilarious bffs just like this. And I adore your Barney and Robin development. It's so funny and casual and natural, and I love your take on their voices and their interplay. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you! I realized when I was writing it that Robin and Karen are the same kind of awesome. And Ted is kind of like Jim, except (in my opinion) way more awesome and sincere and less of an asshole. Also he doesn't work at Scranton, which is a plus in any book.

Oh God, I'm dying from all the CUTENESS! This is so so sweet and absolutely hilarious!

Also: CARL!!!!!!! I LOVE CARL! He should be in more fics, there's never enough Carl love.

In conclusion: I love this and you are brilliant.

Thanks! Carl is great. One day when I'm a billionaire, I will open a bar named MacLaren's and hire a Carl to run it. That will be his only qualification. I can't see where it could go wrong.

Oh my god, this was so good. I was laughing out loud the whole way through. And I always adored Karen and I could so see her dating Ted and being BFFs with Robin. I also loved how Barney and Robin ended up together - it just felt so natural and right.

Thank you! Karen is lovely, isn't she?

Oooh, I liked this. It's funny because it doesn't even really feel like a crossover. They meld together well. And I have never been someone who hated Karen, so I like seeing her side of things. I feel like she'd fit with the gang well. So kudos there.

This was a nice little story. It is interesting to think what another person in the group would do to the dynamic. Hmmm..

Also, Truth or Dare Jenga! It's gonna be a thing.

Dude, Truth or Dare Jenga is a thing! I own a set and it is awesome!

Re: thread-hijacking to say solojones July 31 2009, 19:13:25 UTC

It just needs to become a thing in the HIMYM universe. Mostly because I want to claim ownership of "a thing" :p

But yeah, I really want to actually play this game.

Oh, like something in fanon? I get what you mean.

There are so many TINY little details in this that are so perfectly spot on. and I think I noticed a bunch of little references too - such as the "I remember it differently" quote from Dr Horrible.

You are simply a genius. I don't watch The Office but it didn't spoil my enjoyment of this fic one tiny bit.

pyreneeees July 31 2009, 19:53:29 UTC

Thank you! Dr. Horrible <3.

You should watch The Office! Just ... stop after the 3rd season and pretend that you never knew the show continued. It'll be better that way.

I'm a fan of the UK original so I just could never get my head into the right space to watch it! One day, maybe. But it's not on TV over here so I'd have to download it.
