abuseTHis is one of my favorites. So many great lines!

-Ted should not taint the sacred walls of laser tag.
-Robin rolls her eyes but laughs with him anyway, because it’s Barney and she’s Robin and they aren’t ever, ever—ever—going to be BarneyandRobin but she sort of likes Barney-and-Robin. As long as there are dashes.
-She can just picture Lily’s face now, translating “Yeah, so, there have to be these dashes, see…” into “Um, yeah, so, Barney and I are soulmates.”
-He runs back to meet her, face close, noses almost touching (because seriously, with the flashing lights and loud music it’s impossible to hear otherwise). “I don’t regret having sex with you either.”
-“You’re hot,”/“What?”

You've got a great sense of Robin's "voice" and the style of dialogue in the show. Robin and Barney's characterization is practically pitch-perfect. The little line about Lily reading too much into it is also in-character for her.

Great fic, and I hope you write more!

abuseWow, this is gorgeous. I love that Robin figures out her feelings during a game of *laser tag*, and how you describe it.

"She doesn’t want to get married and have 2.5 children and be like Lily and Marshal, telling each other every little detail about everything—and she means everything—that happens during the day. She wants… she wants someone to just… hang out with, and watch stupid movies with, and… and…"

This moment, right here, was just perfect. You trace her thought process so well, and for me (I can't really see Robin acknowledging her side to the 'ship, not easily) it is the best, most in-canon way for Robin to realize she's in love with Barney.

Great job.

abuseThis made me smile. And the writers need to realize that Barney (in all his laser tag and battleship glory) complements Robin in almost every way. aka They need to read this fic. =]

abuseAmazing. You have Barney's voice down incredibly well ("All systems are bro"...perfection) and I love the distinction between BarneyandRobin and Barney-and-Robin. I'm convinced their just in denial, and they really do love each other. This was perfect, and exactly what I needed between them when the show didn't give it to me first.

abuseI adore this story! I just love Barney, and you've completely nailed his tone and voice. This scene could easily fit into any episode!
