This is a great start, this idea could easily evolve. :)

That was totally hilarious and sweet. Thank you for this one-shot of awesomeness. 3

Oh my gosh...I mean...I can't...I can't even comprehend what just happened. Dying. Hilarious. Omg Barney why yet at the same time SO him. LOL dead. great job bro, great job

That was so cool and weird and awesome

My absolute favorite himym fic! So in character for Barney :)

I could never picture Barney being gay but for him to be one for the sake of his obsessive self-acclaimation, yes, I could. Lol! I died!

My first review for How I Met Your Mother fic ;)

Everyone was so in character! I love it! Barney was being Barney... Him and his crazy plans XD LOL. I love it! Marshall calling Lil in the end was so funny. You should write a sequel!

Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please write a sequel!

Nice plan Barney nice plan.

I thought this was really, really cute. You did an amazing job with Barney's dialog. I could totally picture him saying those things to Ted and Marshall. You did a great job capturing Barney's personality. Please write more?

I got to the end and cackled a little. Just a little. Oh Marshall. Oh Barney.

I love this, i could see barney doing this D

The best part is, that I can actually see this happening on the show.. well, not the Barney decided to be monogmous part, but the Barney decides to marry Ted to make him his BFF over Marshall thing I can see the writers doing.

Your blackmail worked . I imagined the authorbeast staring at me with its big soulful eyes, willing me silently to give it just the tiniest bit of nutrition. I'm writing this comment eons after the story was written, however. Does that make the comment stale? Or too little too late? I don't care. It's 3 am. I was sad. I read your beautiful story, and it made me laugh. Repeatedly. Out loud. I may have woken someone up. Anyway. I must compliment you for making everybody pretty in character. Also- This is how the series should end. Really. At the end we find out "mother" is metaphorical. Or something like that. Anyway you are a lovely author who I have been stalking today (shassie and a ouran high/iron man crossover? I think I love you.) and I just might follow you. Yep. That's it. I'm doing it. You can't stop me.
Sorry this review wasn't more... Helpful. goodnight.

I really like this and can totally see Barney doing something like this in order to be proclaimed Ted's Best Friend Forever!
