Barney Stinson

[See Barney. He's hanging around the pokemon center like usual. Not a whole lot to do today, just helping out, hoping to get of Violet soon since the Nurse Joy's been making obvious girlfriend-y like advances and that's not a good thing. Idly he checks the pokegear, and almost drops it in surprise]

Whoa! Whoa whoa whoa! It's Thanksgiving? Already? No, I can't believe I'm missing one of my favorite holidays right now, with the parade and the meal and everything. This is so not awesome. I mean, I don't think they even have Thanksgiving in this place, much less a decent Turkey. This sucks.

[He sulks for a bit, ruminating about Thanksgivings gone by. You might see his hand go up to rub his cheek, phantom pain perhaps? That's right, last Thanksgiving wasn't that great either, now that he thinks about it. Marshall's not here. He's not gonna get slapped. Maybe this won't be so bad after all]

Actually, forget that last part, this Thanksgiving's gonna be a good one. I'm actually thankful that my friends aren't here right now. Looks like Slapsgiving's not happening this year and it's Legen - wait for it - dary!

So, what are you guys thankful for? 

Oh, and Donald, are you still selling those autographs? I want one.

[ooc: so a bit earlier than expected but whatever. What I said still stands, tags will probably be gotten to by the 26th at the latest, but I might tag sparingly tomorrow given how well my other assignments are going. Still on hiatus for the most part, sorry.]

[So, you probably didn't see much of  Barney the week. That was due to the fact that he to was hit by the event as well, and hasn't been doing very well since, not necessarily psychologically, but physically. Hallucinations did happen, and he was visited by a very haunting melody from his past that shall not be talked about, and basically, Ted and Robin getting back together, and then them and Marshall and Lily leaving him alone forever. He was in a stupor and so Ted the Totodile figured that the best way to wake Barney up was multiple water guns to the face. On a cold foggy night. Although he won't admit it, Barney is sick. One of those nasty colds that won't go away.

However, he was found by the authorities and taken to the pokecenter in Violet where he is being well cared for by a Nurse Joy. The Video shows him lying in his bed at the pokemon center, looking rather pathetic, since he is trying to milk this for all it's worth. Even though he won't admit to that. When he speaks, he even sounds sick. Seriously, read this imagining the most pathetic stuffed up sounding voice you can imagine.]

Just to let everyone know, I'm alright. I got caught in that fog last week, and well, stuff happened. *sniff* I'm not sick though.

When I get sick, I stop being sick and be awesome instead. *sniff* True story. *coughing fit* *sniiiiiiffff*

Oh god, this sucks.

[He pauses and then holds up a pokeball]

I think I might have caught a pokemon but I'm not sure which one.  Anyone want to take bets on what's in here?

*cough cough sniff groan cough sniff*
