Who: Barney and River
What: Barney had been thinkin', and drinkin', and River saves his pathetic ass.
Where: The streets, then the Hotel.
When: A few nites ago? Don't remember exact date.
River had never been to Toronto, but she'd seen the pictures and it truly did look lovely. Just not for tonight. The only place she would be taking Barney was to his room and tucking him into bed. "That does sound like an adventure." Her tone only a little bit admonishing, River led him to the elevator.
"I'll be sure to accompany you. Promise. And will likely defeat you at laser tag -- again."
"I've heard that voice before. You're humouring me." He looked at her, eyes narrowing in playful suspicion. But he was still swinging hands and amicable walking. Because he might have been humoured by the young woman, but that didn't mean that they weren't going to do exactly what he wanted.
So he thought, anyway. As it was, however, they were in the elevator. "You think I'm being stupid?" He thought he was being stupid. Stupid for doing the caring thing. Why should Barney care? Number One hadn't let him down yet. The grin faded slightly, eyes narrowing again though this time in thought. "Huh."
