#otp: i'm hopelessly irretrievably in love with her

[faesfairies]

list of my favourite otps → [11/∞] barney stinson & robin scherbatsky

I love everything about her, and I'm not a guy who says that lightly. I am a guy who has faked love his entire life. I thought love was just something idiots thought they felt, but this woman has a hold on my heart that I could not break if I wanted too. And there have been times that I wanted to. It has been overwhelming, and humbling, and even painful, at times. But I could not stop loving her any more than I could stop breathing. I am hopelessly, irretrievably in love with her. More than she knows.

list of my non-endgame otps:

1.- Steven Hyde and Jackie Burkhart.

No other couple that wasn't endgame had left like this (maybe dair) but gosssh, these two, THESE TWO, they started off as one of my favorite couple tropes: enemies to friends to lovers, and it was done perfectly, every part of it, Hyde went from not even wanting her to be in the basement to let her sleep in his small space in the latter because she had no other place to go, Jackie said she liked Hyde for the way he made her see things, and if y'all know this girl you know that's the most precious thing ever. Long story short, they are endgame in every other universe but this, sadly.

2.- Dan Humphrey and Blair Waldorf.

*sighs* these two... if you hear closely you can literally hear me crying. Let me say it: SOULMATES, THE EPITOME OF SOULMATES, Dan and Blair are the most fitted couple to ever grace the TV, and the best part is how dysfunctional they seemed to be, but once they got together... man... the connection was out this planet, BLAIR SAID IT HERSELF, "Dan and I have a real connection" excuse me but yours could never, Dan and Blair enjoyed the same music, both cinephiles, art loves, literally the most adorable assholes of the whole show, they were each other safe place and ruined my whole life, bye.

4.- Ryan Atwood and Marissa Cooper.

MY WHOLE ASS BABIES😩😩😩 OKAY BUT LISTEN,,,,, STAR-CROSSED LOVERS, FROM DAY ONE, RYAN COULDN'T BELIEVE HIS EYES WHEN HE MET MARISSA, MARISSA EVEN MADE HIM A MIXTAPE BECAUSE HE NEVER LISTENED TO MUSIC PROPERLY, MY HEART ACHES, they are my entire world and my 1st otp ever, i would love them forever.

5.- Barney Stinson and Robin Scherbatsky.

THESE TWO LITERALLY GOT MARRIED AND TALKED ABOUT HOW THEY WERE SOULMATES IN THE DAMN FUCKING SHOW, BARNEY ABANDONED HIS WHOLE PAST FOR ROBIN AND ROBIN FOUND A MAN SHE REALLY WANTED TO GET MARRIED TO, LIKE, NAME A MORE ICONIC DUO I'LL FUCKING WAIT FOREVER. I can't stand thinking about that finale without wanting to break everything, Barney did such amazing things for Robin, they healed each other and worked they way to the altar together and... they made it... they proved they were each other half, and... Like that they were ripped off our hands, leave me alone.

6.- Brooke Davis and Peyton Sawyer.

They were in love... Perfect for the childhood friends to lovers trope😭 they were each other best relationship and loved each other more than anything, my heart aches. Let's not talk about the queerbait because i might get angry... But yeah, Peyton even told Brooke she was in love with her in this same scene *sighs* deserved a life together.

7.- Rich Hardbeck and Grace Blood.

Could write an easy on why they are the best couple on skins and why they deserved so much better. OPPOSITES ATTRACK PEOPLE, and these two proved that to the maximum limit, ballet and metal music never looked so good together. Rich grieving over Grace is the saddest thing I've ever seen, and I wish they had gotten their well deserved endgame.

8.- Sheldon and Penny Cooper.

Ahhh yes, remember when Sheldon proposed to Penny in a argument about climate change? And then they got married at the comicbook store because none of them could affort a proper wedding but they couldn't wait to get married? And Penny decided to go as "Penny Cooper" and Sheldon felt so happy he just hugged her an hour straight? *the biggest sigh ever* We. Could. Have. Had. It. ALL, EVERYTHING, THE CHEMISTRY BETWEEN THESE TWO SLAPS ME IN THE FACE EVERYTIME THEY INTERACT, i waited for their canon and endgame for FIVE YEARS, and now i won't get either... Life sucks guys, and so do the tbbt writers.

9.- Rachel Berry and Santana Lopez.

These girlfriends😭 okay so I prefer Finchel over them, but, it was impossible to have their endgame at all... So, I'd have to go with my two babies whom recently been owning my ass so much. Rachel and Santana are THE power duo, badass actitude, talented af, want it all, but always feel alone, just imagine how amazing their relationship would have been, i'm so sad, Santana loved her so much....

10.- Scott McCall and Isaac Lahey.

WASTED POTENTIAL OH MY GOD, CAN'T BELIEVE A GAY MAN QUEEBAITED THE SHIT OF ME THIS UGLY, LIKE, TRY TO WATCH THEIR SCENES AND TELL ME THEY WEREN'T IN LOVE, YOU LITERALLY CAN'T, if it wasn't for them Scira would have made the top 10/10 but... I'm a slut for non-canon queerbait :) Scott was Isaac's anchor): and Scott loved him so much it hurts me too see it. They should get married and move to Paris together bye.

Robin (HIMYM) for the pairing ask!

NOTP

Robin x Ted. The show tried really hard to make me like it but it didn't succeed. The "I can't be with anyone but you" trope was really annoying, especially since there were clearly better matches for both of them than each other.

BROTP

Robin and Ted. They clearly love and care for each other but they don't have that romantic and sexual chemistry they should have to be a couple so all this love and care makes them a great platonic pair. The fact that the show tried to turn something clearly platonic to romantic was a huge turn off for me. They're besties.

OTP

Robin x Barney. Robin x Barney. Robin x Barney.

Robin x Barney.

There are just so many things that are right with this pair. They have all the romance and sexual tension Robin and Ted are missing. I honestly believe they never stopped being in love even when they were apart. The relationship wasn't too cheesy or forced and it honestly, it took me by surprise when it first happened because I expected the main girl to date the main boy (Ted) and was really excited to find out it wouldn't be a predictable and overused trope. Both of them claim they're not relationship material yet both of them tried to love each other the best way possible. I find the "I'm willing to try for you" trope way more healthy and less forced than the "I don't need to try because we're so perfect for each other" trope. The finale didn't happen.

Second Choice

Robin x Lily.

Head empty.

Just lesbians and horny energy.

That's all.

No deep reasoning here.

Fluffy pairing

Again Robin x Barney because Barney will hold get hand and smell her hair. He'll listen to her talk about her day and he'll tell her about his. They're hopelessly, irretrievably in love with each other.

Angsty Pairing

Robin x Kevin. I felt physical pain when Robin accept his proposal and I know for a fact that so did Barney. But for some reason I couldn't stop crying when Kevin left Robin (probably because I felt really bad for her). Their whole relationship was torture for me because I'm head over heels for Robin x Barney and it still hurts me to watch "Tick Tick Tick" and "The Drunk Train"

Favourite Poly Ships

I'm sure nobody saw this coming but Barney/Robin/Lily. It's really not complicated, I just love Robin/Barney and Robin/Lily. I also find it funny how Barney playfully hits on Lily all the time so why not put it all together?

Weirdest Pairing

Honestly, Barney and Lily are the only people I've imagined dating Robin and none if them are really weird so I suppose I have nothing for here
