ETA: eilowyn mentioned NPH's comments in his choose your own adventure biography and now i've seen the quote and I. JUST. CAN'T.
YOU ASKED FOR THIS. JUST REMEMBER THAT YOU ASKED FOR THIS.
Yes I did and thank you! I can't see the video for Cobie's final robin scene because it says "private" but I can google it. I love Cobie's head canon so so much. PERFECTION IS PERFECT. (Barney on the back....) Now I can worship Cobie with confidence.
Interesting that's seven months before the finale and afterwards everyone is doing the polite thing in words (the other video) because honestly, they are paid to promote the show; that is usually part of the actor's contract.
THAT SCENE GIVES ME ALL THE FEELS. THAT was the scene that put the nail in the coffin on the notion of even remotely shipping Robin/Ted. THAT scene solidified my Barney/Robin love (like how am I supposed to ship R/T after watching that scene?)
And the scene where she says she can't have kids and Barney just hugs her -UGH. Christ. He loves her for who she is. (The scene where Barney tells Loretta that kills me.) But Ted wants Robin as part of a package - and he'll "allow" himself to go back to her only after he gets what she can't provide from another woman who then dies because she was really just a womb after all?
I have a lot of words for this bs and none of them are safe for mixed company. NO NO NO NO
It's shit like this and the Buffy comics that make me wonder what the hell conservatives are talking about when they blather on about "liberal media", when Joss says he hates the word feminist and women of all ages blather on that "I don't need to call myself a feminist". (I've been listening to that shit for decades; it didn't make sense to me in college 20 years ago and still doesn't.) YES YOU DO DEAR. Because deep in their hearts some of the most powerful men in the media industry, who claim to be allies, still see us as cunts and wombs and "the angel of the household" existing only to mirror and reflect them as they want to be seen.

Also it took me to gifs of the Robin/Loretta scene and I'm so grateful - and crying all over again: "My name's Mom. Don't you ever call me anything else. I'm Mom."
