"You have not traveled enough," she said. "Or you'd know that every journey makes its own map across your heart." - Sharon Shinn. Life is not about reaching a destination; it's about getting there. This is a collection of missing moments illustrating Barney and Robin's journey, laughter, tears, heartbreak, happiness, friendship and lots of fluffiness included! :)

"… Please! It'd be so cool if you could do some magic on my birthday party. None of my friends believe me that you're a real wizard," Vanessa pouted.

"That's because I'm a magician, kid. Harry Potter is a wizard," he emphasised.

"Wha'ever," she said. "Swear you'll come?" She put out her pinkie.

He went down on his knee and linked his pinkie with hers. "Okay, Vany Westside. But I'm afraid I can't do fire. You know how your dad gets."

She hugged him fiercely. "Cool! You're awesome, Uncle Barney."

(She still remembers every trick he did on her seventh-birthday-party.)
