AN: So, this is an epilogue to "The Great Picspam Caper," which I haven't actually finished yet, but you should be able to follow this anyway.  My muse whispered in my ear that I should write a nice, funny, smutty bonus for the end of the Caper that might be suitable for entry in the Great Smut Duel.  My muse then proceeded to tie me down for an entire weekend and torment this out of me.  I am now scared of my muse, so if anyone else wants her, help yourself.

Previously in our story:
Everything: Lily tricks Barney and Robin into slow dancing and then takes pictures of Robin enjoying the chance to cuddle up.
The Great Picspam Caper, Part One: Lily, Marshall, and Ted kidnap Barney and Robin and tie them to chairs in the apartment.  Lily reveals Barney's secret love and says some mean things about Robin.
The Great Picspam Caper, Part Two: Still not written.  Lily picspams the captive Barney and Robin into admitting their love for each other.
Tied Up: Barney and Robin are left alone in the apartment to escape their bonds and decide how to proceed.  A radical departure in tone from earlier parts--deal with it.


( Oh, I think you two will have more fun if we let you figure that out for yourselves. )
