A drabble for @absedarian's May28 prompt 'market', inspired by my own surprise about the people at the farmer's market where my parents live still knowing me and asking where my mom's at when I visit the market instead of her, even when I haven't been in years xD

~

"Ah, where's the missus today?"

Bernie turns around, startled. Sure, she knows Serena tries to go to the little farmer's market on the square on Fridays whenever she can find the time for it, but she hadn't thought the vendors knew her personally... and especially not that they'd remember her connection to Bernie, when she had only gone with Serena once or twice.

"Uh, she's picking up Elinor from the station, the train was delayed and - um, Elinor is -"

"Ah, the prodigal daughter returns! Give them my best, yes? Now, I know you lot must be running low on carrots..."

Here's a drabble for the prompt 'initiative' from @absedarian's Berena January prompt list!

~

"I... Really like her."

"Well, what are you going to do about it, mum?" Elinor asks, already bored by the discussion of her mother's non-existent love life.

"Sorry? I - no, I won't do anything, I don't even know whether she likes me back!"

"Well, she's not some guy who's going to throw himself at you, women expect the dude to ask them out so you're just going to have to take the initiative or you're stuck in a sad lesbian standoff."

"...I'm not sure whether to be grateful for your advice or sad about the state of feminism, daughter mine!"

end of year ask

16 Post a picture from the beginning of the year & 17 Post a picture from the end of the year

simple asks

5 What's your drink of choice? (Coffee/tea order, alcohol of choice, pop, etc)

Tea! Especially green tea recently, I've got some nice senchas :) tho rooibos is still one of my favs as well.

And tbh my main drink is just water, I think for most ppl that's normal but I guess not for everyone so I thought I'd say :}

10 do you play or follow any sports? & elaborate on that?

I still consider 'my' sport to be aerial silks, though I haven't been able to practice regularly this year (nowhere to hang the silks). I've been going swimming twice a week(ish, when I remember, but at least once a week), and it's fine for staying active, like, I don't hate it? And diving practice is always fun, I can dive ~30-40 meters atm, probably more if I didn't have to turn at the end of the 25m pool xD

I don't really follow any sports, I watch football⚽ when nothing better is on TV or I'm hanging out with sb interested in it, or for the women's world cup... And I watch darts sometimes? It's weirdly fascinating to watch, idek xD and it's basically always on one of the sports channels

15 What's a piece of advice you find yourself giving a lot?

To not care so much about what other people think!

And to not use AI, like holy fuck -_-

20 what do you wish someone would ask you?

Ohh difficult I can't think of anything but from this ask meme sth no-one asked me so far that I want to talk about:

2 What movie have you watched most recently? What did you think of it?

Benoit Blanc 3: Wake Up Dead Man, I actually rewatched part 1&2 in the days before part 3 came out so I'd have the direct comparison, and I loved it so much! Actually adored Knives Out even more on the 4th rewatch or so even though I know it by heart by now xD Glass Onion was only my second watch and I didn't remember all of the details so it was super interesting again, and then Wake Up Dead Man was of course completely new and all of the twists were so well executed I couldn't look away at all! Definitely recommend checking it out if you've got Netflix and you haven't seen it yet.

Good luck! You can do it! I'm sending good vibes your way! :)
