Note
So...I've had these headcanon type things floating around my harddisk for a couple weeks/months now. Initially, they were meant ask "sketches" for what I planned on writing into full length fics/drabbles. But given the general angst and separation anxiety resulting from Bernie's departure, I decided hell, why not put these out there for people to read. Some of y'all might even enjoy them. P.S. Title of this series of things inspired by Tony Bennett and k.d. lang's rendition of "Exactly Like You" off their album "A Wonderful World". Go listen to it! Promise you won't regret it.
Chapter 7
April 20, 2025 at 11:39 AM
Bernie is hopeless at recognising popular tunes and music (can’t tell her Cher from Dusty Springfield). However, she can carry a tune. Incidentally, so can Serena. Serena only discovers that Bernie can sing when she stumbles on Bernie sorting the laundry in their bedroom, one fine day. Bernie’s singing a rather charming acapella version of “Down by the Salley Gardens", and Serena leans against the doorjamb, joins in the last verse. Bernie wavers, blushes and looks up. Serena only smiles and takes the pile of towels from her, dropping a kiss to the top of her head as she wanders over to the airing cupboard.
