Ravensblood Forest but imma keep it hella 1987

The youth let out an adorable squeak when Tegan poked her awake, blinking up at him blearily. She made no move to sit up. Bat groggily processed all the words he was throwing at her, fighting an urge to scowl. She liked Tegan and didn't want him to rethink his agreement to let her tag along with him.

"Nomi is one of my mothers," Bat explained in a voice thick from sleep. She finally pushed upright, rubbing at one eye. She was too out of it to point out that she'd already used that word around him once or twice. "Nomi is Heda," she added, which was relevant if not particularly pertinent right now.

As all systems finally booted, Bat frowned, although not at Tegan. She just didn't like being reminded of nomi or anything to do with Drageda or her past right now. She would much rather live in the moment and look forward to the future. Metaphorically speaking, she gathered up all her history and chucked in a closet, slamming the door and locking it, then mopping the floor for good measure: a blank slate.
