Nova Peak a lesson to be learned

Bazi did not understand her son's inspections and plant-foraging as anything other than uncomfortable weirdness, and had to siphon every ounce of spare energy into not losing her shit. She seethed as he sniffed her, teeth clenching when he moved to his pile of useless greens. What on Darwin's green earth was he doing?

The frustrated mother was not given much time to ponder this question in the context of a rational mind - instead of apologizing, Swift swore (at plants, but Bazi wasn't to know that), and Bazi's patience ran dry. With a strangled snarl, she turned tail and marched off, leaving her son to his ridiculous games. Better that than strangling him.
