Kāmohoaliʻi, Kalei and their son; baby Nanaue!

I combined some aspects of Kaikea's (the woman portrayed as "delusional" for believing herself to be Nanaue's mom in Superboy '94) design with a pre-colonial look for Kalei's design. Kaikea eventually feeds her arm to Nanaue in the comics, so she's an amputee.

In my au, Kalei is a queer kapa-maker who falls in love with Kāmohoaliʻi the Shark God. This takes place long before Hawai'i was colonized. No, Kalei did not feed her arm to a shark. And no, Kāmohoaliʻi did not bite it off in a misplaced habit from shark-mating. Kalei is just born limb different this time! To Kāmohoaliʻi, there's nothing incomplete about her.

I'm trying out adding some ray-vibes to Kāmohoaliʻi. As a nod to how sharks and rays share similar biology. His merman form needed something a little extra for his head shape, so ray wings it is I guess! Yes, it's Prince Sidon and Shape of Water inspired. For baby Nanaue, I'm trying to not echo Jeff the Land Shark too much.

[CCTV FOOTAGE: ROAD]

CCTV footage catches Fia as she walks along the road, entering the city. Her brown hair is limp against her face, white dress covered in dirt and new tears, and body dotted with red from the various scrapes and cuts from her recent tumble down a hill. She walked slowly, as if in pain. The plastic sewing box she carried everywhere swung from her hand.

"Kalei... Kalei... I wonder where... Denny's? Where even is that..." she mumbled as she looked down on her phone, then up and around. She couldn't even begin to guess where Kalei may be. She didn't know what they looked like, what they wore, their identifying features. It was for the best that she didn't, but gosh did it make finding them all the harder.

The cuffs on her ankles clicked together gently as she stopped close to a Denny's, looking up at the glowing sign and wondering if Kalei had already left and went far away. That her search was all for nothing.

"Well... even if I don't find them, at least I could say I tried...?" still, Fia would feel guilty if she couldn't find Kalei. It just wouldn't sit right with her. She sighed.

"Right, swollen ankle... that's not much information, but at least it's something..."

5/16, A Touch After 8pm

Kalei appreciated Canni's apparent- well. Not Canni's... Kalei appreciated the body's choice in vehicle. A nice, purple jeep. Sure, it had gone to shit in the past decade, but it was a better car than Kalei had. Which was none.

They had one hand anxiously hovering behind Fia's back, as if she was going to collapse any second. Admittedly, she seemed steady enough on her feet, just pinching her nose to keep the bleeding down. But still. She read the King in Yellow. Kalei was not about to be less than paranoid where that book was concerned.

It was nice to see that they wouldn't all be walking, though. Kalei had rushed out of the house with just a crutch in place of their leg to help them navigate all of the bumpy sidewalks nearby, but that made their arm really tired.

(It was easier to talk about sore arms and shitty sidewalks than to admit that Kalei really, really did not want to see how this conversation was about to play out.)

Once they made it up to Canni, Kalei moved their arm away from Fia to wave. "Hello, Canni," they said. "This is Fia."

Please, they thought. Please let Canni not have seen whatever was on those videos.

A phone call transcript.

Kalei: Kat? Hey, I’m sorry. I know that seemed rude but I didn’t want to say anything over tumblr… again. Fia’s with me right now, don’t worry. Are you alone right now?

@itwasakanonevent

Kat: Don't worry. I get it. I'm, uh, I'm glad she's safe. And yeah, I'm alone. Just. Give me a minute to get down to my basement, these walls are thin.

(Shuffling can be heard on Kat's end, then creaking, and then a low hum can be heard.)

Kat: ..Okay. What's up?
