Kai floated in the middle of his saltwater pool. The water was calming, providing a sense of comfort only the ocean could provide. After a bit, he surfaced, pushing his aqua colored hair back and sighing contentedly.
He slipped out of the pool and activated his bracelet to shift into his human form, his scales melting into tan skin as his fin turned into legs. Kai reached for a towel, drying off as he admired his reflection in the wall mirror. With a smile, he ran a hand through his now-chocolate brown hair and grabbed a teal tank top and a pair of swim trunks, for that I just got back from the beach look, even though he would definitely be going to the beach later. “Lookin good!” He shot finger guns at his reflection. He decided that today was going to be a good day.
After dressing, he slipped his shell necklace over his head and adjusted his flower crown before stepping out of his room. The air outside his humid apartment felt different. It was drier than what he was used to, but the condo’s protections kept it comfortable enough for him. Making his way down the hall, Kai hummed to himself, thinking about heading to the restaurant to grab a breakfast of sushi.
Eventually, he made his way to the main building, where he spotted Theris at the front desk, her hair alive with her usual companions. “Mornin’ Theris!” he greeted her with a playful nod to her entourage. “And same to all the snakes too.”
