The fish she gestured was too small for Kaiden to kill in their shark form, so they simply reached out a quick hand and caught it. Holding the squirming fish, they placed their fingers along its neck. "See? We caught it. Now we kill it so we can eat it." With a quick gesture, he snapped the fish's neck.
Holding it out to the child, Kaiden waited to see what she'd do. The mer was almost getting used to the doll. They glanced over and saw that the doll was still watching them. Definity an almost.
