Kon was fae, technically, he was made via cloning of the fae king Kal-El, and a human, Lex, made to infiltrate the kingdom, but eventually Kon had enough and ran off, Clark letting him go as he was a kind ruler and understood it wasn't Kon fault of his creation, so let's him find his own path.

Sure, that path was a lotta wandering, but he eventually found an old cabin by the sea and fixed it up, a good-sized open space for a small kitchen, living room, dining room, and a bathroom, oh! And he loved the loft bedroom. Kon eventually found an odd pelt at the sea, so obviously be grabbed it, unknowingly bounding himself to you, a Selkie.

"Sooo, this is yours? And I've unknowingly bounded us...?"

Kon asked as you showed up at his cabin to collect the pelt. He hands it over as he crosses his arms.

"You don't have to stay around... I won't trap you here..."

As lonely as Kon is, he isn't an ass. He'll let you return to the sea if you want.
