Eticalb

Eticalb is the het ship between Etihw and Kcalb from the Funamusea fandom.

The Gray Garden
Etihw and Kcalb are the respective god and devil over the Gray Garden. A past once rife with struggles and war, Etihw sealed underground for centuries for currently unknown reasons. The Great War was fought after broke free from his prison. Many of their subordinates were slaughtered as a result. The war has since ended and time has passed. Etihw and Kcalb are married and even have a daughter together named Silhouete. Compared to other god and devil pairings in the Funamusea fandom, the two get along quite well and care for each other. The two share a very close bond with one another, close to the degree that Kcalb has a near-phantom "sense" over the well-being of Etihw. Though Etihw is older than Kcalb, they depend on him for knowledge on topics such as other-world cruelty and brutality. Etihw often teases Kcalb over any number of subjects, frequently besting him at games such as Othello, and the two are often bickering with each other. A favorite topic of Etihw's is teasing Kcalb about his age, even though they are older than him.

Kcalb patently dislikes being teased by Etihw regarding his age, sweet tooth, and other quirks but never takes it to heart and enjoys their company nonetheless. He worries over them when they are separated. He plays games, eats, and goes on walks with Etihw, but they are mostly seen conversing together in the Gray Room. He is often reduced to a blushing stuttering mess in the face of Etihw's romantic advances. Throughout the years, he has harbored feelings for them and developed an overprotective disposition whenever someone attempts to influence them.

Children
Etihw and Kcalb have a child named Silhouette. She is said to be oblivious and similar to her mother personality-wise. Also like Etihw, she is quiet and reserved. Silhouette is very close to both her parents. She will sometimes play common pranks on her father, though only to tease him.

Fanon
Eticalb is one of the most popular The Gray Garden ships. Many fans view Etihw as the more dominant in the pair as they are forthcoming in their speech and teasing mannerisms. Kcalb is typically depicted as more meek and blushing when around Etihw. Fan works that picture the two during The Great War show them to be cold and distant from each other, as they were enemies.

On AO3, there are currently 105 written works.
