Everyone has very important lore stuff to ask, but I have the most important to ask of them own: is the tail in human form sensitive? what if, someone stepped on Talos or someone else's tail??

Very important question!! It's as sensitive as another limb would be. Stepping on someone's tail is pretty much equivalent to stepping on their hand or their foot basically

However, this also comes with the added fact that yoinking your arm away and swatting as a reaction and yoinking or swishing a tail as a reaction are very different. If you've ever been whipped by a large dog tail then it's like that but 10x as powerful.

In Talas' or Hades' case since they have huge tails at the very least they could sweep your legs out from under you and make you fall flat. In Graves' case it would HURT to get smacked by it bc their tail is pure muscle

#ask #anon #in general they are big enough that theyre less likely to be stepped on and more likely to be a tripping hazard honestly #talas has a high pain tolerance and usually is aware of people around him so if someone stepped on his tail he would barely react #in terms of pain or yelping i mean. but he would retaliate in annoyance #graves and hades would both go OW!!!!!!!!!!! And sweep you off your feet (derogatory)#tails are very common in merfolk so people know how to be mindful around them so stepping on them is a rare occasion #and seen as exceptionally rude #challenger deep #yeah sure ill tag it
