I even see my tail's shadow when I'm not wearing it. It's kinda spooky. I find it interesting that after only two weeks I've gained so many new habits just from wearing a tail.
I'm pretty comfortable wearing my tail around the house and in public now - which surprises even myself, since I'm crazy self conscious. I wore my tail out for the first time to a non-festive outing on Monday to dinner and a movie with my family, and I wore it to the Social Security Office by myself. I'm still never wearing it to school though.

School is a pain in the ass. If I were to get one, I'd be hestitant about the public as well, but that is largely becuase of my local area. I happen to live in what I prefer to call 'Farm-ville', Netherlands. Go to ANY larger town nearby, even Enschede which is 10 minutes away, and you'd be amazed by how much more accepting, extroverted and unique people are, but in this little town/area, I'd be considered the weirdest person to have ever existed. It's a small town of VERY small-minded people that basically all look the same, nobody dares to be a bit ecccentric. Considering my hair is going to be bright blue with give or take two weeks, I might as well get a tail sometime later, but school would be rough for me to attempt. My family doesn't know either, though my friends do, so the only midlly comfortable place would be at a friend's house :P


Also, dragon tails, iunno how easy those are to get :|

I'd love to wear my tail around everywhere, but I would never wear it to school or just out doing some random errand by myself. Especially at school but in other places too, I'd be afraid it'd just get dirty, worn out, be in the way etc. A lot of the fun for me outside the house comes from knowing others can see it and engage with me about it, so if no one's really around to appreciate it or they're just gonna give me a glance and that's it, then it's just sorta in the way of my legs. Of course at school that wouldn't be a problem, but it'd be labeled as a distraction, possibly confiscated, and honestly I don't trust the other students not to mess with it.

I don't really like to wear my tail anywhere but furcons/meets. Because otherwise I tend to fail to see the point, and I already look goofy enough just dressed normally, so I think a tail would make it even worse XD

Well, I'm a really boring person, and I rarely express myself emotionally, or artistically. I grew up rather fast, mastering being the "strong man of the house" at a young age, since my dad was always deployed. As a kid, my idea of that profile was emotionless, stoic, and calm. That personality sticks with me till today. I never share my emotions with anyone, nor do I share my art, literature, or musical works. Wearing my tail, or collar, or ear hat (when it gets here) is the one way I express myself, and it's rather freeing. Kinda like how, growing up, I watched documentaries and educational shows, and now I'm watching cartoons. It's like I'm getting my childhood back.

Thanks! :D I have a hat with ears on it, which is a lighter shade of red; almost redorange. Since fox tails are often darker than the rest of our fur, I decided to go with this color.  :3

I have three tails currently but don't wear any of them. A ridiculously GIANT tail for my fursuit, a real fox tail (from doing taxidermy in my spare time), and a rather meh attempt at a cat tail.
I'm hoping to commission a tail based on my actual fursona but I'm going to be so picky about it I just knoooow.

I've been making yarn tails, and they turn out so amazingly realistic and beautiful. The only hard part is advertising them. :3


They are definitely soft and fluffy, and the base feels like...bones, almost. They move very realistically. My favorite ones to make are multicolored ones, because you don't know how it will look until it is finished.  I would love to post an example but my pictures are HUGE...oh, wait. Attachment. HAHA! :D
