His earth elementals ironically enough went mostly unnoticed to the one who bore them. He didn't notice that his tail easily moved rocks without effort, or that digging small holes to leave his prey was far easier and that the dirt seemed to pile just where he wanted it. He didn't really care, for one thing, nor was he exactly observant enough to notice it. After all, he wasn't exactly concerned with much more than keeping his belly full and body warm. Concerns over intergroup issues, the recent kidnappings, and things that made the Coalition what it was? Those were things that he instead liked to listen to as he sunbathed, more than happy to nod and be supportive than actively partake.
What did catch his attention was when it smacked him in the snout. He had been laying down for one of his many naps when his face met something other than rough, scaly tail. His eyes blinked open and his head lifted, starting at his tail. The limb was unaltered, mostly, spare the two new growths that he only now noticed. Sharp, jagged, sturdy rocks now settled near the end of his tail. Long, far longer than that of his talons and teeth. Sturdy enough to hurt, not that Anthemtalon really cared about that. It had interrupted his nap, after all, and a sleepy lizard was a rather grumpy one. It was made evident with movement that almost could come across as aggressive, even though Anthem was anything but an aggressive individual.
Huffing, he pulled his tail around closer to his face to inspect what had interrupted him from using his tail as a pillow. Instead of being amazed at the sight of these new growths as some would, these useful additions to his body that most certainly made him the slightest bit more unique, he instead settled for something else (more 'Anthem-y', as to be expected). Chewing on the rocky protrusions, which did not have nerves and so did not feel pain. Gnawing on them, as to be expected with Anthemtalon's reputation for eating things that definitely could not be considered edible. Was it because he wanted to stretch his jaw? Because it had disturbed his attempt of napping? Unlikely to be answered, with him gently tugging on the newly grown thagomizer with his maw with absolutely no success. "Stuck."
