[...please never tell him your friend gave you a sick human knife.
That question causes Poseidon to tilt his head a little in thought. That was a tricky question. Of course he has no way of knowing this is a human boy, and not a mer, so finding something that a mer couldn't find at the bottom of the sea is going to be pretty hard to come by. But after a moment's thought, he moves to gently set Choromatsu onto his shoulder as he swims his way out of his childrens' section of the reef and into another part, which is less of an actual room and more of a cavern of sorts.
Inside the cavern lies all sorts of various flora and fauna, but something like a seashell or even a rock or gem isn't what he's looking for. Instead, he sweeps low to the bottom of the sea floor, taking a huge breath and blowing away a cluster of sand piles in one corner of the cave. He reaches out to unearth something glittering underneath it all, brushing the sand away further.]
These are one of my pairs of gauntlets I used to own that unfortunately became too damaged for me to use given the strain they would have been going through. They are quite bent, but they have not yet lost their shine.
[Poseidon passes a hand over the massive hunks of gold, and with a momentarily blinding flash of light, the otherwise too-large gauntlets shrink down to a size more suitable for a civilian. Then, he picks Choromatsu up off his shoulder and holds him down so he can pick them up.]
If you find him again, you may give him these. They will deflect almost anything.
Poseidon is gonna feel so lowkey Bad when he realizes Taco's a human person
