While I Am Used To Feeling The General "shape" Of My Quills, I'm Not Used To Feeling Them... Bristle?

While I am used to feeling the general "shape" of my quills, I'm not used to feeling them... bristle? For lack of a better descriptor. It's a different sensation, and not nearly as vague, which I find interesting and odd. Definitely unique.

It's a feeling that sort of takes up the entire space of my scalp and upper back- even slightly on the top of my forehead. I can only describe it as "stiff", but it's.. a bit more than that.
