No. You misread it. That was a metaphor.

Billbert the Fish 3: The RP
Our story begins in Billbert the Fish's home, a cave in a coral reef. Everyone is hanging out in the living room, not entirely sure why they’re there. They just received an invitation in the fish mail that morning and headed over there, having nothing better to do.
Everyone looks around the living room. There are a bunch of chairs on the ground in front of a weird chair that looks like a judge’s bench. A box sits abandoned in the corner. Everyone knows that Melville the Sea Urchin used to live there, before he faked his death, killed Billbert, and then tried to strap him to a rocket and launch him into space.
Sitting at the weird judge’s bench is Billbert the Fish’s wife Brenda the Fish. She bangs a gavel against the desk and shouts, “ORDER! ORDER!” despite the fact that no one has said anything yet. “I now call the first official meeting of the Billbert the Fish FAN CLUB to order!”

Name: Aide Vex
Species: Giant Tardigrade
Personality: Mysterious, acts aloof but is probably sleep deprived, determined to accomplish her goals.
Backstory: Ancestors were discovered by Johann August Ephraim Goeze in 1773. This brought shame upon the household, as they were all spies and therefore didn't want to be discovered. The Vex family, desperate to regain their honor, began dabbling in black magic, which culminated in their firstborn of Aide's generation being so tiny that not even Johann August Ephraim Goeze could find him. Unfortunately, he got inhaled by a passing snorkler and his fate is unknown. Aide was thirdborn, and due to the dark magic in the Vex bloodline, grew to the size of a whopping four feet within ten years. Definitely discoverable by Johann August Ephraim Goeze. However, Aide doesn't see this as a detriment, as she can now *attack* Johann August Ephraim Goeze should he attempt to discover the Vex bloodline again.
Relation to Billbert: Billbert's anonymous donor.
Favorite Ice Cream Flavor: Superman
Political Party: The Anti-Johann August Ephraim Goeze Party, which is composed entirely of tardigrades
Special Skills: Spycraft skills, decryption skills, perceptive, has all abilities of a normal tardigrade
JFK Conspiracy Theory: Johann August Ephraim Goeze did it.
pH level: Can probably survive all of them, but let's say about a 6.7.

Brenda gives Aide Vex a confused glance as she says her character submission out loud.
She turns to Peter and says, "Sorry, no sandwiches. I know I said there'd be food in the mail, but the grocery store got consumed by the oil spill do obviously I couldn't get the ingredients. And no, I am NOT gonna buy the second-rate stuff they have at Bottomfeeder's, for I am a self-respecting fish woman!"
Brenda looks around, clearly annoyed. "To tell you the truth, this whole meeting is already a total mess, cause I have no idea where Stanley and Billbert are... and that's got me pretty RILED UP. And I bet you guys are riled up about the oil spill too, huh?" She bangs her gavel a few times and then says, "Okay, let's complain about the oil spill until my family finally hauls their tails in here!"

"I mean, I've heard spill has been pretty good for the higher-ups at my cubicle job. Dunno why, though. I'm not getting paid more, either... actually, since the spill sort of benefits the very existence of that cod-forsaken occupation, I guess I hate it even more than before. And now it's keeping me from lunch... great."

"Oil's black, black's cool." Sheldon teh Coolkid shrugs, at least as well as a crab can shrug. It's something that means the same thing as a shrug, at any rate.

Brenda seems pleased with most of the responses, but seems angered by Sheldon's. She shouts, "'Cool?' That oil spill has displaced 53 people, blocked off an important service route, and ruined the view outside my window! How is any of that 'cool?' Hey, if you like cool stuff, how about I STUFF YOU IN THE FRIDGE AND LAUNCH YOUR STRAIGHT INTO THE OIL SPI-"
Brenda stops herself short and then takes a few deep breaths in an attempt to calm herself. She mumbles something about her therapist's advice.
Meanwhile, everyone hears a quick series of loud knocks on the door. Do caves have doors? Can fish knock? I don't know, don't question it.

Peter is ready to duck behind the nearest cover should this door presence be hostile. He's not sure why he figures they might be hostile, but this sort of response to door knocks has become a natural instinct and habit of his, and has saved his life twice already. Don't ask.

"Was that the secret knock or not?"
Andrew had rehearsed the secret knock for hours, days even. He had engraved it to his heart in order to uphold the most treasured and closely held Billbert-related lores. If some piece of cod bozo was gonna try intruding on this sanctum of all things billbert, maybe it was time for JFK part 2...
"Quick get me the gun that can fire underwater I want to be ready for when that door opens!"

Aide sighs to herself, suspicious that her cover has been blown. Aloud, she doesn't acknowledge this, instead stating "...If needed, I could get sandwich ingredients. I'm not sure how we'd get the oil off them, however."

Burble was lost in thought for a moment, stewing over the thoughts of that oil spill mentioned earlier. So much black, that was...if there were at least three different pigments in that stuff, maybe he'd like it better, but otherwise it was most definitely not 'cool'!
But there were more pressing matters to be had. Namely, that knocking. Considering everyone else immediately treated this like it was a break-and-entering, who was Blurble to think everyone wrong? He pulls out a pie - pie flavor - and aims for the door.

"What are you guys freakin' out about? Y'all are weird." Brenda says as she leaves the weird judge's chair and swims over to the door. "That's probably just Stanley and my husband comin' home."
She opens the door, revealing Billbert the Fish's son Stanley the Fish on the other side, wearing a fire captain's hat. He looks panicked. Brenda says, "Why hello, small fry. What took you so long?"
Stanley quickly swims past his mother to the center of the room and shouts, "OH NO! IT'S TERRIBLE! First the oil spill and now this? We're doomed... WE'RE DOOMED!"
"Come again?" Brenda replies.
Suddenly, Burble's pie hits Stanley right in the face, knocking his fire captain's hat off. Despite this, Stanley throws his fins into the air and continues, "DAD'S BEEN FISHNAPPED!"

Blurble lets out a dramatic gasp. Not a fishnapping! Sure, it'd explain why Billbert wasn't here, but...without Billbert, who was going to attend the circus? After all, it was quite amazing for anyone to come to the Circus at all in this modern age, and Billbert was quite the rare, frequent customer. Without him, how will business boom?

"Well that's just not nice."
Peter says this and then kind of just sits there, seemingly indifferent.

Having just returned to his seat with the gun that can fire underwater, Andrew sighs and swims away to fetch the shotgun that can fire underwater.
"Whoever did this is gonna pay for what they did to Billbert! And for what they're doing to my boyishly attractive pereopods! These calves are gonna cut diamonds after these laps are through with 'em I tell you what!"

Stanley turns to Anthony and says, "B- But there's no way we can get him back! It's too dangerous!"
Brenda, her expression grim, replies, "What do you mean? Where is he?"
"W- Well..." Stanley replies, "W- We were just swimming home, and this h- h- HOOK came out of nowhere and pulled him into a boat! I was so s- scared; I didn't know what to do, so I ran here! N- Now who KNOWS where he could be!" Stanley covers his eyes with hsi fins and starts blubbering incomprehensibly.

Peter thinks to call 911 but then remembers last time he tried that he was mistaken for a criminal (which he kinda is but eh).
So instead he'll just try to comfort Stanley.
...
Actually he wouldn't be good at that either.
"So where's this hook?"

Andrew, passing by the proportionally correct viewing port window that he had generously donated to the Bilbert fanclub (And in effect installed into Bilbert's house itself (For strictly non-stalking related motives (of course))) Spots a conspicuously large hook floating right on top of ye olde fishflake emporium, the trashiest restaurant in this side of the seven seas.
"Huh." Andrew says as he looks out the proportionally correct viewing port window. "What do you think the chances are that it's right down the street there?"
