Enjoy this crack, everybody. It has nothing to do with anything I write usually, but it was a glorious request by a friend of mine that his username won't show up apparently

There was once a very beautiful triggerfish. He had a beautiful yellow, black, and blue body, a tail that showed off his best qualities, and a strong fin that would hold him in the rocky areas if he needed to hide. The only thing that wasn't beautiful about him was that he had a pig nose.

Seriously.

His Hawaiian name, Humuhumunukunukuapua'a, sounded beautiful. But really, it was a really long and fancy way to say "Pig nosed fish."

Enter Lauwiliwilinukunukuʻoiʻoi. 

Her name was even longer. And she had a snout as long as that name. You may know her from Finding Nemo, where her cousin, Tad (Wait, that's the fish's name???? What the hell?) admitted to being obnoxious and then participated in peer pressuring a small disabled fish into a potentially deadly situation. A truly stunning performance.

If these two fish were to talk, I would imagine it would go like this. 

"Man, I have such a long name." Humuhumunukunukuapua'a would say.

"As do I. Mine is longer." Lauwiliwilinukunukuʻoiʻoi would reply. "And mine is pretty, at least. It means 'Long-snout fish shaped like a wiliwili leaf'. Pretty cool, huh?"

"Damn it, I wish my name meant something nice."

"Why the hell is the author even writing about fish talking to eachother anyways?"

"Because it was requested by a loyal fan, stupid."

But this scenario can't happen.

For they were only...

Fish and another fish.
