heyyyyyy buddy love the joke great joke i love the part where the brown girl is stupid and the white guy is smart i think thats really awesome and cool but ummmmmmm just checking just asking if you have ever played the game "octopath traveler 2" because you see in this game there's this minor thing where ochette's ENTIRE LIFE revolves around animals and knowing the traits of animals whereas osvald is a professor of magic, so i feel like hypothetically just maybe she would know more about fish than him. so this joke might have been the worst most obvious one you could make that fully reveals that you just think its funny to make ochette be dumb

#c.paradisi #octoposting #also osvald is wrong here amblyopsidae is the FAMILY of cave fish commonly referred to as blindfish #not amblyopsidae bonaparte. bonparte is just the guy who named them. amblyopsidae bonaparte isnt a fish #i know why you made this mistake because he's listed under the family name in wikipedia where you copied the name from w/o reading the page #also theres another fish the typholonus nasus which is commonly referred to as the 'faceless fish' although it actually has very small eyes #ochette would likely refer to it by its colloquial name as a hunter and not a scholar of marine biology #which osvald is not . just being A Scholar is equivalent to A Scientist #he might have knowledge of things outside of his specialty but he has no reason to know abt a relatively obscure fish family #bc osvald is from a coastal town he might have osmosed that eyeless fish exist #but she would be much more likely to know about it.#if you actually wanted to make this joke in character. hikari is from a landlocked desert nation #if ochette ran this bit on him he would make up “...eyeless fish???” on the spot #and she'd be like “WHAT HOWD *YOU* GET THAT?? OSVALD LIVES IN CONNING CREEK AND HE JUST MADE UP A FAKE FISH”
