Just read the tweet from @playglitch regarding the Beta Fish. That sounds like a fun item to have in game. Would need a fishbowl I'd think. Something to decorate your house with.
There is a variety of fish called "beta". I believe someone presented such to the TS staff as a joke. They are trying to come up with a name for their new mascot. :)
Can't think of a good name off hand, but I have an image in my head of a cubimal puffer fish. I picture the fish all puffed up, holding it's breath and looking rather square-ish.
Haha, Lauren! I saw you both at the bar when I first got there, and I was so sure it was cynder, but you were both wearing masks so I was scared I'd accidentally enthusiastically crazy-squee rush some strangers. So happy I finally got to meet you both! Welcome to the Bay Area! :D
