But not an anti-combat, anti-murder, or even an anti-death forcefield, so Nameless hacked it into pieces.

But all of the above counted as violence, so Nameless’ attempts did nothing. Every time he moved to strike the jellyfish, confetti would sprout from its body.

Nameless rolled his eyes, then grabbed the jellyfish, carried it out of the forcefield, and murdered it properly, as the forcefield didn't have anti-abduction or anti-kidnapping properties.

Nameless did not account for the fact that the forcefield's source was inside of the jellyfish, making it impossible to remove the jellyfish from the forcefield.

Dapper paused what he was doing to inquire whether the jellyfish was a fish made of jelly or a sea jelly, which are often confused with fish made from jelly, despite the two being from totally different places on the tree of life. 

[The_Archivist he/him]

Archivist decided to annoy the jellyfish to death by explaining the lore of everything with only "you know" and "that thing"

[Truthless of Shinovar he/him]

Luckily, it never happened, because it wasn’t in bold.

Archivist decided to annoy the jellyfish to death by explaining the lore of everything with only "you know" and "that thing" (and since it is in bold, everything is shouted)

[Truthless of Shinovar he/him]

The jellyfish, while very bored, did gain a very vague and general knowledge on the lore of everything.

By the way, welcome to the Shard!!

The jellyfish was indeed a sea jelly, although it had been mistaken as a fish made from jelly countless times.

Thanks! Archivist realised he needed to change tactics and became a pacifist. I don't know why that's helpful, I'm just doing it.

Nameless decided to change tactics. He sped up time around the jellyfish, allowing it to die of old age.

But Nameless forgot the jellyfish is functionslly immortal and cannot be killed by old age.

Instead, he waited so long that he died of old age.

[old man moomba he/him]

Dapper helpfully pointed out that in the case that this creature was functionally immortal then it must be a sea jelly and not a fish made of jelly.

But eventually the jellyfish died of genetic degredation.

But it was only a temporary death- not really a death at all.

[+Ed Venture]

Because it came from the book The 14th Goldfish.

[old man moomba he/him]

Dapper picked up this odd jellyfish and put it into a jar, intending to remove it from this plane of existence.

[NameIess]

Nameless narrowed his eyes at the jellyfish. "time to pull out the big guns" He thought. He pulled out Nightblood, advancing towards Dapper.

[old man moomba he/him]

Dapper inspected the jellyfish nonchalantly. He wondered if it had a name. 

"Do you have a name?" He asked.

Nameless stabbed Nightblood into the anti-violence forcefield. The forcefield instantly transformed into black smoke, absorbed into Nightblood.

[The_Archivist he/him]

Archivist then broke his oath of pacifism and burned the jellyfish alive.

[old man moomba he/him]

Dapper held out a hand. "If you would wait a moment please. This creature has yet to answer my question."

[NameIess]

"Well, you can always talk to it's cognitive shadow." Nameless said.

[old man moomba he/him]

Dapper watched the jellyfish burn to ash and sighed. "No point, really. Too much hassle. A fascinating creature to be sure though. A pity you were so fixated on slaying it."
