Hello there, dear reader, and welcome to
Porg Perils.
Now, understandably, you might be very confused as to what is going on here. To that, I say, never fear. I would tell you what is going on and all that jazz, but it quite literally isn’t my story to tell. I shall leave that to a dear friend of mine, Porgie, a very curious and daring little creature.. He has quite the story to tell, and fate may have you decide the outcome of our little friend here. Why don't you take a listen to a transmission I recieved from him?

Porgie's Sardine Squirmish
(porg chirps, squawks, screeches are translated by me)
Hello *inquisitive chirp*. Since you’re here, I must tell you something that is going on. I need a bit of help, and a friend told me I could ask you. I wanted to be the most daring ever porg and brave the great galaxy, which landed me in the center of things. Coruscant. That’s where my problems began. You see, a few hours ago, I got hungry. Really hungry. So hungry I could hear my stomach growling. I was worried the tall two legged people could hear. Like any sensible porg, I decided to fly around in search of something. Anything.
After what felt like lightyears, I found something in a local diner. Well, I can smell it. Actually, I can see it from here. A whole plate of steaming fish, maybe topped with sardines. The only thing in my mind is getting the food. I want the food. I need the food. What is a porg without a good fish meal? Well, I need to get in the diner to get my meal… but how? Luckily for you, I thought of three different ways to get inside the diner for my meal and to make a run for it if someone notices me. Now the only dilemma I have is: what should I do? Here are my ideas.
Options
1. Someone sees me, toss a sardine at them and still run.
2. Walk through the front door. They’ll never see it coming. Hide under a table until the coast is clear to grab a sardine, kick a wad of crunched up flat bread to distract any potential witnesses, fly, and get my sardine. If someone sees, fall onto a plate and pretend to be a meal. Then fly away when I get the chance.
3. Attach myself to someone walking into the restaurant and nicely poke at their legs so they walk in the direction of the sardine plate. Once I’m close enough, I fly to the plate. Get the sardines. Then hide in someone’s bag until they leave the diner. Once I’m in the clear, I fly away! If someone sees, I fly to the nearest open bottle of sauce, grab it, and begin pouring it everywhere. Diversion works! Right??
Someone help me out here! Which plan will work??
