When Emperor de Pengu heard about the opportunity to visit a young fan, he jumped at the opportunity. Penguins are naturally familial creatures, and de Pengu realizes the importance of involved childcare. Humans are fond of saying “it takes a village” but de Pengu knows it takes a waddle.With that understanding, de Pengu made all the preparations necessary for the child's party. He made himself available for autographs for all the children present, as well as posing for pictures. He made several perimeter checks throughout the party to make certain that the surrounding area was safe from sea lions and potential orca threats.Finally, when the time came to sing Happy Birthday to the child, de Pengu joined in vigorously, despite not fully understanding the ritual. As the song wound to an end, de Pengu got the feeling that there was meant to be some sort of “big finish” to the whole affair, and he thought what better than the gift he had brought for the child? As the rest of the party goers finished with “to youuuuuuu” de Pengu grabbed the child's head, wrenched it backwards, and regurgitated into his mouth the half-eaten fish he’d had for breakfast that morning. Truly a party the child is certain to not forget for the rest of his life!
