Potato Head Provider
The emperor is still ruling the kingdom with a chubby iron fist.
Three days ago he learned the phrase "In a second."
Now, if asked to do anything, even if he is standing aimlessly in the middle of the room doing nothing, the guaranteed response?

It's cute. Except for when you're waiting for ten minutes while he ...

Step 4: Occasionally unload pointer-noodle into mouth.
Step 5: When necessary, hide from controlling parents who suggest you shouldn't play with your food.
