Porgs were not on his list of acceptable pets. They were more on the list of acceptable meat filling but Ben wasn't about to tell his grandmother that. She had sounded so excited just to see one and then very disappointed when Hux had tried to tell her the bad news. He certainly had never thought he'd be trading porgs for macarons but at least he might earn some favor by rescuing one for her.
At least the one-handed pirate had graciously handed over one of the Porgs without him having to make a mess in the kitchen first. Ben knew he would need to ask Hux for help. He knew macarons were tasty. He didn't know how the hell to make them. Or where to even start. Sugar? Lots of sugar and ...cream? He was sure the oven was involved at some piotn.
It wasn't too hard to find which room Padme had been assigned to and once he met with Hook to pick up up the porg, he headed straight over. She was quick to greet him but before he stepped in, he held out the porg for her. Correction, the bag that the porg was in. He hadn't wanted to risk the thing biting him. "Hello, again." He nodded, not sure what to call her but at least offering a small smile in return. "I should warn you these things can make a mess."
