Pete's Expert Summary
So, the human has presented me with this... 'Crayola Ultimate Light Board.' It appears to be a flat, glowing rectangle upon which the smaller, clumsier humans are meant to smear colorful goo from little plastic tubes. The brand, Crayola, typically signifies a mess I am not permitted to 'assist' with. However, the promise of '3 dazzling, long-lasting light effects' is intriguing. While the act of drawing is a tedious, pointless human endeavor, a self-standing, illuminated surface could serve as a rather avant-garde warming spot or, more importantly, a stage for my dramatic silhouettes. The included 'markers' might be bat-able, but the main appeal is the potential for a new, glowing throne. The rest is just a waste of perfectly good napping potential.

A Tale from Pete the Cat
The artifact arrived on a Tuesday, a day usually reserved for long, uninterrupted sunbeam sessions. The human called it an "art project," a term that always precedes some manner of loud, colorful chaos. She placed the white slate on the living room floor, and with a click, it blazed to life. A cool, blue-white light pulsed from within, casting eerie shadows that danced across the ceiling. I observed from my post atop the bookcase, my tail twitching in mild disapproval. It was a portal, I decided. A gateway to some dimension of inferior creatures, no doubt. My suspicions were confirmed when the small human—the one with the sticky fingers and the penchant for pulling my tail—was summoned. He uncapped a vile-looking green tube and began to draw upon the portal's surface. A wobbly circle with jagged lines. A sun, perhaps? No, it was too menacing. Then came a distorted box with a triangle on top. A crude representation of this very house. He was communicating with the other side, sending them schematics. I narrowed my eyes. This was an intelligence breach of the highest order. The light board flickered, as if acknowledging the transmission. I could not allow this. As the small human was distracted by a different color—a gaudy, offensive orange—I descended from my perch with the practiced silence of a shadow. I approached the glowing tablet, now covered in their cryptic symbols. It was warm, not unpleasantly so. I placed a single, deliberate white paw directly onto the glowing surface, right over their "sun" symbol, claiming the portal for my own dominion. I am the gatekeeper now. The small human yelped, a sound of frustration. The larger human laughed and said, "Look, Pete's an artist!" They don't understand. I wasn't making art; I was intercepting enemy communications. The board is a serious piece of equipment, far too important for children. It stays. I must monitor it. For security reasons, of course.
