Pete's Expert Summary
So, the Human has acquired a bag of what appears to be discarded plastic shrapnel in a riot of garish, random colors. They call them "Technic Gears & Axles" from a brand I've never heard of, ASTEM, which already sounds suspiciously like a sneeze. The idea is for the Human to snap these little bits together to build... something. While the individual pieces might offer a fleeting moment of batting practice before they're lost under the sofa, the real potential—or peril—lies in what clumsy contraption my staff attempts to construct. Honestly, it seems like a colossal waste of effort that could be better spent opening a can of salmon.

A Tale from Pete the Cat
The crinkle of the plastic bag was the first offense. It wasn't the promising rustle of a new bag of premium treats, but a cheap, thin sound that grated on my nerves. My human, whom I shall call The Tinkerer for the purposes of this sad tale, emptied the contents onto the living room rug. It was a cacophony of color—a pile of tiny, jagged plastic bits that looked like the aftermath of a droid uprising in a crayon factory. I gave the pile a cursory sniff. It smelled of nothing, of cold, mass-produced potential. I flicked a single red gear with my paw. It skittered, unsatisfyingly, and I turned my back, tail twitching in profound disapproval, to resume my nap on a nearby velvet ottoman. This was clearly another one of The Tinkerer's fleeting, pointless hobbies. For the next hour, the peace was shattered by a series of irritating clicks and snaps. I opened one eye to observe The Tinkerer hunched over the pile, brow furrowed in a display of utterly wasted concentration. Slowly, a monstrosity began to take shape. It was a long, rickety arm, a grotesque limb of clashing yellow axles, blue gears, and gray connectors. It lacked any sort of aesthetic cohesion. It was an insult to the carefully curated feng shui of my domain. I sighed, a deep, weary sound meant to convey my profound disappointment in their life choices, and closed my eyes again. A voice, thick with unearned pride, broke my slumber. "Watch this, Pete!" I refused to grant them the satisfaction of a response, but a strange, low whirring sound forced my eyes open. The contraption was moving. At one end of the rickety arm, a small cradle I hadn't noticed before held a single, perfect, freeze-dried minnow. At the other end, The Tinkerer was turning a small crank. With a clumsy, shuddering grace, the arm began to pivot, slowly, agonizingly, across the floor. It was a device built for a single, absurd purpose. The arm swung in a wide arc, its trajectory becoming unnervingly clear. It was aimed directly at me. It came to a gentle stop precisely one inch from my nose as I lay upon my ottoman. The little platform tilted, and the minnow slid directly onto the velvet beside my whiskers. I didn't move. I simply extended my neck, took the minnow, and crunched it thoughtfully. The Tinkerer was beaming. I looked at the ugly, ridiculous machine. Then I looked at The Tinkerer. I gave a slow, deliberate blink. The plastic bits were still junk. The engineering was crude. But the application... the application showed promise. This wasn't a toy. This was an upgrade to my service staff. I will allow them to continue their work.
