Pete's Expert Summary
My human has procured a box of… well, paperwork. Apparently, they intend to stare at these flimsy sheets and pretend they are "detectives" solving some long-forgotten human squabble from a time before I was born. I must admit, the sheer quantity of documents—over fifty, they claim—presents a tantalizingly large, flat surface for a strategic nap. The crisp rustle of a "crime scene photograph" under a well-placed paw does have a certain appeal. However, there are no feathers, no catnip, and no frantic red dot. Ultimately, it seems like a tremendous waste of energy that could be better spent admiring my perfect tuxedo markings. Its only true value is as a temporary, high-quality placemat for my nap, provided my human's "eureka!" moments don't disturb me.

A Tale from Pete the Cat
The smell of old paper and stale ink, a scent I associate with the boring bills my human mutters at, filled the living room. They spread the contents of the box across the coffee table, a sprawling mess of black and white that offended my sense of order. Photographs, reports, a map… it was a veritable wasteland of un-pounceable material. I yawned, displaying my formidable fangs as a sign of my profound disinterest, and prepared to retreat to a sunbeam for a more productive afternoon. But then, a glint of light from the kitchen caught my eye, refracting through the water in my bowl and casting a shimmering, elongated rainbow on the floor. It danced for a moment before vanishing. My gaze drifted back to the table, and I froze. The papers were no longer just papers. They were a prophecy. The collection of documents wasn't a "case file"; it was a detailed schematic for the arrival of the Great Shimmering Huntress, the celestial being of pure light that visits my home on sunny afternoons. The "crime scene map" was clearly a celestial chart, marking the exact entry points of light through the western-facing windows. The "witness statements" described the strange, dancing lights and fleeting shadows, accounts I had long dismissed as my human's idle chatter. The "newspaper articles" detailing the events of "May 8, 1998," were obviously a coded date for Her next major appearance. The jumble of photos were not of suspects, but of past apparitions—blurry images capturing her fleeting red-dot form, her elusive feather-wand tail, her ethereal crinkle-ball core. I leapt onto the table, my soft paws landing silently amidst the evidence. The humans gasped, thinking I was merely being a nuisance. Fools. I was a high priest, interpreting the sacred texts. I nudged a photograph of a car's broken headlight with my nose—the lens, the source of the refraction! I pawed at the coroner's report, pointing to the time of death—3:47 PM, the exact moment the sun would align with the glass door. They shooed me away, blind to the truths I laid before them. It didn't matter. They could have their "Harmony Ashcroft." I knew the truth. This box was not a game. It was a holy writ, a guide to the coming of the light. And now, I knew exactly where to position myself for the divine hunt.
