The Power of the Press
Who: Pete and you!
What: Catch all for August. Also, tabloids.
Where: See prompts!
When: August 5th - August 18th
Warnings: None right now! Will match format!
A is for Animal Kingdom (August 5th - August 10th)
[To be quite honest, Pete hasn't exactly been enjoying his work as security. Ever since he tried beating up that blonde kid (whatever his name was), the higher ups have been keeping a closer eye on him. Never mind the fact that he was not on duty at the time, nor had he even realized that he had been assigned a job in the first place.
So he can't go around just beating up people without reason. And, unfortunately, they don't count "being too nice" a reason to sock people in the jaw. It's killing him that he can't even do what he was supposed to do--but, hey, at least he can still insult people if it suits him. But all that pent up anger means that Pete is dying to leap on anyone that even remotely looks like they're committing a crime, so you might be confronted by a large cat with a smile a bit too wide.]
And what do you think you're doin'?
B is for...uh...Bad Ideas All Over Progress City (August 11th - August 18th)
[Since they started distributing those cellphone things from Ellen's Lab, the gears in Pete's head have been turning. With the introduction of new technology comes new ways to be mean to people, of course. With social media, it's far too easy for misinformation to spread.
Which is exactly what Pete wants. He's busy putting up posters all over town that read:]

*truth is subjective
[If there's anything that Pete loves more than beating people up, it's spreading lies and defaming people. You might catch Pete putting up these posters around town, or maybe you wanna help out in his quest to spread the "truth"? Either way, he's got a whole spiel ready for you.]

[He spits out a nasty glob of tobacco onto the floor and digs it into the ground with his foot. Then, with a loud HAH!, Pete winds up and goes to punch Snake straight in the jaw.]
no subject
As Pete throws his punch, Snake side-steps it and grabs his shoulder with a practiced precision, grapples under his other arm, and, rather impressively, turns around and throws the cat man over his back.
With Pete on the ground, Snake taps the ashes from his cigarette.]

[Pete goes down hard, causing stars to appear out of his head. It takes a minute or two before he staggers back up onto his feet, spitting out a tooth onto the ground. His face looks contorted with rage.]
Rotten trickster! Why, I oughta--!
[He tries charging at Snake again, arms outstretched to throttle him.]
no subject
Are you done?
no subject
Out of nowhere, he pulls out a tiny white flag and starts waving it around frantically, trying to signal for Snake to let go.]
no subject
With a grunt, he relights his cigarette, leaning back against the wall as if nothing much had happened.]
no subject
After a moment or two, he keels over onto the ground, birds springing into existence and flying around his head, tweeting. Looks like he's out for the count.]
no subject
Toons, huh?
