belated - weekend entertainment

[herr_bookman]

From audlocks:
Your pup has been arrested! Comment if you know why but don't tell us! Instead, we'll guess.

Or tag in to request reasons and see what cruel minds we have.

Also, consider this an official call for future DEs: Suggestion Box.

[lady_bols]

It happened. Once.

[never_shall_yield]

Public indecency while at university?

[whatisastiles]

This guy. I guess you can try to guess it outright or I'll answer yes or no questions about the reason for his arrest?

[hasthehighground]

I want to say for disrespecting a police officer, but I don't know if his dad would do that!

[bjornwilde]

My first thought is public nudity but I'm going to guess trespassing instead. Or breaking curfew.

[thenewblack]

I'll be honest. Everything I can think of gets boiled down to 'Being weird in a built-up area,' but if he was going to be arrested for that it would happen a lot.

[yakalskovich]

Well, duh!

[ask_the_right_questions]

...

[hasthehighground]

drunk tank :D

[yakalskovich]

I know, and we talked about it on AIM, so I'm not going to be mean and steal other people's potential internet cookies for guessing...

[battle_butler]

do guess...

[bjornwilde]

Hitting an officer? From his military days I'm thinking.

[1nv1nc1ble]

[OOC: Gonna let Mark answer this one, because he won't shut up.]

"Weeeelll, I'm gonna guess that it happened when you were a kid in school, so... joyriding on somebody's dinosaur?"

[OOC: Sorry. He's apparently full of snark today.]

[street_sparrow]

Ichabod Crane (Sleepy Hollow)
Giovanni Bruni (Casanova movie)
Richard Sharpe (Sharpe)
Harry Callahan (Young Wizards)
Nancy (Doctor Who: The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances)
Jonathan Levinson (Buffy)
Michael Carpenter (The Dresden Files)
Roshaun (Young Wizards)
James Norrington (Pirates of the Caribbean)
Gavroche (Les Miserables originally, now Neverwhere-verse/Milliways native)

Guess away!

[lady_bols]

If Michael doesn't have a weapons charge or two for toting Amoracchius around, I'd be stunned.

[the_gene_genie]

One time is canon.

The other times - when he was young - not so much.

[lady_bols]

Public indecency, public drunkenness, brawling, solicitation, hooliganism, reckless endangerment, reckless driving, vandalism...

How the hell did you ever get your badge in the first place?

[never_shall_yield]

Valjean's entire canon is based on his arrest(s), so that's kind of moot.

Bruce Wayne's is also canon.

If anyone can give me a reason why Banner would ever have been (pre-Hulk), then by all means do!

And ten million internet cookies to anyone who can come up with a plausible reason why Javert would ever be put behind bars. >_>

[yakalskovich]

Javert might have been undercover and somebody nicked his badge-thing off him, and then he was arrested along with the crooks he was infiltrating?

[gavin62truck]

Tommy Gavin, lol.

[herr_bookman]

Truancy, natch!

[bjornwilde]

Andrea has a canon arrest but she's not there so I'll make up one.

Others arrested are Thalia, Jess, and Val.

And since I made the mistake of posting the idea logged into a pup journal, Yang Xaio Long was arrested as well and the mugshot is classic.

[bjornwilde]

Oh, just thought of why Hank was arrested.

[damncompass]

Only one of mine have been canon-ly arrested (hi, Fantine), but I do have ideas for the other three, so guess away.

Joshua Donovan
Helena Wells
Valentine Wiggin

[whatisastiles]

Joshua... marijuana possession?

[vance_prime]

Alyx and Vanellope have both been arrested for the heinous crime of "existing." Gotta love totalitarian regimes.

[inlovewithwords]

I don't know why Henry would be arrested. Feel free to suggest.

Lois has many options.

Eriond and Tavi each have a singularly memorable canon occasion.

[fairy_fixit]

Oh, Amascut would be too easy. The hard part would be the actual arrest. Also preventing escapes.

Try Fairy Fixit instead.

[kd7sov]

Bah, late to the party, oh well. Tossing them in anyway.

Felix (venusadept_2), Kain (baron_dragoon), and Fluttershy (needs_fern).

None of these, for the record, have any canonical arrests, but I've got something for Felix and Fluttershy. Not Kain yet, so if you want to suggest there...

[morethanprops]

Late to the party but of mine, not that many have actually been arrested though some have had talkings to. Listing just the ones who have or have almost been. Though I'd love thoughts on any of them.

Have had run ins with the law:
Will Scarlett
Sameth
The Pirate King
Moist would like to point out that he hasn't been arrested for a while.

Might have but unlikely:
Charles Xavier
William Evans
Jane Austen
Demeter
Tumnus depends on what point in Narnian history

[afullmargin]

I could honestly see Charles being arrested as part of a peaceful protest at some point.

We won't go into Michael's arrests...
