Welcome to Qurator's Mischievous Mondays!
This will be a weekly competition that we will be hosting every Monday. We want to see a little more engagement and fun when it comes to some of our competitions so this will be a simpler and shorter competition. Easy to enter, but maybe not so easy to win. ;) This competition will be similar to the Monday Missions we had a long time ago, but instead of writing posts to enter we will now consider only the comments and answers on this blog as your entry to win.
Why Mischievous?
We all could use a little fun in our lives. We would even say that we deserve it, let loose a little and have a go at making everyone laugh or think a little, even if it is a little over the top or pure silliness. Go all out and let your creative juices flow.

Congrats to the winners!
I've always enjoyed getting into roles and playing characters, dressing up and walking around pretending to be someone else, trying to feel a different emotion every day, provided by the contributions of the character I'm playing, seeking a little adrenaline rush in some of the missions or situations the character put me in.
It was always fun, and sometimes even dangerous or daring, because I was forced to do things a little too hard in order to make everything perfect with my performance and its setting.
I remember the time when, hooded and using a voice distorter, I kidnapped the town priest to impersonate him in the confessional... I know, it's crazy and illegal, I could go to jail for it, but it was for a good acting cause and a bit of curiosity too. Yes, I wanted to hear Lola's confession. Besides being a beautiful woman, she was the mayor's wife, and everyone imagined she was unfaithful to him on more than one occasion and with different people. My curiosity wouldn't let me live, and that's why I did it.
That morning in the confessional was great, hahaha. The advice I gave her, the information I obtained, yes, it would all be very useful for future characters.
For several days, I'd been mulling over the idea of playing a secret agent, so I could more openly approach Lola and be part of her cheating list. I had everything planned, I had information and a well-thought-out plan, but I didn't have a Secret Agent Gadget. Everyone has one that generally impresses and, in some way, identifies them, because they always have the most advanced technological devices at their disposal.
That morning everything fell into place. I had just received a strange box in the mail. It looked expensive, lined entirely in black. When I opened it, surprise and joy filled me. Inside was a boot that said...
*****Install this in her house. Her safety, well-being, and integrity are your priorities. No one, only she, can know of your existence. She and you will become one, and your success depends on this.*****
I couldn't believe it! In the box, with a detailed installation manual and everything, came a high-definition security camera system with two sets of body sensors and two sets of communication systems built into the sensors, so that even if the woman it was supposed to protect couldn't speak, we could feel or communicate through shared sensations through that sensory technology.
Ohhh!!!! It was perfect, just what I needed. The mayor was on one of his long work trips; it was time.
I showed up at Super Lola's house. I knew I was the physical type she found attractive, but she needed something more: authority, position... someone like a secret agent. I was wearing my perfect disguise, the black suit complete with Matrix-style sunglasses, my secret agent face with the required seriousness and solemnity. She opened the door; in her blue eyes, I saw that the first impact had the expected effect... "Hello, miss," I said in the deep voice of an experienced agent. "I have the mission to protect you from a terrible danger," I explained as I handed out the slip of paper. She invited me in, and I, gathering my patience, tried to stay in character, something that wasn't easy for me because of the way she was "dressed," so to speak. I opened the box and explained everything I had previously read and studied so painstakingly. Her face assumed an expression somewhere between fear and excitement. She said, "Are you going to install your equipment for me and take good care of me for the rest of my life, young man?" I swallowed hard and nodded while inside I was shaking, even the buttons on my shirt. I'm not going to go into too much detail, just that I installed everything at Lola's house. When I say everything, I mean everything... :))), we did as many technical sensory tests as were necessary, we adjusted everything to size in all the rooms, we revisited everything we could, or rather, we reviewed everything we could, :), and I became her shadow, her caretaker, her faithful personal infidelity, I mean, her faithful personal guardian, up close when the mayor wasn't there, from afar sensorially communicative when the mayor was at home. It's wonderful to be Lola's secret agent, yes, I know, soon someone will appear looking for the package that fell into my hands by mistake, but in the meantime, ...he who dies by choice... death tastes like glory, I will die if necessary as a real secret agent does, with the sword in hand... oh no, those are the samurai... well, whatever, you understand, I'll leave you now, Lola needs me. Bye
Bye to lola so it be. getting into the roles that interrest you much either in move or where else is good becsuse, what you know ,you can defend well.
My dog barked in the morning, I heard the doorbell ringing,it was a delivery. "What the hell is this? I haven’t bought anything in the past few weeks!" So, I opened the package, and to my surprise, inside was a small metallic device with a shiny button and a letter with no return address.
"Use wisely"
not knowing what it was, I pressed the button.
Suddenly, a holographic screen appeared, projecting a map of the city with locations marked in red. "Wow," I thought, "this is some super advanced GPS..." Did I somehow enter a promotion and win this?
But then I realized the map was showing my own house. And the nearest red dot was moving... right toward the front door of my house!
I pressed the button again, trying to deactivate the screen ("What the hell is going on? These damn Chinese GPSs!"), but instead, a voice came from a built-in speaker:
"Target tracking initiated."
I froze. Suddenly, what seemed like a simple delivery mistake turned into something much more complicated... and maybe, dangerous?
Not even 10 minutes had passed when I heard the doorbell ring again. I peeked through the crack, and two men in suits were standing at my door. When I opened it, they said, "I think you made a mistake when you pressed that button."
Good

It was a gray and dull Thursday like any other, when Celia was anxiously waiting for a special package she had paid for on the web, with the promise that it was a tool that would put an end to her days of discouragement and laziness. However, when she opened the package she was surprised because she didn't really understand what she had been sent.
It was a round, spaceship-like device about the size of the palm of her hand, it had a blinking light inside and looked quite futuristic to her. When she turned the device over it said on the back “gadget” and almost by involuntary impulse she pressed where it said that name. Instantly, a series of letters began to appear on the edges of the device that said “reset” and “mute”.
Celia was even more impressed and confused, she understood that there was an error in the order and that by accident she had received the package from some government agent assuming the patterns for some movies she had seen, to which the question arises: What to do with this unknown item?
Celia very quiet but analytical decides to check even more the box where that item came in order to have more clues, and to her surprise there were some instructions for the gadget, so as she was an adventurous and brave girl decided to press the “mute” button thinking that nothing had happened decides to take an expression to the air and hears nothing, so she decides to speak and still no sound, so she understood that the mute muted any activity.
Then she pressed reset and it turned out that the button made any situation have a new beginning.
Celia spent days using the gaget as a toy and at her convenience, so she understood that it was a big responsibility and put it back in its box because it was no longer fun to go out and use it.
Celia didn't want to know more about the gadget until mysteriously an agent knocked on her door and indicated that she had some of it and proceeded to take the mysterious package away.
It's a day like any other. I'm sitting on the couch watching John Wick and out of nowhere the mailman yells: MAIL! At first I thought it was strange, I wasn't expecting any package, I immediately imagined something my wife had bought. I received the package and signed for it, there was no sender, how strange! Anyway, I called my partner and asked if she had bought anything. Her answer was intriguing: she hadn't bought anything lately. I was apprehensive and, like every sensible man does, I opened it to see what was inside.
The box had about 8 layers of protection: cardboard, plastic, Styrofoam balls, foam and even toilet paper. Honestly, I imagined some kind of prank, this is common these days. After about 10 minutes of opening layer by layer, I found a glasses. My friend, my mind blessed the life of the person who tried to play this trick on me. Anyway, there was nothing I could do. Even though I imagined that the lens would be about 50 degrees and would harm my vision, I decided to try it.
When I picked it up, I felt a metallic and soft material. When I placed it on my face, it adapted to its shape, so perfectly that I barely felt its presence. The magic happened at that exact moment. My vision looked like a computer screen. Reality mixed with the virtual and countless possibilities appeared. I accidentally said, “Jesus, have mercy,” and at that very moment he created a route to the nearest church. I imagined: artificial intelligence or alien technology? Wow, the possibilities seemed endless. I accidentally mentioned, “What abilities should these glasses have?” He immediately started a tutorial explaining all the existing abilities. The X-ray vision ability seemed a bit exaggerated to me, but I should find something for that. The most incredible thing was a danger sensor. The children were playing ball in the street and a boy kicked the ball in my direction. Out of nowhere, the device activated my motor activity and helped me dodge it quickly. I was fascinated by everything.
Without thinking twice, I spent the rest of the day testing all its abilities. When the night came, I fell asleep, exhausted. When I woke up, my wife called me for breakfast and I asked everyone about the glasses. No one knew anything. I told her about the mailman, the package, and nothing. I almost cried when I discovered that it was all just a dream.
