How do things progress?
Not well. Not well at all
I think I stood there for a solid 2 minutes.
2 minutes of my finger poking into Wonder Woman's chest.
2 minutes of me being frozen in place, the only part of me moving my heaving chest.
When my mind finally rebooted, and stopped blue-screening, I did the smart thing.
I jumped out of my damn skin, fell on my butt, and crawled away backwards from the (literal) amazon in front of me.
For a moment she stared at me, with the same bored look as before.
Then, as if everything I had done was completely normal, she turned the opposite direction, and walked away. I didn't have the energy to stop her.
What had just happened?
Finally getting up from my butt, I manage to stumble over to the abandoned sticker sheet, and for the first time, I really look at it.
'Lamron' Was printed innocuously on the front of each sticker. The back side consisted of a blank whiteness, and no other distinguishing features were present of the paper.
For a moment, I wondered if I was dreaming, but I realized that if this was a dream, I'd probably have reacted with a little more elegance when Wonder Woman caught me off guard.
What did this all mean? Wait.
Suddenly, my thought from earlier came back to me.
"As if everything I had done was completely normal,"
As if everything I had done was normal...
That had to be it. These were, as silly as it sounded, normal stickers! Man I've heard of memes about normal pills but this is ridiculous...
It seemed like whoever these stickers were placed on would find everything around them completely normal. Jesus, how overpowered was that? Why were these even made?
Wait.. that crash earlier, while I was taking a shit. These must have been a part of some cargo, and gotten knocked out of a box outside the restroom.
Where did they come from then? The Justice League would never make this, taking away peoples freedoms? That would be against everything they stand for.
It must be some kind of villain super-weapon! That must be it! They must have foiled some villain who was using these, and were transporting them to a secure vault.
It all made sense now.
I know what I have to do, I have to turn these in to someone immediately.
As if sensing my thoughts, suddenly Zatanna Zatara herself turned the corner, and started walking toward me.
"Hey kid. Shouldn't you be with the rest of the tourists? Whatever, not my problem." Zatanna said, giving me a weird look. "Say, have you seen a piece of paper around here? I think I dropped it earlier."
Zatanna then began to glance around the hallway, obviously looking for the stickers. This was my chance!
"Yeah, I noticed it on the floor, I have it right here." I said, giving a relieved grin. "I was gonna go find someone to give them too." Zatanna looked over at me, and spotted the stickers in my hands.
"Ah, perfect. Good thing too, those are pretty dangerous." She said, rubbing the back of her head sheepishly.
"Yeah, I figured they were some kind of supervillain weapon, because of the whole mind control thing." I replied, stepping forward to hand them over.
"Supervillain? No, I made those, they're designed for the League to use." She said, giving me a weird look. "Wait a minute, how did you know they used mind control... and why is one of the stickers missing?"
How do you react?

The Stolen Device
Somebody invented mind control, and somebody else stole it.
In some universe, somewhere, some-when, someone invented mind control. Then left it laying around for any old person to take. Our protagonist stumbles across it, swipes it, then predictably abuses it. Who made it? Who took it? Who do they fuck with it? It's all up to you. No universe, established or original is off limits.
