Operation Midnight Glow

I had to investigate the green digital obelisk glowing on the bedside table. Standard spy protocol: no light switches allowed. I shimmied up the lamp cord, hopped onto the polished veneer, and crept straight toward the alarm clock. Its glowing digital numbers looked suspiciously like a countdown timer. Naturally, I couldn't just walk away. I backed up two paces, sprinted forward, and hurled my entire plastic weight onto the oversized snooze bar on top. Click! The green face abruptly flooded with blinding neon blue backlight, casting my heroic silhouette across the entire wall like a noir movie poster. Threat neutralized, vibe established.
