PARALLAX:  Mom, me and Sinestro are going to go play down at the forbidden core, Okay?
PARALLAX’S  MOTHER:  Okay dear, but don’t go anywhere else and don’t go too close  to the sun.  I know you think it’s a great time and all, but an all  powerful, fear consuming entity of your um,...well...you know what the  doctor said about your...size.
PARALLAX:  Ahhh, Mom. Stop worrying all the time.  I’m almost 250 million years old.  I can take care of myself.
PARALLAX’S  MOTHER:  I only worry because I love you, Parallax.   You know, it’s  all fun and games until someone gets burned... and reduced to atomic  particles by a nuclear furnace of planet sustaining energy.  How much  fun would you be having then, when you’re nothing more than the energy  powering some hippy’s solar powered NPR radio he got when he donated  $250 during last springs pledge drive?  Is that what you want?
PARALLAX:  No, Mother.
PARALLAX'S MOTHER: Good. Now go and play and don’t be  late for lunch.  I’m making your favorite, Fear Energy Soup with those  goldfish crackers.
PARALLAX:  Ok. Thanks mom. See ya!
