Listen to me. This will be easier if you understand and cooperate. You're a part of me... a manifestation of my subconscious. Doctor Solar was my favorite comic book character when I was a kid. I always wanted to be like him. I ended up more like him than I ever imagined. I even had a girlfriend named Gayle. Spelled differently, though. At first, I tried to use my power to help people -- like Doctor Solar -- but that doesn't work in real life. That's why you've got to go. No, hold still, relax, and let me reabsorb you.
