"Sure, I've got time." Really, Hal would make time if anyone needed advice on these things, because he hadn't forgotten his own rookie days and how much he'd tripped on the learning curve. Lantern rings were ridiculously powerful, and the less people stumbled with them, the better.

"So, I'm not sure what determines how much the violet rings affect mental state, but it seems to be a mixed bag. I've seen Sapphires who were like completely different people after they got their rings. I've also seen Sapphires who didn't change much at all. But if you're asking this at all, you're clearly still thinking pretty straight, so just remember that the ring doesn't have to be the boss. Love's volatile, it gets the better of some people - but not everybody."
