Panel 2
Locations:
  Infinite Monkey Dimension (The Fleshfields)  
Props:
  Body Part(s) (Infinite Monkey)  
Characters:
1: Fineas: Where the hell did it come from? Was there a normal sphinx here before the nukes went off?

Panel 3
Locations:
  Infinite Monkey Dimension (The Fleshfields)  
Props:
Characters:
1: One Death: We live in an artificial multiverse. Information is the only thing that's real. What we call 'reality' is the illusion. What you see and hear is the interpretation of data, math made comprehensible to the eyes and ears.
Panel 4
Locations:
  Infinite Monkey Dimension (The Fleshfields)  
Props:
  Body Part(s) (Infinite Monkey)  
Characters:
1: One Death: Every elemental particle is a piece of data, a unique object with set metaproperties and qualities that describes it. If a hadron and a gluon collide, those numbers are going to predict how they interact. You just plug them into the proper equation. Those equations scale as the number of particles you're describing increases, which is why marijuana addicts are always blathering on about the solar system and its resemblance to an atom in the toe of a giant turtle all the time. A nuclear sphinx is just one of the possible mathematical outcomes of a fusion event. Usually they're really tiny and no one notices them. Big ones are rare.
2: Fineas: Then how come there aren't a bunch of nuclear sphinxes living under the Nevada desert?
3: One Death: Who says there aren't?
