500 year half life ..... " what does that mean " asked Neiwil. Runsiman shrugged, " probably a 'best before' date " he said and he continued,
May contain nuts
WARNING: BE AWARE......" Be aware of what ?" asked Neiwil , again Runsiman shrugged and said " I don't know, the rest of the label has been ripped off, well I shouldn't worry it's probably nothing important .. Now! If you paint the entire surface of your contraption with this, it will increase it's structural strength by 75% while reducing it's weight by 80%. Just be sure and use it sparingly!", Neiwil thought he understood , saying " Pretty powerful stuff aye", Runsiman put him straight, " NO! BLOODY EXPENSIVE STUFF! and I'd like any you don't use returned ". He handed the tin to Neiwil who put it in his pocket, then pointing at the glass vile Neiwil enquired , " and that is ?" Runsiman replied, " Purple Pig Potion No9 ". Neiwil leaned closer and said, " but it's GREEN !" Runsiman was becoming agitated as he snapped, " IT'S PURPLE, it just appears green !", Neiwil asked " then why don't you call it the GREEN potion ?" Runsiman was boiling " ARE YOU MAD!!!, the green potion would turn your friend into a DOG !, do you WANT him to fly your contraption or just sit on the floor licking his own scrotum!!! ?" Neiwils answer came on swift wings, " The PURPLE potion it IS then !!" Runsiman then explained , " Once your friend drinks this, he will take on the physical appearance of a pig with the required gastric functions. He will retain his human intellect and all remaining physical qualities, this is only a temporary transmogrification, it should last about ninety minutes so timing is important. Now, be warned ! once he takes the potion, the transmogrification is instant and very DRAMATIC!, although when it wears off it is quite sedate and without problems. Just be sure, when he takes it, you're at a safe distance!" Neiwil was alarmed " What do you call a safe distance ?" he asked. Runsiman replied , " Well , when you leave here, I'm evacuating everybody to the basement for the duration !" The colour drained from Neiwils face, Runsiman laughed and said " just kidding , about twenty feet should do ". He handed the vile to Neiwil who placed it in his other pocket. As Neiwil prepared to leave, Runsiman wished him luck and escorted him to the gate. Several hours later Neiwil arrived back at the Inventorium to find Tailspin putting the final touches to the F-104B. " How did you get on ?" he asked. Neiwil held up the tin and the vile and declared " we're in business !", Tailspin looked at the items, asking " what's that ?". Holding each up in turn, Neiwil explained " You paint the entire F-104 with this, it makes it stronger and lighter, then you drink this and it turns you into a pig!". Tailspins reaction was instant and bordering on volcanic, leaping from the platform he raged!! " What?... Are you serious?.....Do you actually expect?....You think that I'm going to?....You HAVE to be joking right?......Are you seriously suggesting?". Neiwil was taken aback, throwing up his hands he tried to calm the madman before him " It's only temporary, you'll still be you, it's harmless, painless, you'll hardly notice !" he said reassuringly.. Tailspin calmed down and asked "WHAT!!?", Neiwil repeated " it's temporarary, painless". Tailspin looked confused " What is" he asked.Now Neiwil was confused, " The potion" he said, Tailspin waved his hand, " Oh! I'm not bothered about that!, sounds like fun, but if you think I'm painting THAT thing after you left me to build it on my own!, you can think again".... Neiwil smiled, they were in business..

AAAAGGGHHHHH!!!! I CAN'T WAIT for the next episodes! The suspense is too great! Where's my blood pressure medication?! "Thud!" T.Rex passes out on floor. Now, how to get him off the floor and into bed? A rather heavy story, that! Man, I LOVE that wood F-104b! I don't know which will be more exciting to see - the magic paint or the effects of the vial's contents on poor Tailspin. Er, is that how he got his name? Turnip juice and tail propulsion system? Keep it up, Neil. You've got me in stiches. I see old Runsiman didn't have a potion for a 6 in the rating system. Sigh. Can't win them all. :-)
