The Well-Dressed Albatross and Ifny chatted sporadically over the course of the long flight. Ifny had little patience with First World problems.

How I came to write Pim
People often ask how I came to write Pim. It seems like a thousand years since I discovered Pim, or that Pim
discovered me. Thankfully I kept detailed notes and saved photos from that time. While I can’t swear to the
absolute accuracy of what you are about to read, I have done my best to capture the essence of how Pim entered my life.
As fate would have it, Ifny sat next to the Well-Dressed Albatross on her flight to Osaka.
Ifny then went and had her DNA tested.
In the back recesses of Ifny’s mind fell ever darkening drops of resentment that accumulated into a pool of hate and made her bite Meg and Peg. This left them infected and sore.
Incarnate, Ifny walked around Meg and Peg and spoke to them.
Giving them no useful answers (and costing them a fortune in ‘refreshments’) Meg and Peg released the WDA and took the brain to their lab to be installed in the body they’d made for it, naming their creation Ifny, after a great aunt they despised.
On arriving in Osaka, Slim made inquiries at a downtown noodle counter.
Meanwhile, Slim had headed to Gatwick, slipping into a wheel-well of the Lear 60 in advance of its return to Osaka.
Meg and Peg returned. Skeptical about the WDA’s integrity they sat with him over refreshments, thinking that in an unguarded moment he’d reveal ulterior motives.
What he didn’t know was that Meg and Peg had joined forces with Slim, who had remained at headquarters having suspected a tactic like this.
