Meet the Chemiballs: the Postal Post Transition Metals
The post transition metals are pretty much what they say on the tin. No, these aren’t post-op transgender metals, they’re the metals that come after the transition metals on the periodic table!
Gallumball has a very low melting point (you can melt it with bodyheat), and molten gallumblob has similar properties to mercuryblob but isn't poisonous!
