(Like I said, we're teammates.  As an empty nester, Opal is always looking for ways to stave off boredom, so Azzie and Violet keep their eyes peeled for problems like this one.)

"Why bother with Dust, dear, when you can... Aha!  Here it is!" Opal struggled to lift something onto a nearby table. On closer examination, it looked to be a small-ish artillery shell, but it had several more compartments than seemed normal.

"This is a type of shell that was made about thirty years ago, then discontinued.  The compartments are to carry two halves of what they call a binary chemical weapon.  They fire the shell, and the pressure breaks the seal between the ingredients.  The ingredients mix mid-flight, and by the time it hits a target, you're spraying sarin everywhere.  You wouldn't believe how many favors I had to pull just to find the empty shell." The mother smiled and knocked on the shell with a knuckle, making a light ringing sound.

"What you need is a similart concept.  Figure out a reactant for the acid mixture so that the whole affair is spontaneously reactive.  Then all you have to do is figure out a new dart design that holds the two chemicals side-by-side.  Fire it into the enemy and you'll be set, even if without any regular sort of help.  No Dust required."
