[UA] More Random Thingies

[James McGraw]

A cartographer and a pack of psychic-powered hackers fall asleep.
   Edward Donaldson, last of the terminomancers, is kidnapped by the Information Liberation Front, a group of hacker anarchists with an inkling of the existence of Algorithmancy/Anarchmancy, as they have found out about his "mystic powers", and want to learn them. Fortunately, Isabella Reeks, his hypnomacer friend, has divined this event (using rituals) and uses magick to make them fall asleep, saving Edward, and coincidentally putting him in her debt
 .
An advertising agent and a Girl Scout struggle for survival in prison.
   Avatars of the Demagogue and the Virgin share an oubliette after crossing the TOSG, and are left for weeks without food and water. They eventually find the Multi-Coloured Jumper of Ultimate Puissance, and fuse into a supreme being, who then changes his name to Richard Branson (ho, ho!)

The itinerant brother-in-law of a philosopher faces his arch enemy, a fisherman.
    The Fisher King of Kentish Town, operating from his 2nd-hand electrical goods shop, is confronted by Harvey Jones, avatar of the Pilgrim and brother of Elizabeth Patterson, the wife of the occult researcher who's house he caused to burn down all those years ago.

Sorry.
