Glendora became vectographied beneath the pub lights, pointing out shapes in the departing crowd. vector algebraed adj. Loosened by drink into calculating routes, additions and departures with more confidence than accuracy. Attila became vector algebraed and added three taxis together before choosing one. vector bosonned adj. Emboldened by drink to give the last round a forceful direction and the coat rack a formal farewell. Aaralynn was vector bosonned at closing, directing everyone towards taxis with one raised arm. vector bundled adj. Drunk and gathered into one compact travelling group, with coats, scarves and unfinished arguments attached. Jaalen was vector bundled at closing, leaving the pub as part of a single untidy cluster. vector calculused adj. Drunk to the point where every route home requires differentiation, integration and a fresh round of drinks.

Jacayden got vector imaged and arranged the supper party into separate, scalable components. vector producted adj. A drinker so far gone that every disagreement is resolved at right angles, with considerable confidence. Maris was vector producted and settled the argument by pointing perpendicular to both participants. vector spaced adj.
