'''Catalyst:''' Signal Jam. The Angel was sent to act as a switchboard, relaying messages from the God Machine to humanity. In this way, it shaped the information released, hiding Truths that were meant to be hidden, releasing Lies that needed to be told, shaping society with subtle missives, and relaying secret words to those in the know. But one day, it was given messages that directly contradicted each other. It was, simultaneously, told to reveal and obscure the same bits of information. In a screeching, terrible flash of insight and jagged mental paradox, the Angel tore free from its feedline, trying to make the feedback stop.

There's a barista who works the graveyard shift on my way home from my show. She caught me using my powers once, I think; she's been watching me out of the corner of her eye when I stop in for a midnight latte. But what can I do? Erika needs her lattes.

'''The Case of the Dream Haunter'''
 +
 +
Valerie Yasmine was a university professor specializing in neuroscience. When she began suffering from constant nightmares and episodes of sleep paralysis, she became concerned but chalked it up to overwork. When she began suffering hallucinations and delusions, she called a psychiatrist and began researching late onset schizophrenia. When she coughed up a lungful of car parts... She started looking further afield.

The gang (Yellowjacket Greenapple Investigations?) eventually tracked down the Infrastructure causing the transformations --a device(egg/coccoon/larva?) built into the water tower of her apartment building. Before they could determine its function, the device self-destructed, leaving no answers, but halting whatever bizarre metamorphosis was affecting Professor Yasmine.
