Ignoring the local variants for better or worse, I consulted the village

I really, really liked Jim's instant def. Since that doesn't appear here,
I'll give points to the authors of
8> Descriptive of the arrangement of metal atoms in some liquids, e.g.
calcium in milk.
and
10> Intersecting at a single point; tangent.
