[[Backdated to shortly after Sark went missing.]]Suzie's got her laptop, a handful of carefully-selected CCTV images, and a Plan. Well, sort of a Plan. It's really more like desperation, which she doesn't much care for in principle

Tosh is, unsurprisingly, in her room, working on something on her laptop. But the door's open, and she's positioned where she can see right away if anyone stops by, so chances are she wouldn't mind interruptions too much...

Though this particular interruption might need a bit of justification.

"Toshiko?" Suzie pokes her head around the edge of the door. The seeming formality isn't, really -- Suzie's always been fond of Tosh's name, and maintains the habit of using the short form largely because 'Tosh' is easier to yell in an emergency.

She moves into the doorway, and there's a moment when her shoulders start to slump slightly, where she comes close to betraying her uncertainty, but then she reminds herself why she's here and straightens up again. Tosh isn't in danger of death or grievous bodily harm right now. Julian, on the other hand...

"Can you stand to be interrupted?"

Tosh looks up sharply, already starting to smile a little, and swivels away from her laptop. "Of course. What do you need?" Not that Suzie needs a reason to come to her, but she recognizes the signs of Suzie with a problem she needs Tosh to help with.

Suzie smiles back when Tosh does, but the expression quickly fades. This isn't going to be terribly fun for either of them.

"Some help with the CCTV systems," she says, "and possibly a look at those wrist-straps. But before you say anything, here's where I've got to be honest," Suzie tells her. "The person I'm hoping to track down might just rank near the top of the list of your least favourite human beings. I can't make you help me on this, but can I at least ask you to hear me out?"
