This is the pared-down version of the Suzie playlist I developed RPing on LJ, now tweaked to be compliant with Torchwood S1 canon, instead of its earlier pre-canon state.

Yes, I am slightly obsessive when it comes to character playlists.

You don't know me, but J's a friend someone I care my old boss

Oh, to hell with this. I know J. You're important to him & considering he sent Mac to look for you during the plagues, you're also a shapeshifter, which might be relevant.

He's a dog right now, & he's not at all rational. Reads me as a threat, same for Mac, though she's trying to keep him from being stupid anyway.

I think he might pay attention to you if you tried to get through to him.

I know the latest post on the journal network is probably making you want to dismember things right now.

It's doing the same to me, for reasons... Well, I've explained them to your subconscious, but not to you directly. I'd say it's a fun little story, but really, it's anything but.

Gwen knows the details, but if she's sympathetic and understanding or asks me if I'm all right I might stab her with something, and that's a habit that won't have ended well for me one timeline over, so best to skip it entirely.

All of which is a long-winded way of asking if you can spare the emotional energy to talk.

Over the journals is fine.

[[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.

Julian is missing. She intends to find him. But to do that, she'll need some help. Thus, she's looking for Tosh.

And won't explaining this be fun?

Black Rook in Rainy Weather

On the stiff twig up there
Hunches a wet black rook
Arranging and rearranging its feathers in the rain-
I do not expect a miracle
Or an accident

To set the sight on fire
In my eye, nor seek
Any more in the desultory weather some design,
But let spotted leaves fall as they fall
Without ceremony, or portent.

Although, I admit, I desire,
Occasionally, some backtalk
From the mute sky, I can't honestly complain:
A certain minor light may still
Lean incandescent

Out of kitchen table or chair
As if a celestial burning took
Possession of the most obtuse objects now and then --
Thus hallowing an interval
Otherwise inconsequent

By bestowing largesse, honor
One might say love. At any rate, I now walk
Wary (for it could happen
Even in this dull, ruinous landscape); sceptical
Yet politic, ignorant

Of whatever angel any choose to flare
Suddenly at my elbow. I only know that a rook
Ordering its black feathers can so shine
As to seize my senses, haul
My eyelids up, and grant

A brief respite from fear
Of total neutrality. With luck,
Trekking stubborn through this season
Of fatigue, I shall
Patch together a content

Of sorts. Miracles occur.
If you care to call those spasmodic
Tricks of radiance
Miracles. The wait's begun again,
The long wait for the angel,

For that rare, random descent.

-- Sylvia Plath

I heard about what happened.

I can't imagine what you must be going through right now, but if you need anything...

Just let me know, all right?

Take care of yourself.

It looks like the most recent plague is affecting shapeshifters -- they get stuck in one form and fall ill. Considering the Biblical version killed off a good portion of the livestock, if you know any shapeshifters, this would be a very good time to find them and make sure they're receiving some form of medical care.

[Locked to Kashtta residents]

I'm looking for Luke. I don't know both of his shifter forms, but one of them's a kitten, so if you find that kitten or any other animal you don't recognise, please get him to either Juliet or Owen and then let me know you've found him.

Juliet, Owen, sorry for volunteering you, but for all that neither of you is trained in veterinary medicine, we don't have someone that is, so you're the next best thing.

[Locked to Julian Sark]

THIS IS WHY YOU GIVE YOUR FRIENDS THE ADDRESS OF YOUR FLAT.


Remember what I said, Julian. If you die first, I will be VERY PISSED OFF.

Please just let me know you're all right. I know you're not in a form that can WRITE today, but please, when you get through this, LET ME KNOW.

Julian...

I was quite happily agnostic before this started, but the universe does have its sense of humour. First a Stephen King version of the Devil, and now this...

If you're familiar with the Plagues of Egypt, well, this shouldn't need much explanation.

I haven't seen you for a while. Are you all right? I don't suppose you have any older siblings you haven't mentioned?

[Locked to Gwen and Sam]

I ran into Time Agent 462O1 (currently Jason Randall) today. I still don't consider him a threat, even in the face of extreme emotional stress, which he & I were both subjected to.

He was, however, in the general area of the Kashtta. I recommend keeping a close watch on the area, in case there are any further signs of trouble. While my personal estimation remains unchanged, I don't think any of us want to risk the possibility that I may be wrong.

Currently, he seems v. conflicted, torn between the impulses and modes of behaviour associated with John Thane, and those of Jack Harkness. This is causing a great deal of emotional distress, as neither identity fits, & both are @ odds w/ each other when it comes to interacting w/ us, or the world in general.

I suspect part of him wants to make contact w/ us, as all the previous emotional baggage is still there, but he's prevented from doing so by the conviction that we would try to push him back into the role of Jack Harkness, which he quite emphatically doesn't want. I gave him the option to walk away or to talk, & he chose to stay & talk w/ me for some time, before the situation became emotionally volatile & we went our separate ways.

He appears to be a shapeshifter now, poss. related to the changes in Rift alterations which happened some time ago. I'm not sure of his forms: he went part way into the shift & then was talked back down.

Also learnt that he's the one who sent Luke our way -- Luke recognised him as Jack, &, unable to help him (& obv. feeling some distress over encountering expectations based on his prev. identity), he sent him to us, & seemed genuinely concerned when asking after him.

Julian, I

Could you come by my room?

I think I need

I'd appreciate it.

Today or this noon
She dwelt so close
I almost touched her —
Tonight she lies
Past neighborhood
And bough and steeple,
Now past surmise.

Tosh will admit they were friends. Suzie... might admit to more, assuming she trusts the person asking.

And then Suzie went mad.

Unsurprisingly, the relationship didn't survive.
