Milliways Office: Havelock-Andrew
Havelock slips up to the office with remarkable discretion, considering he has to cross the crowded bar to do so. The illogical Milliways shadows help, but mostly it's a matter of thinking yourself unnoticeable - which, in Havelock's opinion, he could always use some work on.
He hesitates, then knocks on the door to see if anyone is in there. He doesn't exactly want to post a note on the notice board, and delivering a letter through Bar does have the down side that whoever receives it will probably read it out in the open.
He could slip a note underneath, he supposes... but really, if possible, better not.

"He left the room willingly so I could talk openly about it to Nita," he says after a moment. "And he knew what we were about. I think he retains enough agency to help us in that way, so long as it is passive on his part."

He nibbles absently at the edge of one finger. "There's two things going on here," he says finally. "Stopping the vampire and getting Puck free of it. Those might have one combined solution, but they might not."
no subject
(The wax is black, but no emblem has been stamped into it.)
"Yes," he says. "As to finding another solution - I didn't know how much information Security already had about him, so I have described him and our encounter as best I can. Manner, voice, physical appearance, and all I can remember him saying. It might be useful to someone."

"As far as I know, my memory is unaffected," he adds, as a caveat. "But the possibility of details being missing is there, I suppose."
no subject
A beat. Andrew looks up at him.
"Were you bitten?"
no subject
He doesn't look pleased about it.
"And no, I wasn't. I don't think that is necessarily connected, as he could get into my mind perfectly well without doing so."
His self-control is back again, so he doesn't show any of the discomfort he feels about that.
But really, who wouldn't feel that?
no subject
(This may or may not have something to do with the fact that he works with a couple of vampires.)
"I don't know how the rest of Security feels about it, but I kinda feel like wiping someone's memory without consent should count as violence."
no subject
But Andrew is right. Havelock would have dealt better with blood-drinking.
"It should," he agrees quietly.

"I intend to ask a few others as well, but the more ideas the better."
no subject
"You want to try to find River Tam, or should I? Or -- do you know anybody else who can read minds?"
no subject
"I will find River if I can. If you see her first, however..."
Shrug.
no subject
He hasn't seen River in a while, but he'll look.
no subject
"Is there anything else I can tell you that you wish to know?"

Particularly of late.

He offers his hand.
no subject
"Thank you," he says.
