Toshiko Sato sat on her couch clicking through the images on her laptop, impressed by the pictures that Gertrude and Olivia had procured of her best friend on his date. She edited them, cleaning them and placing them in the digital picture album that she had been creating. A part of her chided the use of spies to gather these pictures, but the ends justified the means. She went to save her edits, before a message flashed across her screen.
Anonymous: I have a picture for your collection Miss Sato.
TechSato: Who are you, how do you know about that?
Anonymous: I hacked your computer for some other information.
TechSato: Captain John Hart I presume.
Anonymous: Pretty and smart. You caught me. I was simply admiring your collection, it is very large.
Tosh felt her cheeks warm. She had been collecting pictures of the Torchwood team since she had joined; building a massive digital scrapbook. Lately is had become more of a collection of pictures of the HUB's favorite couple.
TechSato: That picture Hart. What of?
Anonymous: Eye Candy.
TechSato: I have enough of him thank you.
Anonymous: You'll want this one.
TechSato: Why? And what do you care about my album? What do you get out of this?
Anonymous: So cynical. I thought that when you show Eye Candy this well…
TechSato: The picture?
Anonymous: [File attached]
Tosh opened the file a blush crossing her face at the image before her. Ianto stood, arm above his head as he leaned against a darkened door frame. His hair was curled, and she could tell, slightly damp. The red silk pajamas he was wearing clung to every inch of his body, the shirt not quite touching the bottom.
TechSato: Where did you get this?
Anonymous: I took it.
TechSato: How? When?
Anonymous: The night before you guys caught him. And with my phone. I couldn't bare to pass an opportunity for a picture like that.
TechSato: So I ask again, why are you sharing it?
Anonymous: So when Ianto looks back on these pictures, he remembers me. So when Jack sees this, it reminds him of exactly what he doesn't give his lover.
TechSato: Thank you.
Anonymous: Thank you? That's a new one. Good god, I was with Ianto for not even 2 days, and I'm already kinder. That's it. I'm gone.

Tosh saved the image to the album, before pausing. This really is too good not to share. The technician emailed the picture to Owen, Gwen, and Jack, offering a silent apology to the Welshman the file contained.
