Ow.

Because Suzie (from our perspective) did die relatively unmourned, rejected, dishonored and forgotten, understandable in a murderous suicide, but that's not all she was, that's not all anyone is.

Faster than the cleanup in London, to be certain, but no less ruthless. No less thorough.

And of course, who else does clean-up but Ianto? And Suzie had a habit of noticing things other people didn't, sneaking around where other people didn't bother to look, so it makes sense she'd see more, interact more, with Ianto, in an effort to keep her own secrets... but also because she had to have been very lonely too, in her quietly maniacal and obsessed way. You notice other people who are lonely around you.

Love the use of the poetry as a recurring theme for the secrets everyone is keeping, from the simple (Ianto and Suzie's friendship) to the complex.

I'm glad Ianto found a better answer in poetry than Suzie did.
