[Even compared to what else has happened since Mikumo has arrived, this feels eminently up her usual alley. She wishes she had access to something like her bugging robots from back home - literal bug-shaped bots she could leave in important areas to gather information - but she hadn't had them on her when she arrived, and she doubts they wouldn't have been taken off her even if she did.
So for now, it's the old fashioned way, which means manually moving around the vantage points surrounding the laboratory to photograph and film what's going on. While her inbuilt skills have been dampened down to something in the range of a regular human, that's still good enough to get where she wants to be, and she'll remain silently observing in the branches of trees for quite significant lengths of time until either someone lands on the same vantage point as her, or she moves down out of the tree and happens to spot another rebellion member on the way down.]
This part of the facility should be well covered by now, I was up there for quite a while. Which area did you come from? [She assumes they must be building up a decent network of information by now, but it can't hurt to cross-reference what makes it onto the network against the people who have covered certain areas for potential extra details.]
(ii. phase ii [network])
[Getting into the ventilation system isn't exactly easy, but Mikumo isn't particularly large and is still plenty flexible enough to get into a space like that. Not having access to her usual disguise tech means this is preferable to disguising as a guard, since while she has managed to tame her hair under a wrap, there's no guarantee that hair wraps are particularly common among guards in the facility. She might have to get hold of a wig before the next one of these missions.
Either way, as she crawls through the vents, photos of various rooms of the facility from above begin to come up on the intranet, sequential images from one room to the next, sometimes with a quick additional drawing or notes if it's difficult to get the full scope of the room in a photo. Some of them even have members of the rebellion who are infiltrating the facility in disguise visible in them, and after she starts noticing more people getting in, she sends out a text along with the images.]
If you see yourself in the most recent few images at all, you're welcome to message me to scout ahead on your route for you.
(iii. phase iii)
[As soon as the mapping is complete enough for people to reach the computer banks, Mikumo departs the vents into that room, entirely prepared to take point on copying the data. While she knows there's a decent number of people here who should have computer experience, she thinks this might be a little ahead of where some people have come from, so best to be sure.
Either way, it's not straightforward work when they keep getting interrupted by people stopping by the rooms for one reason or another, and as the sound of people coming down the outside hallway picks up again for the third time in what can't be more than ten minutes, Mikumo gives a quiet sigh and glances to the person next to her.]
I can go talk them back the way they came, but if you have a better idea for a diversion, I'll work with it. I'd rather be here if something else needs to be run.

[b: mission b] (i. phase iii - rescuing test subjects)
[Once the lab escape is done, Mikumo figures she may as well hook up with the tail end of the other mission, because another driver can't hurt considering how many vehicles they're probably going to need to be moving. But the movement of supplies comes first, and while Mikumo figures there are people better poised to do the heavy lifting part, she slips into the forces moving items between the trucks and starts moving ahead to check the contents of the ones that haven't been opened yet, just to ensure nobody's left a nasty surprise. She can't imagine this is the first time the rebellion has attacked a convoy, so it's not beyond expectations.
The nasty surprise she gets isn't the type she was thinking, though, and after opening the doors of one truck, she visibly pauses. While she's not heavily emotive about negative things a lot of the time, a subdued sort of disgust and what might even be anger crosses her face before she gestures to the nearest person who looks like they might be able to help out.]
We need to get these people out of their cages and onto another truck. The quicker the better.
(ii. phase iii - the ride home)
[Once supplies and people have been moved where they need to be, Mikumo takes the wheel of a loaded-up ATV, since she's more familiar with this type of vehicle than the trucks. While she keeps an eye on the departing vehicles, she's also keeping an eye out for anyone who looks like they don't have a ride back to the camp yet, because the last thing they need is anyone getting left behind who can't then find their way back.
If someone approaches her or catches her eye, she'll nod to the free seat in the ATV.]
If you're not planning to drive back yourself, then you may as well ride with me.
