A strange card arrives for Doolittle. It's a mostly undecorated square of cardstock with an awfully large grease stain in it - probably bacon grease, judging by the smell. On one side, there's a crayon drawing of Doolittle with some red and pink hearts over his head, and on the other, it says GOOD BOY!, also in red crayon. ----------  An interesting show of admiration, as well as a harmless prank. I've been licking this card all morning and it's been difficult to do any work.
Touché, my secret admirer.

A manila envelope arrives on the desk of Dean Spektor, neatly tied and without any sort of exterior writing. Opening it up and pouring out the contents reveals a small note and a portrait done in graphite of the dean. The note reads "A little something for someone magnificently magnetic." The portrait is lovey, exquisitely detailed and well done, but it begs the question - where exactly did the artist get the references for it...? ----------  "I think it's about time we upgraded our security system."

The card lying on Nighshade's desk might be the strangest combination of cute and macabre ever seen. Dominated by the colors black, purple, and a few highlights of white and gold, the whole thing is absolutely drenched in glitter, and around the edges are cutesy bats and skulls. In the center of the whole affair is a ghost holding up a heart, the words below reading "Will you be my boo?" in bright gold ink. There's no signature, but it's the thought that counts. ----------  "Absolutely boo-tiful. Too bad there's no way for me to trace the aura on this to its sender with Psychometry. That would really take the mystery out of this whole secret, wouldn't it?"

In Mona's office someone has set up a heart shaped wireless speaker on her desk, this song playing on an endless loop. There's no visible off switch... and no way to get to the batteries. ----------  "If it gets annoying I can always set it on fire. Until then, I'm gonna put it in Faust's desk and see what he does."

There is no note on Professor Faust's desk, just a drawing with no name or identifier past the rather...childish scrawl that makes up the artwork:----------  He looks down at the picture on his desk and gives a long exhale.
It is then held up on the side of his filing cabinet with a magnet.

A very eccentric note lays atop Mona's desk, drawn in colored pencils and covered in various kinds of glitter. Two letters can be made out in the bottom left hand corner of the picture, despite the red pencil haphazardly scratched on top of them. "M.B." Why would the artist behind this note sign their work just to cross it out? The world may never know... ---------- "Trying to be sneaky, little MB? You're not getting away from my high-five."

Waiting for Instructor Faust next to the very charming portrait of him cavorting under a rainbow with his buddy, Mr. Cool Shades Sun, was a potted plant - a venus fly trap, specifically.
With googly eyes placed strategically.
The note stuck into its mouth was written on clearly feminine stationary, yellow with an orange flower pattern around the edges, but the contents were straightforward: a list of care instructions for a venus fly trap, written in a very neat script. The contents of the note became somewhat less.. professional as the care instructions gave way to a more heartfelt plea to "please take loving care of Pierogi as he very much wants to live with you now."
Followed by a slightly messier postscript with a word scratched out, "You have trapped my his heart!"---------- He takes a long sip of coffee while staring Pierogi's googly eyes down.
The nearest pen on Instructor Faust's desk is plucked up with telekinesis and scrawls a simple note on a scrap of paper: Have Hugh collect insects for the flytrap.

A single piece of paper made its way to Doolittle. There was one streaky image printed hastily off of an office printer whose ink was starting to run low, glued to a piece of yellow stationary with an orange floral border. Written below them in a mock-messy style was: "TO DOOLITTLE, FROM CASIMIR". Too bad his master did not realize that a .gif is less impressive when it is not moving.---------- Fear not, young kohai -- it would be a disservice not to notice you.

The note is simply typed on a plain white sheet of paper, folded perfectly into a pristine business envelope and set precisely in the center of the desk. The front reads simply: Professor Sinclair
Inside is typed this message:
Professor Sinclair,
I simply must write this to you to express my sheer, overwhelming admiration for everything you do. It is an honor and a thrill to simply walk the same halls as you and stand where you have stood.
GG---------- "Jeez, Angel, you sure know how to flatter a girl.
There's way more qualified agents for this sort of thing, though, you sure you got the right one?"

There is a carefully placed note on top of Professor Faust's desk.
 :>---------- Instructor Faust runs a hand slowly down his face.
He hangs it up neatly on his filing cabinet with a magnet next to a few other drawings.

A small piece of crumpled paper slipped in under Hugh Monroe's door, with uneven and wobbly writing of 'TANK YUMMY' in black marker, signed T.W. Which most likely meant "thanks for the yummy food".---------- Though the note was a little hard to decipher, once Hugh managed he couldn't help but smile. Someone would find a little heart-shape in their mashed potatoes filled with gravy next time they were served.
