Hi guys! I know at this time of year we're all ❤️lookin' for love❤️, and I hate to be the Valentine's Grinch, but please be mindful of any notes you receive. If your Valentine is asking you to meet them somewhere isolated, alone, or if what they're saying seems out of character for them, or if something just seems weird it may be best to ignore it! Consider talking to your prefect about it.

And, hey, on the flip side, if you're planning on clowning on someone this February? Don't toy with people's hearts.

[Student Authority]

The Gooseberry Tradition of sending fake love letters endures another year, but asking two random people to meet each other in an isolated place is for sure breakin' them Buddy System rules. So, keep an eye on your cabins, everyone. If someone's got hearts in their eyes suddenly, just make sure they're still taking proper precautions.

And if any of you know who might be penning the fake notes, I'd appreciate a tip.

Damn. I knew I should've expanded my skillset more over the summer.

That's not a bad idea. If we can get one of the fake notes. I'd've just burnt mine for sure.

I'm [...] Decent.

Student Authority

[cygninae]

Well shit.

Don't think any of my roommates would go for it. But I'll keep an eye out.

Student Authority

[heyitsnia]

Yeah I think your boys are good. How do you think your underclassmen will be. Anyone particularly susceptible to the promise of romance?

Student Authority

[cygninae]

Casey's little sister maybe? Todd?

[wholegrain]

hey if any of them starts acting weird or sad or kind of heartbroken and don't want to explain
you can send them to me!!

Student Authority

[cygninae]

How do I tell? They just act pissed whenever they feel anything.

[destructobot]

Valentine's Grinch is a position of necessity and honor, Nia.

[heyitsnia]

I'm going to steal all the candy and flowers. And my heart will absolutely not grow even one size.

[...] Are you doing We're going to nip this in this in the bud.

[destructobot]

It's what the people want.

Cool. Let me know if I can help.

[addytives]

Awww there go all my plans.

[heyitsnia]

I'm strong. I can take whatever you dish out at me.

[addytives]

But could I like, lure you to a shady location?

Student Authority

[salem_wagonblast]

I'll make sure my cabin is aware and doesn't go wandering off alone because of note. They aren't really the type to do that though. Wander off maybe but not because of a

Student Authority

[heyitsnia]

Yeah. Something tells me you boys aren't terribly swayed by anonymous love notes.

Student Authority

[salem_wagonblast]

They're all huge romantics, Nia, it's a struggle to keep them from running around professing their love to everyone they inevitably fall for.

Student Authority

Oh no! Again? I'll keep my ears open.

[ROSY & NIA]
I need advice.

JD/Nia/Rosy

[browbeats]

I can't advise sending fake love letters, but other than that I'll see what I can do.

JD/Nia/Rosy

[electable]

Oh gosh! I wouldn't even send real love letters.

Mads and Ruby aren't talking to each other.

Student Authority

I'll reinforce the necessity of the buddy system.

Maybe we could do some analysis of the ink itself. At the very least, whether it was done in pen or quill might lend some clues.

Student Authority

[heyitsnia]

Thank you. Having to go with a buddy should discourage people from pursuing potentially dangerous fake trysts.

Hmm. That's not a bad idea. If I can get one of those letters, is that something you could do?
