Hmm.. based on how Kat's acting she must think it's from one of the robots. Or I guess a random guy who she dislikes. Either way, really downplaying the whole thing.

Printout on green line paper for a dot matrix printer? Gotta be a robot. Of course, that's too obvious, so it won't be a robot...

It's from Annie, this explains the ancient paper (terrible with technology) and why it's "eloquently written". She just wanted to give Kat a self-esteem boost and with her somewhat terrible social skills thought this was a good way to do it, but Kat will find out and there will be horrible misunderstandings and things will go terribly wrong

Really though I would have thought a robot, but like said that might be a bit too obvious.

I just noticed Annie didn't assume that whoever wrote the letter was male.

Judging by Kat's reaction, she probably doesn't think they are.

Well if it isn't a robot, it might be somebody who needs help from a discreet robot to write a letter. Both Paz and Gamma don't speak english as their first language so it could be either of them. Or even a certain armless bird-boy, although I think that plot thread was wrapped up permanently.

Hello, yes! Is being very good day for posting, no?
No way, Robot is reverent when it comes to Kat; it's Shadow that he loves. Writing a love letter to Kat isn't consistent with anything he's done so far.

There's only a handful of characters that aren't romantically involved with someone. Annie, Kat (until now, I guess), Paz, Matt. Red and Blue. Reynardine? Other than minor robots or some unknown student there's not a lot of options out there.

According to most detective stories the person the reader isn't supposed to suspect is the person who probably committed or helped commit a crime. By that logic he'd be in the running for conspiring to steal Kat's heart.

So would every other character too. Should we suspect Donald Donlan?
