[Delivery for Hunter! She's agreed to meet him at the local park, and she's given a decent enough description of herself so he can easily find her - she's carrying a small box... but it suspiciously looks a little too big to be for (1) bird scarf.]
[A normal person would have given her their address without a second thought, so she can come over and drop the scarf off.
Hunter is not a normal person.
He figures it's just safer this way. He's used to living in the Emperor's castle, a place with so much controlled access that only very specific people are allowed into. He is not used to a tiny studio provided by a sketchy capitalistic organization. It's weird, the whole situation is weird and makes him uncomfortable, and he doesn't want the added vulnerability of more people than absolutely necessary knowing where he lives. So park it is!
He's already there on a bench, reading some book on Earth history that he's managed to acquire from Zodiac. The bird is perched on a tree branch above him, and when Rascal sees Mirabel he lets out a happy chirp in greeting, causing Hunter to look up.
He immediately looks suspicious at the box.]
That's a lot for a tiny scarf.

Maybe I ran out of tiny boxes.
[She didn't, but she hands the box over. There's a tiny, yellow bird scarf as promised - very soft and fluffy and will definitely keep a small bird warm. But there's something else fluffy in the box too.
Another yellow scarf, a human-sized one. Since she doesn't know Hunter's name, it doesn't have his name on it like she did with her family members, but there is a cardinal embroidered onto it.]

[Well, the bird scarf isn't a surprise or anything. It looks really nice, and should hopefully do exactly what it's supposed to do - keep one tiny bird warm!
Except he's looking confused as he takes it out of the box and focuses on the other scarf. The human-sized one. He's setting Rascal's scarf aside so he can pick that one up.]
I... didn't ask you to make this.

No, you didn't. But we all gotta stay warm, don't we?
[One scarf for a little bird, and one scarf for a human who cares about that bird.]

[Hunter is just. Taking a few moments to process this.]
[... Well, it's a well-made scarf, and it is pretty cold out. The colour is nice and even though he will never, ever say it out loud the cardinal on it is kind of cute.
He takes another moment to straighten his expression out and try to not look as confused.]
Alright, since you've already gone and made it. How much do I owe you?
[Rascal, meanwhile, is going to flutter down from the tree branch and onto Hunter's shoulder.]

[Mirabel was told that she needed to charge for her products, and she will - but she did this before that conversation took place, so...]
No charge. I do this kind of thing for fun and practice. Consider it a gift.
No charge. I do this kind of thing for fun and practice. Consider it a gift.
What? Nooo no no, I can't just accept this for free.
[She clearly put a lot of effort into it!]
I need to pay you. Or trade something, if you don't want money.
[She clearly put a lot of effort into it!]

I don't want anything, really! I told you, I do these for fun. Charging for them would take the fun out of it.
[Even if her family insists on her charging for them, and she will... eventually.]

[Hunter looks a bit put off by this. He isn't used to accepting things from people, especially things he didn't ask for. But what's he supposed to do, just not accept it? She's obviously put a lot of work into it, and it's really nice.]
I don't see how it would. This is just asking for people to take advantage of you.
[He gives an exasperates sigh, though.]
But fine. I'll still take them, even if you really don't want anything in return. [In fact, he's going to go ahead and put the tiny bird scarf on Rascal, who chirps happily. His cuteness ratio is increasing!]

[Mirabel wasn’t sure who to call for help, but she has a split second decision to make.
That decision ends up being Hunter.]
HELP
FIGHTING A HUGE DRAGON
SISTER IS HURT
WE NEED HELP

[When he gets the text it's late at night in Kaisou. He's been busy doing research on Celtic mythology and fairy lore in the human realm, and since he's been at it all night he's kiiind of sort of passed out at his desk.]
[Luckily, his phone going off wakes him up! He flails a little, sending some papers scattering to the floor, but when he realizes it's only his phone he calms down and takes a look. Getting texts at this hour is weird, so he's very confused.]
[What the fuck, Mirabel.
What the fuck.
He's hauling himself to his feet, grabbing his cloak and Rascal, texting at the same time.]
Where are you?? Why are you fighting a dragon???
[What the fuck is this family, seriously.]

The mountain path past the bog! I'm not fighting Luisa is but she's hurt bad and I can't fight a dragon!!
[Meet the Disaster Madrigals, Hunter.]
[Meet the Disaster Madrigals, Hunter.]
[Why is Luisa fighting a dragon? Why is the human fighting a dragon??
He's just going to hold off on asking that for now, there are more important things to deal with. He heads out of his apartment, towards the portal to the fae realm.]
I'm on my way. Get her out of there, if you can.

[She can't, that's the problem. She's too hurt. Mirabel's not strong enough to carry her away or do anything remotely helpful.]
Please hurry.
Please hurry.
[He heads out there. of course, when he finally gets there, he won't find Mirabel or Luisa, leaving him confused and more than a little frustrated.]

Hey, so
A change with that telekinesis did end up happening
I'm still not sure how I'm doing it, but it's gotten stronger, I think

[Oh, well, this is interesting to hear!]
Stronger? Stronger how? When did this happen?
Stronger? Stronger how? When did this happen?
I noticed it sometime after the people who got abducted were returned, but
Well, it's not much but I can move larger things now. Not much larger, but as long as it can reasonably fit into my hand, I can move it

I see. Were you abducted? Did you have any contact with the fairies, or enter their realm?
Can you send me a video of it?

Hey Hunter, I hope you're enjoying your spring break!
I just wanted to thank you. I figured out a potion that's been helping with the curse, but I wouldn't have been able to do it without your advice.
So thank you. I really appreciate it.

I'm doing what I can to keep busy. I've already finished the extra credit homework I asked for, and I've taken additional assignments from Zodiac that should help them. Whoever decided students need this much time off must think we're either soft or lazy.
[He can't wrap his head around it. This is way, way, waaaaay too much free time for his liking.]
It did? I'm surprised you were able to make something with how limited potion ingredients here are.
