Mulan does not exactly encourage belief in "luck" or "praying to the ancestors."

Every time Cri-Kee is referred to as "lucky" he's in an extremely unlucky situation, it's more like he's "lucky to have survived."

The Ancestors don't help Mulan at the Matchmaker, the Great Stone Dragon basically never existed (Mushu rang that gong plenty of times before breaking the statue, no spirit came out of there) and the Ancestors were totally wrong about how to help Mulan anyway. They're not holy, enlightened, or wise, they're bickering worse than Mulan's living, mortal family.

What is encouraged is selflessness and self-sacrificing driving discipline which creates strength...none of which is necessary to make you "worthwhile," because your dad already loves you, you can't earn love.

So he definitely lost his, but he still has that Project H board.

He could easily look at it and find out that fairies exist again. I mean, all he has to do is erase the layer of blue that Dev put there. Or simply read it, it's still quite legible.

Except maybe this time, I think he'll try honing in on Cosmo and Wanda since it states that they "are magic".

With this in mind, my prediction is that he'll team up with a type of paranormal researcher to get to the bottom of it.

But the there's actually two he can pick from: Mr. Wells (Hazel's dad) and Mr. Crocker.

There's a lot of potential to be had with both of them.

Mr. Crocker may be seen as a bit of a loon, but he has an actual history of hunting fairies specifically.

Mr. Wells may be more credible and smarter, but he may have better equipment from being a trusted paranormal researcher.

(Also Dale could easily provide some funding/money for resources to whichever he chooses cuz you know he's rich.)

Or worst case scenario, Dale hires both.

I also find it entertaining how different Mr. Wells and Crocker are from each other.

Crocker wants to catch and expose them, but Mr. Wells wants to genuinely learn about anything supernatural.

It's really a 50/50, and I'm leaning towards him choosing Mr. Crocker just because of how much more knowledgeable he is on fairies.

Although, it'd be really interesting to see Crocker and Mr. Wells interact.
