He was completely oblivious to any present. Truthfully, as cheesy as it might sound, just seeing his friend again was more than enough of a gift to him. He didn't bother to contain his excitement, his tail beating about a mile a minute as he came to greet her. Though he tried to keep a polite distance, he was far too elated to see her and ended up taking a few more steps closer to her. Hopefully this is a sign that they will being training again. Next time it will be his turn to seek her out, a thought that made him as nervous as it did excited. Currently he was overwhelmed with joy, enough that his usual nervousness was pushed to the side. She was happy to see him, too, he could see that plainly - and that was all Spirit really needed.
And... not only was she here, but she had news, and had brought him something? No one had ever done that for him. He let out a delighted little laugh, full of mirth as she grabbed something from behind her and handed it to him. Not sure how to properly unwrap it, he settled down on his stomach, using one paw to untie the bow while his other held down the gift, finally pushing aside the leather to reveal what was inside. "Oh! This is w-wonderful!" Spirit exclaimed quietly once he got the thing open, knowing exactly what it was for. Not only that, but... she'd filled it with herbs, carefully and thoughtfully bundled. It was a delight, one he certainly had not expected, and he didn't know properly how to thank her. He sniffed gingerly at the herbs for a moment before redirecting his attention to Meadow.
He had no clue how to thank her, but the gesture seemed to warrant a more heartfelt reaction than his stammering voice could manage. After a moment he lifted himself up, summoning up some boldness before reaching out to embrace her, gently slipping his head around her shoulder. She had been so kind to him, more kind than almost everyone he'd ever met before, and he was beyond grateful for her time and company. "T-t-thank you," he offered gently, overwhelmed with emotion suddenly. "I l-love it."

Spirit has a female strawberry Finch companion named Strawberry, who is almost always nearby.
He also is usually wearing a saddlebag if he's away from home.
