All things considered, reviving an invitation to one of the richest men alive's mansion came as a shock to Jason. Somehow, this person had known he was alive, and was inviting him to this Christmas Masquerade ball and secret sant event. It was never something the young man would have considered, especially not since it took him away from Gotham and most specifically Crime Alley for a night or two. Not something he usually agreed too as he wanted to be the one out there keeping scum off the streets. Then, he made the mistake of telling the others. They all thought it was a great idea and had their little family's Christmas celebration together early and they managed to sell him on going to this mansion to join in on the fun.
The next thing he knew, he was RSVPing for this event. Removing some very important instructions over the phone and told where to meet the car that would take him right to the mansion the event would be held in. Honestly, it should have felt ridiculous being nervous about going to this mansion. He had been living at one off and on since he was eleven years old, but here he was completely and totally nervous about that anyways. Perhaps because it was so far from home, or perhaps because he was not sure that this was not some kind of trick by someone pretending to be this man. Oh well, too late to back out now as he had hopped on into the car.
The ride there was a bit quiet. Aside from the classical music the driver was playing. Jason never spoke much. He just protectively held his duffle bag, that for once did not carry his Redhood gear with him. Somehow, the others had talked him into leaving it behind. Instead, it had some forms change of clothes so he would fit in at this event, and it had an antique Victorian era teaser he had managed to find and purchase for his secret Santa partner. He did hope they would like the gift he had gotten them.
He was all too relieved when they arrived at the mansion. He was impressed by the architecture. He slipped the driver a tip, then stepped on out of the car. The mansion grounds looked quite beautiful. Though the white was definitely not the easiest thing on his eyes. He made his way into the mansion really quickly. He was not too surprised to be greeted by a butler, and then get handed off to another staff member. He followed this other staff member to his lodging, still being very careful with his duffle bag. He tipped the man when he made it there and went in.
He quite enjoyed how nice the room was, and it seemed it had quite the pick of classic literature. At least he would not be board in his room as he waited for festivities. He was excited to try on his mask. The fact he was a wolf inspired mask got him grinning. How ironic, and he doubted this guy knew just how much of a threat Jason was too the scum that troubled the streets of Gotham. Especially not that he was viewed by them as a predator. But the wolf fit him in far more ways than one too.
Finally, the big night came and he was able to make his way back to his room. Once again he found a letter and this time a pin. He would get the pin secured on the lapel of his tuxedo and put the mask on. Now picking up the now wrapped box he had put the antique Victorian tea set into and he slowly exited his room and headed down to the dining hall to celebrate the special Christmas holiday season at the ball. He also began to look for the person that had a pin that matched his, so they could be ready for the secret Santa gift exchange. He didn't know why, but he had allowed his nerves to make his heart beat fast. How unbecoming of him, oh well, it was time to celebrate, and celebrate he would.
