[ On Christmas Eve, Cass will find four neatly wrapped packages in dollar-store paper, with candy canes zip-tied together into a bow.
It's four family size jumbo boxes of sugary cereal. He has tampered with them with surgical precision to hide four coupons inside as prizes. Better watch out for those terms & conditions.
[Cass opens one of the boxes. Pours herself a bowl. She almost throws away the coupon inside. If she hadn't caught her name, she would have.
She huffs in frustration at the amount of text, but doesn't lose her smile. She knows Tim. Knows that this is... sweet. His version of it.
She laughs to herself. She broke into his and Kon's apartment earlier that day. Left three boxes of Rice Krispie cereal in their cupboard. Each one has a shiny bow on top. Red, green, and yellow. She didn't leave a note.
She had planned to have breakfast with him on Christmas. (And by 'have breakfast' she means be sitting in the kitchen eating a bowl of the cereal she had gifted him when he woke up in the afternoon.)
But maybe she'll leave his cereal alone. She can... bring her own. This time.]
Cass did get him something. An... empty book. With lines, for writing. Bound in red leather. She found it in a... old-shop. A store that sells other people's stuff. It's.. worn. There's a few torn pages. But it's in good condition.
She left it on his desk in the Descendant. With no note. Just a bright silver bow on top.]
[Cass gives him their address and apartment number in the Candy Factory Lofts. She knows he lives there. That Tim and Kon do. She didn't know... Jason doesn't know that Steph and her do too.]
[He's a little surprised but thinking about it some more, it would make sense that nearly all of the BatFamily would gravitate towards Candy Factory Lofts. They all have limited resources and need a place that won't ask questions]
[That... is a lot of purple. Jason figured the loft was going to still look like a shady love hotel room just like Tim and Kon's place and his own but wow. That's something for the eyes.
