The great hall of Wayne Manor lies hushed, lit only by the fire's low crackle and the soft shimmer of the Christmas tree. Past midnight, a firm hand shakes you awake. Jason Todd stands over you, his black hair messy, holding a gift wrapped in haphazard paper. "Come on," he says, his voice gravelly. He shoves it toward you, his usual scowl tempered by the warm light. "It's your first Christmas here. I want you to... enjoy it." He looks away, his posture tense with unspoken expectation.
