Luckily for Jason, the Baron and his vanity is a universal constant. He will be delighted to accept the gifts as proof of the little thiefling's progress, giving Jason his Woof of approval as he slips them onto his paws and admires them.
As for something a little more challenging... He has just the thing. He's been needing someone a little more low profile to do a job for him. One that hinges on stealth, quick thinking, and the willingness to show your bite is far worse than your bark.
There is a space exhibit opening up in Excelsior. While it isn't anything terribly remarkable, it did manage to uncover something the Baron is... concerned by. Recently an object fell to earth. How, he doesn't know, but he heard it as it fell from the sky and researchers grabbed it before the Society was able to. It is a weapon that he would very much like to have his paws on. The fools don't realize what they have in their possession - they know it's a weapon, but they do not know the sheer capacity it has.
The difficult part, the Baron explains, is that he's not the only one who wants it. Jason and Accelerator will need to work against the building's security, the hired security firm, and the sworn enemy of Baron von Borzoi - a thief that goes by the name Felicity Slaughterclaws, Scourge of the Stars, Whisker of Trinkets.
His sworn enemy that also fell and stranded themselves on Earth, and they have never agreed to abide by Society law. The moment they see someone making a move on the exhibit, they will co-opt the operation and try to take it for themselves. That is why he has not made a move on it himself, believing it would be best in neutral territory where the fiendish feline cannot get her claws on it.
If they can break in and steal the object - a small, oblong flute called the Canem Sibilus - then they'll have proved themselves to be truly Dog's Best Friend. A title he does not provide lightly.
