[So have you ever wonder what it's like to have so much money you have absolutely no idea what to do with? Well now you can experience it! Since this morning due to the strange manner of things being returned - there are coins everywhere, and we mean EVERYWHERE in the Apartments. It started in Scrooge's and Jaime's room, the money pouring in up to the ceiling, and expanding outwards and just kept going and going and going.

Except for the completely full room, the entire complex is knee to waist-deep in coins and paper money with dog-faced presidents, the stairs are practically slides as well! Generally it's slow going and finding anything is going to be difficult]

Ahehehehe-ha-ha! This feels a bit more like home!

[Except somehow that old duck is swimming through this mess like a porpoise in the sea. Just... how?]

((1% on remembering he's the richest duck in the world, 1% remembering he's from scotland so 5%, also assume this gets clean up in a couple days so you don't have to play out the annoyance of too much money if you don't want. Feel thread to threadjack and threadhop))

[Standing in the threshold of his room...]

It's literally never going to be safe outside my block, is it.

[Scrooge pops out of a pile]

It's not that bad.

Yeah, I guess this at least probably won't kill anyone unless they do something silly and unnecessary like ever be anywhere near a staircase.

I'm warning you right now, okay? When somebody breaks their neck, you will know that I warned you. I told you about the fucking stairs.

What is this, monopoly money?

Mo-monopoly money? Lad! Do ye not recognize US Currency?

No way dude, I'm too poor to afford money.

[The old duck may be able to swim through it all but the young scientist is miring through it like swamp thing in a turtleneck. He carries what looks like a half-disassembled toaster that glows an odd yellowish-white from the inside.]

What the hell, man; It's like someone emptied every monopoly board in the world into this place! Do not pass go, do not collect two hundred--WHOA!

[Oh look, stairs. He falls into the lack of floor and is swallowed up in funny money.]

Shen has managed to wade his way to the doors and wrestled them open to go outside. He slides out the door on a wave of coins and comes to rest on the sidewalk, coming to a stop lying flat on his stomach.

Blinkblink.

He gets up, flaps his wings, and then shakes out his tail feathers in a great showering of random coinage.

Scrooge steps out and looks at the fallen peacock curiously, adjusting his glasses.

Coins bounce and roll everywhere as Shen methodically shakes them out of his feathers and robes. Only then does he put his tail feathers back down and thus notice the scrutiny.

"D'you have any idea where all of this came from?" He fishes another few coins out of his robes.

*Guess who was passing by said room on his way to work?

Guess who got avalanched by coins and is now currently only spottable by an arm and a leg sticking out and his hat?*

[Scrooge sighs and starts digging Kotetsu out]

Are ye all right, lad?

currency! eeeeeeeeverywhere!

*He looks physically unharmed, at least.*
