So stay away from me / the beast is ugly (scrooge x magica)
The carriage ride was so long that by the time the horses stopped, night had already settled in. It was a full moon, allowing the stone pathway to be illuminated. The rider said nothing, simply taking Scrooge's bags and walking on ahead. With any luck, this wouldn't be a return trip - but luck had died long ago in this place.
In the distance, one could hear the caws of several ravens, far away in the dark forests. It was difficult to see the house in the darkness, but it was certainly large and grand. Definitely belonging to someone of high class and lots of money. After all, it was part of the reason Scrooge was here.
Another servant was at the door, waiting for them.
"Either look her in the eyes," he warned, "or have them stay on the floor. Never anywhere else. Just keep your introduction and qualifications short. it is..." He hesitated, glancing backwards. "Often too easy to stoke her anger. And lastly... never ask questions."
Some of these things had probably been told to Scrooge before - he'd been recommended the job, after all. Granted, the recommendation came with the mysterious woman buying up his shop like it was nothing. Still, it seemed at least the servants wanted this to go well.
Whatever "this" was... it was about to begin, if he was ready to enter.

It would be better than making that mistake a second time.

"It's just surprising she reacted to it," Clara added quickly. "When her body was normal, she always dismissed her suitors and rolled her eyes at their compliments."

After all, when you had plenty of something, you didn't think too much about it.

If he became rich, he'd never be able to be certain if someone loved him for him and who just wanted his money.
"I imagine once her fortune's secure, they'll come back."

They made it to Scrooge's room, and Clara gently began to set everything down. "Would you like anything, Mister McDuck? A late night meal?"

He stayed there in the tub for some time before he finally got out and emptied the tub. It was near ten when he climbed into bed, the bricks still blissfully warm, as he settled in. Gods, he'd almost forgotten how sinfully soft everything was.
'I could definitely get used to this.'
He closed his eyes, dropping off into a deep sleep almost immediately, and he'd sleep soundly until it was time to get back into the old routine.

When it was time to get to the task at hand, Magica was once more in the library, as dignified and prim as usual. As he entered, she stuck her beak up, snooty as ever.
"I trust you remember where you left things?"
