You proceed into the bank in the broad of day, exactly half-an-hour after opening and already there are a fair number of people here...People who all seem to be anthropomorphic cats. Eight of them to be exact.
Two tellers stand behind the wooden counter, one calico and the other siamese, both looking over your way and eyeing you suspiciously. Five customers are in line; a mother with an infant and ten-year old child, all; a grey tabby with a full and heavy backpack; and a old maine coon with a scar across the top of his head and greying fur around his face and...paw-hands.
And finally, standing beside the counter is a very fluffy and very round persian cat, dressed in a fine suit. If you have good eyes, you may notice that he's wearing a fairly fancy tag with the words 'Manager Meow' on it.
Around the area are four doors but well, you may want to deal with the people first.
You successfully enter the safe, the manager closing the door behind you. Inside, 91,500,000 yen awaits.
However, for every free square you have you can only fit 355,000 yen inside. However, it'll take you some time to fill your case and the dufflebag, and you'll only be able to pick up 710,000 yen at a time. It'll be a bit of a long process, and you made a deal to share 50% of the cut, didn't you?
The mother holds her infant and child closer, watching you warily. The old maine coon just scoffs at the mother and moves on to get started on his business with the teller and the college student just shrugs at you.
The manager makes his way over to you with...what might be a feline smile.
"Very well. We're a bit busy this morning, so you'll have to wait in line. We should be ready to help you by 10:00am. Thank you for considering Lion Bank!"
With the pitch given the manager goes back behind the counter to finish his work...And the grey tabby with the backpack takes a step back to 'pst' at you.
[She moves to the line, looking around at the whole place thoughtfully. She looked at the tabby, raising an eyebrow. She lowers her voice.] What do ya mean?
[Shrugs, leaning back.] I dunno, just seems weird to be all concerned. This is still a good bank, yeah? Not like a species is gonna determine how well it runs and manages.
