Heaven's Lost Property was one of the first anime I ever watched. Thank you so much.
Is she actually capable of that feat?Heaven's Lost Property's shenanigans will soon accrue. Prepare yourself Taylor for your life to soon get extra Ecchi.
Anything Taylor says in Ikaros's Hearing range will be followed to the letter. Regardless of how Absurd it is. If Taylor says to Kill the Endbringers, Ikarus will not just kill the Main 3 but the other 17+ Endys in storage.
Just as a note, the million dollars appearing out of nowhere wouldn't even bounce the inflation needle. 1m sounds like a lot... but it's really not.
That said the economy wouldn't notice but the Secret Service, the PRT and the Protectorate might, and I'm pretty sure one of the first laws for parahumans was to ban using any power to conjure money.My thoughts exactly, though Taylor is a young lady yet, and as such she may not fully understand how little of an impact the amount she requested would have on the overall economy, because as a young girl growing up in a working class household, to her that much money seems an almost cosmically huge amount, whereas in the broader scheme of things we know it really wouldn't be.
My suggestion would have been simply to hide most of it in her room, taking out small bundles here and there discreetly.
At least now she knows she can literally print money if she needs to, so any unexpected expenses which come up can be dealt with relatively easily.

All in all better to use such power with discretion, lower denomination and used bills.

As others have pointed out, one million it's not going to cause any trouble with inflation, at all."Listen Ikaros; there's this thing called inflation - if we print more money, basically the money's worth less than it was before. That's why people work. Thank you, but please don't do that again, alright?"
No, quite literally, not possible. It's not about any inherent property of the matter involved, but about who makes it, and it having been duly ordered by the government.Nah if i remenber Right the Synapse is above the average hax so that money should be Real on every way it count
That's the point of altering reality, they bend it to make it fit regardless of what you come up with. It's how conceptual stuff works.
Danny can actually probably pretty easily help her launder it, which covers them from the IRS. It's just that Think Tank will probably still find and hammer them for it...depending on mechanics and anti-Thinker properties and so on.As others have pointed out, one million it's not going to cause any trouble with inflation, at all.
On the other hand, it's definitely either stealing or counterfeiting*, and actually using all that will nearly certainly attract the attention of the IRS, the Feds and a multitude of others.
No, if you are looking for that, better to find a way to get a highly fungible commodity and sell that. Or if you want to somewhat hide the magic card, use it to set up a business that will in turn both make and launder money for you.
* US Dollars are only legitimate if it's made by the treasury department when it gets ordered to do so and it follows all appropriate procedure. Otherwise it might be an absolutely perfect copy, but still just a copy. As such, money from thin air is either counterfeit or it was existing money taken from somewhere else, thus stealing.
Anime logic.Why did Danny bust down the door though? For all he knew, she just had a friend over?

No, quite literally, not possible. It's not about any inherent property of the matter involved, but about who makes it, and it having been duly ordered by the government.
And if the hax does go for changing reality to the point of making the government follow the procedures to order it being printed by the right department, then we still end with the "and how it got to Taylor", which likely got stolen.
And if we are going for the "completely rewrite reality so that it's real money that has a perfectly legal route from source to Taylor, well, either Ikaros has to have legitimate access to an already existing account to withdraw that money from or she wrote reality so completely that Taylor would always have had access to that money, and at that level of power there ceases to be any meaningful conflict with the story (plus the argument change to the ethics of completely rewriting reality or not, and if that counts as genociding the previous reality and recreating the new version or not ).
I know that the original source did write the card off in very short order after it got introduced, because it went with the silly crack-ish extreme views of its power, but I feel that's something of a waste. By limiting it to less absurd levels of power it could be kept being used within the limitations the author defines instead of being an inherent story-breaker.
