It's 3.43 am. I have asthma. I can't sleep because I was busy catching up to this chapter. You better take responsibility!

2024-07-26 19:44:31 +0000 UTCI feel like some people were acting a little strangely to Max's craziness from last chapter. But like, dude is a manic, little psycho, and he has been for a while. The system has just completely made him into an entirely different person. Recall Max from all the way at the beginning to Max now. It's just so crazy to see what Bravery - 20, Aggression - 20, and all the other unknown stats affecting his personality have turned him into it. Sometimes, it turns him into what we saw last chapter...which is a real mess. I can only imagine how strung out Max would be at this point if he didn't have such a strong support system. But I've been loving every second of it. Keep up the great work, Ted.

2024-05-28 15:57:58 +0000 UTCI thought that was the kit anyways. Glad it matches my imagination now.

2024-05-27 16:53:26 +0000 UTCNot only was this chapter about getting the fans to understand Max, but it was the people Max had already opened up to helping Max open up to even more people. Max doesn't trust the fans but wants them to trust him completely - Emma and Henrí, and MD, and the whole team are helping him open up so they can trust him (and maybe letting Max see that it's ok to be open a bit). Good stuff, Ted .

2024-05-27 12:09:21 +0000 UTCThe only issue with the last chapter was the nature of a serial release mate and not wanting to wait a few days for the climax. When this is out as a book, I think it's the perfect break point.

2024-05-27 11:00:39 +0000 UTCThis chapter was a complete success, imo. Satisfying and explanatory, and I absolutely loved Max's allies pulling together to be there when he needed them. I think moving the break might well help, but this chapter makes a world of difference.

2024-05-27 10:58:46 +0000 UTCI love it!!! Its always scary when youre reading or watching something and theres a big hype build up, because what if it ends up dissapointing?? Just look at tv shows such as Game of Thrones or The Mentalist, where they hyped and hyped the end, only for it to ruin the series itself. Im more than glad to say that, for me at least, this chapter was definitely worth the hype, especially considering this is your first (or one of your firsts) draft. I do agree that adding on some more anti-max actions from the board will help justify the maxplosion, which will elevate what i see as a great chapter to a fantastical one
