[ MAX HAS HAD A MONTH, OKAY? And with June rolling into July and him now being short one bodyguard, having another brainwashing scare, and hearing that another friend died (but got better) he's definitely not in the best state of mind right now.
Sleep hasn't been coming easy these last few months, tonight he decides he might try to do something with the time, at least.
As the hour draws close to midnight, Max turns on the video feed. He's sitting up in bed, hair scruffy from tossing and turning, illuminated only by the light of his communicator. His eyes are tired, framed by dark circles, but he seems otherwise alert. ]
I know we can't know or control when we get ported out, but if you somehow knew and could accomplish one thing here before that happens, or at least get to do something, what would you do?

Hey Riku, you've been there for me through some hard times. I really appreciate that.
And we need some hangout time that doesn't involve worldwide disasters, I think.

Of course. You've done the same for me, after all. And... I think you're right.

[That's a sad, resigned smile as the reality he usually tries to ignore hits him. He'll lose all his new friends, and he'll need to pull off a miracle out west or he'll lose Marty too.]
I don't want to lose you all, and I'm not resigning myself to the inevitable without trying to fight it.

[ He's lost enough people for one lifetime. ]
You think something like that could work?

But...if I were to know it would be my last chance, I'd make sure you all knew how important you were in my life.
[He smiles warmly. Max really has brightened his life.]
