"Don't think too hard~ Save that for more fun things," Max said.

"You get freebies for a few reasons. One, you deserve them. Two, out of spite for Grandma. Three, you'll end up doing exactly what I want and need you to all on your own. I don't need a deal to get what I want from you. You'll do it out of your own sense of honor, gratitude, and helping those you care about. I just need you to be you. I made sure to bring you back after you died. Hence those fun little changes to yourself. Grandma capitalized on all my hard work."
