“He had been purposefully ignoring her since the other night. He had said no more than hello and goodbye to her at work. He hadn't even come to Crash for the last couple of nights. She had been expecting him to make a move, to say something that next morning. He had loved to see that disconcerted expression when he had acted as if nothing had happened. Had really enjoyed her frustration at not knowing what to do, how to act around him. He knew it was not very nice of him, but he liked the feeling of having Max acting all strange and careful around him for once.”

This is really amusing, but I really want her to make him pay for it. I’m a chick, I’m on her side.

I like the Manticore reminiscing! It’s kind of oddly cute and sweet considering. Never read that take on it before, good for you!

“"Well, she always had a hard time getting her priorities straight."”

No shit!

“He had sounded so... possessive.”

Yeah… le sigh.

Holy crap! Did he kill Logan? He totally killed Logan!
*jealous*

Somehow, I thought you had read this years ago. If you hadn't, then... "Holy crap! Did he kill Logan? He totally killed Logan!" ... now... would I do that? *beams*

Glad you are having a good time! Thanks for letting me know.

*hugs*
