Max (Seconds)

From The Codex
Me?

I'm tired, man.

Tired of faking my fake-ass way through life without you, I guess.

~ Max speaking to Katie

Background

Max is a major character in the book Seconds, and is Katie Clay's ex boyfriend. He was hired as a chef for Seconds during its first yearn and is supposedly the co-owner of Lucky's in the main timeline.

When Seconds first opened, Max was hired as a trainee chef under Katie's guidance. After the two warmed up to each other, as Katie originally felt negative towards Max, they began dating. As time went on however, their relationship experienced issues due to their shifts being different times throughout the day. This only further grew as an issue when Katie trained new chefs for Seconds in its popularity growth. Finally, due to Katie's unwillingness to speak to Max about a new restaurant plan she had put into motion, the two broke up fours years after they started dating and parted ways.

Months later, after Katie and Arthur neared the end of renovations for Lucknow Street, Max returned to Seconds in hopes of reconnecting with Katie, who dodged Max anytime they met face to face. This would continue until Katie's sixth revision where she told Max about her restaurant plan, keeping the two together instead of splitting up. In this revision, Max was presented as far more strict and sensitive about Katie's choice of words, like when she said "her restaurant" instead of "our restaurant". This becomes a problem for Katie, as Max ends up "going out" after each day due to her general behavior. In the final revision, the universe corrupts and we see Max and Yana married together instead of Katie, who neither have any knowledge on at this point.

After returning to her original world, Katie nd Max meet once more in the parking lot of Seconds, admitting how much they missed each other. The two start dating again and Max supposedly becomes a co-owner of Lucky's, alongside Katie and Arthur.
