He was keeping details vague, as if he was afraid to harm the past by divulging the future. He figured that was fine. If anything it was probably smarter than what Max was trying to do. He didn't care for which time or reality someone came, if he saw a friend in them he'd defend them till the end. It was clear he'd already seen it in Ed or will have seen it, and it was all the more reason to protect him while they were here in Limbo. He didn't doubt that Ed could handle himself, but he did note how defensive he'd been, meaning he needed a gunner to help keep others at bay. Madalyne, however, had no issue giving away more details. It made the intimacy the two shared moments ago fit in. A father figure and daughter reunited again even in the most hellish of landscapes. Everyone quickly began to voice their concerns for the free ride home. Sure Max was weary of it all, but he also wanted to return back to see his son, his boyfriend. Who knew how much time had passed back in the waking world, and agitating the supposed Queen of Limbo was likely the worst idea he'd ever heard, and he's come up with some very bad ideas. But the Witchfires words pulled him out of his thoughts. Carving into his mind as the clear threat began to drip from her tongue like venom. And before Max could react, Ed was dead. Fighting broke out all around him, hexes flung, scythe called forth, bears mauling, and more. Chaos. Meanwhile all he could do was sit there and stare at the lifeless corpse of the man he would befriend, the one whose life he couldn't save. All thoughts of his ability to form the trio with James and Casper had flown out the door. Max stood there, the sounds of fighting growing distant as all that remained was silence. For a moment that lasted an eternity. The silence broke as his eyes went pitch, magic swarming around him as he lost control. He'd worked so hard to learn how to keep his emotions in check, how not to have freak outs. But this was all too much. Max stood up, his chair screeching against the floor before it clattered onto the ground. Magic pulsed out of his feet, his usual cosmic dust tainted red and black by Limbos design as t'en grotesque skeletal hands ripped through the Castle floors and grabbed hold of ten demons. They tried to rip the heads off, they tried to make them feel the pain Ed felt, but all they could manage was to hold them firmly in place. All Max could manage out was a single sentence. [Color=aba400]"No moreā€¦"[/color] The final words a whisper in the ears of the ten. Their demonic visage began to fade, turning them human before their skin became ash and blew away in the pulses of magic Max was radiating. He gaze affixed on Sym, letting them know he was coming for their ass.
