I definitely want to toss Kostya at him soon to offer an extroverted friendly (and very spooky) guy that could potentially be some really funny cr, BUT I am not 100% sure what direction I'm going with him re: feats and fallout & whatnot — so alternatively I should definitely toss Ned at him this month I'd honestly be wide open for anything but an initial idea I had — since Ned is cursed to the darkness now, maybe they could bump into each other in the night, while Max is staying up to keep watch?? Ned could be angsting outside and end up coming inside to chat or something like that? He can tell you all about the Darkwalker Dream! Or just during one of Max's General Sleepless Nights if that works better, I'm flexible for anythingggg
