Max Evans Weekend Day 1: Angsty Nerd ↳ Max’s writing & love for literature

[Image Description: Seven stacked gifs from Roswell, New Mexico.

First: A close up shot of Max’s hands as he places a sheet of paper under a windshield wiper. There is text in a cursive font that reads, “I feel like I’m disappearing until you look at me and then I’m so completely seen.” Second: Two scenes side by side. On the left, Max holds a book and says, “This is a first edition, Cam.” Jenna (offscreen) responds, “Yep, knew that would give you a nerd boner.” On the right, Jenna holds out a paper bag to Max and says, “A hoodie, a belt, and The Great Gatsby. Stuff you left at my place.” Third: Max sits on the hood of a car, holding a book. There is text that reads, “Max Evans, right? Sorta bowlegged, way into Tolstoy, really nice handwriting for a guy.” Fourth: Two scenes of Max writing by hand. Fifth: Anatsa reads a page of Max’s book. There is text that reads, “Three sentences in, I was hooked. You’re legit good and it’s offensive.” Sixth: Two scenes side by side. On the left, Max is attempting to comfort Liz at prom and says, "Well, ‘Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown,’ I guess.” On the right, Liz has stopped by Max’s house and holds up one of his books that had been sitting out. She says, “Henry IV, Part 2. Of all the books.” Seventh: Max sits at his desk, in front of his typewriter. There is text in a cursive font that reads, “And he wondered if this would always be his plight, trading a currency of victories and tragedies, bartering with a mercenary universe, for a hope he might have once deserved. After all, the man had found a way to live with half a heart once, had locked up darkened chambers and pretended them away.”]

I've felt wrong, like there's a... like there's a tornado inside me, and I can't fight it and I can't run from it

[Image Description: Six stacked gifs from Roswell, New Mexico.

First: Maria and Max are at Crashcon, when Maria notices Flint and says, “Flint’s here. Is that the atomizer?” Max is very concerned and says, "Maria, you have to get out of here. Now.” He then runs after Flint. Second: Two scenes side by side. On the left, Liz is behind Max and he says, "Follow me. Stay close.” On the right, Max and Liz stand in her lab as he says, “But if something happens and I can’t protect you and Isobel at the same time, you should have a way to protect yourself.” Third: Tezca is at the station and says, “Let’s see how chatty she is after I cut out her tongue.” Max uses his powers to open Bonnie’s cell and tells Michael, ”Get Bonnie out of here.” Fourth: Two scenes side by side. On the left, Max says, “Maybe the killer’s possessing Wyatt right now, trying to throw us off. It’s not Maria. She’s Liz’s best friend. Liz would know.” On the right, Liz (offscreen) says, “I asked you point blank if you saw her that night.” Max responds, “You have enough painful memories.” Fifth: Maria stands on the ledge of the Crashdown rooftop and says, “So, I’m gonna jump off the roof. You’re gonna catch me.” Max responds, “Get back from the ledge, Maria.” Sixth: Two scenes side by side. On the left, Max says, “Liz, give me the antidote before you go. If I’m the one holding the cure, then I’m the one refusing to use it. I’m the killer, not you." On the right, Max says, “I am scared of hurting you, of dragging you further into my mess. I mean, you deserve greatness, you deserve happiness.”]

“This town ain’t big enough for the both of us”

When news reaches the county judge that acting Sheriff Ortecho of Roswell is a woman, he appoints a local Marshal to take her place. But when Max Evans arrives in the dusty dairy town he finds, aside from Wyatt Long and the Burndhart’s, the town isn’t so welcoming to the idea of an outsider taking her place.

Liz isn’t ready to let go of her badge, especially not with the local doctor and her sister still missing. And the new “Sheriff” Max Evans has a string of strangeness following him and his posse around. A blacksmith, a preacher, and a widow; who all carry similar quirks and an almost other worldly nature.
