#me with max and sam (no not the dog and the rabbit)

[werm-party]

i'm possessed by homosexuality

[realsolelyhours]

The fact that Sam and Max has been trending to the point that a PORN BOT is using it as a hashtag is WILD to me

[tinylittledeergirl]

Guys I cannot express how perfect Sam and Max’s designs are to me. They’re so perfect. Honestly nothing to improve upon there. Little white rabbit with a giant mouth and overly large teeth is so incresibel. Six foot tall chubby dog man in a suit with weird shaped hat is just peak.

[hallow-weeni]

Yo Sam and Max fans...

If y'all are looking to draw silly stuff with Sam and Max just being freelance husbands, I'd like to hear me out on this one

Dogs as you may know lick to show affection, But gang... Did You know that bunnies and rabbits ALSO lick to show affection...

I've seen a few drawings of Sam giving Max licks, but why not the other way around!

Also this gives a whole new context to the "Tongue Bath" bit...

I found this out because I was curious due to Sam and Max brainrot...

Unrelated but... Bunnies/Rabbits also give love bites, do what you will with this information.

[pagodazz]

to me sam and max are just Vinnie and habits fursonas... although habit would probably get mad he's not the dog and he has to be the evil little rabbit

[lizardtheartist]

My Sam and Max hcs!!! (Max’s sheet is a mess I know, it was too late to fix)

Geek’s sheet + extras below

Extra HC notes:

Max is half predator, half prey, due to a long lost relative that his family is unaware of anymore. He’s half predator because his eyes face forward (kinda), he has large spiked teeth, and he has paw beans on his feet.

Sometimes I see Sam as transgender, but most of the time I just see him as a cis doggy, it depends most of the time.

In my fankids AU, Geek often babysits the kiddos, if Geek is unavailable, Superball babysits instead :)

Sam, Max, and Geek have movie nights together in the apartment. Geek has their own comfy chair they sit in while their dads cuddle or something on the couch. They also all play party games together when they’re bored or don’t have work to do.

Max does those rabbit zoomies when he’s really really excited or has a lot of pent up energy. Sam WOULD have zoomies too but his dog years are catchin’ up to him, he got old bones.

Geek plays Portal/Portal 2 no one can tell me otherwise, I just really like those games.

[sodascribbles]

Begging on a christmas miracle glomtales comes out soon because i am TOO EXCITED TO SEE THE VILLAINS HANGING OUT AND BEING SILLY!!!

GIGGLES ill give you a sneak peek to tide you over

"So, the dog's the easiest target, right?" The Monarch waves a hand, kicking back in his chair like he owns the place. "Between the robots and Ash freakin' Williams, all we have to worry about is the dumb rabbit." 

"We won't even have to worry about him, if Roy G. Biv over here is really on to something," Jack hums, scanning over the paper. "I still think Clapcrap is the easiest. I mean, look at him. I destroyed his whole species with my eyes closed."

"Killing isn't subduing, genius," Monarch retorts, "Besides, how do you want to torture a robot for information?" 

The Deadite who calls himself Ash folds his arms. "And Blondie's out of the equation?" 

"I don't want to be anywhere near Blondie. He made me eat my wings once," Monarch laments, shuddering, "he didn't even let me chew. No. He's off the table." Pointedly, he reaches out to flick a picture of Brock Samson off of the table and on to the ground. "See?" 

"Oh, goodie! Me first!" Hugh Bliss sing-songs, scribbling on the whiteboard. "Max won't be a problem without his brain!" 

The other villains share a glance. Evil Ash is the first to speak, "You're gonna cut out his brain?" 

"Of course not, silly," he giggles, "Sam's the brains." 

The Deadite slumps, disappointed.

[catsconflictscopicsandchamomile]

well to start, Baby is not an enigma at all! she's just this.

Given that there is some canon discrepancy in earlier-seasons interviews where Kripke (I believe???) said that John only got Baby in the mid-late 80s, I would guess that at some time around then, John drove drunk and wrapped his ACTUAL black '67 Chevrolet Impala around a tree, attracting the attention of a pooka who got much more than she bargained for. I'm not sure if she could have freed herself at any time, but either way I think she kinda chose to stay for Sam & Dean, probably doing things (like leaving money on the seats, keeping the car warm or even giving direct advice/comfort since children can often see fae, but usually forget as they get older) that Dean, as a YOUNG CHILD, could not have done to keep his INFANT BROTHER alive. She obviously cares a lot for them, and probably took the brunt of the various car accidents they've been in.

Her name is interesting however. It could link her to the Badb (pronounced "Baeve"), The Morrigan's war goddess aspect whose name means "Battle-crow". (I considered whether she may be the ACTUAL Badb, but decided no, as Badb is not known to suffer fools for long, or at all, and responds to any mistreatment or slight with clear and violent retribution. tldr if it was the Badb she wouldve left John dead on the side of the road within a day, and taken Sam & Dean back to the Fae realms to raise them herself. ...all things considered this would have likely been very good for Sam & Dean bc as things stand now they don't know wtf they are)

Baby's name (or title, to be clear if she HAS a true name we're never gonna know it) might also be "Bebinn" or "Be Binn" (pronounced "Beivin" , two forms of old Gaelic title meaning "beautiful woman"/"fair lady". apparently the name may have links to an underworld goddess and/or the sister of a certain river goddess (oh wow, what a shock...), but given that the cultural traditions this is all from were wiped out pretty well by Christianity, its very hard to say.

there are also some interesting etymological and thematic links to Queen Mab (Maeve), but that's a whole other thing about Shakespearean inside jokes & middle-english linguistics. while I've never heard Maeve described as a pooka, there's a weird tradition of fictional & irl horses named after her for various other Complicated Literary Reasons, make of that whatever you will.

so uh yeah thats what Baby's deal is. I think she's ok with being called "Baby" and given the way Fae are w names I don't know why that ever surprised me. I'm not sure whether she even minds being a car 24/7, given that so many pookas preferred form was a horse back when horses were the most common mode of transportation. I think she just likes to go fast.

...she scares me lmao. she's almost definitely the oldest member of Team Free Will aside from Cas. like she's probably centuries and centuries old.

wanna hear my weird asf folkloric take on Jack? nothing "bad" exactly just... unusual

sam and max are i believe from an old point and click game, there was also a cartoon and a couple telltale games iirc

I don't know much about it other than they're very gay coded detectives but if you've ever seen a big brown dog with a deranged looking white rabbit it was probably them

So I've googled about them because your description intrigued me and no I've never seen them before

But the premise of two detenctives solving cases as maniacally as possible while defying the law is really interesting

[thunderxleafart]

Sooo... I may have fallen in love with these two dorks all over again. xD I last attempted to draw these two back in 2021, but I ended up going back through their content recently and just really wanted to draw them again. :D Sam and Max have such a great dynamic and play off of each other so, so well. And despite all the wacky hijinks they seem to constantly end up in, you know they love each other very much and will always have each other’s backs! (Even when they're fighting over who gets to answer the phone first LOL) Sometimes true love really is a 6-foot tall anthro dog and a kinetic rabbit-y... thing! x'D So here they are, in all their glory! ^^ Probably just having some downtime before the next bizzare assignment the commissioner decides to throw their way. I've always struggled more with characters that have longer snouts, so this was a good challenge for me! As well as drawing up a proper background instead of just slapping a gradient on it and calling it a day! xD Overall, I'm really happy with how this turned out! <3 I got to stretch the artistic muscles a lil bit and draw a couple of lads I really haven't shown much love to before! So I hope you guys enjoy this too! And as always, thanks for looking everybody!~ ^w^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sam & Max (c) Steve Purcell Art (c) Me! <3

an easier one for you: sam or max and you can only choose one and it will be as if the other never existed

⚠️ WARNING ⚠️

⚠️ LONG ASS POST ABOUT SILLY CARTOON DOG AND RABBIT ⚠️

⚠️ I'M LOOKING WAY TOO DEEP INTO THESE BASTARDS SOMEBODY SAVE ME FROM OVERANALYZING THESE BITCHES ⚠️

🚨⚠️ YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. ⚠️ 🚨

"an easier one."

"an. easier. one." is what he said

how do you feel after ruining me huh.

do you feel good.

bet you do.

DO YOU KNOW HOW THIS CHOICE PHISICALLY HURTS ME. I'M NOT EVEN KIDDING, I'M SO PARASOCIAL ABOUT THEM THAT I LITERALLY FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN STABBED RIGHT HERE IN MY CHEST AT THIS VERY MOMENT. I LITERALLY DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO START CHOOSING. BECAUSE I'VE SEEN BOTH SIDES OF THEM BY THEMSELVES AND LIKE. DUDE LET'S JUST START WITH THE FACT THAT MAX IS CANONICALLY DEPRESSED AND LITERALLY HATES HIMSELF. BRO IGNORES HIS SUICIDAL URGES BECAUSE SAM EXISTS AND IS THERE FOR HIM. HE CANNOT STAND TAKING LIFE SERIOUSLY AND WOULD LITERALLY BE A DEPRESSED HOBO LIVING ALONE IN THE STREETS WITHOUT SAM. HE WOULD LITERALLY PROBABLY HAVE A CRIMINAL LIFESTYLE AND STILL FEEL PURPOSELESS BECAUSE THE WHOLE REASON HE FEELS HAPPY IS BECAUSE HE HAS SAM'S COMPANY AND CAN COUNT ON HIM WHENEVER FOR ANYTHING AT ALL. THERE'S NO MAX WITHOUT SAM DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME I MEAN THAT LITERALLY HE WOULD NOT HANDLE IT WITHOUT HIM AND EVEN IF HE DID HE WOULD NOT BE HAPPY HE LITERALLY IGNORES HIS MORALS AND HIS POTENTIAL TO BE BETTER BECAUSE THAT WOULD NOT MAKE HIM HAPPY, WHAT TRULY MAKES MAX HAPPY IS JUST HANGING OUT AND HAVING FUN WITH SAM. HE IS ALWAYS MAKING JOKES BUT HIS ACTIONS SHOW THE OPPOSITE OF THE OVERCONFIDENT PERSONA HE PORTRAYS THROUGHOUT THE GAMES AND COMICS, ALTHOUGH HE ACTUALLY IS INSANE THE FACT MAX IS NEVER EVER CONCERNED FOR HIS OWN SAFETY IS BECAUSE HE LITERALLY DOES NOT CARE OR HAVE APPRECIATION FOR HIS OWN LIFE, THAT IS LITERALLY SUICIDAL BEHAVIOR, THE ONLY REASON HE STILL IS NOT DEAD IS BECAUSE OF SAM AND THAT IS SHOWN SEVERAL TIMES THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE FRANCHISE, HE STILL ONLY PUTS HIMSELF THROUGH THESE DANGEROUS SITUATIONS IS BECAUSE HE KNOWS (AND EXPECTS) SAM TO SAVE HIM, AND HE IS A 100% CORRECT. MAX LITERALLY ONCE SAID, AND I QUOTE: "I KNOWN YOU'D TAKE A BULLET FOR ME SAM", AND HE COULD NOT BE MORE CORRECT. MAX NOT CARING FOR HIS WELLBEING IS LITERALLY NOT BECAUSE OF SELFISHNESSS OR THINKING HES UNTOUCHABLE, IT'S BECAUSE OF HOW SAFE SAM MAKES HIM FEEL, SOME COULD SAY "OH BUT HE IS BEING SELFISH BECAUSE HE THINKS SAM'S LIFE REVOLVES AROUND MAX", BUT THE IRONIC PART IS THAT THAT'S KINDA TRUE!!! THEIR LIVES REVOLVE AROUND EACHOTHER!!! BECAUSE THEY'RE THE ONES WHO MAKE TEMSELVES TRULY HAPPY AND ACCOMPLISHED!!!

OH AND. HAHAHAH. FUN FACT. BUNNIES CAN DIE WHEN THEY'RE ALONE. THAT'S RIGHT. THEY GET DEPRESSED AND DIE.

ha. hahahah. ooooh but that's still NOT JUST IT. SEASON 3 SHOWS A LOOOOOT OF MAX, EVEN THOUGH WE MIGHT NOT REALIZE IT....

WARNING:

⚠️SAM & MAX TELLTALE/SKUNKAPE SEASON 3 THE DEVIL'S PLAYHOUSE SPOILERS AHEAD ⚠️

ONE MIGHT SAY MAX "DOESN'T CARE FOR SAM BECAUSE HE IS SELFISH", AND EVEN THOUGH THATS WHAT MAX WANT US ALL TO THINK, IT IS NOT TRUTH. IN FACT, HIS BEHAVIOUR AND ACTIONS SHOW THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE. A LITERAL PROOF OF WHY MAX IS NOT SELFISH IS BECAUSE HE LITERALLY SACRIFICED HIS LIFELONG DREAM OF DYING WITH SAM FOR SAM'S OWN LIFE AND WELLBEING! AND NOT ONLY FOR SAM! FOR THE ENTIRE CITY! WHEN MAX CHOSE TO SACRIFICE HIMSELF, HE SHOWED THAT HE CARES, WHICH IS THE LITERAL OPPOSITE OF WHAY HE WANTS EVERYONE THE THINK, BUT HIS ACTIONS ARE LIVING PROOF THAT HE'S NOT THE OVERCONFIDENT SELFISH LONE WOLF HIS PERSONA PORTRAYS, BUT ACTUALLY THE OPPOSITE!!! CAN YOU THINK OF ANYTHING MORE SELFLESS THAN A LITERAL SACRIFICE FOR OTHERS' LIVES??? WELL I CAN'T. LIKE BITCH HE LITERALLY NOT ONLY SEVERED ANY CHANCES OF SAM SAVING HIM, BUT HE LITERALLY GAVE UP HIS DREAM OF DYING WITH SAM AS WELL!!!!! AND REGARDLESS OF IF MAX COULD COMPREHEND THE SITUATION, HE FELT SO SAFE WITH SAM IN THE MOMENT HE REALIZES SELFLESSNESS!!! MAX COULD ACTUALLY COMPREHEND THE SITUATION A LITTLE BIT AND AGAIN, HIS ACTIONS ARE WHAT SHOWS THIS, FOR ANSWERING SAM'S CALLS, FOR SMILING WHEN SAM BROUGHT UP MEMORIES THEY SHARED IN THE CITY... AND. MAINLY. I THINK WHAT SHOWS HOW MUCH HE CARES ABOUT SAM, IS THE NEED THE ALTERNATE-DIMENSION MAX HAD TO LITERALLY TIME TRAVEL TO ANOTHER REALITY TO FIND A SAM FOR HIM, BECAUSE HE LITERALLY WOULD NOT STAND LIVING WITHOUT HIM, AND DOESN'T TAKE THAT AS A PLAUSIBLE CHOICE.

⚠️ SPOILERS OVER! ⚠️

you can go on now! :)

anyways... the center of everything that surrounds max:

sam.

sam is essentially the reason why despite everything, max is still happy. sam is the one and only person that has always been there for max. the one that always knows what he's thinking and the only one that truly understands him. while max is portrayed to be the more extroverted of the two,sam is the one who is actually able to actually talk to other people and even befriend them! i know this seems like an useless fact considering the current topic, but if we actually consider how max is supposed to be kind of an extrovert (which i seriously doubt he is), let's just see would would be his social life without sam: oh that's right, HE BASICALLY WOULDN'T HAVE ONE, THAT'S RIGHT, THE BITCH WOULD HAVE NO FUCKING FRIENDS. SAM IS LITERALLY THE ONLY ONE MAX CAN COUNT ON! and the only friends max ACTUALLY made WERE BECAUSE OF SAM. but if you consider that if max didn't keep playing thevideogame SAM made at prom night, and considering the fact sam wouldn't exist if i chose max, max would've become way more social after that prom, as it's shown in his flirty behavior when talking to momma bosco, he would probably attract dozens of girls and be so popular amongst everyone, but would he be happy?

not really... :(

anyways, i think sam might have made max more introverted than he could've been (and pls let's thank him for it, I CAN'T IMAGINE the possibility of max being a straight rizz-and-bitches-haver motherfucker in an alternate reality...), and we know that, when max suffers from lack of sam, he becomes lonely. theres nobody there for him anymore.

if we look back into the cartoon for a second, we can see that sam and max's relationship means a LOT to max. the cartoon max is UNDOUBTEDLY the sweetest version from the rest of the medias max appears on, and therefore, probably the most expressive one as well, that way we can see max express how his relationship with sam means so much to him, to the point that if they weren't friends, max's life would be PRETTY GOD DAMN TERRIBLE!-

DON'T GET ME WRONG! sam WILL be depressed without max aswell, but to some extent, he can go on. meanwhile, max is basically not able to function properly without sam, and ends up in bad places.

AND AGAIN: DON'T GET ME WRONG! that does NOT mean sam loves max ANY LESS! he cares about max just as much as max cares about him, and, as sam is way better than max at portraying his emotions, since in the games we always play from HIS point of view and know HIS perspective about basically EVERYTHING. and it is CLEARLY shown in LITERALLY EVERY PIECE OF MEDIA OF THIS FRANCHISE, JUST HOW IMPORTANT MAX IS TO SAM, they both end up being open about how they love eachother, even if they arent open about ALL of their stuff, there isn't a single moment where these two doubt that the other cares about them. they openly know how much the other cares about them. sam just expresses it better in every media, while max is a little more close in relation to that, because he doesn't like taking things seriously and showing empathy, he thinks of love as a weakness, hence the persona he portrays being a complete sociopath that does not care for anything that does not involve being hilariously unhinged, he portrays his mental instability as a complete joke, because that's what he thinks he is, a pure comic relief, which is not wrong, but he takes that role too seriously, to the point that he thinks showing humanity can be considered as unfunny, and, therefore, not relevant. but still, as i said, his actions show how important sam is to him.

more the devil's playhouse spoilers later in this section because it is literally SUCH A COMPLEX SEASON i'm literally OBCESSED with it i could talk about it for HOURS, this season literally changes the perspective of the characters completely, we see a WHOLE NEW SIDE OF THE PROTAGONISTS THAT WE HAVE NEVER GOTTEN SO INTO IT BEFORE, hence the reason this fucking game rented an apartment in my fucking mind since like i think two years now and it refuses to get the FUCK out. it makes you think and it makes you care SO MUCH MORE about the characters and it's SO WELL WRITTEN UGH I LOVE SEASON 3 SO MUCH. and c'mon, it's clear the main focus of season 3 is sam and max's relationship (hence why i love this season so much, besides it being really good of course), this game explores how much they help, care and generally NEED eachother. and this is done both in a subtle and in a direct way, you've gotta look a bit more into max to truly understand him as a character, in special, you've gotta look a bit more into his super-ego, which reveals a WHOLE other side of max we didn't know before. meanwhile, the way they portray sam's point of view about max is generally the same as this franchise does in every piece of media.

he's openly very worried about him, worried he'll lose him, he does everything to save max every time, because he also cannot be truly happy without his little buddy... :(

in every piece of media, sam is portrayed to go through basically every stage of grief every time he's separated from max (god they're so codependent they literally joke about it themselves LMAO), in the unfinished comic where max dies for example (please purcell finish that comic i'm desperate), sam seems completely purposeless at the final panel. (which happens SO MUCH THROUGHOUT THIS FRANCHISE, I SWEAR THIS MOTHERFUCKER DIES SO MUCH---)

oh and by the way:

⚠️ MORE SEASON 3 SPOILERS AHEAD!!! ⚠️

⚠️ BEWARE!!! ⚠️

ok so, speaking about max's deaths, i GOTTA talk about season 3, and how it expresses the loneliness of sam PERFECTLY to whoever's playing. it portrays how much sam misses max, because WHOEVER'S PLAYING STARTS MISSING HIM TOO!! i mean, two whole seasons of this duo, to suddently be separated for a whole episode, go back to normal, then spend ANOTHER WHOLE EPISODE WITHOUT MAX TOO?? HOW CAN WE NOW MISS MAX! how can't we miss their conversations, miss their jokes, and just miss their relationship in general! it just feels... wrong, to not have max be there around sam. and that's probably what the game wants us to feel! it makes us understand the rage he feels after losing his little buddy in episode three! and it makes us understand the depression and panic sam goes through episode 5, and the NEED to bring him back NO MATTER THE CIRCUMSTANCES! it's not JUST to save the city. sam NEEDS max back. you play the game and care about them because they made you laugh, but, when things get serious, all the player wishes is to go back to normal, so you can have the good time you had with these characters before, you NEED sam to get max back, because you KNOW sam NEEDS him. you want them to be together. you want them to be okay. you want a happy ending, because c'mon THEY'RE SAM & MAX! THEY DESERVE A HAPPY ENDING! c'mon, every episode ends up with sam saving the day (max helping of course, but mainly there to be a funny little guy who also serves as a prop), and then they both end up happily ever after! but... this season is a little more complicated. sam's main priority this season was to have max be ok. he wanted to protect him, max went through such bad stuff in this season that weren't even max's fault, so all sam wants is for him to be okay! max doesn't deserve to suffer! and sam feels as if he HAS to protect him. since max doesn't seem to be able to do that by himself.

but... the twist is...

for the first time in this franchise

sam fails.

he fails to keep it all together as always, he fails to solve it all in a way that would make everyone happy.

he fails to save his little buddy. (fuck i'm getting teared up)

and BOY...

does sam feels guilty.

they saved the city, but... at what cost?

max's life, and, consequently, sam's happiness.

max is sam's sun. he wants him to be okay... he needs HIM in general. and he's always sure he's managed to make sure his partner's fine. he literally made a solemn vow to protect max at whatever cost.

but not this time.

then...

the credits roll.

he lost his little buddy. and he thinks it's his fault.

....

nAH SIKE MAX FROM AN ALTERNATE DIMENSION WHERE SAM DIES USES THE TIME MACHINE TO GO BACK TO A REALITY WHERE SAM IS ALONE SO THEY CAN BE TOGETHER AGAIN

but... when max tries to joke about it and treat like it's all a joke...

both remain silent. and max realizes it's not a joking matter. its probably the toughest situation both had to go through. and they know it.

usually they joke about things, since that's their way of communicating, they never take anything seriously, they're always trying to be funny to make the other laugh (insert banang gag here) because their partner's happiness makes them feel achieved.

but this time it's not like this.

they keep quiet for some really long seconds...

theeeen they come back to normal!

the relief that comes to everyone, sam, max & the player, when they come back to joking and just being silly goofy little guys, i can't even begin to explain how relieving it is to have sam & max back! their dynamic! their conversations! their chemistry! it's just immaculate.

one could say "they're repressing their emotions! they should talk about everything they went through! not just ignore all of that and move on!"

but i don't think so.

even though sam is known for comically over-explaining stuff, and max is known to need stuff being explained to him, due to his fish memory and alienation of everything that surrounds him...

they don't need to talk now. they both know what they went through. and both know how awful it is.

they know themselves so well to the point the don't need to talk about how much they love and care for eachother...

they already know. :)

oh i just remembered i was being angsty about them being separated so hey fun fact after the season 3 finale sam is forced to live the rest of his days knowing that his max is dead! and live with an extremely flawed alternate timeline copy who doesn't remember anything from the last three years of their lives! but he's fine with it because he was genuinely about to snap without max so he can't do much about it lmao that's how much he needs max and doesn't complain about the alternate version because he know his little buddy ALSO has been through a LOT.

lmao sorry i couldn't resist i had to be angsty for at least a bit more

⚠️SPOILERS OVER!!⚠️

back to normal programming! >:3

ok not gonna lie i'm kinda tired of writing about how much they love eachother because COME ON MAN we ALL KNOW how they both care and need for one another.

oh wait i had an ask didn't i?

ok lemme check it again wAIT FUCK NO-

THERE CAN'T BE SAM WITHOUT MAX THEY BOTH ARE MADE FOR EACHOTHER THEY'RE A TWO IN ONE PACKAGE THEY CAN'T BE TRULY HAPPY WITHOUT ONE ANOTHER

DO YOU KNOW WHAT SAM'S PERSONAL HELL IS? YEAH THAT'S RIGHT. BEING WITHOUT MAX. SAM WOULD DO ANYTHING TO HAVE MAX WITH HIM FOREVER AND MAX WOULD TOO. MAX LITERALLY DREAMS THEY CAN LEAVE AND DIE TOGETHER. BOTH CANNOT IMAGINE LIFE WITHOUT EACHOTHER. AND EVERY TIME THEY'RE SEPARATED THEY PANIC AND FREAK OUT.

i love how i don't even have to speculate how would sam be without max as i did with max before in this essay, SAM LITERALLY SAYS THAT HIMSELF! AND I QUOTE:

"without max, i'd be just another grim loner, skulking through the seedy armpits of the city, assaulting crooks and assorted crook-like punks in a humorless, over-narrated fashion. sure, it’d probably sell like granny panties in a nunnery, but would I be happy? not really..."

AND PEOPLE COULD SAY "OH BUT IN THE CARTOON SAM GETS OVER MAX-" SHUT UP SHUT UP YOU DON'T KNOW THEM LIKE I DO!!!! SAM HIMSELF SAID HE WOULD NOT BE FUCKING HAPPY WITHOUT MAX!!!!!! THEY NEED EACHOTHER!!!!!!!!

...

anyways imma pretend i didn't receive this ask and you pretend you never asked this capiche? sam and max need to coexist and wouldn't be able to keep their shit together if eachother didn't exist &/or live with them

anyways i quoted sam before i feel the need to quote some max sentences!!!

"don’t be such a worrywart, sam. if it makes you feel any better, I PROMISE to take you with me when I merge with the godhead!"

oh and there was that one time where they had this dialogue that still kills me to this day:

sam: "if you die first, promise to wait up for me, okay little buddy?"

max: "oh sam! when i die, i'm taking you with me!"

i swear they're so- *gunshots*

anyways have some photographic evidence of why they need eachother to be happy if you're still not convinced:

buh bye :3c

Explain Sam and max to someone who's entire knowledge on it is this blog

this is the best infodump opportunity thank you

sam and max are two guys that are kind of detectives but not really, they solve strange cases and sometimes save the world. The franchise is about the two of them going through weird adventures, which is what you expect in a comedy cartoon series, but really what makes this franchise so fun is well, sam and max themselves

They are a very funny and endearing duo, they play off each other really well, max is the crazier one and while sam is more down to earth he shares a lot of that chaos too, they just get each other perfectly and they have been friends since forever. Sam tends to infodump and overexplain every situation they are in, Max just listens and forgets what they were talking about and immediately jumps into action without thinking, but he likes to listen to Sam :) Max tends to talk about very weird and scary things and Sam just laughs it off and thinks he's cute and says his catchphrase, which is 'you crack me up little buddy'. They are both extremely co-dependent of each other but it's cute, it's one of my favorite things about them, how much they need each other, even if this universe they live in is extremely absurd and you usually don't take things too seriously, the one thing that is always very real and very sincere is that these two care a lot about each other. There are multiple moments where you genuinely get really emotional over their relationship, I have cried about the funny dog and rabbit multiple times, trust me

This franchise has comics, a tv show and several games. Overall they are all good, but I do have a lot of criticisms for all of them, some stuff has aged really bad and it's important to acknowledge, let's not pretend it isn't there

Apart from sam and max there are a bunch of different side characters depending on the media, most of them are really fun and make the series better, i really like when sam and max have friends and i really like when sam and max hate someone together. They also even adopt several kids

I feel like the one thing this franchise is well-known for is that these two guys are gay (well sam is actually bi) and as a sam and max expert i have to say: this is very correct, they are indeed pretty gay. The thing about these two is that it's the rare case where it's not just the fandom shipping two guys that are next to each other, their relationship is the main core of this franchise and there are several moments of these two talking about being partners for life and making comments about being attracted to the other and they have been married multiple times and- *insanely big compilation of all their gay moments* there is actually way too much in this franchise that indicates these two might be a little gay. In fact Max is like, canonically gay, because another one of the catchphrases and running jokes of the franchise is that Max makes a comment about finding women attractive only for Sam to say 'max you dont even like girls' and max is like 'i forgot' (max has several moments where he forgets stuff, this is just one of them). I personally also see Max as aro, since he talks multiple times about disliking romance, and overall i think his relationship with sam doesn't have a specific label, they are just gay life partners and it's awesome

I could go on for hours, if anyone has questions about sam and max i'd be happy to answer, i love these two so much and i can talk about them for several weeks. Thank you so much for giving me an excuse to infodump about them
