So, right now I'm thinking that Max has taken social cues from Ryder. Specifically, as a guide on both how to be more subtle (don't do these things that get attention, like fighting), and how to be a bit more naturally outgoing. The advice sometimes conflicts.<br/><br/>Also, unless somebody wants to know that Max is a pile of lies, I guess that Nikki could know. (That won't stop me from coming up with ways that others could have found out.)
