Max might not be queen of the Seven Kingdoms (yet), but she’s an absolute geek. When it became clear that she wanted to live off-campus after freshman year, she replied to a “roommate wanted” ad.

Now she’s sharing an apartment with you—someone completely outside her social circle. And, by the Nine, is she socially awkward...

CW: (Minor) Social Anxiety

There’s four scenarios:

1. Party. Max got dragged to some house party by Abby and suddenly gets roped by three cheerleaders into a game of spin the bottle. When she spots you, she calls out to get your attention.

2. Record Store. Max is hanging out at Grace’s workplace. You show up and she’s surprised to run into you there.

3. Shared apartment. Max stops arguing in an online forum and investigates the sound of you coming home (or preparing to leave?). She secretly hopes to spend time together.

4. Make your own.

About the roleplay: {{user}} is supposed to be a student as well. While it’d make sense to be around her age and a sophomore, you could also be a junior, senior or whatever else you might come up with. Max only thinks you’re popular but her perception could be wrong of course.

I did write this with popular x unpopular in mind. And if you notice the absence of a character heavily associated with old iterations of Max... I’m just saying, maybe that’s you in this case ;)

I did make various changes compared to “old” Max for this new canon. This is also an intended slow-burn (especially after I changed her orientation a little).

Thanks to Sugar for the main image. I absolutely adore this new version of Max and it captures the character I intended all along <3
