AN: Thanks to those who reviewed the first chapter! I was super excited. Aren't I such a dork? Anyway, try to guess who's talking in this chapter. I'll tell you at the end, but it's sorta obvious.

"Oh em gee, Max, check it out!"

"Check what out?"

"It's this eye massager! It like, vibrates your forehead!"

"That's cool. But do we really need it?"

"Yes!"

"Uh-huh. We'll do without it."

"Well, fine then. But- CHECK IT OUT!"

"What's so amazing this time?"

"It's a lime green purse with a huge buckle!"

"I can see that."

"Do you see it's potentiality though?"

"I don't think pontentiality is a word."

"Psh. Technicality."

". . ."

"Is technicality a word?"

"Last time I checked."

"Oh. Well, I'm okay then. So, the other day I saw the cutest- CHECK IT-"

"Yes, I get it. What is it?"

"It's . . . It's . . ."

"Oh. Wow. Please do not say-"

"I love it!"

"That."

"But Max! It has wings! Pleazies?"

"Don't you dare try Bambi eyes on me! I'm not looking!"

"Take your hands off of your eyes and just look at me for a second."

"No. A second is all it takes."

"But it's my birthday . . ."

". . . No it's not."

"In five and a half months it is."

"And I think that shirt can wait until then."

"Why can't Fang buy it for me?"

"If you can convince Fang to, I don't give a crap."

"But what about right now?"

"Because right now we need to buy groceries and everyone else is waiting."

"Why, Max? Why?"

"Be. Cause. I. Said. So."

"That's not even a good reason."

"It's a fine reason. I'm the leader. I decide."

"Why not?"

"Because."

"Because why?"

"Because waffles have squares in them."

". . . Why do waffles have squares anyway?"

"I don't know and I don't care."

"I think it's to balance out the world in all things."

". . . Sure. That works."

"I'm so philosophical, aren't I?"

"Yup, you could go become Ghandi if you wanted."

"Really?"

". . . Um . . ."

"Holy Saint Fang. CHECK. IT. OUT."

"Ugh. Again?"

"Max, I must have this."

"No, you must be insane."

"You must be insane to not want me to have this!"

"It's a giant purple plastic poodle."

"Exactly! It would be so great to have."

"Yeah. How are you gonna carry it when we're flying?"

". . . I'll make Iggy carry it."

"And what if Iggy doesn't want to?"

"Then I'll drop it on a random person's head and call it charity."

". . . You have a screwed-up view of charity."

"Thank you."

"That wasn't exactly a compliment."

"I know."

". . ."

". . ."

"Can we just pay and get out of here?"

"Believe me, I'd love to."

"Oh my gosh, Max, check it out!"

"Yes, that's what I'm trying to do with our food!"

"No, I mean check it out!"

"No. Come on, help me carry these groceries."

"Gee, how much crap did you buy, Max?"

"Don't even talk to me about buying crap."

"Why? Oh, check it out!"

"That's why."

"Oh."

". . ."

"Y'know, I can't wait until Christmas."

"I'll just bet you can't."

"We can go shopping together and buy presents . . ."

"Uh, I think you're taking someone else shopping next time."

"So there WILL be a next time!"

"Not with me there won't."

"Why?"

". . ."

"CHECK IT OUT!"

"That's why."

AN: So there's that. Give me feedback, or give me flames, I've been keeping these for too long. *pulls out marshmallows* Thanks for reading! (By the way, it was Max and Nudge. No duh. :)
