now the world is only white noise, frequencies that I can't understand

[ Well, that was some shit! Uh. To avoid pulling a Junpei and retreating somewhere, Max instead gathers up a couple people to help and goes to the first floor restaurant to set up some food, because fuck asking everyone to use the elevators. After getting some batter mixed, she writes up some notes! ]

Hey. Food in the first floor restaurant, if you're hungry.
Breakfast and burgers! :)

- Max, Pyrrha, Arianna

[ True to her word, there's a steady stream of waffles, pancakes, and some burgers coming out of the kitchen, as well as a bunch of (non-alcoholic) drinks on a table with a sign that says "BYOB if you want booze." ]

Well, I graciously accept your invitation into your kingdom.

[She finally makes her way to the top of the boat and moves up to beside Max. From here, she can get a pretty good look at the fake junkyard around them.]

This is a place in Arcadia Bay, isn't it? It must hold some special memories.

Yeah. It's Chloe's- it's the junkyard where Chloe hangs out a lot. So I guess technically I'm just holding the kingdom for her. Max Caulfield, Steward of American Rust.

Oh. [There's that name again. Huh.] Well, it's surely a big responsibility. But I have no doubt you'll be able to hold the fort down until Chloe comes back. You're a responsible person.

I'll do my best, anyway. [ She leans back, looks up at the sky. ] Chloe came here to beat things up, usually, I think. And now I'm here to just... just looking for somewhere quiet.

[It's a nice sky, even if Pyrrha knows it's fake. She leans back against the ship, gaze following Max's.]

A place that you can get away from it all, right? I understand... I had a place just like that.

...It's been a long day, hasn't it?
