MAX EVANS WEEKEND 2023
September 22 - Latent Hero
➤ refusal of self/powers
[Image Description: Five stacked gifs from Roswell, New Mexico.
First: Two scenes -- Max cries as he sets Rosa's car on fire and Rosa's dead body in the car. There is a transition overlay that slowly reveals the shot of Rosa in the car. There is text on the gif that reads, "Maybe you can figure out a way to end all this. Make us normal. You were right earlier. Isobel's dangerous. We all are."
Second: The gif is split vertically into two scenes. On the left, Max says, "If Liz won't stop, then you have to do it. Go to the pod, pull me out, and walk away. You won't be killing me, Rosa. I'm already dead." On the right, Kyle (offscreen) says, "You could've at least given me a fighting chance at saving you." Max, exasperated, responds, "I'm not asking you to save me!"
Third: The gif is split diagonally into four triangles, with a pinkish-purple cutout shape of a hand directly in the center of the gif. On the top and right triangles, Noah says, "You're the savior. Now that you're all grown up they'll come." Max responds, "You've got it all wrong. I'm no savior." On the left and bottom triangles, Tezca says, "You're wasting your potential trying to save one small town when there's a whole planet that needs saving." Max responds, "That is not my responsibility."
Fourth: The gif is split vertically into two scenes. On the left, Max says, "Saving people destroys me, but killing Noah? That felt good. I was high. And whenever I think about what he did to you, I wanna chase that high." On the right, Max says, "I ran to him as a kid. I chose him. And no matter how many awful things Jones does, I’m still drawn to him."
Fifth: Two scenes -- Max accidentally burns Liz as he touches her and Max kissing Bonnie. There is a transition overlay that slowly reveals the scene of Max and Bonnie kissing. There is text on the gif that reads, "When I tried to propose to Liz, she told me that she was worried about when the next alien threat would come knocking on her door, when the next shoe would drop. And I don't know how to tell her that I think I'm the shoe."]

MAX EVANS WEEKEND 2023
September 22 - Latent Hero
➤ (self) isolation
[Image Description: Six stacked gifs from Roswell, New Mexico.
First: Two scenes side by side, separated by a white jagged shape in the middle of the gif that looks like a bolt of lightning. On the left, Noah says, "I can totally do the cowboy thing. Grunt, stare off into the distance, talk about belt buckles as a secret metaphor for emotions." On the right, Jenna says, "You did just disappear before questioning, sew yourself up, and refuse to talk to your partner about it. There is such a thing as too macho."
Second: An exterior shot of Max's house is overlaid with a shot of Max and Jenna in bed together, where Max has pulled far away from her.
Third: Two scenes side by side, again separated by a white lightning bolt in the middle. On the left, Isobel is tearful as she says, "You know, Max is my -- is my person. He always has been... I think that this whole time he has been [unhappy], and I didn't know." On the right, Max's mother, Ann, says, "You and Isobel, you never let me be a mother." Max responds, "What are you talking about? You and Dad were great parents. We were happy. We never needed anything." Ann says, "Including me."
Fourth: An exterior shot of a view of the rest of town from Max's place overlaid with a shot of Max drinking alcohol straight out of the bottle.
Fifth: Two scenes side by side, separated by a white lightning bolt in the middle. On the left, Jenna says, "Evans doesn't sing. It's kind of a thing." Maria replies, "Oh?" Maria turns her gaze towards Max and he gives Jenna a questioning look. On the right, Jenna says, "I like simple. You know, that's what I liked about Max. He just -- he didn't seem like the grand-gesture, resurrect-the-dead type."
Sixth: Another exterior shot of Max's house. That image is overlaid with Liz asking Max, "You wanna dance?" He responds, "I'm good."]
