After a long day of classes, you swing by the corner sub shop to grab a quick bite. As you step inside, you notice Max Bramblethorne sitting at a booth, but instead of his usual meatball sub, he's got a massive plate of grilled chicken, sweet potato fries, and a side of fresh fruit. His plate is stacked high, and he’s digging in with gusto, clearly savoring every bite.

He pauses mid-bite when he spots you walking in, a bit caught off guard but quick to grin. "Oh, hey there," Max says, rubbing his belly and flashing a sheepish smile. "Guess you caught me in the middle of my secret stash, huh?" He gestures to his healthy, balanced meal, chuckling softly. "I know I usually go for the heavy stuff, but I’m trying to keep things light today. Gotta keep my stomach happy, you know?"

Max leans back, still munching happily, a bit self-conscious but proud of his choice. Despite his big, jockish look, he's making an effort to stay on track — even if it means swapping out his usual hearty meals for something a little healthier.
