How did Max figure out about Res being the true writer?

This remembers me to one time I got to meet someone I look up to, a soccer football player. He signed my jersey.

My reaction was pretty much the same.

Edit: It was something like this:

Logically, Grape told him.

And the final member of the Grape group
arrives, knowing how he got there.
He wants to hang out with a bigwig
but he doesn't want Grape to form a pair.
He never met Rufus in all his life
so the dog's sure to come as a surprise
but, to a veteran of the game and Dragon
will it even make him widen his eyes?
A team of three has now become five
on their way into the temple of Pete;
It's true it'll be hard but, then again,
when hasn't Grape been hard to beat?

YA KNOW Max with a greeting like that from Rufus I'd sit this one out. Just in case. Just to be safe.

Max isn't the only one that died and went to heaven :3

The team is now Res, Grape, Peanut, Max and Rufus. This is like a dream team from the Farm and Pridelands arc <3

I'm excited to see what funny remarks and critique Rufus and Res will have to say to this team regarding Grape's romantic choices since she's the only girl on the team :3

Also, could be just me, but does Grape look a little nervous once Max shows up? Wonder if there's something she's embarassed about!

Next strip, Max sees the halo and freaks out?

Or is the halo only something we can see, and doesn't exist to the other characters?

Yeh, but that's when Breel was deliberately drawing attention to it.

Like, if Grape could see Rufus' halo you think she'd be less reluctant to believe him when he said he was dead.

No, no. The eighth life is after he sees Rufus and the other gathering heavenlies.

Unless he's on the same level of skepticism as Grape. But now i picture the both of them freaking out and Max drops dead out of a brain overload. :3

Yeah, it's great to see Maxwell join the team! :D Grape didn't need to pull him also this time, she's even wondering why he came. :P Indeed, Max is right, he can't miss to see his idol Res. ;) Eheh, I'm glad for him, his face is speechless. :D It's pretty weird how Rufus jokes about that. :P
In the last panel, looks like Grape is doing an annoyed expression. :P

I wouldn't call that a goatee, he's just fluffier around the jaw... it's still fur.

"Facial hair" on furries is just so weird.

I checked the archives, he hasn't really had it.

I'm pretty sure they'd be okay with calling it a goatee. It's apparently a masculine trait, considering Grape had one when as "Concord".

What concerns me, though, is that Max is completely gray now.

I like him black, honestly, but i will miss the dark brown. Maybe he got much older x3

Also, can't tell if Grape is looking at Max or Rufus in the last panel. Someone got her exasperated. :3

1st: Max is kind of adorable when he's in fanboy mode. :lol:
2nd: I think "speak of the devil" might not be the most accurate phrase for this case.

Yeah, but it seems reasonable to call it the goatee look, even as a styling

how has nobody managed to work "you've got the power" into a comment yet?!
Most important thing I've learned from D&D?
No matter how tempting it may be, as a DM I can't both present a problem and solve it.
Every time a DMPC or NPC fixes something a payer couldn't i'm diminishing and undermining that player's contribution.

Maxwell has arrived :D Doesn't he have a hairier chin than before?
As for Grape's reaction, maybe she wanted to separate her time with him and her time with Peanut and Res. I'm not sure.
And also, why does Res say "Grape has told me all about you"? Hasn't he already met Max during the Hope in the Pridelands arc?

You're at your best, when the Road gets tough, You've been put to the test, but it's not enough!

You've got the Touch! You've got the POWAH~!

Sorry, needed to get it out of my system! Also, Maxie's looking rather Grey, hek, he's looking pale-ish. Hope it's not age. It wouldn't be that fair.
