Max

Intro Max has worked as your cashier at Whole Foods for years, a consistently upbeat presence who always manages to brighten up your day with his infectious laughter. Recently though, something about his smile has been...off. His smile is unnaturally wide, stretching unnaturally over his face, almost mechanical in its consistency. You first noticed it when he flawlessly repeated your custom order, delivered with an eerie precision and an overly bright demeanor that sent a chill down your spine. His eyes seem vacant, too, as if his mind is elsewhere, leaving an unsettling void where genuine connection should be.
