My name's Maximilian Justice Powers, and I'm comin' clean. Don't think anybody here even knows my full name.

My dad died when I was 12 in a border skirmish with Blue Moon. My mom washed laundry for a living to support me and her. I was a crummy kid after my dad died, and I never did what my mom told me to do. I got into the wrong sorta people at school. I'm sorry I did that now, and I don't think I ever told her after I grew up. Army straightened me out when I was 16.

When I was 15 I used anabolic steroids for about a year, maybe a year and a half. I was a big, angry kid, they made me bigger and angrier. When I got into the army I had to get clean. Been clean ever since. But I always tell people I'm all natural. I am. But I wasn't always.

Killed three men when I was 17. I learned to stop countin' after that. But I'm probably directly or indirectly responsible for the deaths of hundreds of army men. I'll tell you it was for a good cause, that it was done in the defense of the people of Macroland and Omegaland. But I ain't gonna lie and tell you I ain't killed before. 'Cause I have.

My best friend Grit and I were in love with the same woman, Nell. She's now my boss. And she's married to my best friend. When she asked me if I was okay with her marryin' my best friend I lied and told her I was. I wasn't. When Grit asked me to be his best man I said I was happy for him. I wasn't. I sat there and I cried as I hugged him and told him I was happy for him when I wasn't. I think he knew, though. We both pretended it we both didn't know, though. Sometimes its hard to go back home and see them together.

One time for a week I was Green's Blastoise and another time for a week I was Bulba. If at some time you ever thought one of them was actin' weird for a week, it was probably 'cause we'd switched bodies. I guess that happens a lot here. But I didn't tell nobody when it happened to me.

If I ever told you somethin' that wasn't true, I'm sorry. If you want to ask me somethin' about me, now's your chance.

[Oh my God.]

I wish everyone was as honest as you were!

[mailcalltime.livejournal.com]

I don't know what spurred this sudden confession but I hope you feel better getting everything off your chest.

[That is the coolest middle name ever!]

[Vinnie read this and basically choked on his juice in a desperate attempt to not spit his drink over the keyboard]

So... you just told everyone your lifestory.

...Feel better?

[Off Campus Action full of Action is happening right here and right now]

What's up with the big confessional, Max? You find religion or something?

[thewunderkind]

Oh ewww I did not need to know all of that.

[ihaswillpower.livejournal.com]

Bet it took a lot of willpower to say all of that.

[Though he's not sure if you're safe to be around, simply because you have killed before and well... he doesn't want to end up as a statistic]

[badasscopters.livejournal.com]

... Justice. Powers.

You ain't making that up?

[It sounds like something out of some dumb comic book what the hell he is secretly kind of jealous.]

[boxingmidget.livejournal.com]

[Wow.]

Wow.

[That was pretty...wow.]

Feel good confessin' like that?

MAXIMILIAN JUSTICE POWERS. RAIDEN KNOWS A GUY NAMED MAXIMILIAN JUSTICE POWERS. NOT ONLY KNOWS BUT IS BROPALS WITH. OH MY GOD MAX YOU SOMEHOW BECAME EVEN COOLER IN RAIDEN'S BOOK IF THAT WAS EVEN FEASIBLY IMAGINABLE.]

[Private, hackable]

[icequeen-aran.livejournal.com]

[That was. A large amount of information. Duly noted, Maximilian Justice Powers. WAIT THAT. THAT WAS YOU WHEN BULBA AND THE VINES AND THE BLEEDING AAUUUGH you totally had her fooled.]

I can respect honest and the courage it must of taken to lay everything out like that. Did something spur this, Max?

SPAMMING ALL THE BLONDES

[Oh ho ho how delicious. Your autobiography handed on a silver platter will be noted and remembered, Mister Powers. If only everyone could be as forthcoming about themselves as you.]

[orangestarbeats]

[This is. Awkward.]

So, um... Feelin' any better? About whatever it was that brought this on?

[all-range-mode.livejournal.com]

That's one hell of a life story.

[That is hands down the greatest middle name of all time. I'm jealous. Mine's probably something lame like Lloyd or Larry something.]

[redisaloser.livejournal.com]

Uh, care to enlighten me?

[will-be-god.livejournal.com]

I see.

You confess to violence yet you dismiss it. Interesting.
