If he did kick her out, she wouldn't come back, not of her own accord. Not any time soon.
The distance seems to calm her down, too. Her hands open up again.
"I can't help it with you, either," Max gives him that much. "You get loud, I get loud. I'm just going to tell you the truth. And it's a lot. It's not easy." But she's trying, so hard, on that.
Temba might be a break, but if gates open up here, anything could happen. Would it still be a break if the monsters came back? If Vecna showed?
She tries to look at Billy, "Vecna, Henry Creel, was," she corrects herself, though was isn't wrong, "is some creepy child serial killer. He and El have issues from their past. Maybe if I get to talk to her when I get back, I can get more specifics."
Max just chews on the inside of her mouth and takes a seat on the floor, back against another wall, eyes on Billy.
"She sent him to the Upside-Down. He got all twisted up. He was behind the whole Mindflayer thing. He controls the monsters from there. He controlled the Mindflayer. It controlled you. And he's still killing people back home." Killing her. Omissions aren't entirely lies. She fiddles with her walkman inside her jacket, running her fingers over it. Vecna's not here. Maybe they'll never have to worry about it.
"He's trying to break Hawkins so the Upside-Down spills over into our world. It's been a long term plan. So you...he used your body to do his dirty work for him. Now he's doing things more directly." And it disgusts her. Billy spent his whole fucking life a victim, just for Vecna to kill him off as one.
