Challenge
June 2024 Drabble Challenge: Get mad, Max.
So I went and watched Furiosa and lemme tellya, I thought it was cinema gold. Absolutely a wild, fun ride. With that in mind, this month's word play is "Get mad, Max." That's your prompt. You don't need to use the phrase at all, just let it inspire you to tell me a prose story in exactly 100 words. It can be Mad Max related, or something angry, or crazy, or post-apocalyptic. Hell, steal some go-juice and head off to Bartertown to duke it out in the Thunderdome. Or not. Whatever. Blow my mind with something epic, but do use standard English and punctuation or honestly I aint even gonna read it. Not that that probably matters to you, but there is a little prize involved. Everybody likes prizes. I'll pick the winner sometime in July, no need to tag me.
Min and Max
Minnie yawned and Max sneered at her.
"You're so lazy, Min!" He said, "Once I'm allowed to, I'll go running across the yard, past the front gate, and probably straight to the park. What fun!"
"Cool it, Maxie." Minnie said in a slow drawl, "You know we're not allowed to go yet"
"True," Max sighed, "When will this end? I don't enjoy lounging around like you!"
"You should try it sometimes," Minnie suggested, "It’s pure bliss."

Covid restrictions ended and eventually the postman appeared too. At the window, Minnie meowed:
“Your arch nemesis is here. Now, go mad, Max!”
