Your gateway to endless inspiration
tyson’s family-
his grandpa, the only one to raise him
his dad, an absent dad who left his toddler son and added to his abandonment issues but still managed to save himself with this moment
but you know who his real bro is?
hiro?
no.
It’s this dude.
to me personally, he’s the closest thing to a brother Tyson ever had (unlike *cough cough* hiro). Tyson especially was so protective and defensive of him (mostly in the first two seasons and before Max’s match with Mystel).
these two will forever be best friends [brother from another mother] to me.
After many years in the Bakuten Shoot Beyblade community, I’ve finally mustered the courage to complete and publish my first fanfic in this universe (though it’s not my first story overall).
If anyone is interested in reading a fanfic about Max’s 21st birthday, I’ll leave the summary and links here!
——————————————————————————
Summary:
“Max has always been the heart of the group, known for his charisma and easy smile — even in defeat. Now, as he approaches his 21st birthday, he returns to Japan after three years away, eager to reunite with Tyson, Hilary, and Kenny. However, time has passed, everyone has changed, and he’s unsure where he fits in this new dynamic. With his friends always busy and his family an ocean away, Max continues to hide his feelings and disappointments behind his usual smiles.
What he doesn’t realize is that, for months, his friends have been planning a grand celebration — not just for his birthday, but for their long-awaited reunion. Amid laughter, smiles, and moments of nostalgia, Max’s birthday arrives, and he comes to see that, while life is full of changes, some things don’t have to change at all.”

Thank you for your time! I hope you enjoy it!
(I also tried drawing a picture of Max as a bonus, but since I haven't drawn in years, this... peculiar result is what I ended up with sksk.)
