Maxie keeps a model boat that matches with the one in Archie's base, and takes such good care of it, that not even a spec of dust taints it, which could mean nothing.
Maxie refers to Archie as a friend and a rival, but never an enemy, and simply states they chose different paths, which could mean nothing.
In Masters, Maxie revealed part of why he keeps the rivalry going is because he knows Archie likely feels just as dedicated to his ideals, and wants to take his feelings into account, which could mean nothing.
In AniPoke, Maxie stayed on the island until Archie regained consciousness, even being seen standing behind Shelly and Archie, wanting to see if he's alright, even after Archie tried to drown the island under Kyogre's heavy influence, which could mean nothing.
In Alpha Sapphire, even when Archie was the one who awakened Kyogre, Maxie subtly refused to let him take all the blame acknowledging his own ideals faults (with words like our and we) + in the AS Delta Episode, Archie is shown to overtly blame himself, even when it's partially others fault... which could mean nothing.
The Magma grunt stating they used to be on the same team together, implying they used to be on good terms, and Maxie likely knew and cared for Archie (and likely still does), given Maxie's goal to help humanity would've always included Archie, which could mean nothing.
How in the Seafloor Cavern scene, Archie said he wished at least Shelly would understand, which implies that he feels misunderstood often, and how Maxie disagrees, but never once misreads Archie's intentions or methods, and shows an active desire to take Archie's feelings into account, which could mean nothing.

A Hardenshipping drawing I did for a friend last year, me and two other friends got together to draw a piece each for several of our friends so this is mine from one of them!
The context is them looking at a crack in a glacier.
