dry bones can harm no one

I will never get over how this boy starts off begging the world to Witness™️ his spectacular death, how he yearns to be seen and for his end to be seen by Immortan Joe, how his WHOLE CHARACTER revolves around 'dying historic on the Fury Road'.

Just like any Warboy, Immortan Joe is his everything. He would die for him, kill for him, eat, sleep, live and breathe for him. But all it takes is one small act of kindness from Capable, someone talking to him about his unavoidable death in a way that is not glorifying, and that image of the Immortan shatters.

And in the end when he dies, historic, on the Fury Road, he doesn't call out for the world to witness him. He doesn't ask to be seen by any other Warboy or even the Immortan Joe himself.

Arthur: sorry? What was that? I was busy biting off my own fingers/stabbing myself in the throat to avoid choking/cauterizing my own open wounds/willingly drowning myself to move dimensions/ sewing closed my own open stomach.

Martin and Jon: …. There’s a woman here full of bugs

"Don't look don't look" the shadows breathe Whispering me away from you

I'd go as far to say that the driving force in most other timelines that led to a bad end was, unfortunately, violence. We see the start of the 'bad timeline' when Jayce chooses to kill Viktor on the whim of Mage Viktor's instructions. We see the 'intended' ending where Jayce and Viktor fight in the final episode (more violence!), and it's only when something else comes in and gives Jayce time to pour his heart out, do they resolve things.

When he’s your eyes and you’re his heart and you literally can’t live without each other

Locked in so hard with this one that time did not exist.
