Summary
Furiosa has spent most of her young adult life drifting from place to place, unable to find a steady job due to her tumultuous past. When her childhood friend Max offers her a place to stay and tells her about a job opening at the local mechanics, Furiosa starts to hope for some semblance of a normal life for the first time. And when she meets a bartender with an Australian accent who happens to also be Max's other roommate, her world starts to get both a bit brighter and a little more confusing.

Bookmark Notes:
AU where Furiosa is a mechanic haunted by her past, Jack is a bartender, and Max is a slob who works at a grocery store.

Summary
This is how Capable wants to remember Nux: his smile, the scars on his lips as he kissed her, how his eyes had been wide and full of awe when she took him inside of herself, the way he whispered that she gave him hope.
She wants to remember him by what was created between them, not by the hole he left behind.

Summary
To say that Nux was nervous about meeting Capable’s parents, however much adopted that they were, would’ve been an understatement. Capable had assured him that they would very much like the sweet boy she’d fallen in love with, but Nux wasn’t so sure. After all, he knew that he had a history and the fact that she insisted that her parents hadn’t been angels either didn’t soothe him.

Summary
Furiosa tries to imagine appearing to herself a year ago and explaining her present reality: a world where Jack had survived, and they had the freedom to really be together. If that version of herself could even seriously picture such a world, could imagine how they’d fill their days, she doubts the list would include falling asleep fully-clothed and exhausted most nights, Jack nodding off long before Furiosa is ready to stop planning at her worktable, his even breaths the soundtrack to her late-night tinkering.
—
Rebuilding the Citadel is hard work. Rebuilding the broken shards of her own humanity isn’t exactly easy, either. Fortunately, Furiosa has help for both - if she can learn how to accept it.

In a Dream You Saw a Way to Survive and You Were Full of Joy by NancyPants

Summary
The pain of his arms being lowered shocks Jack into consciousness. Or, the not-pain. He can tell that it should hurt, that it does on some level, but the rush of agony never comes. Some magic of adrenaline or brain chemistry blocks it from his foggy awareness, and he’s grateful - or, maybe he’s about to die from shock.
—
Jack loses consciousness in the barren Wasteland. He wakes up in the scrappy world outside of the Citadel, in the type of place he used to call nowhere. He wakes up again, really wakes up, years later.
There’s dark smoke on the horizon.

Ordinary People by KirkyPet
Fandoms: Mad Max: Fury Road, Mad Max Series (Movies), Christopher Brookmyre

Summary
Modern AU, small town physiotherapist clinic. Fury’s the physio, Max is a drifter with a gammy leg. Silly fluffy shippy nonsense with some sad bits and a pretty solid soundtrack. No car chases or shoot ‘em ups (all drama of that nature occurs off-stage).
Kind of a follow on from The Shipping Forecast, but no prior reading necessary.
Edit - technically this is a Brookmyre crossover since I nabbed a few of his characters plus a brief bit of plot for the closing chapters. But that’s it. If you’re looking for loads of Brookmyre you’ll be disappointed, and if you’ve no idea who he is, don’t be put off because that shouldn’t matter. I’m just citing because it’d be rude not to

And a hundred days after he left, Max comes back, admitting only to wanting to trade for supplies. But Furiosa knows there's more to it than that.

Summary
It's definitely a surprise to Max when he's made Head Boy his seventh year. He hadn't been a prefect, had thought most people took no notice of him other than the annoyingly persistent werewolf rumors (He wasn't a werewolf. He had, in fact, spent several full moons deliberately in the middle of the common room in hopes of discrediting the theory, to no avail).
