Oh my god Rose, stop being so pretentious and condescending!

Like it’s anti-social to let fate go ahead and have Jade not-kill him, anyway. That makes no sense, if anything Dave has got some depression, maybe dysthymia, going on, and he’s definitely got a suicidal side. 

In a different world he probably shouldn’t have let Jade not-kill him, but I’m trusting that the Knight of Time knows what he’s doing when it comes to changing future events.
