River, they were your parents. I’m sorry, I didn’t even think. — It doesn’t matter. — Of course it matters.

twissy+clara is so fascinating to me because clara, when you pay attention, is just a representation of the way that missy loves

clara is a gift, missy picked her out, she chose her. clara is a bouquet of flowers or a box of chocolates, she’s a gift and she’s a trap (“I know traps, traps are my flirting”)

missy giving clara to twelve was a love letter. claras control issues, her perfectionism, her intelligence, her obsessiveness, her selfishness, she is as close to the master in personality as any companion has ever been but as close to the doctor in personality too. missy giving her to him was “look at how well I know you. no one could’ve given you someone so perfectly catered to your every need. someone who could ruin you the way i love to. because no one knows you like I do”

and then missy gets so jealous over her and it’s so funny because it’s like, this was you- you did this. you molded and chose her and gave him someone who is like you but who isn’t drenched in all the guilt and shame that the doctor holds from the childhood you shared and the awful things you’ve done to one another.

i wonder if the doctor erasing clara from his memory felt like a loss or a victory to missy. I wonder if he ever asked her about clara while she was in the vault and, if he did, what did she say? or does she just become this off-limits topic that sits uncomfortable between them that they’re both too scared or angry or hurt to acknowledge.

i could write an entire coming of age novel abt clara oswald and mels zucker’s toxic homoerotic whirlwind romantic girl-best-friendship that they definitely had in 2005. i will never let this headcanon go it’s canon to me at this point. clara definitely had a mental health crisis in her late teens that lined up w her mothers death and influenced the perfectionist coping mechanisms and control issues that started to become visible the longer she spent traveling with the doctor. mels both helped her through it and pushed her over the edge and is definitely also the reason that clara took so long to come to terms w her sexuality and attraction to women (bc it would mean acknowledging that she was in love w this woman who was such a complicated and defining person at such an awful time in her life). and i maintain that when river saw her in the dream conference with vastra & jenny she looked at her like that it wasnt bc she was jealous or possessive over the doctor but bc she recognized her from their teen years but couldn’t say anything bc of timelines or whatever. if she was jealous of anyone in that moment it definitely was not clara <3 don’t try me I’ll write the ya novel im serious

She’ll die on you, you know. She’ll blow away like smoke. How many have you lost? How many Claras?

There’s a little girl waiting in a garden. She’s going to wait a long while, so she’s going to need a lot of hope.

i love how with the doctor we painstakingly track their regeneration number and with the master we’re just like “ehh it’s some new guy now”

       Four and a half billion years? Why would you even do that to yourself?                                                                        I had a duty of care.
