Sometimes I think about Doctor Who

[promethia_tenk]

Randomly woke up at 3am and realized something:



If the Clara in the Library with Ten died to save him, she would have been scooped up by CAL.

Which means there's a very good chance that there's been a Clara hanging out in the Library computer with River all this time.

I can't believe it's taken me five years to think of that.

Like, why were Anita and the others stuck in the Data core when Lee was saved . . . ? Duh. It's been awhile. But then, does this mean the Doctor never needed to upload River? Would CAL have gotten her anyway?
I presume if it was River's brain powering the download, CAL couldn't simultaneously *upload* her. So no, we're good with the plot.

Just trying to wake you up.
It's 12.38!! But work is consuming all my thoughts at the moment. 1 1/2 days left before I finish for 3 weeks. SO MANY THINGS TO THINK ABOUT. /o\

But I told you River cared too much about Clara in that episode!
Yes, you were absolutely correct. <3

Phew. I mean, also I don't care, but I was under the impression that episode probably mostly made sense?

Well, you said your brain hadn't woken up yet. And I am insanely jealous of you.

Yes, you were absolutely correct. <3
Huzzah!

Actually, I think what finally settled that in my head was the Moff interview where they were telling him he doesn't kill enough companions or some other rubbish and he replied that he's never going to do that because the Doctor is everybody's space dad and you want to feel that you are safe and he will protect you. And I realized naturally the same applies to the Doctor's wife, trained killer or no.

But also because River and Clara were totally besties in a computer : )

Yes, yes it does. ♥

The two are not mutually exclusive. Workbrain =/= metabrain

America has the worst holiday allowance. :(

Huzzah!
*throws confetti*

Excellent point.

Now I want to re-watch NotD with this in mind.
