First of all, brilliant as always. I was waiting for this like so many other people. I love your inclusion of River; thinking about her this way helps complete my personal understanding of the Moment.
I think yours is the first mention of the importance of the Marcus Aurelius qoute I've seen. Someone had a screencap up of Clara's writing on the board (to show her in the school) and it was focused on the words "no more" which of course resonated with the Warrior Doctor's ultimatum. But on my next viewings I concentrated to really hear the quote, and it gained so much more meaning.
And I'm so pleased you tied in to that wonderful Seven moment: I used it for inspiration for a ficlet: http://hawkmoth.livejournal.com/339944.html (which I titled "Unforeseeable Ways.")
Can't wait for more, and I know your meta for the Christmas Special is going to be heartwrenching.
