Oooh. As just about always happens with your DW meta, this has gone straight into my memories because you always catch so much more than I do in the episodes - see Missy mirroring Clara and how that puts Missy into a different place in the narrative that she wasn't expecting. It's an ever-evolving thing, and I am very fortunate that I have someone who shares my brain to talk to & throw thoughts back and forth. And then, at some point, magic happens and the whole thing unlocks. :)
I loved the CS Lewis quotes as well - incredibly interesting and deeply appropriate. Are they all from Mere Christianity? The long one about forgiveness certainly is. Am not 100% sure about the others, but I've linked to the sources, so that should tell you? On the whole, 'Mere Christianity' is one of my go-to books. If you want more about love specifically, I'd recommend 'The Four Loves' which is utterly wonderful. <3
