The Original Character Interview Meme

Snagged from my flist. Interview with Alex, just turned 21, at more or less the current point in Dating. (Some of the answers would change depending on when he was in this story/his life, so this is a very specific snapshot. Mind you, he wasn't impressed with the questions, so if you want to ask him anything, go ahead!)

Because she's delightful

(Spoilers up to - and including - Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS.)

I don't ship them, even though Whouffle is the most adorable shipping name ever (I just never ship the Doctor with Companions) - they just have the most wonderful dynamic, which this vid showcases beautifully. And Clara is this tiny adorable little thing with a spine of steel.

Which reminds me. Someone (*looks at vidders on flist meaningfully*) needs to make a Clara vid to 'Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up)'. Because it is the perfect song for her & her journey:

I must become a lion hearted girl

Ready for a fight
Before I make the final sacrifice

This is a gift, it comes with a price
Who is the lamb and who is the knife?
Midas is king and he holds me so tight
And turns me to gold in the sunlight

Raise it up, raise it up
Raise it up, raise it up

And in the spring I shed my skin
And it blows away with the changing wind
The waters turn from blue to red

As towards the sky I offer it

Oh and green_maia suggested Scarborough Fair/Canticle for Doctor/River...

Tell her to find me an acre of land
Parsley sage rosemary and thyme
Between the salt water and the sea strands
Then she’ll be a true love of mine

Meta: The Name of the Doctor (it's not a ghost story, it's a love story)

First of all, you should all go read this:

Because I won't be talking much about Clara, and that review does a beautiful job of explaining a lot of the ways I see her.
