An Unlikely Friendship

by Ivealwayswantedtousethatspell

Clara finds herself stranded on Bowtie’s TARDIS – who’s in a sulk – all by herself and finds that she has to face herself – past, present and echoes – in order to fix the situation that she’s found herself in.

There’s a change in the relationship between Clara and the TARDIS by the beginning of The Day Of The Doctor, but we never really see it happen. So maybe this is what happened.

I was inspired by the quote ‘I am the one thing in life I can control’ from Wait For It (Hamilton) because when you can’t control anything else, you can still control yourself. Until you can’t.

Can stand alone.
