Wow, wow, wow...
That's a mad review if I've ever saw one. I hope it's not too different from what you had in mind . And it's quite impressive you interpret just the way I would the editing! The quality of my clips for TNoTD allowed me such zooming trick -vive France 4 HD!- it was irresistible not to. His face! For the 'here I go again', it was mainly Eleven reflecting on his loving River, altough he knows he always lose them... I wonder what you had in mind for that bit. The flashblacks in order is a trick I use ALL the time *hides face in shame*. The B&W/colour switch is mainly due to their out-of-order meeting... In that condition, flashbacks are vain. Bouncy Eleven was inevitable! About Clara being caught by the Doctor, it's not my favourite aspect of her arch -the Doctor spends his time saving his companions. Insisting on him saving her here is somewhat ludicrous, but hey, that was in the show. Technically speaking River and Clara both saved the Doctor in that episode, so, here, parallels everywhere between them two. Someone insisted somewhere -elisi, Moffat-rocks?- that the reason Clara says "I was born to save the Doctor" was that because in a ynamic opposite to River's sacrifice, she will be the cause of his regeneration and kill him. The meeting part was rather a recognition of the true nature of everybody - River is a ghost, Clara an echo, the Doctot... Spoilers, I guess. The hide shot! He steps back into the house, thus retreating in himself! I had little time for the companion's hug, so I chose the ones I find most significant -Donna hugged him without knowing what had happened on Midnight, Jack forgace him his plain abandonment, the Ponds were his family. Too bad I had no time for others -with my music cutting. I'm so relieved it pleased you so! Your prompt was amazing! *squishes you*

*grins widely* It was the first time ever I went so in depth for a vid comment, but I really, really wanted to fill my eyes and mind with every last bit of it! It was so, so delightful. Not so different from what I had in mind, just enough as in you made it entirely yours, but the spirit of the finale and all the River and all the Clara and all the bliss I'd been foreseeing went way beyond my expectations :D Just perfect.
Well, guess we just saw the very same things in the song lyrics! :D Very glad I apparently got what you wanted to convey quite well, though :D
France 4 HD saves the day :D
I didn't think of precise things for every last line, for "here I go again" it would probably have been River indeed, or else the falling into his own timestream already because of "the walls of my mind"… :)
Good point about the Doctor catching Clara. Ah well, they went with the whole Impossible Girl + Eternal Saviour thing, never mind that he saved her often too. Goes with the whole Super!Clara business that annoyed us a bit ;P But it allowed for broken!Clara to stumble towards him, so I can forgive that…
Ohhhh. I definitely remember elisi insisting on the born of save him vs. born to kill him opposition, but I don't think I've read the theory that they'll go full reverse and Clara will save, then kill, so it mustn't be her. It's a fascinating idea! Reminds me of Wilf for the last regeneration ♥
The choice of companion hugs was perfect ♥
*squishes endlessly*
