I don't ship the pairing. I didn't like Clara. But by no means is Capaldi unattractive. He oozes sexy menace.

For your sake, OP, I hope you can find a kindred soul who does write good fic. I feel that disappointment.




(But I still don't like Clara.)

Mmmmm, sexy menace, yessss.

I liked Clara well enough initially (even if I didn't agree with her lying to Danny), but I was very... well, turned off is an exaggeration, but I wasn't thrilled with her ending/exit.

Then again, I've not been fond with a lot of companion exits.

IA with this, except on the disliking Clara. I didn't love her, and I didn't stick around for her leave, but I thought she was a decent companion at times. Not someone I was ever incredibly attached to, but I don't blame the actress and I think she did work with Capaldi well.

Never shipped them, and I did like her with Danny, but if I were ever going to care about shipping her with someone else, it would probably be a lady. (Didn't she make a comment during one episode that suggested she might be bi?)

Yeah, she had basically a throwaway line about Jane Austen being a phenomenal kisser.

Ooo, now I remember! That was a fun line. (And I would be up for that fanfic.)

Thank you kindly! I know I'm not owed good fic, and I think Twelve would be a tough character to write convincingly, but a few more fics that catch the spirit of series 9 would help slake my craving.

And … hmm, I'm not sure I agree about the sexy menace in this case. As Malcolm Tucker and Richelieu, oh yeah, Capaldi's all about the predatory, cold-blooded magnetism. But his Doctor has a different quality altogether. I partly love it because their relationship is obsessive and co-dependent, and the recklessness is tinged with desperation. But also with streaks of heartbreaking sweetness, which is rare in Capaldi's previous roles.

I started out a Clara doubter, but I fell in love. Coleman and Capaldi have amazing chemistry, and I'm going to miss their consuming focus on each other.
