I had a bizarre Doctor Who dream last night. Here goes:
The Twelfth Doctor, Clara, Amy, and River were exploring what seemed like a giant play-place full of twisty tubes and weird, spooky subdued fluorescent lighting. The TARDIS was nowhere to be seen, so they might have been looking for her. Suddenly, Clara started glitching and split into all the different versions of herself and wildly flickered in and out of reality while saying 'I don't know where I am!' over and over again. Amy began disappearing and reappearing all over the place, and then Twelve suddenly degenerated into Eleven again. He and River started running around trying to find Clara and Amy, but when they came to a twisty tube slide River volunteered to go first even though the Doctor tried to stop her. Then River was a different version of herself from another point in her timeline, and Clara and Amy disappeared for good. Eleven held River's hand to try to stop her from disappearing too, but she did anyway and the Doctor was completely alone. It was so heartbreaking to watch him switch between Eleven and Twelve while desperately searching for his best friends and wife and yelling, "CLARA!! ! Come along, Pond, PLEASE! River, stay with me! Stay with me!"
I've been having searching dreams like that over and over again for the past month or so. I think that Eleven represents my childish, Aspergian traits while Twelve represents my maturer side. Clara could be my practical, everywoman side that is also torn between going somewhere new and staying at home, and Amy could be my adventurous side. I'm not sure about River...maybe she's my search for a life-long companion? What do you guys think?
