Hello my wonderful nonny!
It’s still sinking in and I am of two mindsets in regards to The Doctor remembering. I believe that he does remember everything they shared together; the moments, the love, the friendship, the adventures but I think it’s the actual person he is missing. Like when you tear someone out of a photography, you know they were there and what you did together but maybe the image of that person is gone.
But I also like to think that when Clara’s Tardis dematerialized around him and he was left in the desert and no longer in the diner and then faced with Clara’s image on his own Tardis he put two and two together and realizes that he was talking to Clara all along. So he leaves with her words as a gift, knowing that they really can’t travel together anymore and that maybe one day they will see each other again.
What I like to believe anyway 🙂
So long winded comment later, lol, fanart?? WOWOWOW. So many moments but I have no preference. I love really any of their moments when its about them like in Dark Water when she betrays him and he tells her why he still helps, or moments on MOTOE or even their last scene in the diner or ANYTHING. I am so not helpful, haha I know.
