Title: Tracking Ashildr
Prompt: #490, remainder | #316, beginning
Fandom: Doctor Who
Pairing: Ashildr | Me/Clara
Rating: General Audiences
Word count: 200
Once the Doctor had a room in his TARDIS devoted to tracking Ashildr through time and space. He tried to hide the room from Clara. Clara was clever enough to find the room anyway. The Doctor later claimed the room was surveillance. Clara didn't believe the claim.
Inside the room were various things from Ashildr's exploits. Books she was mentioned in. Artifacts she had stolen. Wanted posters she was on. And then, some time after 1800, Ashildr seemed to disappear, much to Clara's dismay.
The thing Clara cherished the most were pages ripped from Ashildr's diaries. Ashildr ripped the pages out, hoping to forget her past for good, but the Doctor managed to save them. In those ripped pages, Ashildr wrote about meeting Clara in her Viking village. Clara was always attracted to Ashildr, but she never knew Ashildr felt the same way.
The diary pages broke Clara's heart. Clara had no way of knowing she'd ever find Ashildr again or if she was was still alive.
Clara left the room exactly the way she found it, not so the Doctor wouldn't notice it, but because she wanted the room to be a shrine for Ashildr if Ashildr was dead.
