Okay so #1: Super moving. I just LOVED the idea of Eleven waiting, and Clara making him wait. The things she wouldn't do Tuesday evening-oh yes, this one wasn't forever just waiting for him to come take her away, she made him come at her own time and took things at her own rhythm (uncanny River parallel just came to mind…). Loving the parallels of Clara with the big friendly button, and the way he wouldn't name Amy, Rory, and River-the "greatest story never told". My heart! (I SWEAR I WAS LITERALLY LISTENING TO THIS VERY SONG AT THIS VERY SECOND HOW.) I just loved the way you mixed showing the misery and burden of before with the silly glee he felt returning, so Eleven-Snowmen's Eleven and our silly merry fool, mixed and combined and coexisting because Clara brought the joy back to the surface, and because of her it would win over in the end. Also loved the detail of his letting him see just what she did for him, that gratitude was very sweet. And the last line was such a lovely Clara portrayal, I could picture her really vividly =)
#2: Clara seeing him as a man-other River parallel! XD stop making me think he's got another meant-to-be. (Kidding, you can keep doing it, that's what reading other ships is for :D) I loved the way you showed Eleven seeing Clara and Clara seeing Eleven, and the idea that he would want to leave her, but couldn't bring himself to in the end, because he couldn't leave her with all the scars she'd kept of her saving him. The way you depicted that trauma was really moving, of course she was brave and pretended to be all right, but in the end it showed… ♥
#3: I like the idea of his searching of her echoes-and of course neither her, nor the TARDIS would like that much =P
#4: loving your portrayal of all the Claras, it was ringing with such emotion, quite deliciously dark and bittersweet… I loved the idea of her never growing old, oh that hurt, and his telling himself that the real Clara had that chance and at least he'd saved her that one time. That line too: She’s not a ghost, but the lights flicker all the same. ♥
#5: ugh that was just beautiful okay
#6: I loved the idea of Clara being with him, and how it felt almost like being with kin because she'd seen all of him, she'd seen Gallifrey and she knew-and I fell over laughing at her telling him he wasn't regenerating right, then whipping him with her hair :D I loved the way you showed how very easy it was for the two of them as well, that was quite delightful-and the way they just went on on their stride, their adventures, their discovering. I loved their meeting the Daleks, how they still didn't know the Doctor, and the latter's triumphant laugh-that was a pretty powerful moment. His worrying for Clara was so intense, too. And your portrayal of her was just MAD-the level of epicness I can't even, and the brill Clara voice, and being so brave and yet the shaky knees. I love it.
Neat choice of the finish quote :D

Hello! :D And never hurry...

There are so many uncanny River and Clara parallels when you think about it... O_o And how much do I love the name of that song? It's so perfect. (That is also uncanny. IT'S BECAUSE RIVER/DOCTOR IS SO FANTASTIC. SOMEHOW.)

Okay, then I will keep doing that! ;) (No, but srsly, River/Doctor OTP, I just... Eleven/Clara is so adorable and comes with a lot of baggage as well... I don't know why I ship those ships. XD)
And my favourite part of the very end of NotD is when Clara is all "I can see you" and is so happy to see One. Like... she doesn't care what he looks like, she just cares that it's him and it's so beautiful.

Yeah, I figure it's either that, because they're both used to change, or it's some sort of disaster, lol.

I love Clara being brave/scared and want her to have all the epic moments, yes. :D

I might love that one. :)

Yessss, there are. All the loveliness. That song is beyond gorgeous, name and all ♥

Since when do we need reasons for shipping? :D It's a thing of the heart!
