If you shipped Whouffle did you go on to ship Whouffaldi or did your ship die with 11â˛s regeneration?
Thank you so much for answering this. Was interesting to read your thoughts and thought you might wanna read your fellow fans replies also.Â
(If not let me know and Iâll remove it.)

tbh my ship startet with 11âs regeneration⌠Donât get me wrong, I loved Clara with 11, but it was so easy and they talked a lot. What really got me was Claraâs struggle to accept the Doctorâs new face, how she was finally able to *see* him and all the unspoken love. Two different relationships im my opinion, I prefered the latter:)
chrysthebadwolf:
Whouffle was a very cute relationship. Clara came to Eleven the moment he needed her the most and gave him new energy and will for adventure. That said. It does not compare to Whouffaldi. The moment Twelve said ''please, just see me'' i was destroyed for life, haven't been the same since.
dreameater1988:
I lowkey shipped Whouffle. But it was more like a âaww, theyâre cute togetherâ or âthat is so not a platonic relationshipâ. When I saw the first filming pictures from Depp Breath, however, I went full Titanic and knew Iâd sell my soul to see a kiss happen.
infiniteregress17:
It didnât even occur to me to ship Clara & 11, for some reason.But at Christmas 2015 Whouffaldi stole my heart, and Iâve never been the same since.Â
randomthunk :
I went from lowkey to overdrive shipping, but Iâm curious about other people too.

Iâm with @randomthunk

I shipped Whouffle but I donât recall that I did so intensely; in fact I thought the better match was Eleven and Clara OSWIN Oswald from The Snowmen. However I was fully invested in it, especially from The Crimson Horror (âboop!â) onwards.
When Deep Breath came along I was worried theyâd scale it back because of ageism attitudes that were being expressed in fandom and in the media after Capaldi was cast. And then there was PCapâs own alleged âthereâll be no romanceâ comment (I say âallegedâ because Iâve heard tell that was overplayed and I only recently discovered that he was calling Twelve-Clara a romance in interviews as early as the 2014 World Tour). So I had somewhat saddened ⌠until I realized that Doctor Rule No. 1 was in full effect in the final scene with the âIâm not your boyfriendâ bit - which at the same time, though, confirmed in canon that Eleven did have those feelings for Clara.
Needless to say, I did NOT like the introduction of Danny Pink and if it wasnât for the fact I thought Into the Dalek was a cool concept and Listen became, for a time, the best Doctor Who episode of all time in my estimation, I might have turned a bit against S9. But then came Mummy on the Orient Express and the penny dropped and I was away at the races again. But I didnât become truly intensely Whouffaldi until I got hit with a one-two-three punch at the end of 2014-early 2015: Jenna confirming that Claraâs âI love youâ in Mummy was meant for the Doctor; her Doctor Who Magazine cover story (âClaraâs heart belongs to the Doctorâ) and Last Christmas. After that, it was full speed ahead. And it reached its zenith with the Raven Trilogy.

I liked Whouffle, but i will die for Whouffaldi!
twelviesfluffyhair:
I thought Eleven and Clara made a cute couple but Matt just didnât interest me. Twelve did. It took a while to realize that Whouffaldi was a legitimate concept; I think it was Dark Water that finally sold me.
annapropaganda:
I ship both of them so hard, man. It breaks my soul.
aeolianminor7th:
I second what @randomthunk said. I never really full on shipped 11 and Clara, just kinda sorta? then regeneration and a few episodes in and whoops!!
kendrixtermina:
Different Case, same Software - like, to begin with my view is that the Doctorâs basically essentially the same person throughout his many forms. Also, consistency - I mean when a new Companion is first introduced I donât particularly care whether or not theyâll get love interestey I just want a good story, but it would just have been inconsistent if 10 & Rose continued right where they left off but the rules were somehow different now, especially with the whole situation in âDeep Breathâ.
from-mars-to-venus:
didn't start shipping it until series nine and HOOO BOY
tounknowndestinations:
I shipped 11 and Clara really hard. I thought itâd end with his regeneration and then the restaurant scene in Deep Breath made me realise that he was the same man and that only their relationship has slightly changed, being a little bit bumpier for now on⌠i see this scene like the end of their honeymoon, if i can say it like that! I now ship 12 and Clara even harder.If it helps⌠Even today my bunch of tags intitled OTP still is: #souffez (i think we are only a few now to use this one) #time...
christyvourcos:
I shipped Whouffle and shipped it even more with Whouffaldi.
leondrmccoys:
I always shipped Whouffle and Whouffaldi, but Whouffle is my ultimate otp (even that whouffaldi is one of my otp's too), I always loved eleven and clara together and I miss them so much.
