So here we go, another trip into weird theory space.
Clara and Danny had an active relationship - including slipping off foran actionable and fireable offence some together time away from their students in “In the forest of the night” (seriously we object to “Kill the Moon” and ignore magic solar flare protective trees?).
so let’s take the obvious step of assuming it’s a sexual relationship. It certainly looked like it was gearing up to be a wedded relationship.
and now let’s looks forward in time to “Orson Pink” who by all appearances is a fixed point in time. Who looks just like Danny and has his toy soldier. So, it’s clear he’s meant to be a descendant of Danny, and the implication is also of Clara.
Add into this Clara’s series 8 personality of wilfully throwing herself into potentially self-destructive situations. She certsinly does not show the same level of caution she did in earlier stories (although she was always “ballsy”). Why the change? One could argue that the death of Danny made her lose any desire to live an ordinary life. And that’s a sign of a serious mental disorder.
what if I ask you, what if she not only lost Danny but upon discovering she was pregnant put the child up for adoption, ensuring that it was “baby Pink” and giving him the toy soldier. She’s a clever woman, with access to stuff like UNIT and a willing Time Lord who’s do anything to protect her and help her. And the Doctor’s habit of never looking back would mean he’d be unlikely to mention any babies if he knew about them. Mind you, second series Capaldi seemed a lot more “baby friendly” and inclined to defend them, almost as if something had triggered his maternal side, and dealing with a pregnant Clara and swaddling baby Pink would do that.
three times in that series did the Doctor react to, or be show to have special regard for, babies. Him being convinced to save the idiot Vikings because of a terrified baby, him wanting baby Riggs to accompany them until realising he’s be distracted by playing with the baby and Clara telling him his rampage of terror would end them moment he heard a baby cry.
TL;DR version: Clara had a baby, put him up for adoption and went a bit weird in the head.
