Absolutely not.

[She's reluctant to admit it, to say that she doesn't know what she's doing. But it feels like that's her path on these missions more often than not. Not knowing what to do or where to fit with everyone else that seems so much more better suited to find the orb than she does.]

But I have to try something. Even if it doesn't lead anywhere. I can't keep struggling to find my place here and doing all the wrong things to try and be more useful.

[Clara realizes then that despite their closeness, she's been keeping things from him. Her head lifts so she can meet his eyes.]

Because I've been having issues with that for months now. Ever since I came back. I've put so much into learning magic, into picking up knives and guns, into having people teach me how to use them. I'm not a fighter like most people here are. Have no special powers. I don't have a screwdriver or regeneration cycles. I don't even have a special set of skills like nursing or a scientist. I'm just Clara. And that's always been enough, until now that it isn't.

[So she has to at least try to find Ford. Explore and attempt to be clever. It's all she has going for her, she figures.]
