I was a bit wary of putting Clara in the fics because I'm pretty damn sure the finale's going to send that so far into AU territory that it won't be visible any longer. You're probably right—you all are. Oh well, who says AU's aren't good too! ;) (Admittedly a bit frustrating… And like you said, it gives the fic a very short-term existence. Ah well.)
I don't see the dynamic as being antagonistic. River knows how important the companions are to the Doctor, and I think Clara will be in awe of River and wonder why the Doctor never talked about her. *nods along*
I think once the finale airs and you see how River and Clara relate (literally and figuratively) to each other, then there'll be more Clara/River. Here's to hoping :D
