#basically same line i just hear them differently in french idk why#i also catch a lot more plot in french somehow?#not big plot but the little things like 'im gonna go here do this and youre gonna go there do that'#in english they slide right off me in french i suddenly hear them its really weird#anyway thinking abt yasmin 'postponing the breakdown' khan#it's different than what 13 is doing i think#maybe once back home it'll turn into smth similar as 13 is doing idk#but here it's different it's pragmatic#oh right thats what i used to think about back with flux right? the respnsibility#i think yaz feels a lot of responsibility which is sligthly different from the doctor's Duty#all the things yaz does are Slightly Different to what the doctor's doing bc yaz is a person still#she has a family and a history and you feel that when she makes her choices#when she consciously prioritises the doctor you feel that#when the doctor betrays their values it's just themself#when they prioritise one person over the universe it's just themself to be accountable to#the fact that it's 'over the universe' at all is part of the issue#anyway#like i mean. Duty is like a platonic ideal. but it's impersonal. yazs sense of responsibility. to the doctor. to her family.#is very personal and tangible#it's not DutyTM as in 'i need to do this bc i told myself so and otherwise i wont deserve my name'#it's just. she cares#and i think all of the things they have the same but different are abt that difference#about what 13 says on the beach. in a way#wough thasmin#i need to write them#need to come up with some nice plot for them#like 6 months post potd happy ever after au. 6 months-1 year smth like that
