anyway so im rewriting the specials to get yaz in there right and you kinda need her out of the way for wild blue yonder so im keeping her in the tardis to do the manual part of the repairs i guess but just the idea of yaz being There but Just out of sight but very much like,,,,Present, as an agent in the story, while this interaction happens:

which is then Immediately followed by the tardis with her inside Disappearing, just lends a whole lot of fuckin,,,,,,,depth of flavour that you really dont even need to do anything for

#the hardest part of this is figuring out the donna&yaz dynamic for me #i cant write donna ive never written donna #i feel like donna would be sooort of approaching yaz like she approached martha back in s4 #but i dont think yaz would be as receptive to that as martha #bc yaz. is. in much the same state as the doctor is. in terms of trauma and running on fumes and lets just keep running and not talking #except that she /didnt/ just regenerate to become weirdly honest about her affections #she still loyal devoted 'shes fine shes fine' never told anyone running from home just said goodbye to one of her best friends #And also to maybe her first real romantic love who Died But Didnt #dealing with all of that as quietly as shes dealt with alll the rest of it up till now #thrown into this situation where she knows no one and the doctor knows everyone and everyone knows the doctor but she knows no one not even #this doctor #all that just to say. i dont think she'd be very friendly with donna #polite. mostly. probably. but also having lots of feelings #that are gonna be...........difficult..........i think for all three of them to deal with #bc donna doesnt know what shes dealing with in terms of doctor/yaz #maybe she assumes a friend. or else a rose or a martha situation. bUT. yaz is none of those #yaz isnt making hearteyes or Yearning In Secret at this point yaz is grieving and also i think trying to figure out her place #shes more of a river situation. not really. comparison doesnt entirely work. but like. river in the library. vaguely #more that than the secret crush thing that it was #and the doctor knows Exactly whats going on with yaz but yknow. Busy. and they havent really had a moment alone to talk abt it #if theyre gonna talk abt it #and donna is pushing the doctor in their familiar dynamic and yaz is just sort of...........squished between that #trying to stand her ground while not even really knowing where or what that ground even IS #anyway so. tldr. Complicated #complicated dyanmic and complicated to balance so i dont sacrifice any of the doctor&donna stuff #which might happen a little anywaybc i have a clear yaz bias but im trying to mitigate it as much as i can
