Ryasmin

Ryasmin is the het ship between Ryan Sinclair and Yasmin Khan from the Doctor Who fandom.

The Woman Who Fell to Earth
On a hillside in Sheffield, Ryan is learning to ride a bicycle with his grandmother, Grace and her husband, Graham O'Brien. However, due to his dyspraxia, he finds it incredibly difficult and ends up throwing his bike into the forest out of frustration. Graham and Grace remain encouraging and assure him they could try again another time. As the pair head for the train station, Ryan goes off to retrieve the bicycle. However, he is quickly thrown into a world beyond his imagination when he instead stumbles across glowing lines hanging in the air. Curiously, he touches one of them causing an alien pod to emerge. Seeking some assistance, he promptly calls the police.

PC Yasmin Khan, a probation police officer, arrives on a scene to settle a dispute between two bickering women. She then calls her superior, asking for more challenging opportunities and states she is capable of more than parking disputes. Coincidentally, her superior hands Ryan's case to Yaz and when she shows up, they soon realise that they know each other from Redland's Primary School. Under the assumption that Ryan's playing a prank, she insists that he can't leave the pod there. He tells her that he is unable to touch the object as it's freezing, ice cold. Yasmin, then, touches it and ends up burning her hand. Confused and wanting to seek answers, she continues to question Ryan.

Rosa
When the Doctor and the fam arrive in Montgomery, 1955, Ryan is slapped in the face by a racist after handing his wife the glove she had dropped. Yasmin instantly steps in and demands that he steps back, in which the racist asks her if Ryan was "her boy". When the pair have no choice but to sneak into the bathroom window of a motel, Yaz tells Ryan that the last time she snuck in via window was with Danny Biswas in year ten. Ryan tells her that Danny was punching well above his weight to which Yaz asks "Did you just accidentally pay me a compliment?" A beat holds between them before Ryan quickly brushes off the moment. A police officer soon arrives at their room looking for Yaz and Ryan. The duo manage to sneak back out the bathroom window and hide behind a bin where they began to share all the racial injustices they've experienced throughout their lives. The pair have another brief moment when Ryan asks if she was "born this positive", though, it is quickly interrupted by Graham O'Brien.

Arachnids in the U.K.
The Doctor finally manages to get her companions back home where Yaz and Ryan realise they have been living close to each other the entire time. Yaz invites them to tea at hers and Ryan happily accepts the invitation. Once there, Yaz's sister, Sonya, asks Ryan if her and Yaz are together. He tells her that they are mates and went to school with each other. Sonya proceeds to ask "just mates, then?" which Ryan answers "yeah" disappointedly. Yaz' mother, Najia, later asks the same question gleefully. In unison, the pair say "no" to which Najia responds with "oh", seemingly disappointed with the answer.
