reblogging because this is pure love
Apparently, to Even, talk to you later means six days later.
Sana is sitting at her desk, trying to make sense of some math exercises (who the fuck even invented limits, and who hurt them) without much success when she hears a text notification coming from her phone.
For a minute, she’s excited it’s going to be Yousef with another one of his stupid memes or ridiculously endearing, cheesy phrases (I would sell my kidney for you? Who even says that? Sana can still feel herself blush any time she thinks about it, but that’s only hers to know). But then she remembers, she probably won’t get another message from him again.
She shakes her head, now is not the time for self-pity.
When she checks her phone, she realizes it’s actually Even who texted her, and although she really would prefer it was someone else (a very specific someone else), she smiles at the name paired to the silly photo of Even she set up as his contact picture (it’s of him doing as many double chins as possible, and since it was taken from Sana’s point of view – that is to say, like two feet below Even’s head – it makes is head look like a pin, and it never fails to make Sana smile).
Even: What’s up?
Sana: I hate math
Even: who doesn’t…
She starts to type out a response, when she gets another text
Even: want to get away from it? Have some coffee?
Even: My treat :D

SKAM S04E04 Clip 4 - The Best Of Islam
NOORA: What is this again? We’re here for my sake? SANA: Yes, of course we’re here for your sake. NOORA: Just to look at muslim boys and stuff. SANA: Aren’t you tired of white boys now? I thought we had to get out, meet new types of people, see that there’s plenty of fish in the sea. You know what I mean? NOORA: But you said muslim boys just use Norwegian girls. SANA: It’s good that you’re converting to Islam, then. NOORA: Don’t turn around now, okay? But are those boys looking at us? SANA: How shouldl I see if they’re looking at us if I can’t turn around? NOORA: Oh my God, they’re coming over! SANA: Stay cool. NOORA: Stay cool? I’m really fuckign cool! Hi there! SANA: Hi! NOORA: Hi. BOY1: Can we sit here? SANA AND NOORA: Yes, of course. JONAS: It’s okay? Great! SANA: Sit down! NOORA: Hi! Yes, hi. ALI: Ali. NOORA: Noora. ALI: Nice to meet you. NOORA: Noora, it’s a pleasure. SANA: Sana, it’s a pleasure. ALI: Ali, it’s a pleasure. JONAS: Jonas. It was sana? SANA: Yes.

Tell me doesn't love her!!! I'll fight you!!!
i’m not crying i just have the way yousef looks at sana like she’s worth the entire world in my eyes
I don't know if Julie intended this, I would hate to even think about it... Personally I think the guys laughed because not everyone knows what happened between even and mikael... Let's just hope is like that...
skam and the depiction of Islam : homophobia in islam
there’s a huge problem. a huge one.
in season three, when isak attacked sana on her faith, she reacted aggressively and had every right to do so. I would have done the same thing. she tried to show him how void his argument was.
by pointing out that by the standards of science, being gay was wrong.
sure, it was just a rhetorical device to get him to shut up and she apologized later on.
still, that entire scene felt really, really wrong to me. it didn’t feel like sana, the sana I knew and love. because sana would never, ever, embrace prejudices and hatred of those in pain just to shut up an ignorant white boy.
like… that’s the thing. it didn’t feel like she was playing pretend. it genuinely sounded like she was defending something she believed to be partially and at some level, true. or defendable. something she was ACCUSTOMED to hear. something she was okay with saying out loud.
I fucking hated that, seeing it. it made me upset for weeks, as a gay muslim.
and now, this.
I understand mikael taking his distance. I understand the guys doing the same. honestly, thats realistic.
what I don’t understand is why Julie and her team thought it’d be wise to picture them LAUGHING about even and what happened, in their channel. it makes no sense. they’re sweet, kind boys. it makes literally no sense.
and it gets worse because she felt the need to single out yousef, to depict him as the one not to laugh at even’s pain. as the one who feels compassionate and human enough to show some decency.
yousef. the one that renounced islam.
now, thats demonizing the faith. thats demonizing the boys as muslims. thats making a clear link between Islam and the hatred and oppression of gay people. it’s subtle, sure. but it’s definitely there.
and I’m not okay with that. at all.
yes, a lot of muslims do believe being gay is haram. they won’t talk to me. they say I’m a tool of the western world, sick, wrong and going to jahannam. but guess what ? just like a lot of non muslims, christians or otherwise.
homophobia is not dictated by the qu'raan. the tale of Luz was interpreted as a cautionary tale about what shall befall those who practice it. INTERPRETED. it’s not what it says.
a lot of muslims are gay, bi, trans. we exist. we’re not haram. we’re not a paradox. we have lives in our communities.
and for julie to take it upon herself to depict islam as inherently homophobic like that…. she has no right to do that. it’s not her story, not her community, not something she has had to live with. she’s coming at them from a place of power and it’s very, very wrong.
Yays!!! Her feelings are not gone yet!! In fact, she is looking for a way around her religion!!! Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying that her religion is wrong, but she’s doing it and I don’t think that’s wrong either….
SKAM 4.05 Clip 1 - Done Nothing Wrong
So agreed with this
i'm bitter because noora always gets so much screentime but also because it makes NO sense this season and they didn't even try an explanation? like can we at least know why chris and sana aren't as close anymore? also, vilde and sana seemed closer than noora and sana in s2 and 3 but that doesn't fit julie shoving noora into every scene so we get caricature vilde instead
I know, I was actually really excited at the start of this season because it was a chance to explore the other side of the girl squad. Sana and Chris were the two who were originally friends and I’ve always been curious what their relationship would be like… but I can accept that Ina is busy. Maybe in-universe they weren’t as close after Chris got absorbed with Kasper but like you said, it would be nice to have given them a nod? Wouldn’t Chris at least still be texting her pictures of cats tagged “it u” or something? But actually the relationship in the girl squad I’ve always found the most interesting for Sana is Vilde:
They were introduced as the polar opposites of the girl squad and their conflict and its dramatic resolution was the basis of establishing that they’re all friends in the first place. Sana’s had a lot of big emotional moments with her (“I threw water in Ingrid’s face because she and her friends called you a slut for hooking up with William.” “Vilde isn’t a mean person. We’re her friends.” ‘What are you talking about? You’re our bus boss.” “She’s actually the first one I would take to war with me.”) So, even if they were in conflict, I think it would have been way more interesting to put more time into exploring Sana’s relationship with Vilde.
I would have loved this season be more about driving out the problems between them: their shared leadership (just last season they ran Kosegruppa together, this is a thing they do), Vilde’s prejudice getting pulled into the light and confronted, maybe Vilde saying something about how she doesn’t think Sana respects her (two of the nicest things she’d said about Vilde have been said to other people, how good would it be to parallel this in s4 with Sana answering her this time?). We could still get this but Vilde hasn’t really been the face of the conflict (we spend so much time on the Pepsi Max girls) and she’s already been presented as SO unpalatable and SO islamophobic this season. I would much rather first be exploring why Sana said this (and then seeing it break down):
Instead… we’ve had Sana and Noora against the world. It feels strange to ignore that Noora and Eva are best friends and just a little too convenient to me that Noora is number one in Sana’s books once we get to her season. That’s Skam’s biggest weakness, I think: shuffling around their characters from season to season based on what’s convenient and not keeping emotional continuity. Imho, I just think this is far too much time spent on her when she already had an entire season to herself and a significant focus during s1. Why can’t we be spending our remaining minutes on characters who’ll never get the spotlight (*coughs* also Even)? Who have a more organic relationship with the lead? Why instead do we have so much wasted energy on things that don’t even seem to go anywhere (Noora/Yousef, Vilde/Magnus, Noora and Sana talking to those random guys at the cafe)??
Am I the only one that's disappointed every time the clip is about the f***ing bus?! Where are my boys?! All of them?! Including Yousef?!
Ohhhh maaaaiii gaaaaaa!!! Is shit finally gonna come down?! Even will be at the party right?! I need shit to come down!!! Nå!!!
SKAM S04E05 Clip 4 - Humble
SANA: What are you doing? MOM: Have you seen my green veil? SANA: *Speaks Arabic* MOM: Yeah.. SANA: Yes! Why? MOM: Because I don’t know what you’re up to anymore. SANA: I’m not up to anything! MOM: You are out with all your friends and suddenly I see you outside with Yousef and then you don’t tell me anything. I’m worried, don’t you understand? SANA: You talk about my friends like they’re criminals or something. It’s not like all non-muslims lie, drink and have lots of sex! MOM: I know that, Sana. SANA: Yeah, then why can’t you trust that I have friends who are good people? MOM: I trust you, Sana, but I know lots of young people don’t follow the same rules as you. And you know that Norwegian society have lots of customs that don’t fit us. SANA: There are lots of things in Islam that doesn’t fit me either! Like its view of homosexuality or why does Islam say that muslim men can marry non-religious women, but muslim women can’t. Isn’t that a bit sexist? At least in the society we live in and when Islam says the Quran can adapt to every society you live in…? MOM: Where is this coming from? SANA: I’m just asking! Aren’t you allowed to ask? MOM: Yes, you’re allowed to ask. You’re allowed to ask. SANA: But what? You don’t have any answers? MOM: I’m just worried about you, Sana. I don’t want you to get hurt. SANA: I won’t get hurt! ELIAS: *Speaks in Arabic* SANA: *Answers in Arabic* ELIAS: I heard. What were you doing with Yousef the other day? SANA: With Yousef? ELIAS: Yeah, mom told me she saw you together. SANA: Oh, yeah. He just walked me home from Noora’s. ELIAS: You like him! SANA: Huh? No! ELIAS: Yousef is a nice guy. SANA: It’s just that he’s not a muslim. ELIAS: Yousef is the most muslim guy I know. He doesn’t drink, he’s always respectful to everyone. SANA: Yeah, but he doesn’t believe in Allah. ELIAS: Doesn’t believe in Allah.. Do you know how many people I know who say they believe in Allah? But they still drink, steal and vandalize. What’s more important? Saying you believe in Allah or live like you believe in Allah? The most important thing to me at least, is that my sister is doing well with a good guy and.. not only goes to the Mosque. SANA: I don’t think mom agrees. ELIAS: You know mom just wants what’s best for us. It’s just that she was born in a completely different country in a completely different time, so she doesn’t know what it’s like to be us. You have to stop having such a sad face. Because when you’re sad, I’m sad too. SANA: I’m not sad. ELIAS: That’s good. SANA: There’s a party at Løkka* tomorrow. If you want to come. ELIAS: With your friends? Those who were at the flat the other day? SANA: Mhm. ELIAS: Fun! Fun. Yeah, of course we’ll come. SANA: Bring Yousef! ELIAS: Yeah, I’ll do that
No mamen con este clip!!!! And they're leaving us a week without any news?! Noooo!!!
SKAM 4.05 Clip 5 - Imagine all the people living life in peace
Hope to see her smiling like this again soon!!! Miss you Sanasol!!!
Damn!! Sana!! I hope this doesn't end up hurting everyone XS
okay but why why why didn’t sana ask isak about what he meant the other day when he said those things about sara? the fact that she went into his facebook and looked for a conversation that was private after he’d mention that she was a good person for basically not going behind even’s back and revealing more than he wanted her…kinda worries me
Sad is the day that we don't get news from Sana u.u
appreciating Sana
the many faces of sana
Omg!!! Isak valtersen, the best friend!! I love him so much, he grew and learned and now is trying to make Sana understand... I love this show, I love the valuable lessons it has... I don't want it to end!!!

I love them, and the scene is just perfect!!
“A year? ” “A year.” “Can you believe in another two months we will be done with school?” “Don’t worry Sanasol, you aren’t getting rid of me that easy. We have to get through college together.” “I’m not worried, Isabelle”
