Hej there. :) I was wondering.. was there in the past seasons any indication that Ismail and Ava knew each other and were apparently even kind of friends in elementary school?
I think this gives the bullying story line a whole new twist and goes even more in the toxic friendship direction because it seems that Ismail became a very different person when he befriended Constantin and that now with Sascha he seems to be more of the person he was when they all were friends. We got to see glimpses of that already when he met with Fatou and I really like the way Druck shows us that human beings are very complex and not always black and white. I just hope that they won’t brush the bullying storyline aside and give us a proper resolution. Especially for Ava. She deserves the world!
PS: when Ismail said „since you are all in a relationship“ did he mean Sascha, too? It kinda sounded like that.
Hi anon 👋🏻
I think before this season we only knew that Ava and instas shared classes but i’m not sure if it ever was specified for how long they’ve gone to the same school or how close they used to be before Constantin stepped into the picture 🧐
Druck (and skamverse in general) has been good at showing people with flaws and complexies and different backstories and backgrounds etc etc which is probably the main reason it's drawn so many people in. There's just that other side where they sometimes overcomplicate things for drama™ and try to add too many things to something where the message could've gotten thru better if they just trusted the characters/plot to deliver by keeping it more simple.
I don’t think they’ll brush the bullying aside but i’m not really trusting them to resolve it in a way that makes sense and satisfies everyone but we’ll see. I think this season so far has been on the shallow side but we’re only 1.5 episodes in. I do hope that there will be clips soon, like v soon, that will make us connect to the characters more.
About that quote, wasn't it more like "since everyone is in a relationship"? 🤔 But either way i still think it was kinda a general statement and not necessarily directed at Sascha.
Anyways i'm watching this season unfolding from a bit more distance than before i guess so i'm just rolling with the punches and seeing how it goes hah
