Chapter 2 is up from my new @skambigbang 2023 fic! This one is a love letter to all us fans of the show. You’ll see what I mean, I hope you like it! Thanks @mazarin01 for all the inspiration! Here’s a small snippet from this weeks chapter:
These thoughts of Even, of a life they never lived, haunting his days. Those moments when Isak still feels bathed in Even’s warmth even now, months later like the light of a star that’s already died, the brilliance of it is still somehow more real than anything else in his life. He feels like he’s losing touch with reality, this reality, this world without Even, where everything is somehow disjointed and off-kilter. Wrong in some deep fundamental way, a quantum fuck-up so to speak. Not yellow curtains. No. Maybe this is the one fucking world where him and Even don’t end up together and he just happens to be living it.
So instead, he finds himself yearning for this other world, some parallel universe where things are as they should be, right in every way. A world that feels more real each time he finds himself falling into it. Certainty like lead sits heavy in his gut. Things are not supposed to be like this. Things should have been different.
Next up is a Noorhelm fic written in a Poetry AU with the story "And what is that if not poetic" by Sammi aka @sammi-phoenix with art by Pauline aka @whippedkoalas!
Sammi: What inspired this story?
I like to consider myself a poet so the idea of combining that with noorhelm, my favourite skam couple to date (keep in mind I've only seen the OG), was a pretty easy decision.
Pauline: What inspires you about this story?
What I like the most about this story is that it talks about poetry. Poetry is a fascinating art. Two people bonding through poetry is the recipe for a great love story!

Next up "Interns" by @hedwigstalons with art by northpole21! Our boys dressed up and ready to work! Yes please!
HedwigsTalons: What inspired this story?
I wanted to explore the support Even and Isak give each other, and how they know themselves and their strengths better when they work together. The internship gave me the chance to see how they give each other confidence without the primary focus being on their romantic relationship. Plus Isak is TIRED and I can relate.
Northpole21: What inspires you about this story?
Two helpless young people meet in the same company, who both have other dreams but are forced to stay here for a while. I really enjoy their conversations. Their encounters are like the sun streaming in each other's lives.(Even here is really soft and considerate). And about our perfect writer, her description always makes my thoughts running wild :-)
The one thing I’m mad about is the fact that they picked another white girl for the main when they could have picked a black girl or something? They had a beautiful black girl that they pushed between Zoe and Senne and then threw her away...why couldn’t she be the main? I would loved to see another POC main character if we aren’t having a yasmina or moyo season this time
