Evak

Evak is the slash ship between Even Bech Næsheim and Isak Valtersen from the Skam fandom.

Canon
Even transfers into Hartvig in his final year. Isak first spots him in the school cafeteria. Isak's friends discuss hooking up with girls, but Isak is uninterested and instead gazes at Even from across the room. They both later attend the Kosegruppa meeting. Isak makes a swift attempt and plays on his phone in the bathroom. He exits the stalls and meets Even for the first time. Even washes his hands and takes all of the paper towels, to Isak's disbelief. Even notices and retrieves a paper towel from the bin, hands it to Isak, and asks to meet him outside. Isak and Even perch on the park bench and share a smoke. They talk about their mutual dislike of the Kosegruppa. Emma interrupts them and asks Isak if they can pair together. Even tries to save Isak by saying they are already in a pair, but Emma objects and asks to join their group. The three of them sit awkwardly on the bench.

Afterwards, Isak takes an immediate interest in Even. Isak finds the signup sheet for Kosegruppa and takes a mental note of Even's full name: Even Bech Næsheim. Then, he searches for him on Facebook but finds nothing. But he does find his website on Google with a vlog of Even talking about his movie idea about Captain America and Vladimir Putin falling in love. Later on in the courtyard, Isak stares at Even as he walks across the yard, clearly attracted to him. On Friday, Isak rewatches the video of Even and searches up his favorite director: Baz Luhrmann. He chooses to watch Romeo & Juliet (1996) and cries at the death scene.

On Friday, Isak gets on a tram to buy a pack of beer for Jonas, though without realizing stands right next to Even. Even greets him and Isak looks up from his phone. They have a short but rather awkward chat about going home. Isak asks Even if he could buy him some beer. He agrees and they enter the shop, however, Even has forgotten his ID and invites Isak to his house to collect it, though he doesn't wait for a reply. They enter Even's apartment and into his room. Isak looks around and notices the guitars and drawings. He compliments Even's drawings and said they were funny. Though not the ID, Even holds up a joint and both of them decide to sit on the windowsill and smoke. They talk about skipping classes and music. Isak says he is an NWA fan and Even asks if he knows Nas. Isak doesn't and Even is surprised and said they'll listen to him later.
