Pocahontas refusing to confide in Nakoma.

Pocahontas (1995)

rambling lil' meta under the cut

i've been thinking a lot about pocahontas's relationship with nakoma and what kind of friends they really are in the context of the film. when we meet them both, pocahontas is elevated and nakoma is in a boat far below her, shouting up to reach her. i think nakoma is always reaching for pocahontas and pocahontas will only reach back sometimes. it's a pretty unbalanced friendship, when you look at it, and i wonder why nakoma remains the main point of contact in the community for pocahontas besides her father. perhaps it's because they're similar ages. maybe they're childhood friends who just got so used to each other that the one may take the other for granted.

pocahontas never confides in nakoma, and you gotta wonder why. even their first interaction has pocahontas demurring when she answers that she was up on the cliff thinking. thinking about what? She doesn't say, but she doesn't refute nakoma's assumptions.

and nakoma...what does she get out of this friendship? maybe she's just used to trailing after pocahontas this way, maybe she just doesn't have another friend, or she thinks pocahontas needs her.

nakoma is sort of a foil for thomas, who trails after john smith like a starry-eyed fanboy with an intense para-social relationship perspective. nakoma also is the active participant in the friendship, not pocahontas. nakoma fills in the gaps of their relationship with assumptions and guesswork, because pocahontas is so reticent, so hesitant to share of herself that nakoma Has to. and when pocahontas's seclusion goes too far, when she fails to confide in nakoma some of the most essential elements of what she intends, nakoma has to fill in the gaps again. and when she does it's Not Good, and her solution is to send their strongest warrior (a man with affection for pocahontas, who might keep her secrets if she needs him to) to try and save her friend. and then it all blows up in their faces and a man lies dead in the water for it.

every relationship in the movie is so tragic like brO—

#pocahontas's whole deal here fascinates me #pocahontas (1995)#disney pocahontas #disney nakoma #pocahontas #nakoma #disney's pocahontas #pocahontasedit #pocahontasgif #disneyedit #disneygif #fyeahpocahontas #disneyfeverdaily #pocahontas meta #queso*edit #queso*gif #help i'm hyperanalyzing disney's pocahontas again #for real tho pocahontas's avoidance tactics are on another level #she's at a point where she can just disappear for a day and a half and everyone will just be like ''she does that''#i have a headcanon that pocahontas and nakoma were also each others' first se/xual experiences as they were growing up #and that nakoma caught feelings and pocahontas didn't #and it was messy and terrible but they stuck around each other anyway #and somehow made it back to friendship #but obviously there's SOMETHING that makes pocahontas feel like she can't truly confide in anyone #except MAYBE grandmother willow #she Thought she could confide in her father and ask his advice but we know how that conversation went #pocahontas is such a profoundly lonely person in a lot of ways #(and so is john smith)

Nancy: Where's Charlotte?

Honeymaren: *remembers that Charlotte got her head stuck in a tuba after Nancy told her to not touch it, and that she's supposed to cover for Nakoma and Namaari as they work together to get Charlotte's head out of the tuba while Audrey comes back with the tools to help*

Honeymaren: Who's Charlotte?

I need future Disney female protagonists to have personalities like these girls

Note: not saying I want them to be sexualized like some of the women on this list, nor am I saying I want them to be involved in dubious situations (Meg's relationship with Hercules will always be scarring to me because of that).
