Heartbreak & Heroines
Kynn created a RPG called Heartbreak & Heroines, and used Kickstarter to get $3000 in funding in 48 hours. Over on LJ, Jack posted his response to his ex's success, in two minds because he's glad someone he knows did something cool, Kynn raped him. A couple days later, alexandraerin posts as well, expressing dismay at Kynn's behavior.

Jack posts Tweets from Kynn and later, emails,. At some point, the Kickstart for the RPG is canceled.

Some responses are laudable. Others, not so much.

ETA: Kynn tried to get a new name on RPG post-ban.

ETA2: Elf has a post about it.

ETA3: Kynn denies the rape happened.

But all she said was that she was so devastated by the idea that she had hurt Jack that she decided to commit suicide! And that's why now it's so important for her to share with everyone that he's just lying about being raped because he's spiteful and jealous. Because his feelings are so important to her the idea of hurting him makes her want to take her own life.

It must make sense in some language...
