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.

Caps lock away. "I'll kill myself and it'll be your fault" - either outright stated, or implied like this - was what I grew up with. I'm wondering how the fuck Kynn deluded herself that those convos make her look good.

Before, I believed Jack because I had no reason to disbelieve him, and the behaviour didn't surprise me from Kynn - with her history of boundary pushing.

After? I absolutely believe that she did it, and I'm somewhat skeptical that it was just the stuff that was explicitly posted about, because relationships don't generally get that fucked up that quick. Because that right there is an abuser, and they don't usually go for one-off showings.
