About the drama recently, as a person who has had similar allegations. (TW MENTIONS OF SA AND SELF HARM)
This whole situation has given me a bad feeling in my stomach. For context, I was accused of >!SA!< by a girlfriend of mine in the past. She lead me on, and I told her I was tired of the teasing and that if she's not gonna do anything she can "fuck off". (>!Teasing as in "do me until I can't see"!<) Thus, she got mad and >!accused me of rape. TWICE!<. Both in the span of a year. Then, she got with my best friend not even a week later. Of course, I spiraled into depression (which I'm still not fully recovered from mind you), involving >!self harm, self hate, multiple attempts!<, and an overall worsening of my mental state. My condition, DPDR, did nothing but make this worse, with me feeling like a zombie everywhere I went because of it. Like nothing was real.
Because of what happened to me in the past, I never believed Ren. I don't mean I gave Zeal leniency or the benefit of the doubt, I sided with him entirely. Because I knew that a LARGE amount of SA accusations are false (e.g Kwite, myself, etc) so of course I didn't trust her.
That's not to say I didn't have my doubts. I had just gotten into the game a few days prior, and I barely knew who Zeal is. But the way people reacted also fueled my belief in Zeal's innocence, with people making fun of his >!attempt!<, spreading false information about said >!attempt and his hospitalization!<, people saying things like "he'll see he's not a fucking god", etc. I was disgusted, and I almost related to Zeal just because of what people said, without ever meeting him. People can be so disgusting to each other, and it hurts my soul.
The weight of accusations like this is life-crushing. Some people (emphasis on SOME) still think I'm a >!rapist!<, and every day I still see people saying Zeal is a pos, that he's a >!rapist!<, a disgrace.
Reading the messages between Ren and Zeal (from Zeal's docs) made me almost sob. The way he asked MULTIPLE times if it was okay for him to do what she wanted him to, you can tell he still wasn't comfortable even with her confirmation. Ren truly is the worst type of human being out there. Manipulative and demonic.
I really don't care if this is just "glazing Zeal". I relate heavily with the situation and I hate to see it happen to someone else. Of course I'm going to glaze him. Of course I hate Ren. I think everyone should to some extent.
God loves you all.
