My Thoughts on Thomas' response as I fully read it (thread)
NEVER claimed this. I said some of Thomas' actions and wording of things after his WF video treaded into that territory and it caused him to say some hurtful things. Never framed him as a white savior dictator.
Also on "the relationship stuff should've been private", the only thing I wasn't vague or general on was the IRL meetup and while I could've kept that out, I wanted to use it as an example of me realizing things wouldn't work
Reasons needed to be given for the breakups so I could talk about how you tried blackmailing me back into a relationship with full context.
And if you think I should have kept silent about that manipulative tactic, that's SO fucked up
And if you think I should have kept silent about that manipulative tactic, that's SO fucked up
This is such a spin because no, I did NOT over-rely on him or use him as my support network. I actually opened up to my best friend IRL a lot before even talking to Thomas and while dating Thomas, I joined theatre and opened up to so many friends there about things.
Hell most of the times I talked about stuff with my friend, I also told Thomas. Because as my partner, I naturally assumed I could tell him about these things.
This is a half-truth. I actually started bonding with Thomas by giving critiques of his early RWBY rewrite scripts. Things got deeper when I asked him for advice but that's not all we bonded about. In fact, besides 2 or 3 instances, our convos before getting in a relationship-
- filled with gushing about our favorite shows, talking about how our day was going, etc.
Really? Because I suggested so many times that he worry less about YouTube and more on the story he wanted to create. He told me it's cause he needed it for support and money. I suggested getting a job seperate from YouTube monetization to help things along. And he knows this.
Ok there's a LOT to unpack in here alone. First off, I was actually quite supportive of Thomas and his book. I even told several friends about it and they said they'd be excited to read it when it came out. And yes, I told him that.
Secondly, yes, I initially declined to see the manuscript. We were still early into the relationship and I didn't want to be the special person trusted with something so valuable.
Thirdly, if you felt that way about your characters, you should've told me. But you didn't. And after awhile into the relationship, I offered to see the manuscript.
This is full of half-truths and false framing. I actually read 4 chapters of TWO drafts. An earlier one and then a revisioned one after we got back together. And he frames it as I never went further cause I was... disinterested?
Here's the thing. I was VERY busy while dating Thomas. I had recently started college where I had classes 4 days of the week along with homework, was heavily engaged in the theater department there, and had a part-time job on the weekends with minimum wage and a shit boss
And I told him all this. I took what time I could to relax, have fun with friends, and have mental health relaxation. And analyzed his chapters when I had time & energy.
It took me almost 2 months to fully read and analyze 4 chapters of the earlier draft because I was just that busy. But I tried. For a story I was not yet engaged in cause I hadn't got into the meat yet. Because I DID care.
So you're comparing a book with multiple chapters plannedfor awhile to a small 8-page short story that I made for a class project and spit-balled fun ideas of in case we wanted to make something more? Thatdoesn't add up. Especially since you were never up-front about this.
Also no idea if I'm forgetting something but this supposed incidence of me not being interested in his idea never happened. I DO remember him mentioning a new villain he wanted to make similar to Roman Torchwick & my immediate response was "Ooooo that sounds cool" 
NEVER said this. I said to him that it seemed he was putting too much focus on his channel and not enough on his book. For context, this was a time he put several videos one after the other and was considering delaying his book again because it wasn't ready.
*put out
I focused on that because YOU did too. And you always talked to me about stuff like what video you were working on, what Twitter drama you'd seen, etc. Especially cause we're both heavily invested in the RWBY community.
Also that was a JOKEY statement. One you literally admit you found cute. There's a bunch of people who publicly post about their relationship and be cute. And I was happy to put it out there that I loved you and (as far as I knew), we were great
Also little side note, notice how I tried to stay general with the circumstances leading up to the breakup yet he's trying to go full throttle with details. Many of which are framed wrongly against me or just incorrect.
This frames it like I blocked him cause of Adam which I didn't. I had Maxwell blocked for awhile because back when I made a tweet about thinking Jason was a much better Qrow, he was one of the people accusing me of "only not liking Vic's acting now cuz it's popular to hate him"
As of last month, I thought of it as unneeded to still have him blocked for that and unblocked him. It was just after V7C1 released that all this instance happened.
Ok this contains a flat out lie. I didn't tell Thomas to "shut up". I did a shushing noise and said "wait I wanna hear the new song". We then talked about the chapter overall once the song finished and the end credits was over.
And that mutual friend he mentions, I won't mention her name for privacy sake but there was ONE instance of me saying a jokey statement in a group chat we were in and Thomas, her, and I talked about. No such "multiple" incidents occured and she and I are still friends.
Another lie. The "whatever" was a sarcastic one that I literally immediately laughed off. And he brought it up to me in Messenger later and we talked it out that I hadn't meant it that way. Tbh that's an example of us both communicating well in my eyes.
I legit do not remember this happening. At all. In fact, I remember us conversing over the scene and making comments about Winter being chosen the maiden. That might just be my memory so if I did silence you during this specific instance, I apologise, Thomas.
*chosen as
Ok that goes over the relationship section. It's late (almost midnight here) so I'm gonna go ahead and relax now but be assured that I WILL talk about this more tomorrow
