An insane rrat just came to me.
Luca has been suspected of leaking those screenshots, either directly or indirectly. Let's assume he really did share them. But who would he share with? Based on his character, especially with it being brought into question recently, there's no doubt that you would think he would share with his friends to laugh at.
But what if he shared them with management? This would have to mean that while he might use creative on a survival Minecraft server, he wanted to help someone out. Maybe Scarle went to him because she knew he might've had more pull and his words might've lead to action. However, once they were shared with management, they said there was nothing they could do. This possibly led to them (Scarle and Aster maybe Luca) eventually working it out and moving on entirely.
But why would management want to leak the screen shots? Obviously to take the heat off themselves. Everywhere on the internet, people are pissed that Selen was pushed to a suicide attempt. Twitter, Reddit, 4chan and Dramatubers made their dissatisfaction known, and it even led to sponsors/partners pulling out. NijiEN Management would certainly realize this wasn't looking good for them, so they had to deflect the blame partially. What better way than to use screen shots of a past issue between two livers?
Once the screen shots are posted, people get pissed at a (possibly) isolated incident. The plan would be to demonize Luca and Aster both, make them targets and get calls for termination. In order to save some face, they eventually terminate both of them for leaking information protected by an NDA, bullying, harassment, as well as other things they could possibly get them on citing the "leaked" screenshots. Luca and Aster take the fall, NijiEN makes a statement saying "We do not condone harassment and will be making major changes in internal procedures in response to these situations." Then, NijiEN does nothing, while making it look like it's all cleaned up.
They would lose one of their more popular livers and one of their least popular livers in the process, but it's not a total loss as they both have some baggage and are not absolute angels. Wouldn't you consider it worth it if it meant the ignorant viewers ate that shit up and then felt better about supporting their oshi again?
Enjoy my fanfic, I'm going to bed now.
