>>109571221We do know that some things in the Ari stream were lies/half-truths. She claimed that the announcement came out of nowhere, but Zen and Ari had talked just a few hours before because Ari removed Zen-Ari emotes ahead of time (and one can speculate it was tied to Mei, because of things Mei has gestured at regarding the issue, and the fact that she had confronted Ari that same evening.). Secondly, there's the matter of "telling people who she couldn't collab with" where she tries to emphasize that it's something wrong to do, but Mouse had, during Ari and Zen's fight in June, told all of VChiban to unfollow and alienate Zen (the only one not complying was Rose). Third of all, Ari talked about how they "tried to work things out several times" but after things seemed to look fine and stable, it was Ari that took it too far by booking a double solo-collab with Mouse right after trying to smooth things out.
