A complete, utter, absolute annihilation of Pengo’s accusations against PurpleKecleon.

I realize this is a really really super duper long document (133 pages!) and not everyone wants to read it.

So I thought perhaps I would write a quick tl;dr of the highlights.

PK repeatedly asked Pengo if the workload was okay, and every time he said yes; he also went out of his way to offer more than once. She put out a call for more musicians to ease the load on him, and set up Bandcamp solely so he and the other composers could get some compensation for their time. In his callout, Pengo summarizes this as “pk ran me ragged” and “i ran the pmd-e bandcamp for pk”.

While sharing a hotel, Pengo asked PK to go microwave some food for him, but the lobby was locked for the night, so she could not. Upon her return, Pengo (who was drawing on PK’s livestream) made a comic depicting PK giving Pengo a gift and Pengo responding by punching her in the face.

Pengo’s callout heavily stresses that things were rough for his friend because her grandma had just died in a car accident. He condemns PK repeatedly for not seeming to care. The unredacted logs reveal that Pengo never actually informed PK of this, and in fact she still didn’t know until we found out from the callout post.

Pengo demonizes Naki for harassing a 16-year-old girl unprompted (“incredibly scary actions”); the actual story involves the girl deliberately splashing Naki while she was on the phone with her partner, trying to deal with a potential panic attack.

Pengo and his friend repeatedly took great liberties with PK’s generosity and actively interfered with her and her friend’s sales at AX. Pengo devotes a great deal of his callout to criticizing PK for not going to even greater lengths to improve his AX experience, after PK got Pengo and his friend free admission as “helpers”.

Pengo misremembered a story his friend had relayed, but was adamant that he hadn’t. This made it look to PK like his friend was actively trying to drive Pengo away from her. Once this was cleared up, they both apologized. In his callout, Pengo uses this incident as an example of friend policing and gaslighting.

Pengo’s primary argument for PK’s pattern of abuse is: a handful of tweets from our boyfriend’s ex, expressing concern that PK “may have” manipulated him. There is no explanation of what the manipulation is, or why the ex believed it was happening.

Pengo’s callout says PK got him to read an email from Mike, and suggests she lured him into laughing at Mike’s expense. This is his reason for not sending an apology to PK. Logs reveal that Pengo offered to read the email, and he was the first to crack jokes.

Pengo blames PK for not coming to him before the callout was written, but had seemingly had her blocked the entire time. The very last thing Pengo ever said to PK was:

[7/15/2013 9:21:24 PM] nagitokun the swaggiesolvent: yeah no i wasnt punishing you it was just my own bullshit getting in the way which doesnt really make it better but im sorry to have done that and to have also given the impression that something you were doing was wrong and somehow deserved punishment

There are also events where the callout confuses cause and effect, incidents where the callout gets roles completely backwards, and places where the callout describes something as having been angry or intimidating even though the actual logs show that the two of them talked it out and apologized. And some half a dozen paragraphs where the callout admits that Pengo didn’t actually tell PK that there was a problem. And the stuff that outright contradicts logs. And the one part where Pengo prides himself on not “dragging people through the mud publicly”, like PK does.

Details and logs for all of these things are in the document if you’re curious. It’s a pretty good read and it took a lot of work to compile!
