I’d like to once more talk about the 2021 situation with you all again. If you weren’t aware, I used to be part of a friend group in 2021 that involved a dangerous cycle of minors sending each other porn and normalizing it to each other. This friend group included who you all know as “Red”, someone who you may only know for getting exposed in September of 2023. I have recently been contacted by a group of people who more thoroughly looked at what happened back then and have dubbed my involvement in the group as unintentional grooming. I contributed to normalizing the action of sending porn around him. I am making this now because this is a viewpoint I had never been exposed to before this point. The claim has been made before that Red was the one who groomed everyone else, but this is not true, and never something I agreed with. I was the Oldest in the group, therefore responsible for what happened. No matter my intentions. The friend group started when I was 15 and Red was 13. The sexual activity in the group had persisted up until September of 2023, red would have been 16 and I would have been 18. It had gone on for so long due to the normalization within the friend group. His callout acted as a sort of wakeup call. After this, the entire group would begin to start distancing towards Red. Over time his reputation would get worse and his name dragged through the mud. All for things that had been normalized through the friend group I had heavy influence in. The document that popped up in 2025 containing all the images I had been sending in the friend group was an attempt at finally showing my wrongdoings. The choice to release a drive of uncensored porn (most of which was drawn when I was a minor) was still wrong. And it did nothing but damage. But I had used that misstep, and Red’s other misdeeds to essentially silent any talk about what I had done. At every step I handled this situation terribly and I’d like to give another example of that.

In 2022 Ruby had frantically messaged me about a “MAP” twitter account that looked like it had belonged to Red. He was posting very worrying stuff on the account, for still being a minor. I was directed to talk to him about it because Ruby was too scared to. It was found out that someone much older than him was basically encouraging the use of a paraphilia account to him. You might know this person as “WillowPoke”, (I see no point in hiding this name). Seeing all of this and being told to message him, I did. And I proceeded to make it about our project’s reputation as opposed to actually trying to help him out of a bad situation. I was completely unequipped for a situation like this. And in turn, did damage. I had the chance to help him but through sheer lack of knowledge on how to navigate a situation like this, I hurt him badly.

Throughout this three year era (2021-2023) my perception was completely skewed and my priorities were not straight. I valued keeping my reputation because I was convinced it was something that mattered above all. Becoming a well known figure at a young age made me an objectively worse person. It accentuated bad traits and made me ignore or become blind to what was truly wrong or right. These habits didn’t go away, and even if I’ve worked on myself since then, they have still woven themselves into my personality. I can’t handle having a platform, and haven’t been able to for awhile.

If there’s one thing I’d want people to take from all of this besides my inactions, it would be to finally leave Red alone. He has been treated badly all over the mistakes he made as a kid. I was complicit and let it happen for far too long. If you were ever harassing him on my behalf, please stop. He deserves to grow from his mistakes and be given just as much grace as I was given in 2025.

That was the stuff that matters, you don’t need to read further if that is all you came for. But I’d like to get into what I’m going to do going forward.

Over the past 3 years I’ve worked on improving my own control of habits formed during 2021. I caused damage to everyone around me, but I sustained damage as well. In 2024 I started an AD alt account (Of which I mentioned in the 2025 response doc) and in early 2025 I completely wiped it and have stayed away from content creation of that nature since. I no longer participate in anything near sexual with friends and would like to keep it that way. I have a close support group who makes sure I keep away from unhealthy behaviours. I’ve made progress but I still have a ways to go. I’ve found that continued progress cannot be made with a crowd watching me.

I’ve explained already how badly having a platform has skewed my judgement. Along with everything I’ve already mentioned, it's made me an overall negative person in conversation. I shit talk way too easily on the basis of jealousy involving projects. I’m constantly unhappy with my “fans” and anything surrounding my projects. I get way too emotional over people being cruel to my work. I need to be able to grow without subconsciously caring so much about upholding my reputation, so I can properly focus on myself. So what will I do?

I’ve decided I will leave the Dave & Bambi community. I’ve grown an unhealthy relationship with it. Taking everything negative I see about me to heart. I’ve not had fun within it for years now. I’ve frankly not been a fan for a while. I have no ill will towards anyone I’ve met, or worked with. Nor any negative feelings towards any content itself. It’s all for fun at the end of the day. But it’s just not healthy for me to be around. What will this actually look like?

I will completely stop using this Twitter account. It’s my only account with a pretty definitive Dave & Bambi attachment and I think Twitter in general would be good for me to get off of. Any accounts belonging to projects I am involved in will be managed by someone else.
I will be dropping any involvement with the team behind VS Dave, this includes handing over my ownership of Berenice.
I will not be posting about any Dave & Bambi adjacent content anymore. And for Golden Apple, you will have to go to Sky for that. I can no longer be a beacon of news or updates. I will still be involved with Golden Apple, as it cannot exist without me, I am 1 of 2 pieces to the puzzle. Golden Apple will however be working to distance itself as a Dave & bambi mod. It’s already been in action for months now. While I will still be doing work for Golden Apple, I cannot be involved in any sort of PR. Any inquiries or questions about the project, work related or otherwise, cannot be aimed at me. My involvement going forward is planned to be mostly private and behind the scenes. The project itself has had a major downsizing anyways.

I have a lot of stuff I want to make, but for the time being, I don’t want an audience dedicated to me solely. I have not been told to do this by anyone, it is my own decision. Enjoy the work, not the person. That’s my request.

I have one more thing I want to say about this all. I kindly ask no one directs anger towards anyone else regarding my own actions. I should be the only one who gets flack for this particular situation (the friend group).

I was originally contacted about this situation about a month ago. It’s taken this long for the sake of not wanting my loved ones and family to have to worry about what will come after this document is released. So please, do not involve them. They don’t deserve to be affected by any of this. You might see my work pop up in projects owned by people close to me. This would be me helping out people I love. Unlike before, you won’t see me advertising the fact I worked on something. Be civil to the people who I work with and treat them with respect, even if you no longer respect me.

This is about all I have to say. I know nothing can truly undo the damage I have caused, but maybe releasing this document can be a step. I have no intentions of changing usernames or running away. That won’t help anyone.
