In a TwitLonger and a series of Tweets, Ashtronova explained what happened with her and Mew a year ago. She starts by saying Mew has no idea that she was going public with her side of the story. Ashtro continued by saying they both went to a club with some other creators during her last night at the content house. She also confirmed that everything was very professional till he started buying her drinks. She said:
“At this point, there were no signals I got from Mew that he liked me or anything the entire week I was there. It was completely professional up until the point when he started buying me drinks. It didn’t seem like he was doing this for anybody else except me.
“I don’t know how many drinks he gave me that night. I was dancing with the other girls and getting over my social anxiety and trying to socialize and make friends with everyone.”

She also accused him of knowing what he did was wrong and that he was “love bombing” her with flowers, chocolate, snacks, teddy bears, and plushies when she “ghosted” him.
“He kept pressing me to reassure him that I did consent that night. He would not drop it. He needed to get it in writing, or something. Like he was feeling guilty about what he did. I still have texts from him saying “I know I’m asking this for the 4th time, but you have no regrets about that night right?” long after that night.”
At the end of the TwitLonger, Ashtro expressed her disappointment towards everyone who was at the content house. She said not only did they let this happen, but they also swept it under the rug.
