The Twitch streamer continued the discussion by stating that she was still processing the situation and that she wanted to notify her audience regarding the matter:

"And just somebody that has been quite vocal about other people doing the same thing and how gross it is, and how disgusting it is, so it was like, quite hard for me. I was just quite confused and I still am. So like I said, I'm still processing it but I just wanted to tell you guys what's up, because I still want to keep making content and I don't want to talk about this again. Past today."

F1elly began tearing up on the stream and added:

"But yeah, I just don't- it didn't feel fair, even in the moment of confusion. It didn't feel fair for someone to be able to take away a weekend that I really worked hard to plan for. Like, really hard to plan for. So it didn't feel fair that someone could take that away from me. So that's why I kept going. And we had like, a really fun time. We did. Didn't we? We had a really fun time. And hopefully we can do that again."
