Hey guys! I actually spent long minutes staring at these reblogs and debating whether it was worth responding and talking about or not. But as I'm not the type to take hate and keep quiet, I decided to talk about it.

First of all, Reia, you really seem like a person who doesn't read many fanfics for the way you put it in your text, so I'll explain the meaning of the word. Fanfic, short for "fan fiction", is a story written by a fan based on characters, universes, or real people (like the triplets). Fans create their own narratives, expanding or reimagining everything, creating their own version, which in real life does not exist OR, as writers, we often draw inspiration from real-life events too.

And yes, you and Evangeline are trying to be "fanfic police" and even "sturniolo police", if you scroll through the thousands of Sturniolo Triplets fanfics, you will come across A LOT where Matt, Nick or Chris go through situations of anxiety attack, panic attack, OR where the "reader" herself goes through this, sometimes even involving situations way worse than that. Furthermore, there's thousands of fanfics describing explicit sex scenes with them, the famous smuts, does that bother you too? Because in the world of someone who writes a FANFIC in here, it doesn't.

And yes, I was indeed writing about the meet and greet situation, and this was nothing new to ANYONE in the fandom WHO READS THE FANFICS HERE. I even made a post the day before ASKING who would like to read the idea, and you want to know the news? All 200 people who voted wanted it.

I understand that you feel this story is disrespectful FOR YOU, especially because it touches on a real-life situation that may be sensitive or painful for some people. I want to assure you that it was never my intention to cause harm or disrespect anyone involved in that situation.

I myself am diagnosed with chronic anxiety, and even so, I didn't feel affected by the way I wrote. In fact, I described how I feel during MY anxiety attacks.

In no way did I make fun of the situation Matt went through, in fact, my intention in writing this story was to explore Matt's complexity and show how he deals with real problems, such as anxiety. It was a way to give more depth to his situation during the tour and highlight the importance of the emotional support he receives from "Y/N". It was not my intention to mock him, but rather to explore his humanity and the challenges he faced, and I know with all the certainty in the world that I did not mock him, much less affect the people who read the story.

Please, I ask you to reevaluate the need to throw hate at a person who has nothing to do with your outside the box opinions of what WRITERS ON THE STURNIOLO'S TUMBLR should or shouldn't write about.

There are thousands of posts on Instagram and TikTok from "fans" really mocking Matt and throwing hate at him about "their bad experiences" during one of the shows, these are the people you should be giving a piece of your mind to, not me. 🩷

For the niche ask game, laszlo kreizler

Hello Reia my love, I'm sorry this took me so long!

a song that reminds me of them

Fine Line by Harry Styles

what they smell like

Laszlo has a very faint scent—like rainfall or the deep parts of a forest. Some of it's natural, although he does like to treat himself to expensive perfumes and soaps that definitely contribute.

an otp

I loved him and Mary in the first season 🥺

a notp

And I fucking hated Karen in the second season. The way she talked annoyed me so bad that I had to pause it every time she came on screen to prepare myself.

favorite platonic/familial relationships

I love him and John's friendship!

a headcanon that is popular in the fandom but that i disagree with

It's probably because I'm not personally interested in it, but I don't think he'd be that interested in hard dom/sub dynamics. I think he's more of a romantic when it comes to sex.

the position they sleep in

Flat on his back with his arm crossed over his chest.

a crossover au i’d love to see them in

I don't know again! I guess I don't spend that much time thinking about crossover AUs.

my favorite outfit they’ve ever worn

Not technically an "outfit" but the scene where he angrily strips his shirt off was, uh, great!

Niche Questions

[reiashiftsrealities]

I hear so many people talk about how the “coincidences” between Katniss Everdeen and Lucy Gray Baird weakened the storyline and I just do not agree.

Coriolanus Snow is naturally a cold, hardened leader. We have seen throughout all four books that he is cruel. There have been only two people he has ever had true compassion for and that is his mother and Lucy Gray. Lucy Gray was the love of his life up until the point in which she left him.

How did she leave him? She told him, and I quote:

“I think I’ll go dig up some katniss, since we got the fire going anyway. There’s a good patch by the lake.”

Snow’s last memory of Lucy Gray was her leaving to get katniss roots. So imagine his surprise when a fiery, spirited young girl named Katniss Everdeen is the tribute from 12, wearing a mockingjay pin of all things, and with obviously no respect for the Capitol. Almost the exact same as Lucy Gray.

He’s always been a cold leader, but he had a obviously special vendetta against Katniss.

The similarities between the two didn’t weaken the plot.

It made it personal.

Guys please let’s be real. Greta Van Fleet isn’t splitting. Artists do side projects ALL THE TIME. Jake isn’t attached to the band at his hip he can diversify his talents however he wants. GVF is continuing to make music and that is that. Nothing more. Nothing less. Stop spreading shit you know nothing about.

Putting my actual birthday message here so the opps or rather the gvf fandom don’t see it (trying not to get doxxed again word)

If I were in my DR right now I’d be writing this on a piece of paper folded in half because I was too lazy to get one from the store, and knowing you you’d hang it on your fridge regardless. Or you’d stuff it in a drawer no one has opened for years but I’m choosing to believe you’d have some sentimentality today. You’d also probably give me a piece of paper with a few nice words on it, but I’d hand it to Danny and never look at it again because you know I don’t like celebrating. But nonetheless, Sammy, I hope you know the thought makes me smile. Happy 25th birthday you very very old man, I love you to pluto and back :)

(we’re gonna ignore that I’m turning the same age)
