[tottwritesfanfic]

My brain: hi, we've got a lot going on IRL right now, so I'm shutting down creativity again as a self-defence measure, kay?

Also my brain: so...how about accidentally faceplanting back into another fandom you thought you already escaped, and remembering that massive AU you started once upon a time and never did anything with? but, you know, while not losing any of your desire to finish long-ass WIPs in the other two fandoms you were already working on. Natch.

Also also my brain: ...and don't forget about NaNoWriMo!

[shiftyopossum]

I haven't shifted yet, but i like to ramble about my DRs! Anyone can feel free to ask me about them. Oftentimes having people ask questions helps me plan things better / script easier. Im pretty much an open book - i tend to overshare tbh. So be nosy as much as you want, but if a line needs to be drawn then i wont be upset and will instead just say it nicely. Like, i did say ask whatever, so if i get uncomfy then its my job to handle it lol. /srs

Anyways, heres some of my DRs!

Undertale || multiple; underground - i grew up after falling as a young child / frisk AU (i take frisks place) / Big sib AU (I'm Frisk's adopted older sibling and travel with them) / multiverse mash (basically like those fanfics but not romantic, im just a dumbass they have to deal with lmfao) / squad mash (the fic thing but with my main OCs there as my friends who got pulled in too)

I just love my psycho slasher men but dont want to like ... get hurt 💀 cjhxhshs. I'm working out the details but I know what i want generally.

[lilis-doodle-dome]

List of au’s that live in my head rent free, but I’m too lazy to actually do anything with them:

Pictured above:

- Vr au that Kokichi manages to escape from, and now he has to figure out how to save his classmates when they’re still stuck in the simulation. Also why is the entire facility abandoned and what’s this weird Ch1ak1 AI?

- Post game au, where it was real and everyone’s dead, but through some shenanigans Kokichi and kaito both also survived. Although Shuichi did have to suffer through an execution that he barely survived so they could live!

Other au’s:

- superpower au, but they’re stuck in a lab and there’s lots of angst. Powers are actually not all that great to have either

- On a similar note: Bnha au, I have two of them. One where it’s just V3 has quirks (or don’t) and go to UA

-and one where actually they live on a totally separated island where propaganda has fed them “quirks bad” and everyone who has a quirk lives on suppressants. So instead they developed the “ultimate” system so people could still feel special. UA and HPA each year send exchange a few students between them, the island does this to keep up appearances for ~reasons~

- Phantom thief au, cause yeah

- regular HPA aus

- talent shift au (not quite the same as talent swap)

- Shuichi joins DICE

-many many more

Feel free to ask about any of these aus, I love all of them and would like to give more info if people are curious.

Bnha! Player! Shoto Todoroki

Player: 'Suke'

Version: English

Costume: Blue ver

(Can choose from the different versions of the characters hero costume as the starter one, but need to pay/ad to choose other than default)

After building up speed, he can run across walls

--

AU where a few players play a VR Bnha game based on the Anime, but in reality, they take over the bodies of their chosen Avatar

Players can only exit the game when asleep

The long they play, the moth tied to the body they get

--

Fave food: Soba restores the most

Fave color: Golden/Brown

My idea for a danganronpa/bnha crossover

Anyone is welcome to write for this AU. Spoilers for the AU deaths and all danganronpa games below. 

Feel free to submit asks and suggestions, I may even move this to a new blog. 

I have to credit half of this AU to my friend  @onyxfang99

Extra Info

Due to the large cast, there are 8 Chapters instead of 6. 

The Survivors

Izuku Midoriya: The main character. He is also one of the smartest there, which means he wouldn’t be a victim, and he’s too much of a cinnamon roll to kill. He is very much a mix of Makoto and Shuichi.

Shoto Todoroki: I see him taking a Kyoko approach. He is also very close to Izuku, whether this relationship is platonic or romantic is up to the writer. 

Momo Yaoyorozu: Another smart character that would be helpful in trials. Smart enough not to kill or be killed. 

Tsuyu Asui: Very much a Sonia + Maki type. Helpful but not particularly relevant to the main story. I don’t see her as the comic relief survivor (like Himiko/Kazuichi/Aoi) but I don’t see her being a big important survivor (like Byakuya/Kyoko/Fuyuhiko) 

Katsuki Bakugo: A Fuyuhiko type character. Very closed of from other characters but his character develops at the loss of the ones closest to him. (Unfortunatly, that includes the entire Bakusquad) 

Chapter 1

Victim: Yuuga Aoyama

Killer: Mina Ashido

Chapter 1 is always a murder gone wrong/an unplanned victim (Leon, Komaeda, The Mastermind). Aoyama is a very easy target, although I definitely don’t see Mina planing a murder, so instead I see her murdering accidentally/in retaliation.

Chapter 2

Victim: Mashirao Ojiro

Killer:  Mezou Shouji

Chapter 2 will not follow the usual chapter 2 route, as that will be left for chapter 3. This is probably the chapter I’m the least sure about, but I know that Shouji being the killer is going to be essential for Tokoyami’s character development. Ojiro’s death is important for Hagakure’s later actions.

Chapter 3

Victim: Minoru Mineta 

Killer: Eijirou Kirishima

Chapter 3′s motive is secrets. Originally, the killer in this chapter was supposed to be Kaminari, but I managed to veto that and have him survive a little longer. Despite this, the whole case has a lot to do with Kaminari and the aftermath is important later on. 

One of the main secrets is to do with more than one of them being gay. There begins major homophobia from Mineta, which pisses Kaminari off big time. Kaminari does attempt to kill Mineta, but Kirishima finds out about the attempted murder (and that Mineta is currently dying) and instead delivers the final blow. 

During the trial, Kaminari works his ass off to convince everyone he’s the killer, which is actually relatively easy, but eventually it gets out that Kirishima is the actual killer and Bakugo looses his shit. He turns full on Kiyotaka, but Kirishima accepts the punishment. While Kaminari still fits for people to blame him, Kirishima tells him that he didn’t kill Mineta just for Kaminari, but also in anger for driving even Kaminari to kill. 

Bakugo gets his Fuyuhiko moment. Kirishima’s death is one of the first biggest hits to the group.

Chapter 4

Victims: Kyouka Jiiro, Hanata Sero

Killers: Tooru Hagakure, Ochako Uraraka

Chapter 4 is a double murder, with two murderers. Danganronpa V3 were such pussies for making Kiyo both killers, because the idea of having two murderers is much to interesting to waste. The second killer (Uraraka) isn’t discovered until a later chapter, although there are a few definite suspects (Who I haven’t decided on yet)

Hagakure’s motive is purely selfish. I haven’t figured out what it is yet, but it is. It’s likely something to do with Ojiro’s death, but I haven’t decided. 

Chapter 5

Victim: Kouji Koda

Killer: Fumikage Tokoyami

The death of the gentle giant. A very Chapter 4 esque murder, although we haven’t quite hit the self sacrifice chapter yet. Tokoyami’s motives are closely aligned with Shoji’s death, but he has been shown to be able to get angry/violent and immature. 

Chapter 6

Victim: Hitoshi Shinsou

Killer: Denki Kaminari

This is the painful chapter. The truly painful chapter. 

The motive is extremely similar to chapter 4 game 2 which was the funhouse and everyone starving to death. Shinsou gets the idea to commit suicide, but Kaminari attempts to talk him down. In the end, Kaminari brings up the wording. He doesn’t believe that a suicide would count as a murder in Monokuma’s eyes, which would make Shinsou’s death meaningless. So Kaminari offers to kill Shinsou, explaining that he should have died back in the third chapter. Kaminari quickly brings this up when Bakugo begs him to explain himself. Bakugo struggles to accept it while Kaminari screams and cries about Kirishima’s death being all his fault. He also tells them that he won’t live in a world without Shinsou. 

Chapter 7

Victim: Tenya Iida

Killer: Ochako Ururaka

This is the ‘chapter 5′ of this story. The victims and Killers are always important, central characters (Mukuro and Junko, Nagito and Chiaki, Kokichi and Kaito), and as Izuku’s two best friends, it makes almost too much sense for them to be the final victim and killer. 

The killer is also always set up (the first game gives us Makoto/Kyoko being set up as the killer. Chiaki was an unwilling killer. Kaito did it because otherwise Maki would be a killer). And, aside for the first game, it is always something to confuse the player and the rest of the cast (Nagito’s set up to confuse them/reveal the traitor, Kokichi’s plan to confuse Monokuma). 

Keeping these things in mind, perhaps it is likely that Uraraka is doing it to mess with Monokuma. In the trial is comes out that she was also Sero’s killer, which pisses Bakugo off immensely. 

Chapter 8, the over arching story, and the aftermath

The fabricated story they’ve been given is that they were kidnapped from their homes by a crazy Danganronpa fanatic. This is partially true, but the fanatic is a villain. They were kidnapped from U.A. The setting for the whole story is U.A, but not the real one. Instead, it’s a Danganronpa 2 set up, with virtual reality. While they’ve been found by U.A staff, including Aizawa, they are unable to escape the game or shut it down, due to a SAO situation (If you’re unsure of what that means, it means that if you take off the headset, it kills the person). How they find out is when they try it with Mineta (who dies because I hate him).

The big twist is that inside vr, they have no clue what quirks are. They’re just normal, quirkless people. Of course they have talents which are very reminiscent of their quirks, but they are all ordinary people. This includes people with heteromorphic quirks such as Tokoyami and Ashido.

The survivors, of course, don’t believe this because their understanding of the world is very different than ours. To them, quirks don’t exist nor to heroes/villains. The shock is great when they wake up having quirks. Their memories of being at U.A slowly return, but the trauma of the game is forever with them. Of course, Aizawa, being the parent he is, helps them through it all, making sure they don’t blame themselves. It’s a struggle, but they get through it.

Bnha/mha fic ideas

I finally felt up to making a list of my bnha Aus. I hope everyone had a good holiday (or is still having a good holiday I believe hannukah is still going) I got some pretty cool stuff and got to try out vr for the first time at a relatives house. Without further ado lets get one with the list, deku is my favorite character so most of these stories will have the main focus on him sorry. Note: I'm really bad at coming up with names so most of them suck.

Can you see the beacon- originally called eri's savior its now called can you see the beacon or quirkless deku au. Its suppose to follow the story in a world where midoriya rejected OFA and stayed quirkless while still becoming a hero. I have written outlines up to chapter 24 already I just want to finish sleeping beau before I start on it. Some things will definitely change canon wise (how can it not) but a lot of big events still happen (except for one but you'll have to wait and see which one). This au does have a pairing its shindeku (shinsou x midoriya).

Moved away au- this one focuses on a nonquirkless deku still being bullied and treated as quirkless so he and his mom move. But he ends up moving to the same district as kirishima and Mona and becoming friends with both of them. This one will be a dad for one story (basically hishashi is AFO) so deku's quirk will be related from his. The pairing for this is kirideku (mostly because I never find full story kirideku fics they're usually just oneshots or full of fluff).

Sunshine child au- this is probably my favorote of all my bnha ideas. Originally i was going for a realistic villain deku but it turned into not quite hero but not quite a villain either (or a vigilante). I don't want to spoil to much about this one because it works best learning alongside the characters. There is no pairing for this one and once I start posting it you'll realize why.

Villain deku tt au- this one took a lot of thinking and I almost scrapped it multiple times but now its starting to come together. Again not saying much about it but hopefully soon I can work on it. Pairing is a mystery.

Peter pan au- I love the characterization of the old peter pan and thought it would make an interesting au.

Peter pan-midoriya

Lost boys?-

Tsuyu

Shoji

Mono

Ojiro

Jirou

Newcomers-

Urakaka

Lida

Todoroki

Captain hook- bakugou

Captain's crew-

Kirishima

Sero

Denki

Nina

Omegaverse au- the usual three extra dynamics of alpha, beta, omega. Deli is genderfluid and the younger half sibling of bakugou. The pairing is lida x deku x Ochako.

Animal bride au- I love mythology and the animal bride stories always made me upset that most of them couldnt get revenge on thier captors. I wont list everyones species but some of the bigger ones.

Deku- goat

Bakugou- swan

Todoroki-?

Ochaka- seal

Kirishima- shark

Lida- human

Hannibal au- if you've ever seen the show Hannibal then you know how dark and messed up it gets. Note: everyone in this au will be an adult (1-A, 1-B will all be in thier mid to late 20's) except eri and kouta. There is a pairing and i know who will fill most of the roles but I won't say them until the story is posted (mainly cause I don't wanna get hate over it.)

I really like bnha but a lot of things that happened in canon annoy me so a lot of my aus focus of either exploring those things or fixing them. A lot of these are actually gen I'm just tired and don't want to take the time to type it out.

[punkinroses]

B, L, M, N, S, T for the fanfic ask game

FanFic Ask Game

Thank you so much for the questions!

B: Any of your stories inspired by personal experience?

So I think a lot more of my more original projects do, more so than my fanfics. Like there might be a couple things I think I’ll end up drawing from, mostly because I think there’s a lot of raw stuff to draw from when you look from experiences of yourself and the world around you. But mostly it’s more or less that the projects my friends and I are making to be part of our production company really, really draw from a lot of my own inner things, especially one I’ve been wanting to write for the last year or so.

L: How many times do you usually revise your fic/chapter before posting?

I feel like it kind of depends. I also tend to write everything in chunks, and take breaks, rather than just sit down and crank everything out. When I go in to write another chunk, I’ll kinda just look over what I have written before, sometimes read it out loud (especially to Nat) and then edit where things need to be fixed. So, typically, it just depends on how many chunks I end up writing before posting something.

M: Got any premises on the back burner that you’d care to share?

There’s been a few. There’s a couple YuGiOh fics I wanna write, one about an OC. There’s some ideas I’ve had to explore like what life would be like for Noah if he was able to escape the VR world, things about Mai’s life and her trying to rebuild herself and new ideas about her backstory (including a half sister she tries to reconnect with who has a young daughter, and then that sister encourages her to finally go after Joey, meanwhile she meets a certain former DOMA member...it’s something I’ve been cooking up for a while), about Yugi and the others and life after DSOD...more explanations about what the actual FUCK was up with the Plana and that fucking 8th Millennium Item HELLO TAKAHASHI--

With BNHA, Nana’s story isn’t the only one I’m writing. I’m planning on writing and have gotten pieces written of the prequel story focusing on Allison and Toshi’s college days and their backstories, but will probably post that after a certain point in the story arc. There’s one I wanna do that’s Aizawa centric and him also getting a family bc GODDAMNIT LET THAT MAN BE A HUSBAND AND A FATHER P L EA SE. And possibly one about a villain OC that I feature that basically her Quirk turns her into a big fuck you demon.

I actually just had an idea I shared with my friend Kyler about how I think the anime should handle Galar now that Ash finally got his championship and we’ve been debating if the show would focus on him now or nah, and I think I have a really good idea in the works. Also maybe something focusing on the Mystery Dungeon ideas.

Digimon’s another one that I’ve been thinking about a lot more lately. I have an idea that was kinda fueled by things happening in my life right now (more or less frustration with something and that lead to me thinking up some things that would be cool).

Uhhhh what else what else...shit y’all I have a ton. All in the DC, SU, FE3H, hell Scooby Doo -- just all sorts of shit, guys!

N: Is there a fic you wish someone else would write (or finish) for you?

...all of my fics because I’m lazy.

(Though, for real, there is one that I’m wanting to see p bad and that’s like if Spinnel would have been part of the Crystal Gems. I think that would be a really interesting story. If anyone’s got links, p l e a s e hit me up.)

S: Any fandom tropes you can’t resist?

IDK if it’s a trope, but if anyone has Ghost Hunting AUs, hit me up, I live for that shit. I just found out Did You Just Punch Out Cthulu is a tv trope, and I want more fics like that. Please. That’s my new favorite trope of all time.

I’m a sucker for fake dating aus idk why. And like any future fics/next gen stuff bc I think it’s fascinating how people think different characters would grow up and what their kids would be like. Mostly I just like...read whatever looks like it catches my eye? I’m not really like picky picky and I can’t resist most things okay.

T: Any fandom tropes you can’t stand?

There’s like....none that I can’t stand, unless you go back to 2000s fanfiction where we all hated girl characters for getting in the way of our yaoi ships. We all did it. I’m tired and frustrated. It was a trope it just. Was everywhere.

Honestly the one that I don’t really like...get. Or really enjoy all that much ,even though they’re everywhere, is coffee shop aus. Not really my cup of tea. I like that they can be like full of variety and stuff but. Eh?

[femmeslash]

fuckinxhvvi ouma vr au last name aoyama thats the name of the blond twink who shoots lasers and speaks french in bnha

I KNOW OH MY GOD I FOUND THAT OUT WAY WAY LATER... LIKE... AT THE POINT WHERE I ALREADY HAD A PUBLISHED FIC WHERE HIS NAME IS AOYAMA...

fun fact, his birthname is the name of another dr character, and he irrationally hates that character for having the same name as his birth name

[xskyll]

Todoroki Shouto has gained +20 confidence. This number would perhaps be diminished if he realized he does not know the first OR last name of the boy he’s trying to date.

Prev / Next

First

[tottwritesfanfic]

alright i want to apologise in advance a bit, because I recently tripped and fell into another BNHA fixation, and it's sorta getting in the way of my other stuff.

So. If I look as if I've jumped fandoms for the next however long...I really haven't. I just added to the pile, and I'm returning to my old VR AU because holy ensemble cast, it sure does scratch that itch.

...is it bad that ensemble casts are basically a prerequisite for any fandom I might get invested in enough to write for?

Anyway, not the point. The point is that I'm channelling my current obsession into NaNo this year (as co-ML for Kent's region I try to give it my all when I participate!), so I'm afraid everything else is probably not going to get much love for the next few weeks or so.

Probably. I know what I'm like, and I usually find it hard to stick to one project at a time, especially if I don't want to burn out. TBH, that's the other reason I'm doing this - so far, the only part of this AU i've posted is a standalone prequel fic which no one really cared about anyway because it had no ships. So if I burn out and this goes nowhere, at least I haven't left anyone hanging, right?

Also, if you want to take a peek at any of the decidedly excessive worldbuilding notes I've been putting together for the last couple of weeks, just hit me up. So far there's like...10k of it, including my musings on how the hell to turn quirks into VR hacks which make sense on a digital platform. Some of these are more straightforward than others, let me tell you.

I am also decidedly in love with how OFA/AFO works in this setting, but that's for me to know and you to find out if I ever get as far as posting this damn thing.

also also dropping this here because I can and it gives you a bit of an idea of the setting: In the AU, basically the surface of the planet got screwed over a couple of hundred years ago, and everyone lives underground, logging into a VR world where they can roleplay as pre-disaster humans for the sake of their sanity for their waking hours. Quirks are basically government-sanctioned hacks which people apply to their VR accounts, because ultimately it was easier to legitimise and legislate them than try and get people to stop doing that. A chief problem in the story is dealing with the fallout of an entire world of people who no longer remember how to touch grass. (It's a lot more serious than this, but basically my planning seriousness is inversely proportionate to the tone of the fic itself, and I just. I cannot talk about my work in any other way.)

Here's a snippet from my planning document to give you an example:

Aizawa is just a regular-ass dude who got his hero licence in spite of his Exploit rather than because of it. He’s also IRL ripped because his eye problems aren’t exactly conducive to 16 hours of screentime a day. This is why no fucker has heard of him, because all his heroics happen in short, irate bursts before he logs out to dose up on fucking eye drops.

His chief strength in this AU is not a borderline gamebreaking exploit, it’s the fact that he can, like, actually function in the real world a hell of a lot better than most folks.

Which meeeeeeaans, that he becomes 1A's teacher in the real world, after they all realise they need to buff up for this shit because they’re (mostly) totally clueless on how to function outside of the Interface. In this fic, UA is basically 1A's super secret offline school where they learn proper fitness and agility, and the physical, mechanical skills they’re gonna need in order to pull off the heist of the century. Hahaha, Aizawa is gonna be That Guy who is super strict about everyone’s screen time lmao.

[rielity]

get to know the author?

I was tagged by @yaoyoroses despite me being totally MIA from tumblr and fandom in general recently, thank you!!! 

1. How did you come up with your username and what does it mean?

I’m snowdrops on ao3 - I was having a bleach phase and had an obsession with the thirteenth division of the gotei 13 when i created my ao3 account. the snowdrop is the thirteenth division’s insignia! it signifies hope.

2. Which fanfic of yours has the most feedback? (bookmarks/subscriptions/hits/kudos).

bookmarks:  red strings (dgm, lavilena + yullen, reincarnation au, 9.2k words) 

subscriptions: wandering spirits online (bleach x sao x log horizon, vr mmorpg au, 4k words, abandoned multichap) || the fic with the next highest number of subscriptions is red strings, which is a oneshot. in fact, i only write oneshots, with the exception of a couple of story collections, so why i have fic subscriptions at all is a true mystery.

kudos: herding cats (bnha, todobaku, neighbours au, 1.5k words)

hits: red strings (dgm, lavilena + yullen, reincarnation au, 9.2k words)

i’d like to point out here that this is probably not an accurate representation of the quality of my fics because red strings has been up on ao3 since 2014, and some of my newer fics have much higher pick-up rates relative to time elapsed

3. What is your AO3 profile icon, and why did you choose it?

yato for my main (dgm) pseud, osamu for my hq pseud, sj13 for my kpop pseud and placeholders for the rest.

4. Do you have any regular/favourite commenters?

I have regular commenters depending on the fic I’m writing - for haikyuu it’s @aritzen @ennotanafuta @chamomilea @puffandhuff @sapphyrelily; for bnha it’s the tdbk server. but favourite commenters? anyone who comments and leaves encouragement for me to keep going, especially when I’m struggling with writing and myself, is a favourite for me! I also know who my regular readers are, and I’m always grateful for them even if they don’t leave comments! 

5. Is there a fanfic that you keep going back to read again and again?

6. How many stories are you subscribed to? How many do you have bookmarked?

33 subscriptions (most of which are complete/from old fandoms that I no longer read) and 541 bookmarks across all pseuds

7. Which AU do you find yourself writing the most?

I mostly write canon universe, but in terms of au it’s definitely college au

33 subscribers, 393 bookmarks. i’ve been casually tracking the increase in stats here on this twitter thread. 

9. Is there something you’d like to write about but are afraid of people judging you for it? (Feeling brave? If so, share it!)

friends with benefits with feelings au, probably? though I don’t really care if people judge me for what I’m writing, so I guess it’s my own personal hesitance that’s stopping me from actually writing it. 

10. Is there anything you would like to be better at? Writing certain scenes or genres, replying to comments, updating better, etc.

one thing that I learnt from creative writing class is that I suck at writing visual descriptions, so I wanna work on that. I also want to be better at replying comments!!! 

11. Do you write rarepairs or popular ships more often?

i’m destined for rarepair hell

12. How many stories have you posted on AO3 to this day (finished and unfinished)?

78, 39 of which were published this year....--- wait WHAT

13. How many stories do you have saved in/with your writing program?

do you mean stories i half-started, or story ideas, or stories i’ve actually completed, or

14. Do you write down story ideas, or just keep them in your head?

I write them down on my phone, but more often than not they remain in that state lol

15. Have you ever co-authored a story?

nope, and I’m not sure I’d be able to. I’m incredibly picky and individualistic when I’m writing.

16. How did you discover AO3?

Gunny told me that lots of writers were posting fic on ao3 too, besides ffn, so I looked it up and started hanging around

17. Do you consider yourself to be a popular or famous author in your fandom(s) on AO3?

obviously not 

18. Do you have a nickname or fandom name for your readers?

what, no

19. Was there an author who inspired or encouraged you to write?

hmm there are fic writers who made me want to write like them - themorninglark, asofthaven, carafin, among others - and also book authors - tolkien, cassandra clare, neil gaiman.  

20. What writing advice would you give to a beginning author?

keep writing. a little every day builds up to a lot in a year.

21. Do you plot out your stories, or do you just figure it out as you go?

it... depends on the story. I’ve plotted every single one of my Timeless AU fics thus far, as well as my longer fics, but for shorter fics I tend to let the story go where it wants to 

22. Have you ever gotten a bad comment on a story? If so, what did you do?

mmm I got flamed on one of my crossover fics when I was starting out on ffn, but it was only the one time. I was rly young back then so I shall not reveal what I did lmao

23. Is there a certain type of scene that you have a hard time writing? (action, smut, etc..)

smut, and physical scenes in general. writing them makes me uncomfortable

24. What story(s) are you working on now?

kacchako zine and supposedly hqss, except i haven’t started on hqss

better, more daring, more experimental, and with yet more to learn

knowing the concept or the mood that i want to achieve (like plotting, but not really)

actually achieving/coming close to achieving that concept/mood (nearly impossible) & everything else, especially not falling back into cliches of my own writing

Shouto: What an absolutely silly concept.

If this one looks a little different, it’s cause I downloaded a new brush. If it doesn’t look different, it’s cause I don’t really know what I’m doing.
