Yandere!Wally Darling x Female Reader.

Summary: Reader goes for a stroll in the woods on the edge of The Neighborhood when it starts to feel like somethings wrong, when something tells them they’ve done all this before

AN- This is my first shot at a “Welcome Home” one-shot and I really hope that it turns out decent lol

Key: P/F= Preferred Flowers

TW: Manipulative behavior!!. Very descriptive setting/ other worldly feelings/ out of body feeling.

⚪️🟠🟡🟢🔵🟣🔴🟠🟡🟢🔵🟣🔴🟠🟡🟢⚫️

Breathing in the bittersweet and earthy tones of the hearty oak trees around you, your feet continue their walk on the colorfully (soft?) road. In your right arm a basket from Julie, you had been at her house to help her with a new garden set up and in return she gifted you a bouquet of (p/f)!

In your left hand you where periodically smelling the crazy rose you found growing alone a few feet away from all the other single colored roses, the outside petals where a beautiful royal blue and the inside was a dark hellish black. For some odd reason you saw it and just couldn’t stop thinking of the Darling, your darling, Wally Darling. You and Wally have been a thing for as long as you could remember. You’ve always lived in Home with him, you two are rarely apart, always attached at the hip.

You tried racking your brain as to how this crazy flower reminded you of him, maybe because it was so different, and to you Wally felt different. It would make sense you see him differently than the rest, he’s your love.

An odd feeling drew you from your thoughts, the pressure of a hard ground beneath your feet, and not the comfortable cradling one it was just in. Looking around you came to your senses and realized you where into the forest now, the colorful road long gone, you couldn’t even tell how far from it you where. Inspecting your surroundings it not only felt like you where looking around, but like something was watching you back, part of you wanted to believe it was watching you to keep you safe, but you knew it wasn’t real…..

You always asked Wally to go on pic-nic’s in the forest but he would steer you far far from the tall woods.

Thinking you could find your way back on your own you turned around and tried to go back the way you came. As you went on it felt like not only the ground was hard, but the sticks on the trees seemed harder than the soft squishy ones you would throw to Barnaby. Instead of the comfy rounded ends that would bump into you to make you aware of their presence, these sticks felt harsh and pokey, almost like they where grabbing at you with hands that belonged to the bodies the eyes inhabited and were pulling at your pretty mini rainbow dress that complimented your Wally.

Continuing your trek into the woods you started to realize little by little the odd changes. The air felt thick and muggy… you thought your eyes where tricking you, on the very edges of the trees and the bushes there was a darkness barley peeking it’s head out of hiding, just around your pupils… the sounds of the birds and bugs started to dull out into a sharp pitched sound, like when your dancing with Wally late into the night and your radio channel ends with a sharp sound that Wally quickly turns off, only exposing you for a spilt moment…

The basket in your arms feeling heavier then before, looking down to see the reason…. Your whole bouquet was wilted, all your pretty flowers you where going to show Wally… they where all dead, looking to the rose in your other hand the world around you started to spin, now instead of seeing it as your love, it made you feel sick, staring at the black center it consumed your eye sight, feeling like a black hole you where falling into.

You dropped the rose unable to move any other part of your body, the sharp brain warping sound filing your head, now not being able to feel anything, you slowly painfully lift your head to look around, there no more sounds, no more colors, no more dimension-

The trees are black lines filled in with a dark color that’s pulling you towards their gravity only for another to shove you in the opposite direction, the ground trips you even more off your trail as it looks like grey sand, slipping all over the floor. It doesn’t help when your already trying to get your way back. Everything started to move, the trees swayed almost animated… the bushes jumping up and down like an old cartoon, and then you, not even able to find a grip, because everything shocks you like static. A distorted voice coming from the trees breaks you out of your spin-

“Oh Mrs.Darling… My darling… haven’t we been through this already…. You can’t leave….. didn’t you learn that the first 3 times you tried this…..?”

Flashes of a bright white light blinding your vision and threw you in all sorts of directions, shapes and colors started to make pictures in your head.

A woman brushing a small girls hair into their favorite style

A bigger teenage boy throwing the smaller infant into the air and watching them giggle with joy…

A father and mother hugging the now ten year old child as a congratulations for making it to the next grade…

The older teenager who was once the child spending the day with their friends doing the things they all love…

The young adult once teenager hugging their parents in their soon to be filled apartment….

The grown woman sitting down after a long tiring day at their job, turning on the tv to watch a comforting show, the same, friendly, neighborly, bright colored show that kept them captive for hours.

a SNAP broke you from the visions and the warmth and comfort of your felt covered world came rushing back to you as you where almost blinded when the color seeped back into everything. Almost like time had been rewound to before you got lost from the road.

The stick that had just gave out beneath your foot being the only thing to assure you that what you had just been through was real. You took a step backward trying to catch your breath, feeling like something was gripping your lungs, the hands from the sticks grown into monstrously large and round hands squeezing every big of oxygen from squishy lungs, wringing them out like a water filled cloth. The ground giving out beneath you and throwing you back, almost like a million arms pushing you back towards your captivity.

Tumbling down the hill it’s impossible for you to hurt yourself, he made sure of that. Just the shock of everything that recently happened, you opened your mouth to scream but you weren’t even sure if anything came out…

You hit the bottom of the hill feeling your basket crush under your heavy body, the squished flowers ruining your dress, as you just lay there breathing, catching your breath, you hear light footsteps coming up to you. Pushing yourself up with all of your leftover strength your able to sit up, using your hips to cradle the rest of your upper anatomy you just look around.

“Oh my- DARLING!! Oh, are you alright?” Wally scrambled over to you with concern.

You’re standing in front of a flower field, turning around to face him he gasped and paused where he was standing. “Oh love, what happened?” Words escaped your mouth before you could form them, you couldn’t speak- your dress was torn up, your pretty little flower basket crushed, your hair undone from the pretty braids Wally had done that morning.

“I….. I Uhm…… I don-“

What had happened….. did you pass out? Yeah… yeah that must be it, how else could you explain your state.

“I was helping Julie and I must’ve passed out on my way back to Home” placing your hand on your head wiping off……….. sand? You shook out your dress as best you could and as the dress seemed to get rid of the sand it was gone the minute your eyes met it.

“Oh Darling you where never at Julie’s house.” Wally said with that calming smile.

“I wasn’t?” Looking down to your dress you saw that it was torn up and soggy but no remnants of your ruined flowers.

“There was a huge rainstorm, you came out to collect your gardening tools so they wouldn’t get ruined, that was 15 minutes ago I’ve been frantic.” He stated with a downward worried gaze going to embrace you.

Placing your head to his chest feeling the soft comforting warmth you always have, feeling so tired from……….. the storm, your ready to give out.

“Oh Darling your dress is all ruined, and your face is all muddy, oh my poor love, let’s go inside and get you cleaned up so we can head to bed, don’t worry my darling I’ve got you………. I won’t let you go………”

Opening your eyes your now at your vanity in your room, Wally’s brushing out your hair. Your wearing your matching blue pajama set.

“There we go my beauty, all cleaned up” he placed his hands on your arms and laid his head atop yours.

“Look at my pretty darling, my beautiful darling.” He sighed out kissing the top of your head then turning you around so that he may hold you just as he did in your garden.

Letting him go you spin around happily and throw yourself onto his side of the bed, giggling you see Home wave the cupboard doors around and shiver the room a bit. Wally chuckles a bit and lies down with you, all three of you sighing out in content, Home simply expanding the room a bit almost in a relaxed state.

“Goodnight Wally”

“Goodnight my darling” as you lay together you gaze into his eyes, thinking about how beautiful the color of his eyes would be as a flower…

If I was making a rowdyruff spin off, Here would be the episodes:

If I was making a rowdyruff boys spin off here would be the episodes.

(So premise, RRB actually have a room in MOJO and Him's house but most of the time MOJO and Him forget that they even exist so they live on the streets.

When they are not breaking in other ppl's home, they live inside the woods with their tents.)

(These episodes are in no specific orders just ideas)

My interpretation of the RRB is that personality wise their opposites to their counterparts but they sometimes parallel each other in terms of experiences.Like Bubbles and Boomer getting bullied/teased by their siblings, But they go about in two different ways.

FAMILY REUNION- In this Episode, HIM receives a call from his parents and they are having a family Reunion in the underworld (a.k.a. Hell). And Him takes the boys with them to see their grandparents.

I also added in a Lil rReunion.

Him: where's Boomer? Butch: Probably upstairs Brushing his hair so can be the scariest boy at the Reunion. Boomer: I'm gonna be the scariest boy at the reunion.

Him's real name is Lucifer but His Mom calls him "Luci" for short. Him's sister, Is called Lilith, But she goes by Lily.

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL -

The boys go to school, At pokey oaks kindergarten.

Boomer is canonically isn't afraid of cockroaches like Bubbles. So when he sees one he just picks it up. So in my headcanon, I made Butch unafraid of spiders.

The PpGs find them to be really weird.

Bubbles: Boomer is so weird, He picked up a roach from the ground. Gross.

Buttercup: Butch is the weirdest one, He picked up a huge hairy spider from the ground. That's not normal.

Blossom: Brick is the weirdest one, He thinks reading is for sissies!

ROWDY GANG - Basically the RRB meet the Gang green gang. And thinks their cool. Snake and Brick compliement each other's hats. Butch looks up to Ace. And Boomer hangs around big Billy. Ace and Brick think alike, Snake and Boomer can relate each other because their leader like smacking them alot whenever they talk. And Butch gets along with Glubber.

TWISTED BROTHER - (inspired by twisted sister), this episode has two ways:

-The boys find out how they are made and decided to recreate another brother to outnumber the girls. This Brother is named Bat, everything goes well and dandy until Bat realizes that his brothers are complete losers and try to take over the RRB by overthrowing Brick. It doesn't work, And it ends with The RRB being forced to kill their brother. (Cuz if he didn't they would have killed them)

Second way this goes, Is that they meet a sick kid with a terminal illness. He's name is Bat, They threatened to beat him up, Until Bat says "Go ahead, I'm gonna anyways" and they decided not to beat him up. Because they didn't want to beat up a sick kid with a terminal illness.

In this story, Bat is a human kid, who is hospital bound, His Parents both died in a car accident and he is stuck at the hospital for the rest of his life waiting to die. Until, He meets the RRB and becomes friends with them. He envies their freedom to do anything they want and go anywhere they want.

They stole the chemical x from the professor lab And gave Bat superpowers.

Anyway, The RRB and Bat end up going to this island to cause some mischief, They meet a villain who almost kills them. Bat saves them and they fly back to Townsville.

While flying back to Townsville, Brick notices Bat is flying a little slow compared to them. Bat mentions he feels queezy and Brick gives Bat a piggyback ride back to the hospital. While flying, Bat closes his eyes and never woke up. Brick and his brothers think that Bat fell asleep so they put him to bed at the hospital. But little did they did know "I feel little queezy" was going to be Bat's last words.

In the end the boys, Find out that Bat has died and they blame themselves because they think the chemical X made him worst. But in reality, Bat died cuz of his illness and his final days were the best days of his life because of the RRB.

SUPERVILLAIN FRIENDS - (inspired by Super friends) where the boys meet Todd. Who has asthma and needs an inhaler to breathe. He is also a troublemaker. And likes doing graffiti and stealing things (although he steals out of extreme poverty). The RRB become friends with Todd after almost killing him. Because he had asthma attack and Boomer refused to give back his inhaler until they realize that he was serious and really needed that inhaler. They become friends, Todd teaches them how to play tag and gave him a home from his home town. Slugsville.

SLUGSVILLE- Slugsville is a small town of poverty. Filled with outcasts, Drug addicts, violence and sorta like the "The hood" of Townsville. It's where Todd is lives. He's family is very poor, everyone in the town is poor. But they are all good ppl with their own flaws. (And they will eventually find a home and someone who cares about there)

Also, Unlike Townsville citizens who tend to be pretty useless, Slugsville citizens fight along side with RRB despite the odds. They defend their hometown and the boys. And is sometimes very reckless. But they work together. (Both Todd and Brick are leaders).

BAXTER-One of the kids in slugsville is name Baxter, And He likes to build stuff and weapons out junk he finds in the junkyard. And desperately wants to be part of the RRB. (Baxter is the princess of the RRB, Where Princess Morebucks could pay people to build her stuff. Baxter as a kid who grow up with no money, Can only build his inventions with things that he already have from the junkyard.)

Similar to Blossom vs Morebucks, it's Brick is Baxter, Although Baxter's defeat was more brutal. At some point Baxter, Started his own group called the junkyard kids. With his friend in slugsville, Only, For Brick to takeover the group and call himself king.

He also is a bit of people pleaser and admires Brick alot despite him being jerk. Brick most of the time tell him if they can use his inventions, He could join the RRB. (But Brick allowed him to join despite all that).

BUTCHERCRUSH - Butch gets a crush on Sedusa, and Sedusa uses this into her advantage. (It's like Buttercrush, But the only difference is that HIM gets involved, Tells Butch that loving ppl is for sissies) And uses his experience with Sedusa as proof for why love and crushes are the worst and he shouldn't have them.Basically 🤷‍♀️

And Ace gets a Lil jealous of Butch and the attention he receives from sedusa.

HARD TRUTH- The rowdyruff boys meet Dick Hardly, who does the same as he did to the ppg. Except the Rowdyruff boys are easier targets. Since Noone cares about them or love them. So they could die and Noone know.

(Gang green gang, Todd, and Slugsville citizens to the rescue)

PRISON BREAK- The PPG use antidote X on the boys and send them to jail mainly for something minor. However, There was mix up with the paper work and the boys got sent to "DarkRidge prison" which is a prison out of Townsville. And is made for the adults. (It's where psychopaths and evil villains go). Anyway, they several ppl including the gang green gang, sedusa, femme fatal and MOJO. They can't escape because they can't use their powers. (So they have to use other ways to escape)

And this episode is where they discovered where they are made out of, Because during the escape they get cornered in a bathroom. That's when MOJO saw a toilet, smelled and declared it was Chemical X and explain to the boys this what they were made out of. The boys are a little disgusted but the gang green gang and the other criminals. Forces them to get inside the toilet of chemical x, To get their powers back and fight the guards. They succeeded.

FUTURE DILEMMA - but this just an episode for fun. The RRB split up and go their own separate ways. Fast forward to the future Brick becomes a Ruler, Butch becomes a Billionaire, and Boomer goes to school to become a doctor and works as a cashier. And is in alot of student debt.

Boomer works at a gas station as a cashier, lives in crappy small apartment, and survives out of cups noodles and is medical student. Becoming a doctor to proof his brothers wrong. That he is not as dumb as he looks. (He also occasionally visits Mojo)

But reunite with his brothers, It's Huge slap in the face.

Butch becomes a Billionaire and occasionally sends MOJO tons of money for his inventions. Travels around the world, Donates to charity, Especially to homeless kids, Since he was a homeless kid himself. And owns several Car companies.

And Brick becomes a God/King/cult leader, Created an entire country where people worshipped and praise Him. He calls his country Brickstons, And the people who worshipped are called Brickstonians. They're usually dressed in traditional clothing. Wearing Robes and jewelries. He also stole Chemical X, Giving his people powers and making strong. He also stole antidote X, Having his people (the ones who are smart) create handcuffs for Superhuman where they can't use their powers when they are arrested.

And Brick even told stories about himself (where 90% of it are lies) and it's called" The Adventures of Brick The Great" where it follows Brick the Great's Journey, as the "chosen onec, With his Brother Boomer The Lame and The Butch The Idiot. Fighting his greatest enemy of all, Blossom The Demon Witch and her sisters. Yeah Blossom is depicted as the devil in story. But he was 5 years old when he wrote that entire "origin" story.

(Blossom is also a scientist who went and study the island of Brickston. Only to get captured by Brickstonians.) (I should create an AU where Brick does become a Ruler of a country)

Anyways, That pisses Boomer off because their lives are way more interesting than his. It isn't their actual future since they go back In time and never split up.

PPG headcanons/plotbunnies townie and villain edition (non-crossover)

Mr. Green and Ms. Keane live in the same apartment complex. They meet after Keane's breakup in "Keen on Keane" when Green notices that Keane seems upset at the mail center. They start talking and--what a coincidence they both love kids!! A few episodes later Ms. Keane catches a nasty illness from amoeba-tainted oranges after "Divide and Conquer" and the only person she trusts to watch over her beloved class in "Substitute Creature" is Mr. Green. A few years later they get married and have halflings who help the new generation in Townsville stomach monster integration.

Robin's parents divorce not long after Super Friends and she blames herself because they are verbally abusive. They have split custody so Robin is only the Utoniums' neighbor every other week. She has an emo phase in middle school and cuts her hair short. Inspiration: the couple her parents were based on divorced IRL and she knows she's "an accident".

Following from previous, in high school Bubbles and Robin become girlfriends, Bubbles is the one who confesses first.

Buttercup taught Ace how to play bass during some never-made episode where the girls teach them to play instruments as part of a rehabilitation effort after Aspirations. ("If you want to meet girls, why don't you guys start a band?") The gang goes on to form a ska band with Snake on guitar, Ace on bass, Billy on drums, Arturo on trumpet (which he already knew how to play somehow) and Grubber on mic. They eventually split when Ace gets the call from Gorillaz.

Sedusa is Ms. Keane's elder sister. This is the reason Ms. Keane is more sympathetic to monsters and mutants. She doesn't have a lot of time between grading homework to keep up with supervillain activity, so she doesn't know half of what Sedusa has done. At some point they meet again and catch up, Sedusa goes low profile after "Aspirations" and leans more into civilian life. The girls don't find out the relation until after leaving Pokey Oaks Kindergarten, at Ms. Keane's wedding to Mr. Green.

Bubbles stays in touch with Wuzzy after "Roughin' It Up" and learns more about the forest and the Lumpkins clan from him. She even dates Wuzzy for a while and has a farmgirl phase, buying vegan leather cowboy boots that she wears into adulthood. This all helps her connect with and befriend Fuzzy himself, who learns to be more accepting through her. LOOK HOW CUTE THO:

Mojo Jojo ages very slowly due to his Chemical X mutation. His specific fixation on Blossom culminates in his focus shifting to either converting or dating her rather than destroying her (something he comes to understand as impossible). Even he doesn't know what he wants and has a lot of anguish over how he feels about her. Blossom's willing to be friends if he stops busting the city up, but she's never telling him that.

The Rowdyruff boys grow into manchildren and start "The Ruffcast", a manosphere podcast/youtube where they do nothing but play videogames, pump iron and complain about the Powerpuff Girls being too smart, too fat, and not feminine enough. Mitch Mitchelson gets roped in as the camera guy and occasional participant, which makes Buttercup dump him.

Princess Morbucks goes from wanting to be a Powerpuff Girl to just wanting to be a team leader. She recruits/buys her own team of girls to suit up and boss around, and this becomes a high-turnover job position for desperate people. Every other time the girls meet Princess, her lackeys are different. Daddy eventually disowns her not for being a villain but for being a tabloid magnet in college, forcing her to start over with nothing. One last ditch effort leads her to public records, and searching for any extended family to appeal to, she discovers her birth mother is Sara Bellum [A lesbian who used to be Morbucks' secretary--she loves Mayor because he's a harmless decent man who helped her escape that situation by hiring her]. Bellum takes her in, reluctantly, but she is totally immune to manipulation and sets her straight.

Ms. Bellum eventually runs for Mayor of Townsville and wins. Mayor Mayor retires to Pokey Oaks senior center. The girls visit him often and occasionally consult him for info about Townsville's history if needed--it's much easier for him to remember things from a long time ago, he's not so good with the day-to-day stuff. Bubbles volunteers there with Bullet, who opens Mayor's pickle jars when the nurses can't.

Harry Pitt running gag: Getting referenced as being in juvie and then prison, but it's never stated what he did. We know what he's in for, but the other characters never say.

THEORY TIME!!!

We all know Mike Believe, right? In his debut (and only) episode, "Imaginary Fiend", he created an imaginary friend named Patches that caused trouble at Pokey Oaks. Patches was only defeated because the Powerpuff Girls created an imaginary friend of their own to fight him.

Question #1, how did the Powerpuff Girls create their imaginary rabbit friend?

Simple...they didn't. Their friend only existed because Mike BELIEVED it. I headcanon that Mike has the ability to will things into existence, and he just isn't/wasn't aware of it yet. He believed that the girls could create an imaginary friend and stop Patches, so they did. If we take this a step further, Patches could've been created as a result of Mike's intrusive thoughts (which can be caused by stress and anxiety, and as a five year old with no friends in a new school, I'd imagine he'd have those in spades) which was why Patches was so violent and defiant in the first place.

And if we take another step forward:

This could explain why these three characters (and the unseen Tooth Fairy in "Moral Decay") exist within the PPG universe. Sure, "Imaginary Fiends" aired after "Dream Scheme" and "Boogie Frights", but who said all of the episodes aired in the order of which they occured? What if Mike was already living in Townsville and just attended a different school at the time?

And you might also ask yourselves, why does Mike just randomly have superpowers?

Newsflash! Plenty of characters exist in the PPG-sphere that have superpowers without any Chemical X:

Funny how they all have the same color scheme, might mess around and headcanon that they're all related, idk 😏😉

Idk, I just think this could really make Mike a more interesting character.

I just read your reasoning, and I totally understand. Madoc used to be my fav character at the start of the book, since he was a good dad and wanted the best for his children.

And Dain was introduced to the story. Became my fav character and we all know what happened at the coronation :')

dain greenbriar analysis! not that u asked but i did one of madoc so i’ll do one of dain since he’s super complex

i really liked dain too! he was totally mysterious, which was later revealed that he was more so manipulative and cunning. balekin says that dain is “surprisingly unsentimental” which is shocking coming from balekin of all ppl. since balekin believes it to be true, then imagine like a 10x worse version of balekin. we know dain is very smart, he is charming and manipulative, which are all qualities that balekin do not quite possess. (as seen in the lament of lutie loo)

dain truly did not play around when it came to things in the way of his coming into power. which shouldn’t come as a surprise since we know that dain was slowly poisoning eldred to make him weak and make him resign from being king. then obv what he did to the woman he sent love poems to (liriope) whom he poisoned alongside the fetus in her womb. all that just to assure his succession to the throne.

not to mention how he played poor 5ish yr old cardan. dude was beefing w a toddler! which again, he uses his elder brother charm to do, and his manipulative hand to persuade eldred to kick cardan out and cast asha out. (which makes me wonder if he had a personal grudge or something against asha ((maybe something she knew that he didn’t want eldred to know)) or if he was simply just killing 2 birds w one stone)

it’s fascinating to me that he killed liri despite caring for her sm. why do i think he cared for liri at all? because he was at a great risk to dally and play around with one of his fathers lovers/consorts. for someone who is so notoriously careful, he must’ve really grown to care for her, the same way nicasia came to care for locke!! ( i ADORE the parallels in lockes and his mothers relationships!)

edit: it’s revealed that he actually loved her in tsh, but he just loved power more. sad

but maybe dain caught on to her gancanagh/ love/charm speaking powers and was displeased enough to not really gaf when he administered poison to her and oakey.

while dain is a giant asshole, he really fascinated me. his actions at first were charming and humble, and from jude’s perspective, almost kind, and even someone she could look up to. but after jude fell out of favor with him, he was cold, cruel and calculating.

he even managed to skillfully manipulate his own spies into liking him, seeing as the ghost still served dain after his death by betraying jude (which wasn’t his fault). the roach and the bomb didn’t know of dains poisoning of liri, and even jude wasn’t allowed in on some of the spy work she was doing for dain.

and ofc when jude delivers the paper that says, “i know the provenance of blusher mushroom” dain, who is put on the spot, skillfully manipulates his spies yet again by claiming that “he”(could be any faerie that goes by “he” btw) was blackmailing orlagh.

furthermore, he says about balekin.

“he and i never got along. and yet i had hoped ….” purposefully not finishing his sentence so as to not reveal to his spies how truly unfeeling he was about his elder brother, balekin.

i wonder a lot of his plans for jude, i saw a theory that he was going to arrange jude in a marriage, and i have a few small ones of my own, but it’s super intriguing that he chose jude, the daughter of the very influential grand general (the man to stole half of the high kings army in twk lol) to use as a spy. makes me wonder what his plans were for madoc and for jude if madoc ever found out. because surely, as careful as he is, he would’ve had one.

ANYWAY sorry i kinda went on a tangent there but he’s such a cool character and while i def do not agree w his actions, i almost wish he stayed alive longer to be a more significant villain, but i am SO glad we got cute oakey pokey as a cute less evil replacement! and also more insights of what oak thinks of him in tpt and tsh!

holly black, despite dain and several other characters have short amounts of page time, managed to make dain such a great subtle villain! which is why i love her work so much. she slides in and incorporates little damning facts and details that could mean nothing, but could also have great significance!

lastly, i rly like doing character analyses so feel free to add on or send me characters or questions thru the ask thingy!!
