Dracudate (2021) [4 min] by Rhael Mcgregor | Canada

[dedalvs]

Hello! High Valyrian related, I'm wondering about name etymologies. You've mentioned the Aegon=Aegion (iron) connection and peppering in etymology (so cool). I was scrolling through the glyphtionary and I was wondering if these finds were meaningful or if I was just seeing patterns where there were none.

Nae (Naerys): breast

Rhaen (Rhaena, Rhaenyra): discover, find, know

Rhael (Rhaella, Rhaelle): love, cherish

Bael (Baelor, Baelon, Baela): help, aid

Jae: (Jaehaerys, Jaehaera): god, goddess, deity

Lae (Laena, Laenor): eyes, see

Dae (Daenerys, Daeron): freedom, liberty

Am I wearing tinfoil? Regardless, your work on this series is enlightening and so engaging for fans!! Thank you!!

Most of them yes, some of them no. The h is important in Rhaella, etc. and then the final consonants are likewise important. That is, you can't lose the r of Naerys and Daeron, or the n of Laenor and Daenerys. The connection for Jaehaerys, et al. works because the root for *jaes* is actually *jaeh-* (hence, the nominative singular is *jaes*, but the genitive is *jaeho*). So yes, spot on there. I've tried to work out etymologies for all of them, though there are some I may have missed. I'll get to them all eventually.

New Releases - Week of August 27, 2024

We've found eight different new releases to shout about this week. Are any of them on your TBR? 

Bridge Across the Sky by Freeman Ng Atheneum Books for Young Readers

A raw and honest historical novel in verse about a Chinese teen who immigrates to the United States with his family and endures mistreatment at the Angel Island Immigration Station while trying to navigate his own course in a new world.

Tai Go and his family have crossed an ocean wider than a thousand rivers, joining countless other Chinese immigrants in search of a better life in the United States. Instead, they’re met with hostility and racism. Empowered by the Chinese Exclusion Act, the government detains the immigrants on Angel Island in the San Francisco Bay while evaluating their claims.

Held there indefinitely, Tai Go experiences the prison-like conditions, humiliating medical exams, and interrogations designed to trick detainees into failure. Yet amid the anger and sorrow, Tai Go also finds hope—in the poems carved into the walls of the barracks by others who have been detained there, in the actions of a group of fellow detainees who are ready to fight for their rights, in the friends he makes, and in a perceived enemy whose otherness he must come to terms with.

Unhappy at first with his father’s decision to come to the United States, Tai Go must overcome the racism he discovers in both others and himself and forge his own version of the American Dream.

The Sticky Note Manifesto of Aisha Agarwal by Ambika Vohra Quill Tree Books, Harper Collins

“How have you gotten out of your comfort zone?”

That’s the Stanford admissions prompt that valedictorian shoo-in Aisha Agarwal can’t answer. Her life’s been homework and junk food. So, when her crush, Brian, asks her to winter formal, Aisha thinks her fate is changing . . .

. . . until Brian stands her up.

As if on cue, a banged-up Volkswagen arrives outside the dance; the driver profusely apologizing for being late to pick her up. Does Aisha know him or what he’s talking about? No. Does the Stanford essay convince her to take him up on the ride? Absolutely.

To Aisha’s relief, seventeen-year-old Quentin Santos isn’t a kidnapper, but he is failing math. They strike a deal: if Aisha helps Quentin pass math, he’ll help push her out of her comfort zone, using a series of sticky note to-do’s—dares—that will not only give Aisha content for her essay, but will turn her into the confident person she’s always wanted to be.

From New Year’s Eve kisses to high school parties, Aisha’s sticky note manifesto is taking off. But when she falls for the wrong guy, hurts her best friend, and still can’t finish her essay, victory feels far from reach.

Is winning worth it if you end up losing yourself in the process?

Twin Flames by Olivia Abtahi Lee & Low Books

When djinn start to show up in twins Leila and Bianca’s small Virginia hometown, the only way they and their families will survive will be if the twins can get past their differences and start to act like sisters again.

Twins Bianca and Leila could not be more different from each other. Being both Argentinian and Iranian in a small town has always been hard, but with Leila shunning her heritage and Bianca embracing it, the two walk very different paths. They run in different circles of friends, and barely talk anymore. Leila’s a homebody who loves to craft and plans on marrying her high school sweetheart. Bianca’s more anti-establishment and plans to get out of Dodge as soon as humanly possible.

But on their eighteenth birthday, the neighbor’s barn is burned down–and it doesn’t seem to have been caused by anything normal like an electrical or fuel source. When Leila encounters a mysterious monster arising from the fire, suddenly she gains strange powers–and can no longer touch iron or even eat foods with high iron content.

What are these creatures and where are they coming from? What do they want with Leila–or other people in town, for that matter? Can the twins learn to rely on each other–and their cultures–to banish them? It’ll take a sisterly reconciliation for the girls to find out and to save their hometown in this New Visions Award-winning fantasy adventure.

Everything We Never Had by Randy Ribay Kokila

From the author of the National Book Award finalist Patron Saints of Nothing comes an emotionally charged, moving novel about four generations of Filipino American boys grappling with identity, masculinity, and their fraught father-son relationships.

Watsonville, 1930. Francisco Maghabol barely ekes out a living in the fields of California. As he spends what little money he earns at dance halls and faces increasing violence from white men in town, Francisco wonders if he should’ve never left the Philippines.

Stockton, 1965. Between school days full of prejudice from white students and teachers and night shifts working at his aunt’s restaurant, Emil refuses to follow in the footsteps of his labor organizer father, Francisco. He’s going to make it in this country no matter what or who he has to leave behind.

Denver, 1983. Chris is determined to prove that his overbearing father, Emil, can’t control him. However, when a missed assignment on “ancestral history” sends Chris off the football team and into the library, he discovers a desire to know more about Filipino history―even if his father dismisses his interest as unamerican and unimportant.

Philadelphia, 2020. Enzo struggles to keep his anxiety in check as a global pandemic breaks out and his abrasive grandfather moves in. While tensions are high between his dad and his lolo, Enzo’s daily walks with Lolo Emil have him wondering if maybe he can help bridge their decades-long rift.

Told in multiple perspectives, Everything We Never Had unfolds like a beautifully crafted nesting doll, where each Maghabol boy forges his own path amid heavy family and societal expectations, passing down his flaws, values, and virtues to the next generation, until it’s up to Enzo to see how he can braid all these strands and men together.

Our Shouts Echo by Jade Adia Disney-Hyperion

Survival Tip #1: The world is going to shit. Whatever you do, trust no one.

Sixteen-year old Niarah Holloway’s only goal in life is to get through it unnoticed. That, and to spend her first summer in LA building a doomsday bunker in her backyard. Because if the past few years have taught Niarah anything, it’s that the ocean levels are rising, minimum wage is a scam, and the people who are supposed to protect you will hurt you. Now the only thing that helps Niarah stay afloat amidst the constant waves of anxiety and dread that threaten to drag her under is her new mantra: Be prepared.

But Niarah wasn’t prepared for Mac Torres. Not for his disarmingly cute face, or for his surfer lifestyle, or for the way his smile resuscitates her heart. Mac is a bomb that blows Niarah’s world to pieces, but instead of disaster, he fills it with sunset bonfires, breakfast burritos, and new friends.

For years, Niarah’s life has revolved around ignoring the demons of her past, avoiding the problems of her present, and preparing for the catastrophes of the future. Now Mac—with his sunshine laugh and infectious optimism— is determined to show her another way to be. But in a world where the worst feels inevitable, can one summer be enough to light the way to a hopeful future? Can one summer be enough to fall in love?

With Love, Echo Park by Laura Taylor Namey Atheneum

Seventeen-year-old Clary is set to inherit her family’s florist shop, La Rosa Blanca—one of the last remnants of the Cuban business district that once thrived in Los Angeles’s Echo Park neighborhood. Clary knows Echo Park is where she’ll leave a legacy, and nothing is more important to her than keeping the area’s unique history alive.

Besides Clary’s florist shop, there’s only one other business left founded by Cuban immigrants fleeing Castro’s regime in the sixties and seventies. And Emilio, who’s supposed to take over Avalos Bicycle Works one day, is more flight risk than dependable successor. While others might find Emilio appealing, Clary can see him itching to leave now that he’s graduated, and she’ll never be charmed by a guy who doesn’t care if one more Echo Park business fades away.

But then Clary is caught off guard when an unexpected visitor delivers a shocking message from someone she thought she’d left behind. Meanwhile, Emilio realizes leaving home won’t be so easy—and Clary, who has always been next door, is who he confides in. As the summer days unfold, they find there’s something stronger than local history tying them together.

Libertad by Bessie Flores Zaldivar Dial Books

A queer YA coming-of-age set during the rigged Honduran presidential election, about a young poet discovering the courage it takes to speak her truth about the people and country she loves.

As the contentious 2017 presidential election looms and protests rage across every corner of the city, life in Tegucigalpa, Honduras churns louder and faster. For her part, high school senior Libertad (Libi) Morazán takes heart in writing political poetry for her anonymous Instagram account and a budding romance someone new. But things come to a head when Mami sees texts on her phone mentioning a kiss with a girl and Libi discovers her beloved older brother, Maynor, playing a major role in the protests. As Libertad faces the political and social corruption around her, stifling homophobia at home and school, and ramped up threats to her poetry online, she begins dreaming of a future in which she doesn’t have to hide who she is or worry about someone she loves losing their life just for speaking up. Then the ultimate tragedy strikes, and leaving her family and friends—plus the only home she’s ever known—might be her only option.

It’s gonna be sad and dark.

When Modern Reader was “trapped” in Kings Landing, she had no choice but to please Yandere Dark Rhaella. After “great time” Modern Reader looked at mirror and she saw herself covered with bruises and bite marks, one of the bite marks was bleeding, because Yandere Rhaella bitten Reader’s shoulder to hard 🩸When she touched her shoulder it hurt and she started to cry again. Modern Reader wasn’t safe in Kings Landing especially at night, because Yandere Dark Rhaella was visiting her.

Modern Reader is sleeping, then all of a sudden she feels someone is on top of her. She opens her eyes and it’s Rhaella, who’s holding Reader’s hands down. Yandere Dark Rhaella was always rough with Modern Reader, but she could be gentle with her. When the process happens again, Modern Reader has no choice but to let The Queen do what she wants.

Yandere Dark Rhaella kisses Modern Reader in the lips, then she kisses her neck and leaves bite marks, at the same time fucking Modern Reader, “Such a good girl.”- Yandere Rhaella said, while fucking her, one hand holds Reader’s hand on top of her head and the other hand caress Reader’s body, leaving marks on her body. Meanwhile Modern Reader looks at the wall on her left and tears coming out of her eyes. Although Yandere Dark Rhaella doesn’t like when her Sweet girl doesn’t look at her, so The Queen slapped Reader’s face, leaving a scratch on her cheek. Modern Reader is shocked and now she’s scared of The Queen even more. Then Rhaella harshly grabs Modern Reader by her chin and her nails dig into the skin. “Naughty girl, did I tell you to look away?”-Yandere Rhaella asked with a scary tone and a look on her eyes. “N-no, my Queen.”- answers Reader.

Yandere Dark Rhaella: Do you want me to punish you? Is that what you want? Do you want me to be angry?👿😈

Yandere Dark Rhaella pulls out her dagger 🗡️

Modern Reader with more tears in her eyes and shakes in fear : No, my Queen. Please d-don’t, d-don’t punish me, please. I’ll be good, I’ll be a good girl. I will, I will, I-I do what you want. I’ll do what you want, please don’t. I’ll be a good girl.😰

Yandere Dark Rhaella shushes Modern Reader and leaves a few marks with dagger. “Hmm, you’ll do what I want?”- The Queen asks, licking the blood from dagger. Modern Reader answers “Yes, yes, my Queen. I will.” Satisfied with answer Yandere Dark Rhaella gets off of Modern Reader. Modern Reader thinks this is the end, that this nightmare is over, but to her horror Rhaella called her, and she gets up from her bed (which is hurting her). Yandere Dark Rhaella sits on the chair and looks at her Sweet girl: Modern Reader’s chest is covered with bites and a few blood lines, her neck is covered with bruises, her cheek has a scratch and blood covers her thighs and down the legs (lose of virginity by force), not to mention the bottom of her nightgown is ruined and tears in her eyes. Yandere Dark Rhaella commands Reader with one hand to get closer. Modern Reader obeys. Then Yandere Dark Rhaella lifts her nightgown “Kneel.”- she says. Modern Reader kneels and realise what will happen next. Yandere Rhaella caresses Reader’s hair with such gentleness “Be a good girl and please me.”- then she pushes Modern Reader’s head to her pussy. Modern Reader has no choice but to suck it and to please The Queen. Meanwhile Yandere Dark Rhaella enjoys it, she moans quietly, tilting her head back in pleasure, she craved for a long time. The Queen says how Lannisters always pay their debts which is humiliating for Reader. She’s accepted into the powerful family, into Lannister house. Modern Reader thinks how would they (Yandere platonic Tywin, Joanna, Cersei and Jaime and Tyrion) react to see her like this. Modern Reader feels so much shame on herself that she doesn’t notice that The Queen has come on her tongue.

Yandere Rhaella: Lick it up. Lick it up, Sweet girl, and swallow it.

Modern Reader obeys and more tears coming out of her eyes. After that Yandere Dark Rhaella kisses Reader on her forehead, stands up and she gives a glass of water to Reader, not before aiding something for her to sleep. The Queen grabs Reader’s chin gently and pours water down her throat, staring lovingly and adoring this obedience. Then Modern Reader falls asleep, falling into the Queen’s arms “You did so good, my love.”- the last thing she hears, before she fell asleep.

The next day Modern Reader wakes up from her sleep. She’s noticed that she’s covered with bandages and she noticed clean sheets and the nightgown she is wearing. Oh, poor Modern Reader, she wants nothing more but to come back home, to her family. She wants to be held and comforted by her mother Joanna, she wants to be protected by her father Tywin and she wants to see her siblings Cersei, Jaime and Tyrion. She wants to come back home so much 🥺😥😖😭

I really want to strangle this woman.😠 Poor reader.🥺 The reader just wants to go home and live happily with her family.

[atopvisenyashill]

Something came to me while reading your PactOfIcen'Fire meta, did someone thought to compare Jace and Sara to Rhaegar and Lyanna? I haven't read many things about Jace and Sara tbh so if they did I'm sorry for repeating it 😅

And not only that but i couldn't ignore but note that Serena and Edric..don't we have an Edric in the main books who's a bastard? I think is intentional to have named him like the Edric Storm in the main series

I'm so sorry anon, I meant to answer this like a straight month ago but tumblr glitched and didn't post it and I didn't even realize :((((

ANYWAYS. I have seen people compare them in the past wrt the pact, yes! there’s two comparisons here that are made between the two couples. there's the argument that jon himself fulfills the pact because he’s the son of a targaryen prince (rhaegar/jacaerys) and a stark daughter (lyanna/sara), and I’ve seen people refer to jace/sara as a proto rhael/ya. then there's the other comparison, where it's pointed out the pact is about a targaryen fostering at winterfell, not just wedding a stark. if you search “rhaegar pact” or "jacaerys lyanna" (search, not a specific tag, fyi) you’ll get all sorts of fun thoughts, but some of my faves are stumpy and starkcontrasts.

I do think there's a lot of parallels and anti parallels between the two couples, and I think those parallels are mmeant to catch our attention while the anti parallels are meant to make us think a little deeper about the context surrounding both couples. I'm bulletting this because it helps me organize my thoughts more clearly.

Similarities between Jacaerys/Sara and Rhaegar/Lyanna:

both couples expect to have a daughter - he daughter of Jacaerys and Sara was supposed to marry Edric Stark in order to tie the houses together, and Rhaegar expected Lyanna to have a daughter not a son (Visenya Snow truthers rise)

a kind of, "oh those crazy kids" vibe from both couples - Rhaegar and Jacaerys both spurning another woman (Elia/Baela) for a Stark maiden and eloping with her

Rhaegar and Jacaerys have minimal input in the wars they are involved in- Jacaerys because he dies early on and Rhaegar because he spends most of the war holed up at the Tower of Joy

Lyanna and Jacaerys are around the same age when their lives get upended - both are only 16 when they die. Very notable to me that Jon Snow is also only 16 when he "dies" in ADWD

Both Baela and Elia are quite beloved by their Houses. You could write pages of meta about Elia's effect on the plot and meanwhile Baela is her father's favorite, one of the last dragon riders, one of the only dragon riders to hit the ground with her dragon and live to tell the story (even if Aegon hadn't been murdered, it seems likely his injuries would have eventually killed him. man is fucked up by his burns and legs, whereas Baela recovers comparitively quickly), marries the heir to House Velaryon, and remains a staple at her half brothers courts for a very long time. AND both women experience infidelity in their marriages - not just the Jacaerys/Sara thing, but Alyn's affairs!

Mysteries surrounding the endings of these relationships - there's the obvious r+l=j thing and the fact that no one knows what the hell Rhaegar was up to during most of the war, but there's also the mystery surrounding Vermax laying a clutch of dragon eggs in the crypts of Winterfell and the baby metaphor here that Jacaerys stays long enough to leave a "child" with Sara just as Rhaegar stays long enough to leave a child with Lyanna.

Differences between Jacaerys/Sara and Rhaegar/Lyanna

the JS daughter is meant to solidify an alliance between the Targaryens/Iron Throne and the Starks/North, while Rhaegar is not interested in making an alliance, he is interested in his prophecy and his third head of the dragon

I think it's very relevant here that Jon is the same age as his mother and Jacaerys in ADWD - this is, imo, the key here that Jon does not fulfill the pact with his birth, but will be involved in the pact himself

Jacaerys and Baela are not actually married when he elopes with Sara Snow, while Rhaegar is not just married but has children with Elia

Mysterious surrounding the ending of the relationships - this goes in differences too because there is in fact a difference between an egg and a literal baby, lmao. This seems to me a pretty clear r+l=j hint, that jacaerys/vermax leaves a ~secret dragon~ with the starks, and jon is a secret dragon that Ned brings to Winterfell

What the hell does all of this mean? Well, I mean, your guess is as good as mine anon, lmao, but EYE think JS is meant to be another r+l=j hint, possibly a hint about the ultimate fate of dany's three dragons (don't ask me what, i have no idea), and an indicator for what jon's ultimate fate is - not as another Jacaerys/Rhaegar parallel but instead serving as the stand in for Jacaerys and Sara's daughter, who fosters at Winterfell and marries the Stark Heir.

Now to the second part!! Edric is a fairly common name but I have always wondered about comparisons between Edric’s so you’re not alone there!! I had originally wondered if Edric Storm and Edric Dayne had perhaps been meant to interact at some point and have larger roles, bc both touch on legitimacy issues (little Ned Dayne repeats the Wylla lie to Arya) and they both feel kinda set up to have had bigger story lines and are relatively isolated at the end of asos the way the starks are (to let them age). There’s actually lots of theories about little Ned Dayne specifically and his relationship with Arya, Ashara, and how he’s connected to the Tower of Joy storyline, and his connection to all that, plus his name connection to Edric Storm AND Serena's Edrics IS a fun one. It could mean nothing predictions wise, just George writing on a pattern. I recommend this meta here for some Targaryen naming patterns and how Rhaegar fits into all the typically feminine Rhae names. I think this is something similar to that - if an Edric shows up, it means the succession is about to involve a lot of bastards and usurpation and mystery!

Here's a clip of the Stark Family Tree, for the visual learners:

The main weird thing about this part of the timeline (besides Rickon's daughters being usurped, #JusticeForSansaAndSerena) is The Edric Of It All. Rickon dies before Cregan, and instead of Winterfell passing to Sansa, it passes to the next son, Jonnel (exactly the way the Aemon, Rhaenys, and Baelon situation goes). But when Jonnel dies without issue, Winterfell skips over Edric and Serena's children, because Edric died before Jonnel, and goes straight to Barthogan, then Brandon and his son Rodwell. This despite the fact that Serena and Edric have two sons of their own: Cregard and Torrhen (and aren't those some incredibly pointed names, just like Aemon naming Rhaenys after a conqueror!). I think when Sansa died, and then Jonnel remarried, Jonnel likely considered Edric his heir. I think what happens here is that Jonnel justifies his usurption by saying that since Rickon died before Cregan, his line should just be skipped entirely and go to the back of succession, and that all the living sons of Cregan should come first. But when Edric dies, Jonnel & probably Barthogan use this justification again by saying that since Edric is dead, his whole line goes to the end, and it goes to the next son, Barthogan. Maybe they even felt a bit guilty about skipping Cregard and Torrhen but they have to stick with this justification in order to keep their own place in the succession ahead of Sansa and Serena, the same way Viserys would never straight up say "the GC was wrong" because it would put his own claim at risk, or the way Aegon III is never able to change the line to say he descends from Rhaenyra because it would piss off the greens. So you have, in a strange way, Edric being usurped by his own brothers, just as Sansa and Serena are usurped (and maybe forcibly married) by their own uncles.

What's even more fun here, in addition to all the nonsense surrounding succession, a JS couple, and an Edric is that like I said, we have Edric Storm tied to legitimacy, Edric Dayne tied to the Tower of Joy plot, and...Edric Stark's brother, Brandon, the child of Lynara Stark who finally has kids who inherit, has a bastard of his own, Lonnel Snow! Just a coincidence, and George writing on a pattern? Again, yeah, maybe, probably, but there is some chatter regarding both Lonnel and Edric's possible descendants including that perhaps House Cassel is a descendants house of one of the two. idk but it's interesting!!

Vea’s Beginnings 1

Silence fell in an almost deafening roar. Her ears flattened against the top of her head, eyes closed with face towards the ground, and hands stinging, the wood rough beneath. A bucket lay useless next to her, cracked after soaring through the air. Newly splashed water dripped below the planks of the landing. No one moved.

“Get up. You’re embarrassing yourself.” The young male voice sounded, she could hear the smirk.

Vea glared at the ground but hauled herself up, brushing her clothes off. She briefly took note of the pain in her knees, blood welling from the cuts. She kept her eyes downcast, preferring this encounter to be over sooner.

“I’m sorry Rhael…I was clumsy. It won’t happen again.” Vea gritted her teeth, yet remained calm. She hated this, wanted to rage and tell him to shove it. But she couldn’t. She was defective, small and weak. The lowest rung on the social ladder.

Rhael walked in front of her, staring intently. “Get lost.” Vea wasted no time and dashed the opposite way.

Tears stung her eyes. She couldn’t take much more of this.

There was a boob/cleavage meme going around a while ago so I decided to do some pinups of Rhael, a fairly new OC of mine I deeply adore.

Title: Indiginerds: Tales from Modern Indigenous Life Editor: Alina Pete Genres: Contemporary, Anthology, Graphic Novel Pages: 120 Publisher: Iron Circus Comics Review Copy: Contributed to fundraiser Availability: Available now

Summary: First Nations culture is living, vibrant, and evolving, and generations of Indigenous kids have grown up with pop culture creeping inexorably into our lives. From gaming to social media, pirate radio to garage bands, Star Trek to D&D, and missed connections at the pow wow, Indigenous culture is so much more than how it’s usually portrayed. INDIGNERDS is here to celebrate those stories! Featuring an all-Indigenous creative team, INDIGNERDS is an exhilarating anthology collecting 11 stories about Indigenous people balancing traditional ways of knowing with modern pop culture. Includes work by ALINA PETE, PJ UNDERWOOD, KAMERON WHITE, RHAEL MCGREGOR, and many more!

Review: [Note: Some of the stories in Indiginerds reference heavier topics, such as domestic violence and bullying, though not in great depth.]

Indiginerds is a graphic novel anthology about modern and nerdy Indigenous life. This anthology was obviously curated with a great deal of thought and care, and I really appreciated the breadth of the stories told in these pages. There were some nerdy staples I expected, like D&D and Star Trek, but there were several areas that surprised me, like pirate radio stations and local music scenes, neither of which I have engaged with much if at all. It was fun to see glimpses of these other pop culture communities I know little about. The anthology featured a couple of autobiographical pieces, too, which were a delight to read.

Like any anthology, readers will find some stories that resonate with them more than others. I was particularly fond of “Missed Pow Wow Connection” by Kameron White, “Dorvan V” by Alina Pete, and “Welei (I Am Fine)” by Bianca "binkz17" Martin and Rhael McGregor. But even the stories that I didn’t connect with as strongly, I appreciated the artistry that went into making them and the variety they added to the anthology as a whole. I was especially happy to see the diversity in how people were depicted across the board (e.g., cultures, body type, skin color, hair texture/style, clothing, etc.). Overall, anthology did a wonderful job of showcasing Indigenous people engaging with pop culture and telling their own stories.

Recommendation: Get it soon if you’re looking to expand your graphic novel collection. This anthology features a variety of stories about Indigenous people engaging with modern pop culture and forging spaces for themselves. This would be a fun addition to any school or classroom library.
