Forgotten Celebrations

The moment the sun had risen, so had Lyssa. It was too wonderful a day to waste in bed any longer than she needed to. There was far too much to do! She hopped out of bed, quickly managing to get her dress on and her hair tied back. She nearly ran out the door of her room, but held back at the last moment. She pressed her ear to the door, listening intently to make sure she didn't hear anything on the other side. She slowly pushed the door open, testing that it wasn't locked. Her mother never locked the door to her room unless it was something serious. If the door didn't open, she was not to force it. For her own safety because that meant the king was there.

She hated that rule, because often her safety meant that her mother's was compromised.

But she had promised her mother she would listen to her and abide by that rule. There weren't many rules, so she did her best to be a good daughter and listen to the ones she was given.

This time though, the door opened easily.

She pushed it open slowly, mindful of the small creak noise that sounded whenever the door opened too quickly. She bit back a grin when she was able to push it open far enough to sneak out of it. She began to push the door back just as slowly and silently, until it had shut completely. She turned, her back pressed to the door, and looked out at the room on the other side of her own. It was a large bedroom, her mother's bedchambers to be specific, the ones the King had given her when she'd become queen.

She crept on her tip toes over to the bed, seeing her mother sleeping, curled up on her side, a pillow in her arms. She waited a moment, checking that the woman was breathing evenly and deeply, still asleep, and grinned. Regina was soundly out. She let out a little breath and moved as quickly and carefully as she could over to the main doors. She pulled it open, wincing slightly when it still creaked. She had hoped opening it as slowly as possible would avoid the noise, but she stopped as soon as it began. The door wasn't open enough for her to sneak past though. She bit her lip, glancing back at her mother, and to the door once more, before yanking it open the rest of the way. The squeak was loud, but fast, and when she looked over at the bed, Regina still seemed to be asleep.

She let out another relieved breath and turned to the door, closing it behind her as she stepped into the hall. Ironically the door didn't creak when it was being shut. Of course.

She hurried down the hall, fearful that the noise of the creak might spark her mother waking up sometime soon. She paused when she neared the end, where the guards were stationed, and listened intently. Over the last few years that the men had been positioned there, it was clear it was pointless. No one came down this hall but Snow White or the King, or her…though she tried to make sure they saw her as little as possible. The times they saw her leave Regina's room and enter it, they would eventually get suspicious of her being there. Luckily, after so long in their position and with next to no one attempting to visit the Queen, they had grown lax in their duties, comfortable.

She hated to think that it was also to do with Regina being King Leopold's second wife and 'not as important' as the first, she'd heard some of the servants whisper. They didn't care quite as much about protecting Regina as they would have if it were Queen Eva, and they feared punishment less, for it would be a lesser punishment, if something happened to her.

Right now, both guards were resting back against either side of the wall that led to the hall, asleep. One was even snoring slightly.

She shook her head at them, but crept on, tiptoeing fast down the hall and past them, breaking out into a run once she was far enough away. She had to be fast, she couldn't risk being too long or there was a chance that the guards would be awake when she returned. And while they might just think she was a random servant bringing something to the queen, she'd rather avoid that. One always had to accompany her to Regina's quarters in that case and Regina was uncomfortable enough allowing others near her room. If she could avoid it, she would.

She hurried down stairs, around corners, across halls, till she nearly ran through another door, skidding to a halt just within and narrowly avoiding a woman with a large plate of dough in her hands.

"Sorry!" she called to the woman, ducking under the plate and continuing to maneuver herself across the busy kitchen and over to one of the cooks who didn't seem irritated to see her in the mornings, "Hello!"

"Why hello, little one," the elderly woman smiled at her, "Here for the Queen's meal? What shall it be today?"

"Apples!" Lyssa cheered, "Something with apples!"

The woman hummed, "I've got just the thing," she turned to a plate that was covered with a small towel, pinching the fabric and lifting it to reveal a set of three fair sized tarts with apple slices set up in a simple pattern, with a nice glaze over it. It wasn't anything fancy, but it also wasn't anything unexpected.

It was known in the kitchens that the Queen had a fondness for apples. She was a woman, though, that didn't demand treats or special meals based on her preferences. Every once in a while she might ask for something specific. Every once in a while, when Lyssa would come to collect her meals, she might ask for something specific.

If someone was to pay attention to the days when one or the other asked for special food, it was easy to guess what to make when the days came back around. This was one of them.

She didn't know what was so special about it, but Lyssa tended to ask for apples.

And if it was for the Queen, she didn't ask questions.

Lyssa leaned in closer to peer at it, inwardly pleased that she was tall enough this year to see the top of the counter without needing to be on her toes. Her mother said she was growing like a weed.

"It's still warm!" she noted, seeing faint steam drifting up from the tarts.

"Best get it to the Queen then," the kind woman winked at her, lifting the plate to hand it to her, "Go on."

"Thank you!" she called to the woman, before hurrying out of the kitchens and back the way she'd come. She peered around the corner near Regina's wing of the castle, making sure the guards were still asleep before dashing past them, hoping the smell of the warm apples wouldn't wake them. She made her way to Regina's room, pushing the door open once more, not caring quite so much about the squeak or noise she made as she shut the door again. She hurried over to the bed, setting the plate on a small side table and carefully picking one tart up. She moved it near Regina's nose, letting her sniff it and slowly wake herself at the scent of it.

Lyssa bit her lip to keep from giggling when Regina's eyes began to flutter open moments after she scrunched her nose.

"Lys?" Regina murmured, blinking a bit, "What…"

"Happy birthday, mama!" Lyssa couldn't hold back her excitement any longer. She wanted to be the first one to wish Regina a happy birthday.

Regina smiled at that, "What a thoughtful gift," she laughed, moving to push herself to sit on the bed, her back to the headboard as Lyssa offered her the tart and reached to hold the plate with the rest of them for her mother.

"I wanted you to have an extra special start!" Lyssa cheered.

"Every morning I wake up to my daughter smiling is always a special start," Regina told her, only halfway through her tart, "I don't know how I'm going to finish all these…" she trailed off with a playful-thoughtful look on her face, "Have one?" she offered Lyssa.

"Mama, it's YOUR food," Lyssa insisted.

"And it's my birthday," she reminded the girl, "If I want to share a tart with my daughter after she went through all this trouble to surprise me, I will."

Lyssa laughed when Regina turned her nose up in jest, but reached out to take one of the tarts, trying one herself and humming at how tasty it was. She giggled more when Regina got to the last one and broke it in half, giving her a part of that one too.

"Did you like it, mama?" she asked once they had both polished off the treats.

"It was delicious, Lys," she reached out to the girl she saw as a daughter and pulled her into her arms, resting the two of them back against the headboard, "Thank you for thinking of it."

"You love apples," Lyssa said simply.

Regina smiled, "You know what else I love?"

"Horsies!"

Regina laughed, and had to nod at that, "I love cuddling with my Little Fox!" she called, tickling Lyssa as the girl giggled before the two of them settled down, just lying on the bed to rest more.

"I love you too, mama," Lyssa murmured, causing Regina to smile.

All in all, Lyssa would count the day having a very good start.

~8~

Lyssa did her very best to keep to the shadows of the castle as much as possible, trying to be as inconspicuous as possible as she hurried around the corners. She had lived in the castle only a few years, but she knew every hall, every nook, and every small servants' passage to be found. She knew which tapestries to hide behind, which doors were not to be opened, which halls were mostly disused. There were times when her mother was expected to tend to Snow White or Leopold during outings or events, times she was busy. During those times she would explore the castle. There were less guards on the alert as they were guarding the king.

She was sure she could make her way through the castle with relative confidence to not be caught. And if she ever was, she was to do exactly as Regina had told her and cry, telling the guards she got lost looking for her mother. They would assume she was a servant and return her to the servants' quarters and she knew how to make it back to her mother's rooms from there.

Right now she had a mission to see to, to make sure her mother's birthday was going to be a good one. Her mother hadn't seemed as happy as she could remember her being during her last few birthdays. She knew a large part of it was that Daniel wasn't there. She remembered one, just a short while before Cora had struck, the happiest she could remember Regina ever being. Ever since then, without Daniel, Regina smiled, and she was happy sometimes, but never that much.

So she always tried to make her mother's special days the happiest she could. She hadn't been old enough to do much the last few years, but now she could. She was a big girl, finally, she could help!

She made her way over to the large doors in the middle of the castle, the ones that led to the ballroom. Oh she couldn't wait to peek inside and see what the King and Snow White must be planning for Regina. She was the Queen, it had to be amazing and something spectacular and deserving of Regina. It would be even better than last year, she was sure of it.

Surely the King and Snow White had learned from the mistakes they'd made when they had celebrated Regina's last birthday. The food had been all wrong, none of the treats or meals Regina loved. She had noticed how Snow White had devoured everything, so surely the others must have noticed how Regina pushed the food around on her plate but did not eat much of it. The gifts given were gaudy and shiny, jewels and fine fabrics, nothing to do with nature or horses or meaningful odds and ends, though Snow had seemed to swoon over them. The music too had been not to Regina's taste, yet she had indulged in dancing with Snow White when the girl insisted, praising the music. Even the conversations she had glimpsed her mother having didn't appear to be pleasant. But, then again, no one had actually seemed to pay much attention to Regina during the last celebration for her. They gushed over Snow, they surrounded the King…she couldn't recall if any of the guests had even wished Regina a happy birthday, now that she thought about it. Had the king even given a speech for his wife? She didn't think so.

But they MUST have fixed their mistakes. No one could have missed the tense smiles, the way she sat there so stiffly, the quietness to her. No one could have missed how unhappy Regina had been. They had to have seen. And if they had, then they would want to fix it. No one should be sad on their birthday.

She could just imagine what would be on the other side of the doors. Soft colors, of light blues and greens and silvers. Simple decorations. Apples, lots of treats made of apples, tarts and pies, and other fruits. A large table where everyone could feel they were a part of the celebration and not separate ones, with one higher than the others for the royals. It would be small, quaint, with soft music playing. There would be no fancy gowns or snooty women, just simple dresses and food, with a small space to dance.

She pushed against the door, eager to see what was on the other side, hearing a soft clink of the lock opening. The doors were rather large, she had to use all her weight to push it, but she managed to squeeze into the room…

And her smile fell, her face scrunching in confusion as she looked around.

The room was desolate.

It was completely empty, no tables or chairs, no decorations, no food set up. She was quite sure she could even see a thin layer of dust on the railing of the stairs she stood at the top of. There were no candles lit, nor any even placed in the holders around the room.

But…this couldn't be right.

It was Regina's birthday! The celebrations, the ones that would lead up to the banquet, would be starting in just a few short hours. There was no way that the servants would be able to ready anything in that time. It didn't look like anyone in the castle WAS trying to ready anything for Regina either. She had noted, when she had peeked in the kitchen and the servants' quarters, that all the others appeared to be going about their normal days. She'd thought it meant everything was ready for the party and rushed to the ballroom to see it before it was crowded with other nobles.

If the hall was empty, and the servants weren't coming to set anything up then…did that mean…but it couldn't…

Had the king truly forgotten the birthday of his wife?

She knew the man wasn't a good man, not as good as he wanted his people to think. She had seen her mother crying too many times after 'spending time' with the king, had seen her looking so sad and lonely when surrounded by him and Snow White, that she knew he wasn't a good man. But she had at least thought he'd recall Regina's birthday. He had last year. She could remember, she had heard him speaking in the hall just before he entered with Snow and Regina, how it would be a wondrous celebration for his daughter's step-mother.

Oh.

She let out a breath as the words sunk in. She hadn't noticed back then, she had just associated it with Regina, a celebration for her. But it wasn't, not really. It had been for SNOW's step-mother, not Regina. The king hadn't remembered Regina, he'd only remembered because it pertained to Snow White.

So then why hadn't he remembered this year? Snow White surely would have been gushing about a party for her 'new mother' and eager for the sweets and gowns and dancing. Unless…

Had Snow White forgotten her step-mother's birthday too?

Honestly, it would not surprise her. She had noticed, over the years, Snow White and the King only tended to seek out Regina when they had need of her or if she had duties to uphold. When she wasn't needed, it was like they didn't even think of her.

She put her fists on her hips, frowning deeply at the deserted room, before she promptly turned on her heel and nearly stomped towards the door.

Well, if the king and princess weren't going to celebrate her mother, she was certainly going to celebrate enough for everyone!

…she just had to figure out a way to do it.

~8~

Lyssa hesitated in front of Regina's door, not sure if she should enter or not. Normally she wouldn't even pause, she knew she was always welcome in Regina's room, especially when her own small room was connected to her mother's. She couldn't quite access her room without first entering Regina's. But, at the same time, she wasn't sure how disappointed her mother might be at the moment and if her mother was disappointed with her then she was quite sure she would start to cry.

She had tried, so hard, to come up with the perfect gift for her mother, one that would be amazing enough to make up for the fact that the King and Snow White had forgotten Regina's birthday. She had tried to go to the market, on her own, to find a gift, but she was too small and the few coins she had saved up weren't enough to get anything for her mother. So she'd gone to the gardens, thinking she could, perhaps, pick a small bouquet of flowers for her. Her mother likely wouldn't want a gift that was purchased anyway, she had always loved the smaller things. A bundle of flowers would be lovely, she was sure of it.

The gardener, however, didn't seem to agree.

She had only managed to pick two or three flowers when the gardener had noticed. She had been behind a very large bush, knelt down to try and pick some smaller blossoms, when she'd heard him shouting. He had been spitting mad, calling for the guards to come and help him find the thief that would dare steal from the queen's gardens.

Needless to say, she had rushed out of the gardens as quickly as she could, leaving the flowers she had plucked behind in the hopes that they wouldn't look for her if they got their flowers back.

Next she had thought she could make something for Regina, but everything she had to work with was in her room and if she returned there, Regina would see it. She couldn't risk using odds and ends from around the castle, what if the guards thought she was stealing?!

She'd realized quite quickly that there wasn't much she could actually do to help celebrate her mother's birthday the way she deserved to be celebrated.

The only option left was to find a way to remind the King or Snow White about it and hope they could do something to help, that they were powerful enough as royals to create a fantastic banquet with an hour to go before nightfall. It was easier to think that than to actually see it through though. If it was difficult to maneuver herself through the castle without the guards seeing her or thinking too much of her, it was even more so to get close to the king or princess.

For how little her mother was guarded, it seemed it was even more so that the other two royals were guarded. It was nearly impossible to approach Snow White. She had gotten close though. She had snuck into the laundry room, taken an armful of sheets and hurried down the halls, pretending like she was delivering clean sheets to one of the rooms on the floor Snow White's chambers were in. She'd gotten close to the girl, who had been walking down the hallway towards her in a stroke of luck, the woman, Johanna, beside her. The girl was talking animatedly about a new gown she had been given and was having tailored, with two guards close behind her.

She had tripped just as she passed Snow White, hoping the princess would turn and help gather the dropped items and she could say she was bringing the sheets to the Queen so everything would be fresh and clean for her celebration day. She had seen Regina rush to help servants in the manor when they dropped things around her. Regina was always so kind to the servants she assumed Snow White might be the same, more so even.

She had been wrong.

Snow White hadn't even noticed, just kept walking with her maid and guards, leaving Lyssa to pick up the now dirty-sheets and huff. It was only right to bring the sheets back to the laundry to be cleaned after she had soiled them.

She could admit her plan hadn't been a good one. This was Snow White, this was King Leopold's daughter, the girl who had blurted out to Cora who Daniel was. The girl would never be as kind and considerate as Regina, she never should have thought Snow White would be thoughtful enough to help her if someone dropped something in front of her.

Looking back on it now, her plan to try and get near the King was going to fail before she could even try it. The man was locked away in his council chamber, going over details of the kingdom with his advisors. She hadn't even gotten near the door to the chamber either, merely hidden around the corner from the hall that led to it, seeing a number of guards on the outside of it, more than normal, which only happened during those meetings. She had hoped he would be in court today, hearing the pleas of his people, and she might appear as a thoughtful peasant wishing to offer the queen a gift for her birthday.

But why would a peasant remember when the king hadn't?

It was foolish and she felt foolish for having ever thought she could get the nobility to listen to her and now her mother wouldn't have a birthday celebration and it was all her fault.

She clutched the cup in her hands tightly as she took a breath and knocked on the door to her mother's rooms. She had made a disaster of the day, the least she could do was apologize for not having a better gift to give her mother.

Regina opened the door, blinking, a bit startled to see Lyssa there, knocking and not just entering, "Lyssa?" she asked, stepping aside to let the girl in, closing the door behind her before crouching down so she was eye to eye with the girl, "What's wrong, little fox? You know you never have to knock with me."

It was true, Leopold never came to call until the rest of the castle, or at least Snow, had gone to bed and Lyssa was often abed by the same time as the Princess.

"I'm sorry, mama," Lyssa bowed her head even as she offered Regina the small cup she had.

"What do you have to be sorry for?" Regina shook her head, taking the cup and looking down at it, sniffing it, "Our special drink?" she took a sip of it, the warmed milk that was mixed with chocolate and cinnamon, "It's delicious, Lyssa."

"It's my birthday gift to you," Lyssa shuffled slightly, still not looking up at Regina, "I'm sorry it's small."

Regina blinked, setting the cup aside to reach out and lift Lyssa's chin, "Lyssa, you know I don't care about the size of a gift, just the thought behind it. And I love our special drink. You made it just for me? All by yourself?"

Lyssa nodded at that, the kitchens had been nearly done for the night, dinner already served to the king and his advisors and Snow had already taken her meal. There was just preparations for the next morning and few servants in the kitchen as a result. She had managed to putter around, making it look like she was playing, told it was ok so long as she didn't make a mess. So she'd quickly made the special drink her mother made for her on special occasions or when she was sad or ill.

"It was wonderful, and I love it," Regina repeated.

"I wanted to give you a special gift," Lyssa told her, starting to speak quickly as though giving Regina excuses, "I wanted to see the ballroom for the party, but nothing was ready and no one was setting it up. And I thought they forgot so I wanted to get you a gift to make you happy again. But I couldn't buy one and the mean old gardener got mad when I plucked a flower and I couldn't make anything and I tried to remind the princess and the king but they were too busy and I'm sorry, mama. I'm sorry…"

"Oh, Lyssa," Regina quickly pulled her into her arms when the girl began to cry, "Shhh, dear, it's alright."

"No, it isn't," she argued even as she clutched at her mother as Regina began to rock her back and forth in a comforting manner, "They forgot you."

"They tend to do that a lot," Regina reminded her gently.

"Not today they shouldn't."

"You're right, today they shouldn't. But they did," she pulled away slightly to look at her daughter, "I think the only reason they remembered last year was because daddy came to visit, but he couldn't this year. Not with the damage that last storm did to the manor," she began to reach out and wipe the tears from Lyssa's face, "But, you know what? I'm glad they don't remember. I don't want them to remember."

"…really?" Lyssa asked, her voice small, not sure if her mother was saying that just to make her feel better or because she was serious.

"Really," Regina nodded, "They would throw that awful party again," she scrunched up her face in exaggerated distaste, earning a giggle from Lyssa, "They'd play music I don't like and give me food I can't stomach, and gifts I don't appreciate."

Lyssa looked down at that, "I was going to draw you something," she told her, "As a gift, but I didn't have time."

"Hmm," Regina hummed, in mock-though, "How about we both draw something right now?"

"Right now?" Lyssa looked up at her with wide eyes.

"Mhmm," she nodded, "I can't think of a better gift than spending time with my daughter."

Lyssa beamed and jumped out of Regina's arms to run to her room and gather up her small bits of charcoal and papers, rushing back out to Regina and holding them up. Regina scooped her and the items up into her arms and carried Lyssa over to a small table in her room, with a chair on either side of it. But instead of placing Lyssa in one and sitting herself in the other, she moved Lyssa onto her lap.

"You start," she whispered to the girl as she hugged Lyssa around the middle, watching as she quickly began to draw her typical stick-figured art.

She considered briefly, if she might be able to find a way to ask Leopold for an art teacher, to claim she had taken an interest in it, but really to have Lyssa learn for the girl was obsessed with drawing, but she knew there was too much danger in it. If the art teacher spoke up about the young girl that was his true student or the one always lingering about during lessons, Leopold would know.

"You know," she began, "I think this is the absolute best birthday I've had in a very long time."

Lyssa paused in her drawing to look up at her mother, "Really?"

"Oh yes," Regina's smile grew bittersweet as she looked at the sketch Lyssa was making, already she could tell who each figure was. Herself, Lyssa, her father, her favorite horse, and Daniel, all together. Apparently the girl had started to draw exactly that, what her best birthday would have been. She shook her head out of her thoughts and dropped a kiss to Lyssa's hair, "Spending it with someone who loves me, nothing could ever be better."

"I love you, mama," Lyssa told her.

"I know you do, little fox," she dropped another kiss to the top of her head, "I love you, too."

And that was how her night was spent, watching her daughter draw pictures for her, taking part and drawing some herself, just…spending time with her daughter, without the snooty guests and food and dancing and appearances to keep up and smiles to plaster on. Just the two of them together.

Best birthday ever.

A/N: Aww, poor Regina and Lyssa :( I got the feeling that Regina wasn't completely acting during the episode with the Genie. She seemed far too used to being overlooked and ignored and I felt like it had to have started somewhere. I could see the king and Snow remembering Regina's birthday maybe the first couple years, but then it slowly turning into a celebration for 'Snow's step mother' and not Regina, before it just faded entirely :( Not that I think Regina would have wanted a party thrown by them, still, to have it at least acknowledged would have been something :(

As for the future of this story, I have something I just want to announce here.

I know there's been a bit of ongoing concern about Lyssa defending Regina given Regina's past actions as the Evil Queen. I just want to let you know that, before this story (CBTS) is over, we'll find out exactly what Regina's past as 'Evil Queen' with Lyssa there was actually like and WHY Lyssa feels she can defend Regina.

I've brought up a few times in A/Ns and in the story itself that there's more going on than the heroes realize that allows Lyssa to not see Regina as evil and that Regina's past will, of course, be different with a child there to watch over. This story is a what-if look into that, what Regina would become if she had a child to care for at the height of her 'Evil Queen' days, how the story might change. I planned to reveal what was behind those statements much later in the series. But, if I'm being honest, I feel like I've repeated that a bunch and there's still the tendency to use the show (and not the story) as an example of why Lyssa's in the wrong for defending Regina. Regina's past will finally be explained, at least to readers ;) The heroes have a few more rounds to go before they find out the truth };)

We'll finally know what happened that the heroes don't know and why, in this story, Regina may not be evil, according to Lyssa ;)

And just a tiny note, for anyone reading who may be in the sort of NY area and might be planning to go to the Renaissance Faire, I'll probably be walking around there on the 1st of September with my 'Keep calm and put the kettle on' t-shirt so if you see me, feel free to say hi! ;D

Some notes on reviews...

Lyssa does have a bit of a hard time not judging Gold, I agree. Part of it is quite a few things she has witnessed of things he personally did to Regina in her past and manipulations/abuse he deals her to get what he wanted, someone evil enough and desperate enough to cast his curse, someone whose life he helped destroy and whose soul he helped blacken to do it, on top of the 'Dark One' magic. In a general scope of the magic of the Enchanted Forest, to Lyssa, the Dark One has no opposing magical force of good and therefore the balance of the realm is off. There is a Dark One but not a Light One, which is dangerous. It will be interesting to see her face off with Belle, both will defend the ones they love, but Lyssa will have something over Belle, an actual role in practically all of Regina's life. She'll have been there and involved in everything Regina does from just before Daniel dies straight through the curse, whereas Belle wasn't fully involved in the Dark One's actions and only was around about 3 or so years, she wasn't there during the corruption of Regina to get his side of things. It'll be interesting to see their takes on things :) Lyssa may come across as hypocritical in her only seeing Regina's side, but until the other heroes even attempt to see Regina's side of things, Lyssa is going to feel it's her duty to stick up for her mother because absolutely no one else will. Also, keep in mind, Lyssa knows a lot of things from Regina's past that the heroes don't. So, in this case, SHE maybe isn't the one who needs her eyes opened about Regina ;) We all know what she did in the show and we'll find out very soon what that means in the story. We'll have to agree to disagree about Regina and how evil she may or may not be in this story ;)

That was something I really wanted to look into. I mean, Snow White did some pretty dark things, but the chances of other heroes condemning her for it are slim to none :( She orchestrates for Emma's potential for evil to be sucked out of her and put into another soul, the heroes would probably see that as 'she's saving the savior!' But if someone like Regina had done the same, the heroes would see it as 'she's cursed a child!' :( Not fair :(

That's going to be a very major detail in the series for Lyssa, how the victors tell the story, or in this case how the heroes tell it. The heroes see one thing and that's the story they tell, but no one really cares enough to look into the villain side or get their take on it. Lyssa will sort of be the catalyst to the other side of the story and a push to show the heroes they aren't always right and their prejudice and black/white view of things can be very, very wrong :)
