"Me? I'm nobody. I'm not skilled like Uchiha-san. I am not passionate like Haruno-san. I am not smart like Nara-san. I'm not as strong as Chouji-san. I'm not as collected as Aburame-san. Or as pretty as Yamanaka-san. I'm not as confident as Inuzuka-san. If anything, I'm like Hyuuga-san, socially awkward. Oh wait, no, she's just shy. The socially awkward one is me." OC! Team 7 remix!

Chapter 63 – What's there to be happy about!?

8-8

"Alright! Is everyone ready!?" I call out, weaving through the hustle and bustle that is the morning rush in our house. Asami still hasn't gotten the kinks worked out in the security system, not across the street, and certainly not on either of the other two houses. So, we're still stuck with two bathrooms and more than enough people that need to be ready by a certain time.

"Aya, I can handle things here, you need to start heading out. You know they're going to have a last minute meeting, and you need to be there for it." Mom points out.

"I know, I'm leaving in a minute. I just need to know th-"

"None of that. I will take care of it. Shoo!"

"Alright, alright. I've been shooed." I hold my hands up in surrender, smiling anyway. "Please don't be late though." I try one last time before mom frowns and shoos me wordlessly.

"Let's go." I turn to Tsu and Hitomi. They nod and we start our trek to the Tower. There's still a good two hours before the inauguration ceremony, but it's a MAJOR even and if they aren't there early, then all the good spots will be gone!

Still, whatever. Mom said she'd handle it, and we've already discussed who's going, who's staying, and all that junk.

If they don't show up on time, it's on them!

In Senju-san's office, I'm greeted by the lady of the hour herself. "Aya. Good, you're here early. Listen, I've gone over the information Tayuya gave you. That seal is a high quality security measure, and there's no way she could fake that kind of knowledge. Jiraiya's heading out tonight to confirm the…" She trails off when she finally notices my patient smile. "You already know the info is legit."

I shrug. "Now, Senju-san, how could I confirm that?" I ask, smirking.

"… Alright." She smiles, shaking her head. "When you have that location secured, you can transfer her."

"What about Tsuchi Kin?"

"You could have transferred her already. It's not as if she'd pose a threat." Senju-san shrugs.

"True. We'll see what can be arranged. I don't think anyone will be happy with another filled futon right now." It's not something worth worrying about for now, really. I'm sure Asami will have those security systems up soon enough.

"I wonder where you fit everyone." Senju-san teases.

"We manage." Is all I say. That I share my bed with three others isn't vital information to share at this point. "Is everything prepared for the ceremony?"

"Nn. Someone tried talking me into wearing some getup, but that's just not my style. I'm wearing the hat, nothing more." She says, stubborn as ever. Still, 'Senju' has pretty much been synonymous with 'Hokage' since the village's founding. No one will doubt her.

"You're speech is prepared?" I ask.

"Short and to the point. That's always worked for me." She answers, smiling for some reason.

"And Jiraiya will be there as a show of support?"

"Yes. Homura-sama will hand me the hat, and Koharu-sama will be there as well." She's smiling even wider. Why is she smiling like that?

"You're not going to wear the gown?"

"No. It's designed for men, it won't ever fit me right." She's shaking her head, grinning. "Aya, are you here this early to pester me?"

"The thought has crossed my mind, yes. But I'm mostly here in case you wanted a pre-ceremony meeting for whatever reason." I say.

"I've been Hokage since getting back to the village. This is just for the show." Her eyes are almost glowing now. "And be careful, I might be tempted to think you respect me."

You've had dinner at my house every night since I started working for you. If that doesn't tell you something, nothing will. "Whatever gets you through the day. No guards with you?"

"Hmm? No. I sent them off when one of them sensed you coming. I doubt anyone will be stupid enough to bother me with you here."

I sigh, shrugging and shaking my head. "Stubborn as ever, I see. So what'd you do to poor Katou-san?"

"She's out bugging Jiraiya, or looking for him at least. She spent most of the morning asking me the same questions you did."

8-8

"We should get going. The ceremony is starting in twenty minutes, and I'd rather us be there well ahead of schedule." I suggest.

"We can body flicker and be there in less than a minute." Senju-san tries, still reading through a report.

"Irrelevant. We should be there early in case something needs to be discussed. Security measures, update in protocol, that sort of thing." I counter.

"They know where to find me if such a thing comes up." She really isn't giving up.

"They might well expect us to show up early and don't send someone to find us, not know where we are." I press, my tone souring.

"If they can't find us in my office, then they shouldn't be shinobi."

"Senju-san. We're leaving. The paperwork will be here when you get back." I demand, grabbing it from her and putting it on her desk. She glares at me. "Move it!"

She glares even harder. Katou-san is nervous, to the point of sweating and clearly about to freak out. I've seen kittens with scarier looks. "Senju-san. Get up. We're going."

"You think a little girl like you can order me around?"

"Senju-san. This isn't a debate. This isn't even a discussion. Either you come with me, or we find out if I'm capable of detaining someone of your calibre. Pick." She slams her hands on her desk, standing to her full height and staring me down. "Congratulations. You're taller than a thirteen year old." I feel killing intent wash over me, and her glaring is probably something that might kill a lesser man. Too bad I'm not a man. My hand is poised to snap. "Peaceful, or by force?"

She laughs, her face and eyes lighting up with amusement. There's also a lining of respect in her eyes. I cock an eyebrow, wondering what's wrong with her.

"Thirteen and won't back down even against a Kage." Her tone seems to be filled with that same amusement and lining of respect. "Kami-sama, I'm glad to have you on board. Alright. Let's go."

"You've been hanging out with Jiraiya, haven't you." I drone, unimpressed.

8-8

As we'd discussed –mostly because I refuse to appear in front of the village without a plan– Katou-san and I will flank Senju-san while she walks towards the edge of the balcony, with Ryuuzetsu and Hitomi flanking us. This way we show Konoha that Senju-san isn't alone in taking up her duties, and everyone that's been in the Tower or the hospital has seen us helping her in any way we can.

Senju-san starts moving forward. All eyes are on her. Katou-san and I stop a short, letting her walk the last part alone. Tsu and 'Tomi stop with us.

The crowd, thousands strong, cheers loudly.

I sniff the air, identifying those on the balcony with us and a few Anbu I'm familiar with nearby. The only emotion I identify from the crowd is excitem… Even now people are trying to be stupid?

Activating the Transparent Escape jutsu and fading from sight, I skulk up to Senju-san, around her and right next to her. She doesn't react, but I know she knows I'm here. I study the crowd, looking for the idiot that really thinks this is a good time to be an idiot. Hmm, one of these things is not like the other. A sea of cheer and excitement, and you come here frowning?

I lean on the railing, waiting for him to do something stupid. I don't wait long. His face morphs into the picture of hatred and rage, he reaches into his kimono and pulls out a crossbow. He aims at Senju-san.

Evidence enough for me.

Snap!

The idiot is trapped in a Mime's Barrier just after he pulls the trigger. Good. That means I can prove who his target is. The bolt flies at us. Aimed at Senju-san. Poorly aimed, but still. I grab it out of thin air, wondering at the cries of shock and outrage. Come on, Senju-san could have handled this 'attack' in her sleep! With both hands tied behind her back! The man is no doubt some disgruntled merchant that had a request turned down, or whatever.

I hover the barrier (passenger included) up onto the Balcony, right between two Anbu –Parrot and Sloth– who take the man in to custody the second my barrier drops.

"I wonder how much sake he drank before coming here." I mumble, walking back to my position and dropping my camouflage jutsu. I toss the bolt to Sloth just before the two of them disappear with the idiot.

The ghoul duo come out. The he-ghoul says something official sounding and places the hat on Senju-san's head. The crowd cheers loudly once again. She turns to the crowd, letting them see her –still wearing the same clothes she wears every day– with a hat on. How patriotic.

The cheering dies down. They want to hear what she has to say. "Citizens of Konoha! From this day forth, I will protect this village! I am the Fifth Hokage!" She takes of the hat and waves it around dramatically.

Well, that was anticlimactic.

And people are going absolutely nuts! Wow. Low expectations, much? Now they're chanting her name. Sheep mentality. Pure, uncontrolled, sheep mentality.

Senju-san waves and bows reverently to the crowd, then turns and strolls away. The bands take that as their cue, and the music strikes up. The inauguration celebration is underway. I roll my eyes. I'm never going to understand people.

8-8

We spend the next three hours walking around, letting people greet Senju-san in the streets. I smell a few Anbu colleagues I know now and again, but they never stick around. I wonder about that, eventually deciding it doesn't matter. Senju-san has three Anbu with her already, after all.

"Aya, hold onto this for me, will you?" Senju-san offers me the hat. I roll my eyes, sealing it into my glove for her. We really need to talk about this, 'boss'. I'm not a trained puppy that's supposed to follow you around. Get 'Kashi-nii and try that with him.

Sniff.

#Trouble.# I sign to Tsu and 'Tomi. I even had to tuck back my sleeve a bit so they could see it, but I don't check if they got that, I know they did. I fade from view once again, making my way in front of Senju-san so that there's a triangle of guards surrounding her. As soon as I do, the source of trouble vanishes. I nod; smart.

Moving back into position, I drop the camouflage.

8-8

No one else is stupid enough to make another dumb move. So around five in the afternoon, Senju-san calls it a day. We body flicker to her office, where she seals away the last of the paperwork, and her usual Anbu entourage takes her home. I wave, telling her that I'll see her tomorrow, before body flickering back to the den. And find her waiting there, with her entourage.

"Really, Senju-san?" I am not amused.

"What? Yasu cooks good." I roll my eyes, opening the gate and letting her and her usual three bodyguards in.

"Oi. None of that 'one with the shadows' crap. If you three are on my property, that means no masks and no hiding. You're guests, not on duty." I demand. They look to Senju-san.

"You heard the lady. Besides, it's not like you three will even stand out here." She sounds amused – at least one of us is.

We enter the house, finding the usual chaos. Konohamaru's chasing Yuzuki from room to room. Sakiko and Katsuo and running behind them. And behind them is Udon and Moegi. I can't decide which is laughing or screaming loudest.

In the family sitting room, 'Kashi-nii, Tenzo and Yuugao are just starting on their sake. Daddy and Chouza-san are with them, but no Inoichi-san. No Anbu Operatives that all but live here. And no patients, not even Chouji. "Oi! Aren't we missing quite a few people?" I ask, wondering.

"Back yard. Zabuza decided to have a spar with Guy. Taijutsu only." 'Kashi-nii updates me, not caring in the least. "Zabuza actually thinks he stands a chance."

"I'm not putting him back together. You know that right?"

"Hana and Haku are with them." Ah.

"Whatever. I feel like some chocolate. You want some sake?" I offer Senju-san.

"Is that a question?" She smiles warmly.

I wave it off. "It's polite to ask." I leave them in the family sitting room. I find Yasu-nee and mom in the kitchen already working on dinner – and ignoring the sounds of an intense fight outside. "Hey, guess who's home?" I tease.

"I was wondering when to expect you. Mariko-chan and Remi-chan are upstairs changing into something more comfortable. I hope you don't mind that they're using your room?" Mom greets me, stopping her chopping and dicing long enough to put down her knife and hug me.

"Not at all. It smells good in here!" I praise. "Ooh, Y-"

"It's in the freezer. Top drawer." Yasu-nee says, smiling.

"You spoil me sometimes. And I love you for it." I hug her as well, being somewhat more careful than I usually would be.

"From what mom tells me, you deserve it. I can't believe someone tried to harm Tsunade-san!" I know, right? What a moron. "Luckily you were there."

"Senju-san could have stopped a lot worse than that. She just knew I was there so she didn't bother to." I say.

"Maybe, but Tsume-san says she didn't even need to station any Anbu with her today. That says something." She isn't giving up. Whatever. I open the freezer, finding carefully wrapped ice cream sandwiches. I take out one and close everything back up. Not even caring that it just came out of the freezer, I take a bite.

"Did you already give mom the big news?" I ask Yasu-nee, tapping my left ring finger so she knows what I'm talking about.

"Of course. I told her and dad this morning after you left." She says smiling brightly.

"Dad was a little… concerned about the rush, but he didn't make a fuss when I explained that I know how quickly a shinobi's life can change, so…" She's rambling, just a little, but I don't mind. Talking to daddy when he already suspects something is up is… daunting. You never know if something you say will tip him off or make him curious and have him investigate.

"How'd he take it? Other than the suspicious glances and subtly pointed questions." I ask mom that, she'd know his moods better than anyone.

"He's happy, but worried. He thinks Yasu has something to do with your funny mood all week." I was afraid of that. "But, he dropped it after Kakashi explained that she's pregnant."

…

"Okay, first of all, he'd never tell daddy that." I cross my arms and glare and mom, even though I'm careful with my ice cream sandwich. Chocolate isn't fun to get out of a kimono. "Second of all, daddy wouldn't calm down after that." I tap my foot impatiently. "And third of all, you're just fishing in the dark."

"Maybe, but the pieces fit. Congratulations, sweetie." She hugs Yasu-nee, who's in tears.

"I'm sorry. It's not something we-"

"None of that. Planned or not, Kakashi did the honourable thing without having to be bullied into it. And everyone knows you two love each other. So don't you go feeling bad for being human." Mom soothes, rubbing Yasu-nee's back gently. "How far along are you?"

"Three weeks?" Yasu-nee pulls back a bit, trying to wipe away the tears that just won't stop. "Shizune-san has been monitoring me and bringing all the supplements and whatnot I'd need to minimize the risks."

"When the time comes to tell your father, you let me know and I'll handle him. It's still way too early to let people know anything." Mom says, her tone and eyes gentle and warm. "How'd you find out though?" That one's aimed at me.

I tap my nose. "Pregnancy hormones and us sharing a bathroom. I'm actually shocked 'Kashi-nii didn't figure it out for himself."

"He probably didn't think it was possible. How'd he take the news?" Mom asks, concern in her eyes as she carefully studies Yasu-nee.

"After the initial shock? He proposed." I tattled, grinning. "I swear, they were acting like two schoolchildren that just started dating for the rest of the night."

"D'aww." She gushes, glowing happily for the joy that found her eldest daughter. Then, out of the blue she covers her nose and mouth with both hands, her eyes wide with shock. "Oh Kami, I'm going to be a grandmother." Reality, welcome home. It took you long enough to get here.

Note to self. Stop talking in the kitchen. In fact, stop talking. Period. Jounins in the next room, all of them constantly keeping an eye on the ladies in the kitchen, even if only to be peripherally aware of their surroundings. Not a good thing when talking about huge news like unplanned pregnancies.

So. 'Kashi-nii and Yasu-nee are sitting side by side on the couch, while daddy and mom are sitting across from them. Luckily we're in my office this time, with the door sealed and privacy seal activated. At least this conversation will be private.

"So." Daddy begins. "You're pregnant."

"… Yes, sir." 'Kashi-nii answers, knowing poor Yasu-nee is having enough trouble breathing right now.

"Aya knew."

"I was the one that told them." I say, not looking away from him.

"And you didn't tell anyone because…?" He fixes me with a disappointed gaze.

"Because I was waiting for them to come to me about it. I didn't know they hadn't figured it out, since it's so early on." I explain, still not looking away. I am not ashamed of my choices, so I refuse to act as if I am.

"I'd already heard how Kakashi reacted, so I won't ask. All I want to know is why everyone avoided telling me." He sounds supremely annoyed.

"Because you're her father?" I point out like it's obvious. "I mean, be honest, daddy. If you found out before 'Kashi-nii had the chance to find out, if you found out and saw the initial shock. Would you believe he'd proposed because he believes it's the right thing to do, or because he was afraid you'd kill him in the most graphic and painful way possible?"

"… Fair point." He admits, half shrugging. "You do realise that I'm still not happy with you." He aims that at his soon to be son-in-law.

"I don't understand it either, sir. And I'm doubly surprised that I didn't notice it sooner." He admits, shame lining his tone. "I messed up. Now I need to do all I can to fix it, to honour Yasu-chan as she deserves, and to ensure that she is both protected and provided for."

"That's a start." Daddy says, worry in his eyes. "And what about living arrangements?"

"We've already discussed and taken care of that." 'Kashi-nii answers, pride in his posture and eye again. "I bought the house next to the Uzumakis, so we'll have somewhere to raise our… child." I hear the goofy happiness flowing off that last word. "Aya also demanded that we stay here so that the pack can take care of Yasu during her pregnancy, and I plan on begging for us to stay here a bit longer so that our child will be surrounded by family for at least the first few months when the care is most intensive."

"No need. I'm not letting her leave before that anyway." I say, smiling. "And I certainly won't mind if you stay longer."

"And the risks of shinobi-civilian pregnancies?" Daddy leans forward, his shoulders tense and a father's worries on plain display in every part of him.

"She is legally civilian, in that you are right, sir. But Aya's been training her in medical jutsu and sound release. Naruto's been training her in Sealing arts. And… mom's been helping her with those frying pan katas to train her body. She's at least low genin." Mom almost melts when 'Kashi calls her that.

"… Not ideal, but better than nothing." Daddy sighs, a little relieved. "Kakashi… you'd better take care of my daughter."

"I intend to." He says, his eye shining with determination. "Besides, I know my cute Imouto-chan will be the first to get on my case if I mess up."

I snort, amused. "Was there ever a doubt?"

"… I don't want to sound callous, but… are there arrangements if… something should happen to you?" Daddy really isn't leaving anything up to chance.

"Of course. There's a pact between the Hatakes, Yukis, Uzumakis and Namikis. We will care for each other as if caring for our own. If something happens to me, Yasu and our child will be cared for." 'Kashi-nii explains. "That's part of the reason Ryuuzetsu bears my family name, to honour our pact."

"And this is in writing so the council cannot give you grief?" Daddy isn't giving up. "I've been through this with Aya. I do not intend to let another suffer like that."

"It is. All four clan heads signed the pact." I answer this time. "If you would like to read it?" I offer. He nods, so I head to my desk and open one of my sealed drawers. I offer him the official document, even bearing the Hokage's seal of authenticity.

"This… is based on our Four Clan's treaty." He says, approving. He goes over it carefully. "There's a fifth space, meant for the Uchihas."

"…" No one answers him.

"Good." He knows, and he obviously approves. "Good…"

"Hey, Sasa-nee, you okay?" I ask, finding the morose redhead on me bed, staring at the ceiling. She's halfway to tears, and there's an obvious cloud hanging over her.

"No." Well, she's honest at least.

"Do you want to talk about it?" I offer, climbing into my bed next to her.

"… No." That's a hesitant yes, but she just needs a nudge.

"Kono-chan seems to be doing well." I say, trying to figure out what point on the ceiling she finds interesting. "He and the kids are downstairs playing, laughing. He's still an emotional wreck and would sometimes start crying for no reason, but… he's coping pretty well, all things considered."

"…" She turns away from me, obviously trying to hide her reaction. I smell her tears anyway.

"He was worried at first." I press on. "That people would forget the Third, that the world would move on and he would just fade. Like how he can't remember his parents, you know?" The advantage of having so many attentive packmates, is that details like that don't remain secrets for long. We pick up on our pack's mood, and we won't give up until we know what's bothering them. Asami's held out longer than anyone, but today's the day to deal with that.

"Is that what's bothering you? That you've lost another father?" She sniffles, and the scent of tears almost overwhelms me. I turn to her, wrapping my arm around her middle. "There's no shame in being hurt, angry that you got a raw deal."

"… it isn't that." She eventually says. "I… I'm hurting, yes. But…"

"Sasa-nee, what's wrong?"

"I don't… I don't belong." She flies into my embrace, crying bitterly. "Anywhere. I don't belong with the Sarutobis, I don't belong with the Uzumakis, I don't belong anywhere."

"Yes, you do." I tell her, overwhelmed myself from the intensity of her emotions. "I can't tell you anything about the Sarutobi clan. But Konohamaru loves you. Sarutobi-sensei loves you. At least those two will always feel you belong with them."

I hold onto her, hoping to keep her from falling to pieces right in front of me. "However, I can speak for the Uzumakis. You will always be welcomed among them. Just as you will always be welcomed among the Namikis, the Hatakes and the Yukis. You are one of us, Sasa-nee." She clings to me, squeezing me a little tighter as if she's afraid she'll drown in her grief. "Just like how Karin and I got off to a rough start, you and Naruto have a rocky past."

She blubbers about how sorry she is, I think; it's kind of hard to make out her muffled and jumbled words. "But, I would give my life for Karin. Much the same way both Naruto-nii and I would give our lives for you." I tell her, certainty in my voice that I know she won't miss. "You will always belong with us, Uzumaki Asami. You will always be welcome among us."

Why am I always playing doctor with patients that shouldn't be mine to begin with?

"Aya, there you are." Senju-san motions me over to the table in the family sitting room. "It's official, I'm Hokage."

"Congratulations, Senju-san." I roll my eyes. I was there, you know.

"Same old Aya. That point is, that gives me the authority to upgrade the Namiki family, to the Namiki clan. I thought you would appreciate signing the papers with your pack to bear witness." She smiles, motioning for me to sit across from her.

It takes a minute to arrange, but Yasu-nee, Katsuo, Sakiko and I sit side-by-side. Senju-san offers me the form, to make it official. "Don't get that paper teary. It's the official document that needs to be copied and filed in Konoha's archives." She warns, her tone playful.

I take my time, filling it in neatly. Then sign, as clan head, Namiki Aya.

"Congratulations, Namiki-sama." Senju-san says, pride in her tone and eyes. "I hereby declare you the Namiki clan." An official rubber stamp appears in her hand out of nowhere, and she slaps it onto the document to make it official. "Now, shoo. I have to deal with the Yuki clan now."

I bow low, thanking her from the bottom of my heart.

"Hey, Aya-nee? What does 'Namiki' mean?" Katsuo asks, curiosity in his eyes.

I tug them along, giving Momochi-san, Haku, Aomaru… and Maki… the space they need to go through their paperwork.

The four of us sit by the open paper screens, our feet dangling over the edge. "Well, like most names there is an obvious meaning and a hidden meaning." I begin, thinking about mama's lecture when I asked her the same thing, years ago.

"'Namiki' usually means a row of trees, which is to show our unwavering loyalty to Konoha, and the leaves those trees bear." I explain, looking up at the clouds. "However, in architecture, 'namiki' is a row of columns. This is to show our earth release jutsu and that, even if we seem like mere decorations, the structure we're a part of would collapse without our strength."

"So, Konoha would fall without us…?" He asks.

"Not Konoha, no. We aren't that conceited. Just the structure, the pack, would weaken without us. That's why we so carefully choose our pack. That's why we so jealously guard our packmates. We… are the columns that keep a roof over our heads." I explain carefully. "Columns do not strengthen a village, just a building. And that building is all we need. A place for us to call home. A place where our pups can be warm in the winter, dry when it rains."

He thinks about that. "So, we aren't strong for ourselves? We're strong because our pack needs us to be?"

"Yes, that's exactly right." I pet his hair, smiling. If one column is weak, the den is in danger of collapsing. So we must all strive to be strong so that our pack will be protected. I don't put that into words though, it would sound too preachy.

"Kiko… let's go. I need to train." Katsuo gets up, already running to the door. Probably to put on his slippers to go outside.

"Coming, Togo!" Kiko and Togo? They're in the front yard not a minute later, toughening up their fists, forearms, shins and knees for strikes and defence. I smile, grateful for my pack.

"I think you and Kashi-chan need to talk about the wedding later." Yasu-nee whispers. "This changes things, doesn't it?"

"Not at all. Having one of my clansmen become the matriarch of the Hatake clan? That's the greatest compliment."

"No, this is the problem right here. If you switch this out, and replace it with this…" Senju-san, Jiraiya, Naruto-nii and Asami are going over the security system together, to make sure it's air tight, as intended. Between the four of them, I'm sure they'll figure this out.

"Listen. This is all way outside of my skillset. How about I take 'Kashi-nii and-"

"No. You are not working on those tunnels until all four compounds are properly secure." Senju-san shoots that down.

"Fine. But can I at least go do something in the kitchen or something?" It's not like I even understand half of what you're talking about!

"No. We're almost done. And when we're done, we'll need you to access the security matrix so we can upgrade it to incorporate the changes. Besides, Jiraiya's going to be doing the tunnelling, so we can already have those tunnels secure before they're even dug. Just sit tight, munch on some chocolate, and stop complaining."

Fine!

I unseal a bar of chocolate and do just that. The four of them keep going back and forth about this and that. I hear a term now and again I actually understand, but for the most part I ignore them.

"Hey… since I have you here anyway? Do you guys think you could do something about Hitomi's Caged Bird Seal?"

End Chapter 63

8-8

A/N: Well, there you have it! Tsunade's officially the Fifth, the Namikis and Yukis are officially a clan. And it looks like those security systems will be up and running asap. So, the next chapter? It's all about organization again. I know, boring! Still, it's needed.

On the flip side, it will really help move things along for something major I have coming up. I hope you guys are enjoying ^_^
