Timeline: After Dorotea's Hoodlum story
"Hmmm?" Kendra muttered still half asleep as she answered her cell phone.
"It's Darry, I need you to get Ellie, it's an emergency!" Darry stated as she could hear the dulcet tones of her paramour in the background.
"Call her..." the sleepy frosh replied as she closed her eyes and was fading back into that wonderful dream of a chocolate covered General frolicking in the shower with her.
"Kendra! Wake up...now!" Darry loudly exclaimed as the sound of the direct order made the frosh Ho's eyes fly wide open and she sat up in bed. "Good...now go get Ellie, she isn't answering her cell phone."
"I'm awake, I'm awake," Kendra tiredly said as she stumbled out of bed, grabbed her cell phone and headed to Ellie's bedroom. "How'd you get my cell number anyway?"
"I know everything." Darry confided as the frosh just nodded her head in agreement.
"Damn these stupid boxes of cookies!" Kendra loudly yelled after tripping over them for the hundredth time, then kicking the offending one across the room, into the far wall. "I thought you were going to get the big guy to move these?" She exclaimed, as the door to Ellie's room flew open with a loud crash.
"Sure, sure, I'll move it!" Ellie said as she sat up in bed, eyes still shut. "Move what? I just got to sleep, I've been going all day with Darry's stupid lists, so why the hell did you wake me up?" She demanded as Kendra couldn't help but laugh at her, asleep, atop her covers, fully dressed. She contained her giggles and thrust the phone at her.
"Oh, did I forget to mention, Darry's on the phone? Seems she has an emergency or something." Kendra stated as she handed the phone to Ellie, who gave her the look of death.
"You are toast!" Ellie promised as she placed her hand over the mouthpiece. "READ MY LIPS, TOAST!"
"Ohhh, idle threats, I like that," Kendra giggled before turning to go back to bed and her delicious dream. "By the way El, don't even think about having all that ice cream delivered to our dorm room, I will not live in an igloo." She quickly added from the living room, her voice raising over the distance.
"It's your uncle's ice cream and your bribe to Darry, so there!" Ellie replied as she stuck out her tongue then got into padawan mode before answering the phone. Before Kendra could get two steps or Ellie could say hello, there was a loud banging on the far wall.
"Will you two keep it down in there!" Kymira's muffled voice could be heard yelling through the walls. "Yeah, some of us are trying to get some sleep around here!" JenJen chimed in. "What are you guys doing in there, throwing the General around or what? Give it a rest!"
Ellie eyed Kendra, Kendra eyed Ellie and then in unison they replied. "Shut up!" And with that Kendra left to go back to her peaceful slumber and Ellie finally answered the phone.

"Yes, Master, may I be of some service?" Ellie tried to answer brightly.
"Cicero and I have both come down with colds and we can't get any more rest tonight. Cic has requested some more warm ale to help him sleep. I'd like a warm glass of milk with a dab of nutella stirred in." Darry requested in a very nasally voice. She heard her servant sneeze in the background.
"Well, why me? Can't you get Cal or Mr. Vocab or something? What am I? A late night drive through? I just finished all your errands from earlier! I'm pooped!" Ellie whined, sinking back into the pillows on her bed.
"A good padawan never questions her Master." Darry preached.
"Alright, let me get dressed," Ellie replied as she looked down and saw she was already dressed in what she had worn that day. "Well, dressed into something else, anyway," she added.
"You'll have your drinks in two shakes of a tiger's tail."
"Oh, and Ellie," Darry chimed in.
"Yes?"
"No more bad cliches."
"Got ya."

And hour later, Ellie had gone to the bar, fulfilled Darry's drink order and delivered them to a sick, but very happy Nurse. She'd fumbled her way back to her room, looked in on the peacefully dreaming Kendra, feeling a twinge of jealousy at her ability to actually get some sleep, and then passed out on the floor in her room.
Before she drifted off amongst the piles of cookie boxes, she vaguely remembered something she had to do the next day. Something for payback to one of the girls? She owed so many people favors, she wasn't sure which it could be? Plus, Darry had given her her Thursday appointment. She wasn't going to miss that! She hadn't boinked the General in a long time; it had been almost a week! She hoped she woke up in time in the morning to get a start on everything she had to do that day.
Right now, though...sleep...

"What?" Kendra sleepily grumbled as she answered her cell phone before the crack of dawn. "Haven't you heard of sleep?" She demanded.
"I need to speak to Ellie!" Darry quickly ordered. "And don't you dare go cut me off or go back to sleep, or that's the last extra appointment with the General you'll get from me!" She stated, as if she could see the tired Ho begin to nod off.
"I'll get her, I'll get her!" The frosh grumbled as she stumbled out of bed and headed once again into Ellie's room. There she found her roommate sleeping on the floor, with her arm draped around a box of mint milano cookies. "Look El, Darry's on the phone again!"
"For Fuc.." Ellie grumbled in exhaustion, before realizing Kendra was holding the cell phone to her head. "Oh you are so toast!" She glared to her roomie through bloodshot eyes as she covered the mouthpiece once again.
"Oh and El, keep the phone, I'll get another. I don't do this morning crap real well...I had a rather exhausting time with the General earlier, we tried the position on page 234 of my tantric sex book. So lets just say, I need my rest." Kendra added before walking out of the room, slamming the door behind her.
"For the love of Obi!" JenJen could be heard yelling through the walls. "Can't you two be quiet and let some of us rest?"
"Shut up!" Ellie and Kendra shouted in unison.
**** "Yes, my Master, what is thy bidding?" Ellie asked in her slurred, sleep deprived speech as she clutched the box of cookies for support.
"Cic and I need you to run over to Denny's again this morning and get us cheese omelets, and after you're done there I need you to....."
