"That's good. So, do you drink?" Lena didn't think Ella drank like Sha'la. "Of course, Sha'la has everyone beat," she joked. "By the way, I bet our classmates are jealous of us that we are excused for almost half a semester from our classes." She ate one of the egg rolls.

Ella giggled at Lena's comment.
"I don't mind the occasional beer. But yeah, I think Sha'la beats everyone in the drinking stakes! I don't know how she manages it."

"When Irish Eyes Are Smiling, sure 'tis like a morn in spring!
In the lilt of Irish laughter you can hear the angels sing...!"


Ella and Lena looked up from their meal.
"Oh boy...someone singing drunkenly in the hall...that can only mean..."

Ella got up and walked over to the door and opened it. Several other students, having been disturbed by the ruckus, were already standing in the hall. Surprisingly, it wasn't Sha'la who was causing the trouble. Instead Nee'la was outside trying to treat some male student who was obviously drunk.
"Well, looks like someone tried to take on Sha'la in the drinking stakes and failed!" Ella joked as she closed the door.

Lena laughed as well. "Well, he should have known better," she joked.

"Anyhow, I need some more drawings for my art class. My professor will probably want me to still draw even if I'm excused from classes, so would you like to model for me?"

"I'm flattered you would ask me, but I don't consider myself to have a picturesque enough figure for art modelling," Ella replied, "Especially after pigging out on all this takeout!" she joked.

She was interrupted by some knocking on the door.
"Now what?" Ella ask as she got up, "Who's there?"
"It's Luh'ciia."

Ella opened the door and smiled.
"Oh Hi. Whatcha doing here?"
"Just thought I might drop by while I had some downtime as I haven't seen you since the power outtage last night. How's it going?"
"Not bad. We are just eating some takeout. Want to join us?"
"Oh, why not? I got a few minutes to kill."
"Hey Lena!" Luh'ciia waved at her friend.

"Hello Luh'ciia! How's everything?" Lena smiled and wagged her tail. "We were just talking about some things like um...these two guys I like. One is a Vekaiyun student and the other is Sha'la's ex." She blushed.

Luh'ciia giggled.
"Oh you mean Kah'lad. I personally thought he was a bit plain but whatever," she winked, "Well, you might have some trouble dating him though because he isn't attending Shiro any more. Not for a while anyway. He left to take up a posting back home. I'm guessing partly to get away from Sha'la," she joked.

Luh'ciia sat down on one of the chairs in the room.
"Man, that Professor will be the death of me. Such an asshole. Seriously. I wonder if he just hates all of us?"

"Oh okay." Lena's ears pressed against her head. When Luh'ciia mentioned her professor, she laughed a bit. "At least you get to go to class! Me and Ella have been excused for half of the semester from classes! I mean, we're both going to have to cram for finals and have tons of homework to do in order to catch up! Or do they do something different here in regards to our situation? And what did your professor do anyhow?"

"Oh, he was so pissed off with the delays caused by the blackouts yesterday that he gave us all triple assignments to all be handed in by next week. All because he couldn't be bothered trying to speed through the lectures. And he seemed to blame us all for the outage in the first place. Thought that we deliberately caused them just to skip class. Or at least, ranted on about our generation and this and that...I don't know...he just hate us..."

Luh'ciia slumped into the chair dejected. Ella offered her some of the Chow Mein to console her. Luh'ciia took it gratefully and started munching on it.
"He is such a jerk. He also spent more time ranting about us than he did lecturing. I don't understand why he bothers in his job if he hates it so much? It's almost as if he is simply there just to deliberately piss us all off. Seriously. If I didn't need his class so much, I would've ditched it by now..."

"Oh it is a required class? That's bad especially when the professor is a butt." Lena wondered what her teachers and professors were liked. "At least you get to go to class. So what has been happening lately in your other classes?"

"Technically it isn't a required class," Luh'ciia said inbetween mouthfuls, "But I need to do it to get enough credits to pass this year of my course. My other classes are literally 'Meh'...One of the lecturers made the whole class fall asleep because he speaks in such a monotonous voice. Another is also a hateful guy who is rumoured to be have links to some far right group. I would believe it as he keeps muttering that he hates Communists or something. Another professor is just plain insane. I think he'll end up murdering the whole class one of these days. He is like..."

Luh'ciia circled a finger around her ear in the universal crazy sign gesture.
"...yeah that insane. And one professor is just out right dangerous. He almost electrocuted himself and the whole class during an experiment..."

Lena's tail poofed out like a bottlebrush. "Whoa! Are all professors like this here!? I mean back home, none of those people would be allowed to teach a class. We have teachers and professors who want to teach and who make learning fun and get the students involved in the lecture. I thought it would be like that here!"

"Oh don't worry about it. I was just moaning about the worst professors and teachers here," Luh'ciia said, "Most of them are fine and won't actually cause you any harm. I'm just really unlucky."

Luh'ciia paused.
"That reminds me of a funny story regarding that one time we pranked that asshole Chemistry professor by...oh no! I shouldn't mention that incident...too rude to say here..." Luh'ciia giggled.

"Oh okay." Lena then asked, "So, what is your favorite class?" She then offered some sweet and sour chicken to Luh'ciia.

Luh'ciia happily accepted the offer of food from Lena.
"My favourite? Probably the practical elements of the Chemistry class. The lab sessions. Not the lectures, which has that annoying professor. Failing that, I like the elective class I'm in, which is Basic Computer Science. Never really understood them so it's nice to have someone go into how they work."

"I see. I don't even know what class to have as my favorite as I'm still excused from my classes. I mean do they do that here often? Well, if you like I need some more drawings for my art class. My art professor still expects me to turn in my artwork whether I'm excused or not. Ella, you can model too. And I don't think that Chow Mein went to your thighs or anything." Lena laughed. "So, Luh'ciia would you like to join us for jogging tomorrow."

"Sorry, got other commitments," Luh'ciia replied, "Much as I would like to join you. I got classes in the morning...first lecture of the day is that Chemistry professor..." Luh'ciia frowned and her ears drooped slightly.

Lena nodded. "Okay. I understand. Well, maybe another time, maybe the weekend."

------------------------------

OOC: Timeskip!

Lena had woken up early, having set her alarms to go off at 9:30 in the morning. She gently nudged Ella to wake up, knowing that her roommate would be sleeping like a log.

Lena had already gotten dressed, and was wearing a pair of running shoes, purplish sports bra, and a black tights that reached down a little past her knees. "Hey, Ella. Wake up. It's 9:45 AM. We were going to go jog for a bit remember?"

"Urgh...what...?"
Ella struggled to wake herself on hearing her friends words. The sunlight streaming in from the window seemed to hurt more than normal and despite her knowing what Lena said was true, it still felt annoying. Ella grappled for her cell phone to check the time. The display read 9:46AM.

"Uuuuuhh..." Ella slowly stood up from her bed in a fashion similar to a stereotypical horror film zombie. She sighed and shuffled into the bathroom to clean herself up before grabbing a change of clothes. In contrast to Lena, Ella's "sports clothing" consisted of a loose t-shirt with "University of North Dannistaan Hockey Team" emblazoned on it, some baggy running shorts, a headband, some wristband weights and a pair of worn out trainers. Still yawning, she nodded at Lena.

"Let me guess: you need coffee in order to function in the mornings, huh?" Lena looked at Ella's clothes. "Hm...Nice clothes. Which reminds me: what do people do here for shopping or hanging out? Is there a mall or something nearby?"

"...sorry...yeah...I...I really need some caffeine...but I know too much is bad...so...yeah...um..."

Ella scratched her head to think.
"I dunno actually...I only came here a few days ago so I...haven't really had time to...well...figure out the locale...all I know of is the Student Activity Centre which has a small convenience store there and that's about it..."

Ella yawned.
"Nah...I'm cool...let's do this!"
Somewhere in the outdoor area of the campus
Ella had put on some music from her phone to try to pace themselves as they jogged all around the campus gardens. It was less music and more a tuneless mass of electronic instruments and occasional repeated lyric with a fast beat that was only used because every other tune on Ella's phone was either slow and pondering classical music or some inappropriate cheesy pop song that would've been too distracting to run to. That and jogging in silence was too difficult for Ella for some reason. As they went up a hill, passing several other joggers, they stopped briefly at the top of a hill to regain their breath.

"Phew...that...was quite some distance..." Ella managed inbetween panting, "Let's try to catch our breath before we...hang on...what the...?"
Ella pointed down the hill. A large protest was being held near the base of the other side. Several banners being held read "We the 99%". Other banners implied that the focus of the protest seemed to be related to the global economy. At the edges of the protest gathering, several security and police officers were standing, preventing the students from getting into the main faculty offices.

"Better keep away from that area," Ella panted as she sat down on the ground.

Lena had to admit that Ella was a pretty good runner, having been able to keep pace with her. Like Ella, the Lobo was out of breath too when they reached the top of the hill. She nodded and sat down for a moment. When Ella pointed out the protestors, she asked, "I guess the global economy is affecting everyone. But you're right, we should keep our distance from them." Lena didn't want to have a repeat of what happened with the two racist punks.

"Good point. Had enough stuff being thrown at us..."

As the pair got up to leave, they were approached by a fellow student.
"Hey ladies! You are concerned about the goings on in the world, right?"
"Sorry mister. My friend and I are jogging and we are about to..." Ella began but was interrupted by the student.
"...Hear me out! We are on the verge of stopping the elite from getting away with forcing the poor to dance to their tune..."
"...uh huh..."
"...we need everyone on the campus to show that we won't allow ourselves to be bullied by the rich! We need to show the faculty that we can't keep going on like thi..."
"...sorry man, we really need to be on our way!"

Ella and Lena continued jogging to the "music" that blared out from Ella's cellphone. The student tried shouting back after them something about the rich "buying out land to stop them jogging and therefore they have to join in the protest" or something similar. Ella refused to pay any attention and focused on running down the hill at a steady pace.

Lena also told the student to leave them alone. When he didn't she growled at him, which made him to leave her alone but caused him to go after Ella.

After they had put some distance between them, Lena sighed. "Boy what a pain. Back home, we don't have things like this. Usually students read books, surf the web, or talk with other students and teachers about politics and stuff like this. We Vulshainians don't like lobbyists. Too loudmouthed and hypocritical for our tastes."

"Agreed," Ella replied as they rounded a corner, "At least back home, Dannistrian student activists only go around bothering people if they show any interest in the subject they are lobbying about. Here they do get a bit obnoxious."

As they jogged along the track, they came across another line of security staff, including Sha'la.
"You two again?" Sha'la asked as they both slowed down, "Well, sorry guys. Can't let you down this path."
"Why not?" Ella asked.
"Some of those student protesters have decided to go too far with they protest and started an 'Occupy Shiro' camp down the path. For safety reasons we can't let anyone down here until they have been moved out."

Sha'la pointed towards a large cluster of tents, caravans and other assorted makeshift shelters and accommodation on the garden grounds.
"That's weird, we were just by here earlier and there was no one there," Ella exclaimed. Sha'la nodded.
"The protesters move in quickly when there was barely anyone around. We tried to move them on but they outnumbered us. Now, as much as I would like to beat seven shades of brown out of them for blocking a public path, the security chief wanted us all to hang back until the police arrive, then it would be up to them."

Sha'la sighed and put her hands on her hips.
"I don't know which is giving me a bigger headache. The hangover I have from last night, or those guys."

Sha'la turned around to look at the protest camp, then smirked.
"Man, if this was back home, we'd have simply shifted them straight to the police station, no questions asked..."

"I see. I was just telling Ella that back home in Vulshain, we don't have these kinds of things happen either. Lobbyists aren't well liked in my country. Too hypocritical and annoying for our tastes. So, Sha'la how is everything? I've been wondering when your ex-boyfriend will be back in town." Lena wondered if that was the right thing to say. "I mean it would be nice to see you two back together again," she added.

"Oh? Trying to make moves on my toy?" Sha'la asked in her usual teasing sing-song voice, raising an eyebrow in mock surprise before letting off a haughty, yet playful laugh, "To be honest, I don't really know about when he'll be back. And I don't really care if you want to date him or not. I just like teasing him. But yeah seriously, I don't know when he'll be back. Last time I heard, he may be working somewhere else back home. Rumour has it he is in the elite AC Mech school they run back home as some sort of tutor. I don't know anything apart from that. They don't tell us grunts squat!"

Sha'la paused as her portable radio crackled for her attention.
"Sierra Charlie to Sierra Lima One, over."
Sha'la frowned.
"What do those idiots want this time?...Sierra Lima One, go ahead over."
"Police advise camp cannot remain in area and are en route to assist in eviction. What's your strength, over?"
Sha'la frowned again.
"Looks like we are in for a fight...normally I don't mind but when it is in a non-dive bar situation and without proper support..." she grumbled as she put the radio to her mouth again, "...our strength is 4 men including myself...we are holding position by western fountains, over."
"Understood, standby for further instructions, over"
"Copy. Sierra Lima One out."

Sha'la put the radio away.
"Hoo boy...this is going to get ugly and interesting!" Sha'la rolled her eyes, "I told the security chief we can't evict 200 people with just 4 men. Better hope they send enough police here because this isn't going to be trivial. I might drink a lot, but even I know a crazy situation when I'm intoxicated. They can't seem to tell one when stone cold sober!"

Lena's tail poofed out. "Um..uh...Okay. Thanks! By the way what's he like? I mean is he still a virgin...Why am I asking something like that?"

When she heard what was going on with the protestors, Lena said, "We better leave Ella, before we get excused again, and we have to miss all of our classes till graduation! I do not want that to happen! We already are excused for half the semester!"

"Actually, you're both excused for this entire semester," one of the security guards said.

Lena's eye twitched. "What? What? WHAT!?!? WE ARE EXCUSED THAT LONG! Oh my Den Mother!"

She sighed. "Let's get going Ella. I need something to eat. And Sha'la, you wouldn't happened to have any sake back in your room would you?"

Sha'la laughed so hard that by the time she was finished she had less breath than Ella and Lena after their jogging. When she recovered, she was still occasionally giggling between every word.
"Oh my! Hal'vo hav'nar! You both really need to have a word with the Dean...well yes...Well...I can tell you that...let's just say Kah'lad isn't entirely as shy and uptight as he would like everyone to think..." Sha'la winked for emphasis, "And I'll see to it the very best of my personal stash of Sake gets delivered to your room if want it. I got about 20 different varieties. Just name what you'd like and I'll personally deliver and serve it if you like!" Sha'la grinned.

"Err...yeah..." Ella hesitated, "...so what would you like to eat then Lena?"
