[Asking for help was far from my strong suit. But that was where @TopicOfGossip and I were at. Pushing myself back in the chair behind my desk as I put the phone on speaker and dialed. Drumming my fingers against the desk as the line rang. "Red Apple. You have Sleepy."] >

[ @SwindlingHerV and @PassMeAXanax were useless for the moment. Pinching the bridge of my nose and reaching a hand out for @TopicOfGossip to give the two a moment] I'm going to start in on some calls, it's been awhile since I called in any favors. So we will get somewhere >
