The night in The Strip. drinking, gambling, lust, it was all in the air... "And I deserve myself a "me" time now, I sure do huh?", a man with traditional japanese robes, fox's ears and tail, sat lone at a table outside a bar. In a hand a bottle of saké, and in another a small cup from which he sipped regularly. "A toast for Toh's small improvements in his spells!", and he drank for himself, all alone at the table, talking to himself in thought.

Well today wasn't exactly going as Ruby had hoped. It was his first time on the island and yeah, it didn't start off too great.

When he got out the teleporters he immediately started feeling the effects of being on this new and strange environment that wasn't Earth but kinda still part of Earth? They still weren't too clear on how any of this dimensional travel stuff works. Anyway, the atmosphere of the island initially made Ruby feel a bit dizzy, lightheaded, and nauseated. It was probably one of the chemicals in the atmosphere or something. They were able to get adjust to Earth's gravity really easily at least.

Ruby's body was able to adapt a bit so he didn't stay feeling terrible for too long. Once he was feeling somewhat better he immediately got to exploring and job hunting.
Of course, the first places he checked was the places Evie had told him about.

Ruby spent most of the day looking for a job, getting a bit lost, and randomly feeling dizzy. It was fucking terrible and he hated it.

He just made it to The Strip side of town and-
Fuck. He would be enjoying the sites if he wasn't feeling like shit right now. He had to stop and take a minute to just...do nothing.
Well almost nothing, he spotted some type of...furry looking human guy at a table outside and decided to pop into his head to ask a few questions.

"H-" Oops his telepathic link cut out a bit when he felt dizzy again. "Sorry...about that. I need some help."

He stopped between sips once someone probed into his mind. "Hm? Who's it?", the light flushing of his face disappeared almost instantly, as Umiko's alertness kicked in. There were however a couple things Ruby would be able to notice: the first is that Umiko's mind was like an open book, it was possible to see memories from four centuries ago still fresh somehow... And the second is that there was an echo when he responded to the alien's query.

Umiko too used of telepathic communication.

Ruby floated slowly over to the person he was linked with and weakly waved his hand. He was swaying a bit and couldn't keep on a straight path as he made his way over to this fox eared man.

Okay wait. This was a new feeling that was making Ruby feel extremely not great. There was a bit too much going on in this person's mind at once. A lot more than he was used to so the telepathic link just abruptly stopped as Ruby was trying to get his bearings.

When Ruby finally was feeling a bit better he reestablished the link and just focused on the thoughts that was actively interacting with him. "It's me. I'm sorry, I thought I was going to collapse. My body is getting used to this planet or...dimensional plane's atmosphere."

He stopped at the table and leaned on it have some support in case he got another sudden dizzy spell. "I'm still learning English so it's easier for me to communicate like this."

Ruby just huffed and just shook his head. "I'm Ruby."

"Oh, so not a demon or mystic being or the like... Just an alien. Okay, I was a little bit nervous there. I know myself better than any of my masters...", with that he got up from his seat and gestured Ruby to have it instead. Now relieved, Umiko took a good sip of saké, giving a slow exhale, responding with the echo caused by their abilities combined, "And I'm Umiko Mikadzuki, but you probably know that already."

Ruby shook their head at that. Demon? He was becoming familiar with this demon word. It wasn't the first time someone mistook him for a demon hear. "No. Just an Alien."

Ruby looked a bit surprised when Umiko got up from his seat and smiled and carefully sat down in it. "Oh wow, such a gentleman~" Ruby's voice giggled in Umiko's head.

"You didn't have to give me your seat but I appreciate the gesture."

Ruby looked a bit excited actually now that he wasn't feeling like shit. He tilted his head and looked Umiko up and down as he was just absorbing all this knowledge about him. This was a really great feeling. Ruby continued smiling and checking him out as he just explored his thoughts. He was now also learning Japanese. Niiiice. "I'm so glad I ran into already Umiko."

He was really trying hard to resist touching Umiko. Like reaaaaally hard. This telepathic connection he had with him was just hitting Ruby's mind in all the right spots. He haven't had a proper connection like this since he left his home world.

"You have stong telepathic abilities. I haven't experienced anything this good in a while." He eyed Umiko's ears and was going to ask a question if they were they caused of that but he already knew the answer to that. This. Felt. Amazing.

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't be acting like this. Um. Right. Umiko. Oh....fuck hold on." And just like that Ruby had to disconnect again to take a breather, relax, and recompose himself.

"I needed to disconnect. You're mind is overwhelming." Ruby spoke in perfect Japanese without even realizing it.

"I'm in high spirits tonight. Surely you have seen why.", he once again assumed given his own flaws. He was so proud of his only apprentice... "Me? Strong telepathic abilities? Not really, can't shut down access to my mind... But I do have the ability to project my voice into anyone around me. So when you "hear me", so does everyone within a range."

"Really? Well... I guess not everyone can be used to four hundred years worth of memory being there, like an open book.",
he gave a low laugh, "What are you feeling exactly? Think I could mutually transform you into a form adapted to life on Earth so you have an easier time?"

Oh. Ruby knew exactly why he was in high spirits. Ruby thought Umiko would have protested a bit to this or would have been slightly embarrassed but no, he wasn't. Ruby just smiled knowing and chuckled a bit.

"So, you are just more susceptible to my abilities then. That makes more sense. I never developed the ability to fully mind read so this is a good experience." Ruby was still talking in Japanese.

The fact Ruby knew exactly what he was talking about doing to them was a great feeling. This mutually transform thing he could do was interesting but he didn't want him to do anything weird to his body. It also probably would stop his body from adapting naturally.

"No. My body will adapt eventually. I believe that will just stop the process if you do that." He continued again in Japanese, still not realizing it.

"Are you okay with me linking again? I want to do it again. It felt....good. Learning all those things so fast." Ruby's tail swished seductively back and forth in his seat as he crept his hand closer to Umiko's.

"At least it wasn't overpowering too much, I'd say. A sudden surge of centuries of memories can be too much for some, hurtful even.", Umiko remarked and took yet another long sip, a light flush taking his face.

With a thoughtful nod he agreed to Ruby's desire to not be transformed, remarking "True, adapting to something new often takes pushing further, sometimes even if it hurts.", and he knew that well, after all he did have sprained his ankles or stumbled to the ground when trying to walk on two legs for the first time in his life... And look where he is now: walks just like any human, and can even balance himself on one foot really well...

"Sure, if it isn't hurting either of us and if it proves helpful, go ahead. Just be mindful you might see in-depth details of my relationship with my masters, fufufu...", Umiko held a fox-like smug after saying that, his tail wagging excitedly.

"It is overpowering but, I enjoy that feeling. My people are psychic beings. We love seeking out others with telepathic abilities and great minds like yours."

Okay, he was just going to brace himself. Ruby relaxed some more and closed his eyes. He then telepathically linked back to Umiko's mind.

He needed to just focus on....something. Okay not those dirty thoughts; he just chuckled at seeing that. Ruby just tried his best on focusing on Umiko's voice. He then reopened his eyes and just leaned back in his seat and crossed his legs.

"This was unexpected. I should be looking for jobs but here I am relaxing and talking to a handsome gentlemen like yourself." His voice echoed once again in Umiko's mind. Ruby then chuckled as he took out his phone to check the time. He supposed....he could take a short break.
