What time is it?

Felix's eyes snapped open to blurry strobe lights and movement, a kaledeiscope of gyrating, silhouettes gathered around him. The music was deafening, rattling his insides, throwing him off kilter. His stomach growled, angry, empty and wanting to vomit. Before he knew it, a pair of hands held his shoulders and pulled him upright, managing to make him dizzier. Felix clutched the sofa for support and pulled himself up, finally giving in and vomiting at the back of the it. Through the music, he heard familiar laughter. He wiped his mouth with his sleeve and frowned. Gross.

Felix melted into the sofa and clutched his aching stomach. Before he knew it, he was pulled into Dorian's lap, arms around his middle. He felt his face flushed. They argued for a bit, par for the course for them, he supposed, but he could barely remember anything he said as soon as the words left his mouth — he did, however, remember Dorian being snippy about him on Jaegerbombs, and Felix remembered being very pissed off about it. In the end, Felix pushed himself off Dorian's lap and left the club.

The fresh air was better. Well. He still felt like shit, but it was a huge improvement. The place was — Oh! That was why it was so blurry. He lost his glasses. He scrubbed his face. Inebriated, high and blind. Perfect. Felix walked at the end of the sidewalk, trying to get bars for his phone so he could call. Hm. He was pissed off at Dorian, even if it was over a pretty trivial thing, and he didn't have any other friends. Toby? ...Ha. Not in this state.

Sighing, he decided he was going to call his friends. His hand shook and his phone fell — shit! — right into a drain.

Felix slapped his face and groaned.

That's just perfect, then! Just peachy!

Huffing, he started walking to the mess of neon lights, hoping he'll be lucky enough to find a bus station. He lit a cigarette to calm his nerves. At least I have this.

It was a beautiful night out and Kaya had decided to enjoy it. It reminded her of home without her needing to be there but on the island she had come to love and enjoy so much. Away from the problems of being the daughter of a demon lord, away from the 'responsibility' of being said daughter. It was with a deep intake of breath and a lengthening of her stride as she felt the need to feel more of the nights air on her skin that made her begin a long jogging stride. her clothes shifting into dark sports bra and silk 'sweat pants' as she began her run through the streets.

To Kaya her pace was as strenuous as a light jog, to everyone else they would notice that no true human could run at such speeds for long lengths of time. in the night with her skin color and clothing she was nothing more then a darker shadow racing through the night. Kaya began to grin at the familiar exhilaration at the exercise she had been lax to do while she still went to the academy but now found more simple enjoyment of just letting her hooves take her where they wished her to go.

It got much later into the night before Kaya began to feel herself tire and she was heading back to her shop through the Strip when she closed her eyes for a second to just let the air blow against her...when she impacted something...no some ONE! with that realization she immediately began to do damage control before they had even moved more then a couple of inches to the ground as the two of them began to fall.

First she practically wrapped herself around the 5' 11" frame with her much taller 6' 9" and oriented their fall so she would end up on bottom, her skin could take the beating it was now about to receive. When they rolled Kaya did her trained best to keep herself on bottom while the rolled/skidded to a halt, she felt minor cuts on the top most layer of her silky scales on her back and left side but so long as she didn't hurt the person who...now that she could think about it, she had pressed into her chest.

She released her arms from around them almost immediately, a small pang of something at the back of her mind told her she should be doing more and she smothered that as it came to her fore mind with practiced ease. "Are you Ok?" Her voice she noticed was very worried for who she practically ran over in her incompetence. "I am SO sorry! I did not see you there!"

Was he still at The Strip? He wasn't sure. His vision had gotten less neon, and it was very dark. Felix could barely see anymore, and any hope of finding the bus station was now gone. If he were lucky, he could find a payphone, and give up his pride by asking someone at the police station to pick him up. It was better than passing out at a sidewalk and getting mugged by a random hobo. His walk slowed to, well, he was dragging his feet on the ground.

He didn't have much time to brace himself as his entire world shook. He could barely stand upright, but now everything was rattling, making him dizzy. As soon as they stopped, he quickly processed that there was someone underneath him, and rolled off them to vomit on the sidewalk. It was worse than earlier, all his drinks and then some, and after which he pressed himself against the side of a nearby building, trembling intensely. He pushed his hair back.

Normally, Felix was patient, and kind, and understanding, and all that lying bullshit he fed people at work so they could get off his fucking back. But he'd had a shitty night all night, and his entire body felt like it was protesting to existing. Could this night get any WORSE? He just wanted to rip the person apart to shreds and shove their face into his vomit. He felt nothing but hate at the moment. Hate, hate, hate.

"What the hell is wrong with you!? You're in a crowded fucking area! The fuck are you thinking, colliding into someone like that!?"

"I didn't mean to collide into you. and I'm sorry!" She had cringed when he had vomited on the side walk and stood on the side of the building. Kaya was praying that she hadn't broken anything in him, sudden collisions were not a healthy thing for humans to go through. After she tried apologizing again she felt something tickling the back of her mind but she brushed it away again, now wasn't the time for that was her thoughts as she tried to move forward and place a hand on his shoulder.

"But are you ok? You did vomit and I don't think that's normally a healthy reaction." She looked around again trying to see the people he was talking about but...if anything she couldn't see anyone...and this was also a sparsely light area in the strip in the first place. The clubs and other such night time proclivities of humans were a bit away, How far did this man walk if he thought this was still the more populated sections?

Still looking around she tried to find someone that MIGHT be looking for the man but couldn't hear or see anyone other then this man...and he smelled odd. Normally humans had a more clean smell and this human definitely didn't have the under smell of cleanliness...it was... smoke? she had smelled it before and wasn't quite sure were at the moment. "Um sir...do you know where you are right now? You seem a bit more disoriented then our tumble would normally incur..."

"You think?" he asked, sarcasm heavy. He thumped his chest and went into a massive coughing fit. His mouth tasted like shit. "I'm at the Strip. The hell did you think I was doing? Playing hopscotch? I just drank 5 Jaegerbombs because my shit of an ex said I couldn't. Or. Wasn't supposed to. Look, the details aren't important, what's relevant is that my stomach is fucking killing me."

He scrubbed at his face again, tears forming at the edges of his eyes, out of frustration than anything. His eyeliner was smudged to hell and back. He didn't care. He wiped his mouth and got up on wobbly feet, trying to catch his breath. His chest hurt. Ahh, his lungs were never in the best condition.

"I'm at the Strip. Other than that, no, I lost my glasses and my phone at some point. This is the last time I'm going to a club, even if it's a 'model party open bar'." Christ! That didn't even sound appealing to him, in retrospect. He'd already dated a supermodel, and it was like caring for a temperamental toddler. He pinched the bridge of his nose. "Can you point me in the direction of... the main fucking street? Thanks."

Kaya rolled her eyes at the man as she began to move closer to him. "Yeah, like I really care for the strip myself. Hell I'm an attractive demoness of Amazonian height who gets drunk from a thimble of raspberry schnapps. I was just on a jog back to my shop and most people get out of my way when I'm running and you just happened to be in my path while I was...blinking."

With a sigh and hearing how messed up he was without phone or glasses apparently she moved over and put a hand on his shoulder. the movement rubbing the raw scales on her left side of her body making her wince a little. "Look, as an apology how bout I try to get you home? I know I can't really help with getting your phone or glasses back but I want to make sure you get back safe seeing as how I did run into you and not the other way around. I can always get back to my shop later." Thinking about it she tried to open a portal near by and found that it took more concentration then it usually did to open it.

With another sigh she hoped it was just the proximity to the main street of the strip and all the energies from high and drunk people. "Where do you live? We can start working our way there."

Felix squinted at her. He was way, way too drunk to even begin to piece together the logic of what she was saying, or what she was even referring to. Was she saying it was embarrassing to be in the Strip? Why did she even bother passing through here, then? Was she saying she was allergic to alcohol? It was like when Dorian rambled about business ventures. I don't know any of the chemicals you mean, Dorian.

He blinked blearily. He was so tired.

Felix would normally take on such a kind offer, but alcohol had a way of making him ornery. He could, logically, process what this meant. He was reacting to out of proportion. He didn't want this person knowing where he lived. He had enough of her.

He started walking out of the alley, sighing. He did need some form of help, though. "Can you just take me to the bus station? Thanks."

"Um....sure...." Where the fuck is a bus stop! Kaya thought to herself in a small panic as she looked around. Kaya never had payed attention to public transit, when she needed to go anywhere she had been able to use portals to get there. "But! So we can get you onto the right bus....where do you live?"

By my Lucy's tears why do I feel like I'm drunk! Something about the situation was affecting Kaya and she needed to rid herself of the source, thinking that it was the main street of the Strip she began to help this man away from it hopefully towards where he lived while her heart rate began to increase in a small panic as to how her head was slightly swimming.

Oh, there were the Strip's lights from this angle. That was promising. Felix followed that direction, and opted to go completely the opposite way in hopes of finding a fucking bus stop. When asked again where he lived, he felt kind of nauseous. He did not want her to know.

"The City," he said vaguely. "Near the working district. The bus stop at the very end of the Strip should take me to where I need to go. That's all. Do you know where that is, or did you seriously jog at an unfamiliar part of town?"

He didn't notice Kaya seemed off. First of all, he didn't care. Second, if he did, he couldn't fucking see shit because his glasses were fucking gone! "I think that blurry red light in the distance is... Gomorrah? That's promising. Can you take me at least to the front of Gomorrah?"

Kaya looked up at the red sign that the man was pointing at and she had to squint a little herself to see it properly. "Yeah, that looks like Gomorrah" Is it because I'm holding this drunk man next to me? Is that why I'm feeling drunk? Kaya thought to herself as the tried to keep herself from slipping down a certain slippery moral slope of her own creation. "And I think I'm finding out that I can get a contact drunk from people..." She whispered to herself but it was probably still loud enough to be heard by the man she was helping.

this was not turning into a fun situation, and it probably wouldn't get much nicer the longer she was out on the strip. "I have been busy the past couple months with my own shop and I try to avoid staying long on the main street of the Strip. Most people think..." Kaya let out a small yelp of surprised pain as she felt someone slap her ass, her tail flicked out and whipped across that particular person's hand with their own small yelp. "...that i'm a prostitute." She sighed before taking more the of man's weight on her and she moved them a bit faster. "So, I don't know bus schedules. But don't the buses stop running before..."

Kaya trailed off as her internal clock thought of what time it was. "...3 am?"
