 A deal of time had passed since Eon had arrived on this strange island, and he still didn't know much about it. It seemed whenever he went to ask someone about this place, they would have to leave.
Now he sat beneath a tree, watching the dark clouds gather in the sky. His blood hummed in response to the energy in the air. Soon, it would storm. A small smile touched his lips at the thought, a storm would be nice.

 Forrest stood on a wobbly branch, fixing his tarp that had managed to fall down, his antennae twitching, anticipating the storm.
"Oh d-d-d-dear..." he stuttered to himself, the tarp being particularly cruel to him. He wanted to be out enjoying the little time he had before the rain, but he needed to be sure his shelter was secure first.

Eon's ears perked as the breeze carried the sound of a voice to his ears. He started to wonder who be out during a time like this, then remembered that his friend lived around here. Deciding to go pay this friend a visit, he pushed to his feet and began to head towards the source of the sound.

Forrest continued to fuss with the tarp. It felt rather like a chinese finger trap: the more he messed with it the more difficult it became to work with.
"Perhaps if I still knew string shot this wouldn't be so difficult..." he grumbled, nervousness turning into frustration. The branch jiggled beneath him, the butterfree losing his balance. He fell, still holding the tarp which came down with him.
"No! This is b-b-bad! Very b-b-bad!" he cried on the ground as he held the tarp. He hadn't the time to set it all back up again.

The scene Eon stepped into was not one he was expecting. His Butterfree friend was on the ground with the "roof" to his home. Meaning that he would be without shelter when the storm finally hit. His red eyes scanned the scene. "Are you alright?"

Forrest jumped up, startled a bit by Eon's entrance. He turned, throwing the tarp off of him and gave a nervous smile.
"Eon! N-no, I'm f-f-fine...Just a little h-housing p-problem..." he hit the tarp with one paw then shrugged, "It likes to f-fall d-d-down on occasion."

"Have you thought of seeking a more stable shelter?" Eon let his gaze travel over the tarp, finding the material rather flimsy.

"L-like what?" Forrest looked down at the tarp. He didn't see too much of a problem with it, it kept the weather away.

"An overhang or a hollowed out tree?" Eon circled around Forrest and the tarp. With his appearance and the overcast of the clouds, it would almost seem he was circling in a predatory fashion. Really, he was just surveying the situation. The rumble of thunder could be heard, the storm was closing in.

Forrest thought of the enclosed space of a hollowed out tree, his eyes widening slightly at the thought of such a smal space, of being enclosed and the darkness swallowing him. He shook his head, fiddled for a moment with his scarf, and took a deep breath...out of the question. As for the overhang he wasn't sure where he'd find one, and the forest had always been the most welcoming home he'd ever had.
"W-well...it's just I r-rather like being higher in the t-trees is all." he paused, "Perhaps j-just a st-st-sturdier roofing material would b-be more suitable though?" He heard another rumble of thunder, his concern of the oncoming rain increasing.
((I just noticed the yellow thing on Forrest's neck. Butterfree have no spiffy yellow markings so I'm assuming it's a scarf, like Ash's Butterfree or something...))

"Perhaps..." Eon mulled over the thought, pondering if the humans would be able to provide such material. Either way though, it was to late to think about such things now. For now, they just needed some kind of shelter. "Do you have a place to escape the rain?"

Forrest shook his head. Without his tarp he was homeless and at the very mercy of the storm. Well....he had been previously invited to stay at some cave, but the prospect of an enclosed space, not to mention an enclosed space underground, was unappealing. He'd rather face the rain than have a panic attack.
"You d-don't n-n-need to worry about m-me. I'll m-manage." he gave a faint, halfhearted smile.

Eon frowned at Forrest's words, though it was hidden by his face mask. Rather than acknowledge them, he looked to the sky. "I know of a large overhang where the sea meets the cliffs, it should be able to provide shelter for you during the storm."

Forrest could tell from Eon's persistence to find him a nice dry place that he was concerned. His smile turned a little more true then. He was glad, to have someone, someone who cared. Someone he could call a friend.
"If y-you insist," he finally replied. He looked up at the sky though, still a bit worried about the impending storm, "B-but we'll have to g-go quickly. S-s-so lead the w-way."

Rather than waste time, Eon nodded and started to trot in the direction of the cliffs. His whole body hummed with energy, ready to welcome the storm. For him, storms were a rarity in the desert, but her they were much more common. It almost felt like he was overdosing on an addictive drug, all that energy crackling in the air with each storm. "It is not far."
