"Why are we here again?" It wasn't his first choice but he had agreed to it and now he was stuck hiking through the rain forest with the young man in front of him.

A smile curved up on the lips of the young man before him. He stopped and looked at the other behind him. "We're here looking for butterflies remember? We might find some new ones, or just ones we've never seen before."

The older man with tanned skin frowned. "I suppose that makes sense, but what if we don't?"

Yuugi only grinned more, shaking his head. "Well, then it'll just be a nice hike through the rain forest." There was silence for a moment and the other had gone back to checking the map when the younger one stopped walking. "Look!" He pointed up, pointing at a black and purple butterfly just hovering above them.

"Alright butterfly enthusiast, what type of butterfly is that?"

"It's called a Periander Metalmark or a Variable Metalmark. It's scientific name is Rhetus periander. It's native in Central and South America." He smiled and looked over at Atemu. "But it really is lovely isn't it?"

"Yeah.." He nodded once, but he wasn't looking at the butterfly.
