Lucien approached the source of the smell, curiosity driving him forward. Brigantiea followed, covering her nose due to her sharp sense of smell making her uncomfortable.
"Are you alright? We can stop if it's bothering you," he offered.
"It's fine. You look like you're having fun, like a little kid," she grinned.
Lucien pouted, "I'm not. I just think, if what I suspect is right, we can relax there. It might even become one of our secret spots."
Brigantiea smirked and whispered in his ear, "To have sex, right?"
He laughed, "Well, if you put it that way."
They continued walking toward the scent, and soon Lucien noticed the air growing warmer and the presence of fog. As they got closer, a small lake with warm, steaming water came into view, fed by a small waterfall.
"This is an onsen!" Lucien exclaimed.
"Onsen?" Brigantiea asked, her nose now used to the smell. She didn't need to cover it anymore.
