KYN Prompts - Scent

~ooO Scent Ooo~

It did not take long to set up camp. The children gathered twigs, dried wood and forest debris, Jaken assembled the fire and maintained it, Miroku gathered water from a near-by stream, and Sango set about assembling a soup from dried ingredients. Very quickly the rich scent of herbs, spices and tenderizing meats filled the clearing. Kagome was content to sit beside Sesshoumaru who was idly toying with her hair, occasionally lowering his nose to sniff the black silken strands.

While they waited for the soup broth to finish simmering the adults drank green tea and the children hot chocolate made from a powdered mix Kagome had brought from the future. Sesshoumaru appreciatively sniffed the delicate scent of jasmine-scented green tea before consuming the hot liquid. He did not like eating human food but he enjoyed the variety of teas and drinks the miko prepared for her pack. The scents and flavours were always most intriguing.
