"Woah! There are chestnuts all over the place! It's a forest of All-You-Can-Eat-Mont-Blanc for us! Let's get picking then-OW! Fungya! Those chestnuts pricked my paw!" ɢʀɪᴍ ᴇxᴄʟᴀɪᴍꜱ ɪɴ ᴘᴀɪɴ.
"I guess we can't pick them up with bare hands."
"And then we have to bring 200 chestnuts back to Trey-Senpai...We can't carry all of that unless we have a basket."
"The Botanical Garden probably has whatever we need inside."
'Then why didn't we go there earlier...!?'

"Woah! It's so much bigger on the inside." "Woah! It's so big!" ᴀᴄᴇ ᴀɴᴅ ɪ ᴇxᴄʟᴀɪᴍᴇᴅ.
"We should be able to find the necessary tools here. Let's split up." ᴅᴇᴜᴄᴇ ꜱᴜɢɢᴇꜱᴛᴇᴅ.
"I'll go right then." "And I'll head left. Grim, Azuma-San, you guys can check the inner garden."
"Eh...? But I wanna go with one of you-! Nevermind...Let's go Grim."

"Hey. Look at this! There's a bunch of fruit over here! And they smell so good!" ɢʀɪᴍ ᴘᴏɪɴᴛꜱ ᴛᴏᴡᴀʀᴅꜱ ᴛʜᴇ ʙᴜꜱʜᴇꜱ.
"Don't eat anything. I have no idea what these are."
"Ow."
'Huh...?'
"Oi . You've got some nerve to step on someone's tail without apologizing." ᴀ ᴛᴀʟʟ ʟɪᴏɴ-ᴇᴀʀᴇᴅ ɢᴜʏ ꜱᴀɪᴅ ᴀꜱ ʜᴇ ꜱᴛᴏᴏᴅ ᴜᴘ.
'Hey...He looks familiar.'
"Are you the caretaker of this place? You don't seem like it." ɢʀɪᴍ ꜱᴛᴀᴛᴇᴅ.
"I was right in the middle of a nice nap, then my tail gets stepped on. This sucks."
"Sorry..." 'But it's partially your fault.'
"You...Ah. You're the herbivore that the mirror said you can barely use magic. You were also the one who wasn't able to dodge the furball's flames."
"Geez. I said I'm sorry...Huh? Wait, what are you doing...?" ʜᴇ'ꜱ ꜱɴɪꜰꜰɪɴɢ ᴍᴇ!?
"Hm...?" ʜᴇ ᴄᴏɴᴛɪɴᴜᴇꜱ ꜱɴɪꜰꜰɪɴɢ ᴍᴇ.
'This feels so weird...'
"You're a girl, right?"
"How can you tell by my scent!?" ɪ ᴇxᴄʟᴀɪᴍ.
"Hmph. I guess I can let you off the hook this time, Herbivore."

"There you are. It's time for your supplementary lessons today."
"Ugh...here comes the annoying one." ʟᴇᴏɴᴀ ɢʀᴏᴀɴꜱ.
'Should we be leaving...?'
"You already repeated a year Leona-San. If you keep being held back, we're gonna be classmates next year."
"Shut it Ruggie. I don't need lectures from you."
'Yeah, we should leave...'

"That caretaker was really intimidating, y'know." ɢʀɪᴍ ʜᴜꜰꜰꜱ ᴀꜱ ʜᴇ ᴄʀᴏꜱꜱᴇꜱ ʜɪꜱ ᴀʀᴍꜱ.
"I don't think he's the caretaker though..."
"We found some baskets and tongs over here!" ᴀᴄᴇ ᴇxᴄʟᴀɪᴍꜱ ᴀꜱ ʜᴇ ᴀɴᴅ ᴅᴇᴜᴄᴇ ʜᴇʟᴅ...ᴀ ᴛᴏɴ ᴏꜰ ʙᴀꜱᴋᴇᴛꜱ.

"Ah that's right! The chestnuts! We won't be able to eat some tarts if we don't get a bunch!"
'I forgot about the chestnuts...!'
"We'll talk later. Let's go!"

"...That's what happened." ɢʀɪᴍ ꜰɪɴɪꜱʜᴇꜱ ᴛᴇʟʟɪɴɢ ᴛʜᴇᴍ ᴏᴜʀ ᴇɴᴄᴏᴜɴᴛᴇʀ ᴡɪᴛʜ ʟᴇᴏɴᴀ.
"There's absolutely no way that was the caretaker." ᴀᴄᴇ ꜱᴛᴀᴛᴇᴅ.
"Now that I think about it, he was wearing a Yellow Vest. Maybe he's from the Banana Dorm?"
"Pfft-" ɪ ᴛʀʏ ᴛᴏ ʜᴏʟᴅ ᴀ ʟᴀᴜɢʜ.

"Alright! This should be enough. Let's bring it back to Trey-Senpai!"
"Nyaha~! I can tell this tart is gonna be awesome!"
