Prompt: Chestnuts


Evergreen turned out her pockets and laid the contents on the table, the brown nuts rolling along the surface and only stopped at the edge by her teammates' quick reflexes.

"Quite the haul this year, Ever," Laxus observed, as the flood of chestnuts failed to recede as Evergreen continued to add even more to the pile from her overburdened pockets.

"You know me," she sighed in relief now that she was finally free of them all, "I can't stop myself from picking them up when I see them."

"This is an absurd number of chestnuts, though," Freed muttered.

"Lucy helped a bit," Evergreen explained, understanding beginning to shine in her teammates' eyes.
