True shock went through Cloudy mind when she saw Nexus. Even though she felt like she shouldn't talk with the gray unicorn, she decided for it. "Nexus, what a surprise to see you here!" the blue pony exclaimed. Cloudy gave a nice friendly smile to her.
Nodding at Tunnel's problem, once her own, Cloudy was happy to explain. "Well it's all about what you're good at. If you are strong, you should be a Snow Plower. If you are careful, you should be a Seed Planter. If you are good at weaving, you should be a Nest Weaver. If you are graceful, you should be an Ice Scorer. If you are good with animals, you should be an Animal Waker. If you are smart or creative, you can stay here with me and be a Problem Solver. And if none of those jobs fit you, there is always shoveling roofs or bringing carts from one place to another."
Rather tired of talking after she relayed that whole things of things a unicorn can do, she stopped for a few seconds, and then continued. "Is there any job you think that you'd like?" Hopefully Nexus would like one of the options, she didn't want her to be stuck with shoveling or dragging carts of snow on her obviously first Winter Wrap Up.

StarShade practically skipped and bounded as he happily followed the rest of the ponies in tan vests towards the glen. Smiling as wide as his mouth allows him to, the black unicorn could not help himself from expressing his excitement through words. And being the lonely colt all his life, it's quite natural of him to be speaking to himself most of the time. But this time he wasn't alone, yet he doesn't seem to care about the change of settings as he blurted out what his heart desired him to speak.
"Oh my, I am so excited. So terribly excited. This is so wonderfully exciting. Aren't you excited?" he said to a mare trotting up beside him, "I know I am!"
The black unicorn continued smiling as he trotted on, adding the sound of hooves with his own set of giggles and chuckles.

Tongs felt the plow wobble. Her bright red eyes grew huge in fear, she had not fully nailed the plow to the cart. She silent cursed her brother for egging her on. The wobbling was now growing to out of control, her hooves slipping on the ice pack beneath the snow.
Look out!She called to the seed sorters as the momentum was too much for her to stop she tried switch her direction as a Brown Mare from before leaped in front of the plow attempting to gather any of the seed packs she could. Tong slammed her feet into the frozen ground and attempted to turn the plow. With the sound of metal clanging and warping in the cold the plow ended its wild ride, right into a boulder hiding beneath the snow drift. This also left Tong splayed out on the cold ground her muscles aching from the throw right at the brown mare's hooves. You should be more careful!She said and pranced away as Tongs stood up shaking her main of the snow.
Assessing the damage to her plow, it was was essentially scrap metal after the crash. She glared as she eyed her brother across the field laughing hysterically on the ground. With hurt pride she pulled the plow from its tangled position on the rock and slowly made her way back into town to repair what she could. Today was not her day.

Oh my, Angel, I think we have a wonderful team this year. Fluttershy smiled as the teams made their way to the warrens. Angel rolled his eyes and hopped in the nearest bush to take a nap. The pastel yellow pegasus turned to the small team that had congregated at the entrance to the glen. Hello, Everypony. We have one of the most important jobs of Winter Wrap Up. Waking ever sleepy little animal from their winter slumber. She smiled bashfully hiding from the more direct eye contact beneath her long mane.If you would please grab your bells, and select a den. Remember we need to wake them GENTLY.

StarShade smiled as widely as he can with the bell in his mouth, listening to every word Fluttershy had to offer.
This is going to be so much fun, thought the black unicorn, swinging his bell from side to side, making it chime, as he wondered what surprises lie before him. I get to finally see the natural fauna living outside of Canterlot. If I am lucky, then I might even find a few cryptids to wake up and watch. Wonderful! He then took note that the Animal Team was of a mixed group, consisting of pegasi, unicorns and earth ponies alike. The variety made the black unicorn smile. Teamwork is always nice, he thought to himself. I wish I was always part of a team.

Strings and the other pegasi reached the birds migrating area. They then rounded up the birds and started leading them back to Ponyville. Strings had been in the Winter Wrap-Up a number of times, but he never did this job. He had usually dealt with the clouds, and he was in the snow melting team once. But he was enjoying this job.
He was soon back in Ponyville and was waiting for Rainbow Dash to give him and the other Pegasi some more instructions. Strings had always admired Rainbow, the way she could fly so quickly and gracefully without even raising a sweat. Strings had always hoped to be able to fly like that, but has always focused on his music more. To him, music is far more important then being able to do a few cool aerial tricks.
