Hyd smiled at Kitchen and Cirrus. "That sounds like a lot of fun!" he grinned. A trio of cleaners, he could already imagine the sorts of fun they could have while getting everything primp and proper! Though his eyes trailed over to where his sister had signed up. He followed after Cirrus and peered at the paper. "Florist?! I want that job!" he squealed in excitement....then remembered he had already put his name down. A huge frown spread across his muzzle and tears almost swelled in his eyes. "I would have thought all the gardening like jobs were gone..... I can't change can I..." he said, his head hanging low.

Kit smiled at his trio of companions, glad to hang out with other colts. His home was filled with fillies so he felt the need for man time on occation. He looked over the the paper the other three were gushing about. Florist? Like his uncle? He made a bit of a face. The only flower he delt with was the white kind you cook with.
"I ain't got much skill with flowers. I think I'll stay on the cleaning team," but he glanced at the others. They seemed to want to change their choice, which would leave him by hisself. Despite not wanting to be alone he smiled softly to the others.
"Iffen ya want to change thats alright."

Cirrus was quiet as Hydrangea wandered over and declared his desire to be a florist. One ear was cocked back and he appeared to be listening to a voice nobody could hear. Then he nodded, looking pleased.
“Then it’s settled. You will go with Knots,” he would have been terrible upset if she had been left alone, “and I will clean with… with…” He glanced around at the larger phony colt, not sure if they had exchanged names or not. “My… big new friend here.”

Knots glanced at Hyd and to Cirrus. She scratched under her cap in thought and offered a solution. "How about we switch places, Hyd?" she offered her brother. "You can have my slot at the Florist if that's what you really want. I don't mind a Janitor job with Kit. It's not like that's what we'll be for the rest of our lives. You and Cirrus can go together and that way Kit will still have someone to pair with."

Hyd tilted his head at Kit, then Cirrus, then the offer his sister had made. He was fighting back tears, a mix of being ashamed he had blurted out wanting to switch and feeling bad he would have left the others alone, and a mix of excitement at his sisters offer. It sounded great to him but he didn't want to upset new friends... .if they were even new friends!
"Really sis? Thats really sweet of you." he cooed, smiling. He blinked at Cirrus and then at Country Kitchen. Was it alright with them? Did they even want that? He wasn't sure at all..."If Cirrus wants... or if ...um.... " he didn't catch that big colts name either. "He wants too...." he said and twisted his muzzle in thinking. Too bad there was no way they could all do their jobs together. Now that would have been a blast!

 Sweet Stripes flies over to the large group of colts and fillies. They seemed to be arguing over a piece of paper? He hovers closer to the where the sheet of paper was. "...W-what is this?"

Cirrus blinked as Knots offered up another option. He really wasn’t fussed as to whether he did the florist job or the cleaning job, as long as he had somebody with him.
“It’s career day…” He answered the newcomer. “We need to decide who does what.”
Then he fell into a long silence, head angled up so that he stared directly at the clouds. Maybe they would help fix the dilemma. Surely they would have some wisdom for him… and if they didn’t feel like being helpful today, eventually one of the Phony’s would come to a decision for them all.
“I don’t mind.” Cirrus said after a while, still staring at the clouds. “Whatever everyone wants to do is fine.”

Moth still hadn't decided what to do, but she wasn't going to let a filly she was getting to know go alone. The boys could take the florist job, if it made them happy. She was sure it would. And besides, how bad could the cleaning gig be? "I'll do the janitor thing with you, Knots! Who knows, maybe we'll get to find some spiders or moths or mites in a corner! And if we're really lucky, we'll get to drive that big floor waxer thing." She tried to sound as enthusiastic as possible. Driving the big floor waxer actually did sound pretty fun.
But a newcomer caught her attention. She turned to the new colt, a (she mentally sighed in envy) fluttery fellow. Lucky flutters, with their antennae! "What he said. Career day! There's some slots down here to try, or you can flutter up and take a look at the lists that are left."

"...O-o-oh! T-t-thank you...." He could barely say the words out of his mouth in front of the colt and filly. Big Sis told him he had to try out new things, it would help him make friends and one day it will stop his stutter. Sweet Stripes hovered up toward the list. It looked like most of the jobs were filled up.
"....T-the messenger job looks interesting...b-but I can't carry heavy packages..."

"Works for me!" Knots said, hitching up her pack tight. "I guess we go and find our bus now. Have fun at the Florist, Hyd!" With that, Knots went looking for the designated buses-turned-taxi, each labeled with construction paper and big lettering. The other little phonies were crowding around and forming lines to get onto them. Well, save for the lonely one at the very end marked "Janitor". Even the bus driver looked lonely. "I hope this isn't an ill omen," she thought out loud.

Hyd wiggled happily. "Have fun sis! I bet you will do great!" he grinned then bounded over to Cirrus and Country Kitchen again. His smile was as wide as it would go as he looked at the two boys wiggling excitedly. "Ready Cirrus? I think our buss is coming." he grinned then looked at Kitchen. Was the big boy still going to clean, he didn't seem like a florist type.

“Wait a moment…” Cirrus said to Hydrangea, his gaze on the new Flutter that had arrived. The small Phony seemed worried about his own choice and Cirrus didn’t want him to be left alone, anymore than he wanted anyone else to be. “There are four of us here now. We should pair off again.” He decided.

"s-s-so what are jobs y-you trying to d-do?" Sweet Stripes was immediately relieved to hear the colt's suggestion.

Kit smiled as everyone seemed to find a solution to what they wanted quickly. He wasn't much help with such things. The draft colt preferred being told what needed to be done then getting it done. The addition of a new phoal only made him happier. "Happy to have ya with us! Lets get to cleaning!"
He was about to saunter towards the bus when Cirrus suggested they split into pairs. "Well we could always split into two kinds of cleaning cleaners. Like one does the dishes while the other vacuums."

"....I-I-I can dust high shelves..." Sweet Stripes was feeling a bit overwhelmed with all these choices of jobs. So many different types of jobs.
