Chapter 5 - "Icebreaker"

The senior crew meet for the first time. They are aware of each other from the profiles they have been given upon assignment, but now they face each other in awkward silence ahead of the briefing. Schafer decides to initiate an icebreaker, a tradition he has always loathed but nonetheless appreciates. Humanity might have conquered the stars, but it still flounders with social introductions.

I'm making a book blanket this year; that means a lot of different things, but for me it means crocheting a square inspired by the cover of each book I finish in 2025. I'm assembling them quarterly, so this is the Jan-Feb-Mar quarter. The first photo shows the assembled squares, and the second photo is the books laid out in the same positions. #bookblanket #books #reading #crochet The authors and titles: Melissa Albert, The Hazel Wood; Ezra Claytan Daniels, Upgrade Soul; Lauren Groff, The Vaster Wilds; John Wood Sweet, The Sewing Girl’s Tale; Maja Lunde, The End of the Ocean; Fiona Mozley, Elmet; NoViolet Bulawayo, We Need New Names; Paterson Joseph, The Secret Diaries of Charles Ignatius Sancho; H.
