Appearances in the log
Last shift for Fuhua Shen, who joined Drive half a century ago. The crew line the corridor and knock wrenches on the rails.
The youngest aboard is now Ember Jaber, minutes old, asleep. 960 souls.
A daughter, Polina Jaber, born in the Ring C infirmary to Efua Jaber and Fuhua Shen. Mother and child are well.
A wedding late in the second watch. Fuhua Shen, Drive; Efua Jaber, Ecology. The ship approves in its way: the lights held steady throughout.
Fuhua Shen chooses Drive — or it chooses him; the elders disagree cheerfully.
A son, Fuhua Shen, born in the Ring A infirmary to Natalya Shen and Stanley Fossum. Mother and child are well.
