Appearances in the log
Last shift for Elsie Kingsley, who joined Archive & Schools half a century ago. The crew line the corridor and knock wrenches on the rails.
A wedding on the first watch. Elsie Kingsley, Archive & Schools; Zaid Abadi, Life Systems. The ship approves in its way: the lights held steady throughout.
