Chapter Text
Captain Archer stood at the head of the table.
“You’re probably wondering why I brought all of you here today,” he said.
“That sounds ominous,” Hoshi leaned over and whispered to Travis. Travis tried not to shiver at her freezing breath.
The captain cleared his throat and looked at Hoshi, reminding her of his superior hearing. “As you know, we are more then halfway through December. That means Christmas is right around the corner. I’ve decided to initiate a bonding exercise.” The captain ignored Trip’s joke about what sort of “bonding exercise” he would like to do.
“First, I will set aside crafting supplies from the cargo bays into a single corner in cargo bat one. The crew will have free access to them. I expect you to cooperate with each other. There are a few tables in the cargo bay to craft on. You will work together on whatever projects you desire.” He ignored Trip’s next joke about what sort of project he desired.
“I will assign you each two people to give a craft to on Christmas. I expect these gifts to be creative. They don’t have to be too complex, but I expect some effort. You are all dismissed.”
