What does it feel like for a butterfly to emerge from is chrysalis? Is it the best stretch imaginable? Or is it slimy, itchy, and uncomfortable?
Or maybe it's both. And as it dries it's new wings? Does it know what's possible?
Does it know the threats, innately? Can it imagine flight?

The group project has a goal. That goal means working with people you might not have picked.
