I'm not experienced at ice so I was curious. So your belay anchor is 2 screws linked with a cord, and each of the twin(?) ropes separately cloved into a screw. Then some locking quickdraws to run the twin ropes out on to the next pitch. Just curious, not commentary.

the belay anchor is 2 screws (but i am loading the axes) the 2 screws are connected with a 6mm Kevlar sling which is set in a mobile belay configuration (normally i do the non-mobile/non extensible) there i opted for a mobile. when the leader start the next pitch he passed the rope in the apex of the belay (the mobile loop) and again in the upper screw (i do not do it) he liked to be short there....his choice)
concerning me (the belayer) as i do not load the belay (i am in the axes) i secure myself to the 2 screws with a clover on each screw carabine... else i would go with one rope in the apex of the belay....
else?
