Quantum Vibe

A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly 100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.

What Comes Next [ Mar 18, 2024 ]

The War is Over. We Won.

The war is over, but This Means War has a ways to go. Novo Paolo/Bubbleopolis is still in a nebula/stellar nursery, no one knows what happened to the planet Sharen (center of the Intergalactic Council), and the status of the now-surrendered Invaders is yet to be resolved. What will they do when they learn their homeworld is basically destroyed? Will Alyss and Li be re-united? How about Diana (the real one) and Otto?

These questions will be resolved in the next few weeks, before This Means War part 3 wraps in late May.

After that, I plan to go BACK in time about 400 years, to when Alyss and Li left their home in the Sol System to colonize a new world on the far side of the galaxy. As one might expect, hijinks ensue. New subtitle yet to be determined, start date sometime in around the start of July. Stay tuned!

Nicole: I … I guess you're right. I'm committed now, gotta see this through.
Murphy: That's my girl.
Panel 2
Murphy backs up a bit, but is still solicitous. She has Nicole's attention.
Murphy: So, it's 125 days to 19521 Chaos, you know.
Murphy: I packed a flask of your favorite chocolate whisky in my rucksack.
Panel 3
Nicole and Murphy.
Murphy: How about I fix you a drink and then you can climb into the hibernation bed?
Murphy: I'll mind the store …
Nicole: I'll take the drink, but not the sleep.
Panel 4
Nicole moves back to her couch, slipping her arms and ankles through the straps.
Nicole: If something goes wrong I want to see it coming.
Murphy: Nothing is going to go wrong. All systems are functioning at 100 percent.
Murphy: Nothing can come at us that I won't see coming from a long way out.

Panel 5
Nicole is stubborn, Murphy moves to exit the lounge.
Nicole: Maybe later. I'm staying here now.
Murphy: Suit yourself. I'll be right back with your drink.
Panel 6
In the lounge, Nicole sips on her drink, Murphy has returned to her couch and rests quietly, eyes closed.

Same shot. Nicole's empty drink cup floats close-by, Nicole is looking seriously bored. She doesn't notice as Murphy peers at her through one eye.
Nicole: {sigh}

Panel 8
Nicole and Murphy both begin moving away from their couches.
Nicole: All right, I've had about as much of this as I can stand.
Murphy: I'll prepare the hibernation bed.
