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.

Panel 1
Nicole and Abdi continue their tour of the ship, walking along another corridor.
Nicole: So, 'senior engineer' implies there's also a junior engineer?
Abdi: Yes, that would be Enrique Gomez. He trades shifts with Jayesh and is in sleep time now.
Panel 2
Nicole and Abdi continue walking – we can see a shadow of someone approaching from a side-corridor.
Nicole: And that's your ship's complement? Four men, no women?
Abdi: We do have one female, in a manner of speaking.
Panel 3
At the intersection, Nicole and Abdi encounter a femiform android, rather scantily clad, with vaguely asiatic/elfin features.
Abdi: And here she is.
Abdi: This is Hitomi, the ship's … courtesan.
Panel 4
Three-shot of Nicole, Abdi and Hitomi. Nicole looks dubious, Abdi looks a bit embarrassed, Hitomi is smiling sweetly.
Nicole: 'Courtesan'?
Hitomi: Hooker, whore, floozy, doxie … just don't call me a geisha, I hate that.
