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
Diana stands, stretches.
Caption: On Zytemonde, where I came from, the whole idea of 'affordability' was an alien concept.
Caption: We were simply given what the 'bots thought we should have, and did the work we were assigned.
Panel 2
She walks towards an inner door near her desk.
Caption: Not here. Here, you find someone who will pay you 'money' for your labor, or whatever else you might have to offer in trade.
Caption: Then you go find what you want and exchange this 'money' for it.
Panel 3
She enters the inner office where Juan Goméz is asleep in his chair. Diana is rolling her eyes.
Caption: And no, I've never given THAT in trade, even though I have offers.
Caption: Juan Goméz, my boss, propositioned me every four or five days.
Caption: But I kept things between us strictly professional.
Panel 4
Juan wakes up with a start as Diana speaks.
Diana: Wake up, Goldie-locks. It's 15:00 and my report's in your in-box.
Juan: {Snrk!} What? I was just thinking ...
Diana: Also, you still need to pay me.
