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.
Kickstarter Success! [ May 13, 2025 ]
The Not-Safe-Space 2 Kickstarter Campaign has ended successfully. Thanks to all who pledged!
Now we get to wait 2 weeks while Kickstarter transmits the funds, and Scott can order the books, and send surveys to backers to get current e-mail addresses for the .PDF versions and mailing addresses for the physical books.
All of this should show up in June.
Transcript For Strip 1831
Panel 1Another angle on Montoya, Diana, and the bodyguards.
Montoya: Dead? Oh Sweet Green, no!
Montoya: But … are you not aware of his condition?
Diana: The hospital won't talk to me! So that's what I'm here to find out.
Panel 2
The Snake is scandalazed, and begins leading the troupe out of the alcove.
Montoya: That is a brazen violation of the assignation!
Montoya: I will rectify this immediately, and then lodge a complaint with the house counsel.
Montoya: Come with me and we will visit Senhor Gómez.
Panel 3
Montoya, Diana, Areum and Wook are confronted by a pair of hospital orderlies in a doorway. One is an android, the other a beltape, and both are large. Montoya is flashing his card again.
Montoya: Good evening, sirs. I have an assignee to visit Senhor Juan Gómez.
Beltape orderly: Visiting hours are over. Come back tomorrow.
Montoya: By J. Kubric R.1844 paragraph 47b, hospitals in the Rodriguez Compact agree to allow close relatives to visit patients at virtually any time that suits them.
Panel 4
Same shot. The android has turned to speak to the beltape.
Montoya: And paragraph 217c stipulates that assignees have the same privileges as close relatives.
Android orderly: He is correct.
Beltape orderly: Very well, you may go in.
Areum (sotto voce): It is good to know the right codes.
