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.
QV on a short break [ Jul 15, 2026 ]
QUANTUM VIVE is taking a break for a few weeks, as we prepare for Part 2 of the Novo Palermo story, and also for a Kickstarter campaign for Part 1, which will start in September.
In the meantime, Not-Safe.Space will continue, as a murder mystery begins and the relationship between Eithne and Diana develops in unexpected directions.
Not-Safe.Space is a NSFW strip but more than half the pages are SFW so I've set those to *not* require a Patreon membership. Readers should be able to follow the story without seeing the NSFW pages. If I've done this right.
Transcript For Strip 1838
Panel 1Diana, Dong, Wook and Areum are in the 'car park' walking along a taxi-path.
Dong: I think it likely that there is a tracking device in the flyer Senhora deClayre gave you, and possibly a cabin recorder, yes?
Diana: I hate to think that of Lorelei, but yeah, it's very possible.
Panel 2
They are standing next to the super-flyer. The satchel is open on the ground, and Dong is assembling a meter-tall device as the others look on.
Diana: Come to think of it, there's nothing sinister about a tracking device for your own mobile property. I have one for my own flyer.
Dong: As well as a cabin recorder?
Diana: Er, no. But I do have a remote disabler.
Panel 3
Two-shot of Dong and Diana, with the device which appears to be functioning now.
Dong: A tracker and a recorder are not sinister in themselves. But having such in another's control is a security problem.
Diana: Yeah. The thing is, I'm still not sure whether this is a gift or a loaner. Would I be violating her property right if we disabled them?
Panel 4
Pull back to include part of the super-flyer. Dong is looking at a holoscreen generated above the device. Diana is looking surprised.
Dong: Well, maybe she won't mind if we only disable two of the three trackers and three of the four recording devices.
Dong: The remote disabler is already disabled, however. Most curious.
