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.
Panel 1
Diana is still lying on the table, her eyes now closed. Monty is standing by, at the console. Wook is in the background. Alyss enters the frame.
Caption: A short while later:
Monty: I was wondering when you'd join us.
Alyss: I was reviewing her expense report ...
Alyss: Is she doing a full back-up?
Panel 2
Same shot.
Monty: Yep. She didn't take her cube with her, it was stolen.
Alyss: That's not good. They will know I'd hired her and Sr. Goméz, and under what terms.
Monty: Yes but from what I understand, she hadn't gone very far in her queries when they hit her flat.
Panel 3
Close two-shot on Monty and Alyss.
Alyss: Yes, in the worst case, they might know some of the early leads. But you should see what she paid that crafters club for that hyper-whozit construction! Ridiculous.
Alyss: It's like I gave a no-limit credit chip to a teenager! When the back-up is complete she needs a flash course on proper horse-trading.
Panel 4
Same shot as panel 2. Now Diana is speaking, Alyss is chagrined.
Diana: To be fair, I only turned 20 four cycles ago.
Monty: Did I mention that the new back-up gluware allows the subject to remain conscious during the upload?
Alyss: No. You did not.
