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
Nicole and Seamus, with their luggage at their feet, stand outside the door to Nicole's stateroom, looking into it. The stateroom is very small – more like a slot tall enough to stand in, with a bed on one side and a wash basin on the other.
Nicole: Are you kidding?
Nicole: The bathroom in my apartment is bigger than this.
Panel 2
Two-shot of Nicole and Seamus, still in the corridor.
Seamus: I'm sorry about this, but I'd reserved a larger room for both of us previously.
Seamus: When we decided to go with separate rooms, these … smaller rooms were the only ones left.
Panel 3
Nichole steps into the room, her bag following. Seamus remains outside the door.
Nicole: I guess it'll have to do. For sleeping, anyway.
Seamus: You're welcome to spend the day cycle with me in my stateroom.
Panel 4
Nicole grins back at Seamus, who is looking back at her askance.
Nicole: That's okay. There are several lounges on board.
Nicole: I'll be in one of them most of the time I'm not sleeping.
Panel 5
Seamus is not looking happy.
Seamus: It would be better if you limited your drinking.
Seamus: I don't wish to be a Pelosi, but you are my assistant and I may have need of you from time to time.
Panel 6
Medium shot of Nicole, tapping a finger to her temple.
Nicole: Gotcha boss. I'll stay sober … well, mostly.
Nicole: And if you need me, just call me on our direct line.
Panel 7
In the hallway, Seamus begins walking away, his luggage following. Nicole sticks her head out her doorway after him.
Seamus: Please join me for dinner at 1900, in my stateroom, will you?
Nicole: Still playing hermit? Suit yourself.
Panel 8
Exterior shot of the Dejah Thoris, pulling away from Ishtar Station.
Nicole: After what we've been through, I'm looking forward to a relaxing 4-week cruise.
