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
Re-establish the scene in the hotel lobby. Nicole and Rando seated, angled-facing each other. Nicole is looking serious as a heart attack.
Nicole: Come clean, Greene. Your interest in me is professional, isn't it?
Rando: I – professional?
Panel 2
Medium c/u on Nicole, looking sideways in Rando's direction.
Nicole: I looked you up on Who Dat.
Nicole: You are in the publicity business, Greene.
Panel 3
Two-shot of Nicole and Greene. Green looks, strangely, relieved.
Nicole: Since my Sun-dive my mailbox is full of entreaties from publicists.
Nicole: Well, you should know I already have a very good publicist, and don't need a second one.
Panel 4
Nicole poses what she thinks is a challenge. Greene simply smiles back at her.
Nicole: So. Do you still want to spend time showing me around Aldrinopolis, knowing that you're not going to make a gram off of me?
Panel 5
Medium c/u of Greene, head bowed like the kid who got caught with his hand in the cookie jar.
Greene: I … well, you have me dead to rights.
Greene: I saw you leaving the Bully Goat, recognized you, and followed you to the Offworld Lounge.
Panel 6
Two-shot of Green and Nicole. Green is a smoothie.
Greene: And I have to admit I'm disappointed there won't be a business deal here.
Greene: But I'd be even more disappointed if this means I won't get to spend time with you during your all-too brief stay in my town.
Panel 7
Nicole gives Greene the hairy eye-ball. Greene rolls his eyes.
Greene: And yeah, I'll still hope that some where down the road you'll need a new publicist, and call me.
Panel 8
Nicole stands.
Nicole: OK, so long as you're straight with me, we can be friends.
Nicole: Let's go.
