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
Still in the lobby, the shopkeeper has entered and is introducing the now-online Veronica. She is dressed in a practical outfit, v-neck blouse and knee-length shorts, with slippers.
Shopkeeper: And here she is, good sir, ready to serve you.
Shopkeeper: As I mentioned, you may select whatever name you like for this V-287 model.
Panel 2
Three-shot Seamus, Nicole and Buford. Seamus is looking thoughtful, Nicole looks alarmedly at Seamus, and Buford looks like she wants to be elsewhere.
Seamus: Hmmm – a V model …
Seamus: How about Vanessa?
Nicole: That's my mothers name!
Panel 3
Different three-shot, now Buford has a contribution.
Seamus: Victoria, Vaishali, Valerie, Valentina, Vanni, Vanya, Velma, Venus, Verushka, Victoria, Vilhelmina ...
Buford: … Vagina ...
Nicole: Buford ...
Panel 4
Group shot, all 5 characters. Seamus triumphant, Nicole wrinkles her nose, Buford rolls her eyes, Shopkeeper pleased, Veronica accepting.
Seamus: I've got it! Ventura! Whose name means happiness.
Nicole: Or a part in a fabricator.
Buford: I'll be happy when this is over.
Veronica/Ventura: I can be happiness for you.
