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 523
Panel 1At the android rental shop. The shopkeeper greets Seamus as he enters the lobby.
Shopkeeper: Ah, Dr. O'Murchadha! How did things go with your rental?
Seamus: Not at all well, I'm afraid.
Panel 2
Buford and Nicole enter, carrying a very large bag.
Shopkeeper: No?
Seamus: It was quite embarrassing, actually. I spent a small fortune on evening gowns for my two escorts, but I wasn't at the party for ten huofen when the android's gown disappeared, exposing her nude body.
Panel 3
The shopkeeper looks alarmed, as Seamus reaches into the bag Buford is carrying.
Shopkeeper: But -- but that's impossible!
Seamus: More than possible. But that's not the worst of it, because less than a huofen later, she suffered a total breakdown.
Panel 4
Seamus holds up Ventura's lifeless head, which is scorched with smoke-stains.
Shopkeeper: My word!
Seamus: What kind of shoddy goods are you passing off on people?
