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 ]

Panel 1
Re-establishing shot of the upper-level balcony, with Lauren, Diana and Otto.
Diana: So, did this all-business, asexual gynoid have any sort of social life?
Lauren: None … well, I take that back. There was an android who called on her here a few times.
Caption: An android? Can you describe him?
Panel 2
Flash-back scene showing Hayami standing in a gateway, talking to the android. It has a masculine aspect but it's not particularly sexy. Lauren again speaks from a cameo.
Lauren: He was … barely a 'he,' really. A utilitarian design, made for industrial work, perhaps.
Lauren: He only came around a half dozen times. Sometimes they just had a brief conversation at the estate, but on two occasions she went off with him.
Panel 3
Back to the present, Lauren and Diana.
Diana: Did she never tell you who he was?
Lauren: Just 'a friend,' she said. I didn't choose to pry.
Diana: Without a name or image I don't have any way to find him.
Panel 4
Lauren laughs. Diana is getting really irritated by Otto's fixation on her.
Lauren: Oh, I have security recordings of every visitor. I'll have the relevant segments sent to you.
Diana: So we're being recorded now?
Lauren: Of course. Someone in my position can't be too careful, you know.
