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.
What Comes Next [ Mar 18, 2024 ]
The war is over, but This Means War has a ways to go. Novo Paolo/Bubbleopolis is still in a nebula/stellar nursery, no one knows what happened to the planet Sharen (center of the Intergalactic Council), and the status of the now-surrendered Invaders is yet to be resolved. What will they do when they learn their homeworld is basically destroyed? Will Alyss and Li be re-united? How about Diana (the real one) and Otto?
These questions will be resolved in the next few weeks, before This Means War part 3 wraps in late May.
After that, I plan to go BACK in time about 400 years, to when Alyss and Li left their home in the Sol System to colonize a new world on the far side of the galaxy. As one might expect, hijinks ensue. New subtitle yet to be determined, start date sometime in around the start of July. Stay tuned!
Transcript For Strip 1859
Panel 1The dining area of the apartment. Areum is in her work clothing, but Wook is wearing pajamas. Dong is dishing up breakfast as Diana, also wearing a light robe, walks in from the left.
Diana: Hey, at least this place has mini-fabs that can whip up some lounge-wear.
Areum: The source-tanks are almost depleted. We will need to refill them soon.
Dong: How many pancakes do you want, Diana?
Panel 2
Diana, Wook, Areum at the breakfast table, Dong holding an empty serving dish and spatula, is turning back to the prep area. Wook is spreading a thick sauce on her pancakes.
Diana: Two, please. Did you just get up too, Wook?
Areum: My cousin and I will be working 7-hour shifts, now.
Areum: Wook was on overnight as we slept. I went on at 5:00.
Panel 3
Dong at the stove, manifesting five more pancakes.
Dong: I must be on my own way, attending important matters.
Dong: Among which is lining up an advogado for you. If you intend to pursue this matter, you will certainly need some legal backing.
Panel 4
Diana and the women at the table. Wook is scarfing down a rolled-up, dripping pancake. Areum is looking at Wook.
Diana: I'm kinda hoping for help from Roaz, on that matter.
Diana: But it would be a good idea to have an alternative at hand, in case she fires me.
Areum (thought-send): Wook, don't get too comfortable here. This job may not last long.
