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 1881
Panel 1Diana struggles to recover her composure; Zander looks embarrassed; Ginger looks amused.
Diana: I mean … I thought Zander … uh … when did you … what happened to Nora?
Zander: What? Oh, Nora! We split almost four cycles ago. Didn't I mention that?
Zander: It just wasn't working, out, and then I met Ginger, and ...
Panel 2
Diana, Zander and Ginger, who coils her arm snake-like around Zander's arm.
Diana: … Okay, I get the picture.
Diana: Sorry, ah, Ginger, I got caught flat-footed there.
Ginger: Zander was working at a mini-fabber-repair shop, his talents going to waste.
Panel 3
Wook remains in the background as Diana and Zander listen to Ginger.
Ginger: I saw his potential and staked him to starting his own business, custom-designing equipment and appliances for high-end applications.
Ginger: Zander is a genius engineer but doesn't have much of a head for business.
Ginger: That's where I come in.
Panel 4
Diana lights up at Stefan's words.
Diana: Sounds like a, whatchacallit, synergistic partnership.
Diana (thoughtsend): Watch out, Zander, she's latched onto you like a tapeworm.
Zander (thoughtsend): No worries, I'm still doing the books. She finds customers for me.
Ginger: You could put it that way, yes. And with benefits, besides.
