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 788
Panel 1Satrapi's office. Looks like a throne room at once both high-tech and decadent, with Adilieh reposed on an elevated sofa, and two servants (one human, one android, both beautiful) attending. We see her from Seamus' POV.
Adileh: Seamus O'Murchadha! Did you bring me the heart of Snow White?
Panel 2
Switch view to Seamus presenting Murphy.
Seamus: I only have the heart your broke yourself, many years ago.
Seamus: May I present Murphy, heir to Po Xu-ke, and owner de jure of twelve million shares in Project X.
Panel 3
Murphy steps forward to shake hands with Adileh (because her sofa is on a platform she doesn't have to stand to be eye-level with the gynoid).
Adileh: A pleasure to finally meet you.
Adileh: Seamus' description of you was, shall we say, tantalizingly minimalist.
Adileh: But where is your other companion? The famous sun-diver?
Panel 4
Adileh, Murphy, and Seamus. Adileh is trying to complement Murphy but Murphy is cool to it.
Seamus: I'm afraid our travails enroute here were a bit much for her, and she's recuperating at Áine's Spa.
Adileh: I heard about your pirate encounter. Nice rescue work, Murphy.
Murphy: It was nothing. Really.
