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.
Panel 1
Cut to: Nicole, Murphy and Seamus, dressed for dinner, approach an ornate double-door. Nicole is excited to be meeting a famous person.
Nicole: So you've already met Adileh Satrapi? What's she like?
Murphy: She's a kindly old grandmother who will serve you milk and cookies.
Panel 2
The door opens and our protagonists are confronted by Leyaj. This time he's wearing a filmy tutu over a g-string, under a tux jacket with cummerbund. Nicole is taken aback but the others take Leyaj in stride. He looks down his nose at them like a typical British butler.
Leyaj: Ah, yes, madame is expecting you. Please come this way.
Panel 3
In a foyer, Adileh glides in from a side-door to meet the gang. She is wearing a very sexy evening gown.
Adileh: Seamus! You're right on time.
Adileh: My other guest has already been seated. Shall we join him?
Seamus: Other guest?
Panel 4
In the dining room, a round table is set for five places. At one of them is Li-Liang. Nicole is overjoyed, Murphy is chagrined.
Adileh: I believe you may have met before?
Panel 5
Everyone seats themselves, except for Nicole, who sits as Li holds her chair.
Seamus: My word, do you realize how long it's been since you and I and Li have sat at the same dinner table?
Adileh: Seventeen years, eight months, if I recall correctly.
Panel 6
Murphy speaks up, to Adileh.
Murphy: I'm almost afraid to ask, but how do you and Mr. … and Li know each other?
Adileh: He was my first network administrator. Also my only network administrator.
Panel 7
Adileh, Li, Nicole, Murphy.
Adileh: I didn't want to let the opportunity for re-uniting you two gentlemen pass.
Murphy: As it turns out, they were re-united this morning. All morning.
Panel 8
Adileh and Murphy look at Li and Nicole, who only seem to have eyes for each other.
Adileh: I see. Well, somehow I don't think Li has had his fill of socializing.
Murphy: Neither has Nicole.
