Strip 236 -- First Seen: 2009-08-10
Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.

QV on a short break

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.

Kickstarter successful and closed

The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.

Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.

(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)

Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
At the table on the patio, include Ernie, now seated again, Nisa standing behind him, and Tobi slumped rather despondently in his chair. We can see enough of Tobi's face that he is clearly feeling remorse. Make this panel fairly wide to accommodate the dialog.

Nisa: Hey, Tobi, don't beat yourself up.

Nisa: Your whole security team dropped the ball.

Nisa: It's just not possible to prepare for every conceivable threat.

Panel 2
Close-up on Nisa, her formerly hard and businesslike demeanor softening as she speaks quietly.

Nisa: Alex would have understood, okay?

Panel 3
Medium close-up on Tobi, still slumped but looking up towards Nisa.

Tobi: Yes, I know you're right, Nisa.

Panel 4
Angle from behind Tobi, now sitting straighter in his chair. We can now see all four of the others, looking back at Tobi with sympathetic expressions.

No dialog.
