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.

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Angled shot that takes in Reggie's holo-image, the girls, and Arana. We will probably see Arana mostly from behind in this frame.

Reggie: Oh, and don't let our host frighten you.

Reggie: He's a Maori and those tattoos are Moko, a traditional Maori art form.

Panel 2
Medium c/u of Arana, eyes opened wide and tongue thrust out and down in a frightening expression augmented by the tattoos.

Reggie (OP): Now, that is supposed to scare you.

Panel 3
Medium c/u of Reggie, looking towards the girls with a smile as he speaks.

Reggie: They used to do it in battle to intimidate their enemy.

Reggie: It's a wonder their race survived.

Panel 4
Medium shot of Arana, now turned towards Reggie. He's doing the tongue-thrust, but the effect is limited by the fact that he is also smiling and laughing.

Arana: Hahahahaha!
