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

Strip 39

Panel 1
Billy and Wally take advantage of Cererean micro-gravity to literally leap out the hatchway and make their escape.

Billy: We’re sorry, Rev … your Majesty.

Wally: Yeah, sorry!


Panel 2
Looking back towards the group at the dais, who are themselves looking towards the hatchway – Bert and Ernie exchange knowing grins, Guy has his usual annoyed look, Fiorella her usual poker face. Babbette is covering her face with her hands, so that the visitors can’t see her suppressing a giggle. Reggie is doing his best to look royally indignant.



Reggie: For the edification of our visitors, 'Celestial Bodies' is a … roaming brothel which brings, ah, comfort services to lonely miners in the farther planetoids.

Reggie: I will deal with those two rapscallions later.

Panel 3
Guy and Fiorella, Fiorella is speaking to Guy, Guy is still addressing the king.

Fiorella: Perhaps if we tell the King about the Moon Treaty’s aim, to clear the air…

Guy: Ah! Yes. If Your Majesty would permit, I would like to explain the noble purpose of the treaty.


Panel 4
Angled shot so that we see Babbette up close and Reggie looming behind her. Babbette has a dubious look on her face; Reggie is looking dead serious.

Reggie: You may proceed.
