Strip 474 -- First Seen: 2010-07-01
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
Babbette the Elder takes charge, holding a protective arm across the front of the booth.
Babbette: Simmer down, folks! This poor girl's been through a lot and you're overwhelming her!

Panel 2
BtE turns to Robyn.
BtE: Robyn, you can do what you want, but I need some help in the kitchen and some back-up waitressing for Emily.
BtE: I can give you room an' board plus 10 gold grams for 250 centimes' work a decaday, if you're interested.

Panel 3
Looking out from the wall, which puts Robyn on the left, Babbette the Elder at the end of the table, and Babbette the Younger at the right.
Robyn: Uh, I might be, as soon as I find out what's a centime and a decaday.
BtY: I'd take that deal if I were you – it's better than she offered me and I'm her granddaughter!

Panel 4
Looking at Babbette the Elder from Robyn's POV – she's hooked a thumb over her shoulder indicating the crowd of people gathered around.
BtE: Can y' start right now? I got a cafe full o' hungry customers!
