Kickstarter Success!
The Not-Safe-Space 2 Kickstarter Campaign has ended successfully. Thanks to all who pledged!
Now we get to wait 2 weeks while Kickstarter transmits the funds, and Scott can order the books, and send surveys to backers to get current e-mail addresses for the .PDF versions and mailing addresses for the physical books.
All of this should show up in June.
The Transcript For This Page
Panel 1
Tall panel. In the background, we can see Babbette the Younger, dressed in party clothes (no Spaceport Agent cap), holding a small stack of cards in one hand and one card from the stack in the other. In the foreground, we can see one of the cards up close, so we can read what's on it, and the hand of someone holding the card (we're looking at it from this anonymous person's POV.
The Card:
Agenda
My Confession
My Amends
My Name
My Party!
Panel 2
Large panel. High-angle view of the party, in the same church area where we originally saw 'King Reginald The First' pull his fast one on Guy and Fiorella. The pews have been moved to the side to provide an open area in the center while still affording some seating on the sides. Behind and to one side of the dais is a Karaoke machine blaring music – the machine has a long pole extending vertically 3 meters into the air, with a rotating disco-ball on top. Light beams (not lasers) from the machine below reflect of the ball's mirrors creating some party lighting. There are also some low-power lasers emitting from the machine onto the walls, creating wild luminescent patterns. The place is also festooned with party ribbons, balloons, fake plants, and the pews along the sides have decorative coverings on them.
To one side of the main floor is a table with appetizers and drinks. Robyn and Mary Callahan are serving to guests. About 30 more people are standing around the main floor, chatting and drinking.
Caption (Reggie): 'Without telling Babbette, I fabbed up some fancy décor and fine tuned the karaoke machine's built-in light show.
Caption: 'When Babbette said she was going to get Callahan's to cater the shindig, I told her to tell Callahan to give her the church discount.
Caption: 'Which he did.'
Caption (Reggie): After greetings were made and appetizers and drinks served to everyone, Babbette stepped onto the dais.
