Strip 577 -- First Seen: 2010-11-23
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
Wide panel. Long shot of Babbette and Reggie walking along Main Street. They're not holding hands but they're obviously a 'couple.' Other people are on the street and a few passers-by take notice of them. (It's a small town, after all, where everybody knows almost everybody).
Caption (narration): Over the following decadays, Babbette and Reggie spent all of their nights and as much of their days together.
Caption: It wasn't a one-night stand, it wasn't a fling.

Panel 2
Medium shot, Reggie and Babbette sitting together at a fine restaurant table, candle-lit, romantic setting, making goo-goo eyes at each other over their wine glasses. If space permits, show them playing footsie under the table.
Caption: They were growing together, and curiously, it frightened them both.
Caption: But neither expressed their fears to the other.

Panel 3
Reggie and Babbette in bed, clearly in the warm afterglow of lovemaking. Neither is wearing clothes, although Babbette has the sheet pulled up over her breasts.
Caption: That changed on their self-proclaimed 'centiversary,' ten decadays after they'd first gotten together.
Babbette: Reggie, I've been thinking about Carlos.
