/ Lindesfarne: I'm sorry, but we didn't even properly introduce ourselves. I'm Lindesfarne Dewclaw, and this is my boyfriend, Fenton Fuscus.
/ Ki: Ki Oshiro and Nick Wellington. / [[Lindesfarne, Fenton, and Ki are visible. Fenton seems to be examining something in his hands.]]
/ Lindesfarne: Such odd names... So are you two from this area? We're both from Domain, several hours' drive from here.
/ Fenton, thinking: Hmm...
/ Ki: No, we're-- / [[Only Nick and Ki are visible. Nick interrupts Ki, speaking quietly, clearly intended just for her ears.]]
/ Nick: You _do_realize these two are just avatars for the MUTEX's A.I.? Maybe we shouldn't waste time on small talk.
/ Ki: As long as we're here, we might as well play along... / [[Lindesfarne and Fenton, seen in profile in the foreground, speak quietly to each other. Lindesfarne seems concerned; Fenton smiles as he answers. In the background, Nick appears to be talking to Ki and gesturing with his right hand.]]
/ Lindesfarne: Fenton, do they strike you as a bit ... odd?
/ Fenton: A little, but after being around _your_ family, I'm used to just about anything. / [[Fenton, Lindesfarne, Nick, and Ki are sitting around the diner table. In the background, a crescent moon is visible through the plate glass windows.]]
/ Fenton: How do we know that you're humans who've been transported here?
/ Nick: Uh... Physically we haven't left home. This is a virtual reality setting.
/ Lindesfarne: Take it from me, this is real. / [[Lindesfarne, Nick, and Fenton are visible. Nick holds a glass in his hand.]]
/ Lindesfarne: ...But you say the human world can be accessed _online_?
/ Nick: ...With some heavy-duty bandwidth! ...Like you'd find at an I.S.P.
/ Fenton: Good news! Her dad runs one! We can leave when we're done eating! / [[Outside the diner. A green car is parked in front. The crescent moon hangs in the sky. A speech balloon over the diner originates from within.]]
/ Ki: Um... / [[Back inside the diner. Nick turns toward Ki, who is looking down dubiously at her plate, which is still full.]]
/ Nick: STILL finicky?
/ Ki: Maybe at the beach I'd find a rat leaving a sinking ship... http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20040126.html |

/ [[Fenton, with a disbelieving look on his face, talks to Nick as Ki and Lindesfarne look on from the background.]]
/ Fenton: So you _really_ think you're in some sort of virtual reality system?
/ Nick: One that I designed myself. / [[Fenton's eyes POING! wide as Nick talks]]
/ Nick: Your A.I. can't access the protected system memory, but the MUTEX is the most advanced VR ever built. It draws its data from the web and builds virtual worlds from pure thought. / Fenton: Ooh! I WANT one!
/ Nick: Well, I guess it wouldn't hurt to show you the plans. VR within VR has an interesting ring... / Ki (rolling her eyes): Sigh... Geek boys with their geek toys...
/ Lindesfarne (thinking): Actually, if I weren't preoccupied with this human thing, _I'd_ be curious... / {{Second strip, by Kevin & Kell artist Bill Holbrook.}}
/ [[Lindesfarne drives, Fenton in the front passenger seat, Nick and Ki asleep in the back, leaning on each other.]]
/ Fenton: They're asleep.
/ Lindesfarne: What do you make of them, Fenton? / Fenton: I sense they're friendly. I could put them up at my place.
/ Lindesfarne: Okay. The security system in your tree should protect you if they're not. / [[The car drives down the road, the sun setting in the background]]
/ Lindesfarne: I just have to find out what they know about humans... about my origins... about my DESTINY!

/ Nick: Thanks. / [[Ki is playing with a red ball of yarn, purring happily with a smile on her face.]]
/ Nick: I need to hit the restroom, Ki, do you -- Never mind... / [[Fenton and Nick look at a line of doors labeled from left to right 'Prey Female', 'Prey Male', 'Predator Female']]

/ [[Ki, Nick, Lindesfarne and Fenton are standing on the lawn outside Fenton's home, a smart tree (in the sense of 'smart house'.]]

/ Fenton: It took some convincing, but the house will let you in now.
/ Tree: One nibble, Dumbo, and you'll meet my better mousetrap. / Lindesfarne: Now, you mentioned you could access your world from online... ?
/ Nick: Actually, since everything here is just a simulation, any computer will do, regardless of operating system. / Nick: Just type in my secret password at any command prompt, and... "File not found in path"? / Lindesfarne: _Now_ are you convinced you're in the real world and _not_ a virtual one?
/ Nick: Um, I'm beginning to see that as one distinct possibility... / {{Second strip, by Kevin & Kell artist Bill Holbrook}} / Nick: I might be able to use your equipment to rebuild our VR system...
/ Ki: ... and get home? / [[Outside view of Fenton's tree top]]
/ Nick: Yeah, but the software will take a few days to compile. What'll we do 'til then?
/ Ki: "What'll we _DO_?" Nick! / Ki: C'mon! There's a whole fantastic, bizarre world out there, filled with amazing sights beyond our imagination! "What'll we do???"

We pollute our world, wiping out whole ecosystems in the name of making a few extra dollars. / Lindesfarne (thinking): Who knew Rudy's comic was so _prophetic_?!
/ Ki: What's worse is how we treat each other, discriminating based on gender, or the color of one's skin. / Ki: But there can be a lot of good in humans as well. Art, music, science, compassion... We can do a lot when our hearts are in it.
/ Lindesfarne: Maybe we're not so different after all... / Ki: I have to ask... why are you so curious about humans, anyway?
/ Lindesfarne: Just... personal curiosity... / {{Second strip, by Kevin & Kell artist Bill Holbrook}} / [[Fenton and Lindesfarne sit back to back on computers in the Hare-Link ISP's office.]]

/ Lindesfarne: I dunno. Maybe it's not such a good idea to keep them hidden in your smart house. / Fenton: Why?

| GPF Archive: Sunday, February 1, 2004 | Feline Ki: How goes the compilation?
/ Rodent Nick: Slow. This "Microtalon" OS is familiar, yet foreign, and programming from memory is causing lots of bugs. / Feline Ki: Nick, if this _isn't_ a Mutex simulation, then what _is_ it?
/ Rodent Nick: I'm not sure yet. A parallel dimension, perhaps? / Feline Ki: I thought that was just science fiction.
/ Rodent Nick: Pure science has yet to prove that, but it's not beyond human imagination. / Rodent Nick: Uncle Wise and I speculated that perhaps Velociraptor drew its energy from another universe.
/ Feline Ki: But how would _this_ universe even know about humans? / Rodent Nick: Maybe humans here are just as much a product of their imagination as "furries" are a product of ours.
/ Feline Ki: Maybe, but that seems a bit far-fetched. / Rodent Nick: True... But then this webcomic Fenton saved copies of on his hard disk could prove otherwise... http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20040201.html |

/ Todd: You remember my face, but I'll bet you don't even know my _name_. / Todd: There's a lot you don't know about me, but you know what I represent. Your _future_ is unknown and uncertain. Everything you thought you knew is unmade. / [[Todd grabs ahold of Trudy]]
/ Todd: I am the embodiment of that fear. I am a shadow looming over you, seeking to consume you and destroy you from within.
/ Trudy: Stop it! Go away! / [[Chuck replaces Todd]]
/ Chuck: I will _never_ go away. I will haunt you for the rest of your life. http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20040220.html |

/ Trudy: CHUCK!
/ Chuck: Get used to seeing this face when you close your eyes, _murderer_. / [[Trudy is crying as Chuck leans in]]
/ Trudy: I-I didn't _murder_ you! I _gave_ you a chance. You brought it upon _yourself_!
/ Chuck: _LIAR_! YOU LEFT ME TO _DIE_! / Chuck: I will tear at your soul, at what tiny scrap of conscience you have, until it will drive you mad.
/ Trudy [[weakly]:Y-you're hurting me? / [[Empress Trudy replaces Chuck]]
/ Empress Trudy: _Hurt_ you? Why would I want to hurt _myself_? http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20040221.html |
| GPF Archive: Sunday, February 22, 2004 | [[Trudy kicks Empress Trudy]]
/ Trudy: NO!
/ Empress Trudy: HAHAHAHAHA / [[Empress Trudy stands up with a blanket draped around her]]
/ Empress Trudy: What's the matter, Trudy? Don't like looking into the mirror of your inescapable future?
/ Trudy: N-NEVER! / [[Empress Trudy's eyes flare red and her features turn demonic]]
/ Empress Trudy: Face it! We are one and the same! Your fate is sealed, and I am your only destiny. Embrace your future! / [[Empress Trudy lunges at Trudy, the laughter and screams running into the next panel]]
/ Empress Trudy: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
/ Trudy:AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH / [[Trudy hits the floor of her bedroom]] / [[The rat looks at her oddly]]
/ Rat: Squeak? http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20040222.html |
| GPF Archive: Monday, February 23, 2004 | [[Trudy is wearing dark glasses and leaves after paying her rent]]
/ Trudy narrating: The dreams are getting worse. I haven't had a restful night in months. When I sleep, it's out of exhaustion. / [[Trudy approaches Fred's Deli: Open 24 Hours]]
/ Trudy narrating: Every time I close my eyes, I see them. First Nick, then the others, and finally..._her_. / [[Trudy sits in the deli with a cup of coffee. It is raining outside]]
/ Trudy narrating: I've tried everything to put them out of my mind. I have more pressing things to worry about, like the UGA and C.R.U.D.E. / [[Trudy slumps forward]]
/ Trudy narrating: How can I be so alone, yet so mobbed all at once? http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20040223.html |
| GPF Archive: Tuesday, February 24, 2004 | [[A waitress brings some food to Trudy]]
/ Trudy narrating: I should be spending more time planning how to flee the country and tap into those hidden offshore accounts the FBI hasn't seized yet. / [[Trudy is sitting and the building across the street is visible]]
/ Trudy narrating: I should color my hair and cut it, maybe consider plastic surgery. I should be more actively hiding instead of wallowing in self-doubt. / [[Todd and Empress Trudy are fighting in the building across the street; Todd has some sort of ring around his wrist]]
/ Trudy narrating: But all I can think about are those dreams. They're so vivid, so real... am I... am I going mad? Am I losing my grip on reality? / [[Trudy tears up]]
/ Trudy narrating: Next thing you know, I'll be seeing tall scary men in green jester caps. http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20040224.html |
