It’s like Fantastic Voyage, but he’s going to the centre of a banana, raspberry, lime and orange smoothie.

Not “he”s” going. Have a look under the left armpit.

I never thought I’d live to see the Power Rangers reimagined as alien jelly bean people. I can now die happy.

@#2 LTL – I considered the same thing, but the size of the larynx doesn’t gibe.

@LL: She’s no Raquel!

Goodreads sez:
” Ai was an apprentice Pathfinder, in training to guide the great Darkjumpers through interstellar space. But sporadic attacks of blindness seemed likely to end her career before it had truly begun.
Desperate, she sought the counsel of an old family friend. But she found him lost to a living death, his mind mysteriously siphoned off in the Dark of space. So she brought his body back to Scholar Emrys, the one man she thought could help him.”
OK, I’ll stop now.

Please keep going – at least until you get to some kind of explanation for the giant (sentient?) flying space fruit.

Well, that’s bubble tea ruined for me now.

VLTTP: Sorry, of the giant space fruit Goodreads has nothing to say.

Geary Gravel. Is he any relation to Sprockety Grit?

Space Macaroons! The yellow one seems to sport a goofy grin and is eyeing up the bubble-girl with a somewhat lascivious glint in his macaroon eye!

@LL: “Darkjumpers” long time foes of the Cream Cardigans?

What’s all this colorful mist stuff in space anyway? Is Space-California on fire?

I’m not sure what pronouns the bubble person uses but I’m going with “she/her”. The arm and neck are so nebulously (har) drawn that I’m fairly confident in that from the small sideboob. *reads LtL’s comment* So there.
But having short hair and small chest is an advantage when you have to travel by small bubble. I see her brainstem’s plugged into the bubble, but how does she do… everything else? (and other science facts).
Is the ribbon-like thing the Path to be Found? Doesn’t take much talent, then. We can all see it from here. Follow the yellow glow road.
@FB (8): She’s lost in the Bubble Tea Nebula, where all the boba of different species mingle with no rhyme nor reason.
@Tor (10): That’s better than I managed which was “WTF kind of name is that?”

@GSSxn: I suppose her bubble just slowly fills up with… stuff. Hopefully there’s some sort of outlet valve at the bottom to empty the accumulated contents once in a while.

@Vlttp: I do hope the electronics are well-shielded from moisture, then.
Or perhaps since she has no food or water, the stuff doesn’t happen. So it’s hopefully a very short flight. Might explain why she’s skinny (and looking for bubble tea).

Gary Glitter’s attempt to re-invent himself isn’t panning out.
