Transcript:
Bernice: Nite, Piro. Piro: nite. Bernice: ok, yes. I bent a rule. But it's because I care about Piro's well being! Bernice: Besides, i'm a bold new me, not some dull fuddy duddy! Bernice: oh, good lord.
Bernice mentally hides the fact that she is hot. She is attracted to Piro, and the desire to be desirable is coming out. She is becoming a woman. So lets see what happens. It must be good since this is a two week arc.
Considering that you’ve got Piro out on the couch, it might be prudent to wear your old fuddy-duddy flannel nightgown. Just saying, wild and crazy Bernie….
What kind of dorm room has a separate bedroom? My college dorm room was one room with two beds in it and two small closets – the bathroom was in the hall.
My guess is that tomorrow will show a fully dressed Bernice, leaving her room all prepared to ‘talk and listen’ to her new ‘patient’, Piro, but the couch will have only the pillows and blanket on it…
I don’t get it— that’s such a cute winter nightgown (compared to the flannel pjs I’ve always worn). If she’s going for sultry, she just needs to add a seductive smile, an attitude, and some nice cologne.
Allowing someone to live in the dorms without paying a room contract isn’t “bending” the rules, Bernice. It’s throwing the rule book out the window. Oh wait, that won’t work, because you already made sure everyone closed their windows. Priorities!
> he’s just crashing for the night, for crying out loud.>As he has apparently been doing for quite some time, in one room or another. That is indeed “living in the dorms”.
Implausible… you are correct that he did sleep over the one time uninvited associated with the party. But, like I mentioned to Seismic-2…. while it is likely he is staying at one or more “buddies places”…. it may be that those places are off campus apartments. I am not sure I can suggest a “best” move for Bernice at this point, until I learn more about Piro’s backstory.
6Overall, I like today’s comic. However, I find it sad that Bernice finds her pajamas “too ‘unsexy’” or “too fuddy-duddy” or whatever negative terms she is applying in her mind. I may not speak for most males, but at least for myself, I do know that clothing makes little difference about a romantic attraction. In fact, “vampy” or “sexy” lingerie or pajamas is IMO rather gaudy and embarrassing. It is the person, not the clothes that a guy will like about you, Bernice…. at least if the guy is not a shallow dope.
-I think her first move should be to ascertain if he is actually a student there or not
I agree with you. The guy does appear to need help (from someone with serious training, not just a student of psych). But if he’s not a student, he shouldn’t be staying on a campus. Campus counselors could refer him to agencies that could help him (like a lot of volunteer veterans organizations, if he’s a vet…)
“…wonder if again she’ll turn to Tiffany, for fashion advice…”-————————————————————————————-
Not for this I would think… I hope. Tiffany has the hots for Piro and might try to sabotage Bern’s efforts if she knew her intent. I hope Bern doesn’t try any extreme makeovers. I don’t think Piro is even looking for that. His needs are more basic at this time. I think he wants and needs real friends at the moment.
Implausible said, @mjb515So Bernice has beady little eyes while Luann and Tiffany have big bright eyes?’
Pretty much everyone has little beady eyes. Only Luann, Tiffany, and Nancy has huge eyes, which supports the theory that Nancy had an affair with Mr. Farrell and let him keep one of the fraternal twins. Maybe that’ll be revealed down the line. . . . -—————————————————In the comix – the various cartoon eyes are only “in the eyes of the beholder.” Charlie Brown’s, Calvin’s, even Sun’s..Luann is not related to Barney Google.
@TrainmanTrainman said, @Meh~tdologyYep, I have been waiting for Toni to show up in even a bikini – much less lingerie! Greg just does not get it! , . . . . -—————————————He has had Tiff in a bikini. Several times. Luann too.
I made this comment the other day. Let’s see if it was removed or I just submitted it wrong. He’s going to have to explain why this guy has no home at some point. I’ll be interested in seeing how he does it. Statistically, this boy is most likely gay. At his age, and being in school with no apparent connections to family I’d say he is a disowned member of the LGBT community. We make up more than 40% of the homeless youth. It would be nice if our existence, and more importantly, the issues of our youth was recognized. But I’m sure one of these anti-gay groups would make some stink about it.

Did Bernice get her own room? I don’t see any of Dez’s witch doctor wall hangings anywhere.

Should put a sock on the door knob, to let Dez know a man is in the room.

Perhaps Prudence will turn out to be someone who wears a minimum amount of fabric. Maybe Quill likes her because she is a fellow Aussie?

Tiffany and Luann as separated fraternal twins?!?! Thank you for the big laugh! That would indeed be a tremendously crazy, chaotic, and funny arc!!!

Someone stays up all night to worry about what the other person is thinking. The other person, meanwhile, is sawing wood.
Guess who the worrier might be…
