    In a movie, a closed door like this would imply that the characters were going to have sex.-But this isn’t a movie, and I’m not going to infer anything like that.

    I agree – when Piro says he’s looking for a place to crash, that’s probably what he’s looking for. I’m not sure what Tiffany is looking for… Anyhow, the setup may be salacious but the result will probably be anything but.

    Hum,

    doesn’t it looks like this isn’t the first time Pyro actually sleep in Tiffany’s room ?

    They both look pretty casual about it, he even really asked her and she wasn’t putting her best smile at him either.Tiffany can be selfish and self-oriented but she is less “inhibited” than Bernice, I am not sure she would make a big fuss of hacing a guy crash on her counch for the night.I think that this is the real big revelation that will happen. Bernice and Gunther will see Pyro leave Tiff’ room and they both become jealous and had to admit their feeling. The trick would be that this jealousy would also show Tiff’ how her so called “friends” or at least “high school acquouintance” really perceive her.

    We are all assuming that Piro went into Tiffany’s room, of course. I suppose he did; but how easily we leap to conclusions!If he did enter her room, i take him at his word, that he seeks a crashpad and nothing more. And I expect that that is all, essentially, that Tiffany will offer other than maybe a cup of coffee and some very brief conversation. Piro is extremely laconic (and probably tired), and Tiff is no great conversationalist, either….Net outcome: maybe some jealousy, or maybe nothing at all. I am not sure how attuned to such rumor Oxford would be, as he is an Honest Man such as Diogenes sought, amongst collegiate personality types, or characters, as ancient literature would have it….

    There, You See Gunther? You barely crossed the Door Sill and ALREADY “Ms Strumpet” Has REPLACED You. Its ALWAYS Gonna Be THIS Way with THIS Gal.

    Having Tiff for “Just a Friend” is the Second Smartest MOVE You’ve ever Made. (Abandoning Rosa was the First)

    Now Head for Bern’s and FINALLY get HER Out of Your “System” too. Look, Make it FUN. Tell Bern You believe Tiffany has a late night “Guest” staying over in Direct Violation of Campus Rules And She Needs to CONFRONT Her on This Transgression Right Away. Then Sit back and ENJOY the Ensuing Chaos.

    And When THAT is Over You can get back to Your REAL Task in Life. That is, Devoting ALL of Your Energy and Considerable Intellect to Getting RID of Pretty Boy ONCE and For ALL.

    Now we need someone in higher authority than Bernice to catch both Gunther with Bernice and Piro with Tiffany. Punishment for both. Bernice will be humiliated that she is being held up in public humiliation for immoral conduct alongside Tiffany.

    Perhaps Bernice will turn Gunther away because it’s after curfew, he’ll return to Tiff’s room to find Pyro there, and we’ll be treated to “Jealous Gunther” again.

    3Hmmm. Interesting developments today, indeed. While I cannot say what will happen of course, here are the things I hope DO NOT happen:1. I hope that Piro staying with Tiffany is not going to play as Tiffany’s way to “get back” at Gunther for not “seeing her” interest in Gunther. 2. I hope that Tiffany does not get physical in any fashion with Piro.3. I hope that Piro’s character is not going to become some sort of “predator” type character. 4. I now also hope that Gunther is not going to actually ask out Bernice.So, what do I HOPE will transpire associated with today’s panels?1. Piro crashes with Tiffany for the evening, but there is no attempt at sexual intimacy by either individual. 2. It would be interesting and enjoyable if Piro opened up to Tiffany and told his backstory. It would also be nice if Tiffany opened up to Piro and told her backstory.3. I hope that Bernice turns Gunther down if he does ask her for a date. So that is about it. However, here are another few comments in general:1. The shirt Gunther is wearing this week reads somewhat “Charlie Brown-esque” to me. Perhaps Greg is using variations in Gunther’s clothing to suggest whether he is in a “thinking and caring mode” or in a “blockhead” mode? 2. All this week I have been again enjoying the facial expressions Greg has been giving Tiffany. Over the last several months as Tiffany has become more developed in college, Greg has done a very nice job of adding to her facial expressions. I can read a lot more sincerity, openness, and even a bit of fragility in Tiffany’s character through Greg’s newer facial expressions.

    -Greg will continue his theme of missed opportunities.

    I had been thinking of the theme of this arc as being ‘lack of communication’, which is sort of a continuing theme (the DeGroots not really communicating with Prudence to find out anything about her or her play; Luann and Quill not communicating to find out how important Pru is or not to Quill, etc.)

    But your theme is a lot funnier. So thanks for a more cheerful take on all this…

    Piro was not necessarily heading for Tiff’s, though he could have crashed there before. long ago. after a party..Of course, he may have been heading for Bernice’s. But would he? Did she make him really feel welcome?.Or he may have been heading for Hair’s room just beyond that.

    As always with Gary, I end up being disappointed or frustrated, but never really satisfied. Hopefully, Saturday’s strip will redeem this dead end for Gunther & Tiffany. There is no chemistry between Bernice and Gunther. They could hold their own ice festival and call it a date. I can remember only one time that I actually was pleased with something, and that’s when Gunther grabbed Rosa and kissed her in the school hallway. Greg’s drawing talent is worth the price of admission, but geeze guy, give us some happiness in your story telling.

    -I can’t cut and paste ‘toons, so I can’t show this one to you but Piro has reported that he crashes in guy’s rooms, too.

    When Piro returned to Bernice’s dorm room to crash, he said he’d been staying with a ‘buddy’ who ended up having a girlfriend stay over, so he had to leave.

    So, again, I figure Piro is homeless, and spends most of his time (like a lot of homeless folks) trying to find safe places to stay during the next night.

    And I can speak directly to the issue of homelessness and colleges. I was a volunteer for a crisis switchboard at the University of Arizona, way back during the Vietnam War. (That’s how old I am.) We thought we would be handling first year students who were depressed or what, but we ended up dealing with a bunch of PTSD vets who camped out in the desert at night, and hitched in to the campus during the day. There would be contractors who would drive by and pick up some of these guys for day jobs.

    And eventually our crisis switchboard (and the Campus Christian Center that housed it) was shut down by the police at the request of the ministers, because we had so many homeless vets and people who might otherwise have used the Center were afraid to come.

    None of the vets ended up in jail, though. As I recall, those that the VA couldn’t help were given bus tickets to other towns by the ministers…

    I wish we could learn more about Piro besides his relentless need for a place to stay which is repeatedly established. I was really hoping that Bern might play a role in drawing him out. Now…. gah!!!…. I’m beginning to wonder if he is (maybe) a better match for Tiffany. Both are opportunists with needs, though very different ones, but which could be complementary. She has this big plush pad with no one in it but herself. She wants company. He needs a place to stay…….voila………

    “This guy is a creep”….“what if Piro end up assaulting Tiffany?”-—————————————————————————————

    From what we have been shown Piro doesn’t have a mean or violent bone in his body. Tiffany tried very hard to seduce him last year. She received his puzzled gaze mostly. Piro’s needs are very very basic… food and shelter. Sadly we will not likely learn more about him until these needs are met.

    Even at the 2nd party, when Tiffany saw that Piro was there, she ran off and returned in a highly revealing outfit. But there was no corresponding response on his part. But when she announced that it would be cold outside he offered her his scarf. I do think Piro is a gentleman in spite of his situation. It would appear the students in the dorm see him as a known quantity and while ‘we’ do not know what led to his homelessness, I believe it is clear that he is not a physical threat to anyone, male or female. Frankly, Tiffany is more likely to try come on to him than the other way around.
