Ok cool ahah ! Looking forward to it !
Lisa Brenner
No, it will be a more random reason than that. Will be cleared up very quickly when the dialogue is there ;)
Noah
Thanks ! Also, were those guys making fun of Levi because of the conversation Piet and Levi were having?
Lisa Brenner
Yes. Levis Piet-imitation game is strong hair-wise.
Noah
Just to confirm, that’s Levi taking to Piet in the first couple of panels

Yup, yup, yup and yup. Especially the deodorant part. I think using it becomes a symbol of being A) a man and B) an adult. So it becomes a game of one-up-manship to be manlier and more grown up than the others until the locker room smells like a toxic waste ground. At some point they learn that dunking themself in a years worth of perfume at once is not a good idea if they want to seem mature to the ladies, at which point the air in the locker room becomes breathable again.
Lisa Brenner
Urgh, sounds tough. I just asked my sisters' boyfriend about his locker room experiences and he said: - looooooots of deodorant - boys behave like a brainless mob - hitting each others back with bare hands as hard as you can - hitting each other with towels as hard as you can Girls are more on the mental pressure side, comparing each others bodies, disparaging glances etc.
Anders
I'd argue it's even worse. Adolescent boys responding to the vulnerability of being undressed along side their classmates with testosterone filled chest-beating and aggression. I'm SO glad I'm done with school.
Lisa Brenner
It's a horrible place if it is like the girls' locker room, full of stale air and sheer awkwardness.
Anders
Ah yes, the boys' locker room; simultaneously the gayest and most homophobic place on Earth.
