I didn't really see Tilly as androgynous myself, but that's because she looks exactly like my mum (who laughed when I showed her, because it's true) :') Curious as to why she's been hired; perhaps Hannelore's mother is wanting her to aim for a more 'professional' career and has sent her an assistant as a slightly abrupt form of encouragement?
BenRG:
I have to say that I do suspect a manipulative agenda on Beatrice's part. I think that she wants to prepare Hannelore for her eventual place at the company, including trying to make Hannelore more selfish, abusive and callous. Giving her a dogsbody (Tilly), who I predict is neurotic and submissive to the point where it would be difficult not to abuse her, even if you didn't want to, is the first step. It wouldn't surprise me if Tilly had other standing instructions from her boss to push Hannelore into being more like Beatrice. For example, trying to arrange emotion-free hook-ups (ideally with submissive partners whom it would be easy to abuse), to find ways in which she can abuse and exploit her friends and other ways to profit herself or just amuse herself by causing harm to others.
Dark? Yes, but this is Beatrice we're talking about. The only reason she isn't a Bond villain is because acting within the law is an easier way of gaining power without consequence than being an international terrorist.
Gyrre:
Well, regardless of which of Hanners' parents sent her/them (whichever is applicable) Tilly is adorable.
Also, Hanners bedhead!

With all due respect to a fellow forum member, ain't NUTHIN' androgynous about Tilly's figure. Butt like dat gonna drive Pintsize batshit.

Figure is not the only aspect of appearance. I'm assuming the post was more referencing their clothing and hair. Also there's all mixes of bodies, identities and expressions so androgynous can come in many forms.

And speculating on someone's sexuality based only on perceptions/labels of their appearance is likely to get one in hot water!
--- End quote ---
Sexuality is not gender. However it is a worthwhile point that we've only just met this character so let's give them and Jeph a chance for us to get to know them.
What we can speculate on based on what we know... Does Tilly like sweet or savoury pancakes? :-P
traroth:
Does everybody sleep on the belly in that comic?
