( the derisive soft snort he gives at that makes it clear he knows she's just being nice. this outfit is hideous!!! he is a man of taste! a man of class! a man who has louboutins in his closet! not this crap. and, he knows he looks silly in it even if he pretends he doesn't. because, regardless of being in this place where no one knows him, he feels he still needs to upkeep his persona. that's more important than being a petulant child about his clothes.
even if he might be that way on the inside. that's fine. no one can see that.
anyway.
the expression on his face softens somewhat when he sees the question actually flustered her. while this woman might not be her, he still can't seem to shake that ghost of familiarity and wanting to see how far that flush can go. but, he knows that's just the devils of this place talking and he'd never dream of forcing someone to do something that clearly makes them uncomfortable. he ain't about that kind of life. so, he smiles at her and somehow resists the urge to ruffle her hair in a friendly, but intimate gesture ( in fact, he curls his hands at his sides to physically stop himself from doing so ). )
Your comfort is more important than me finding a way out of these clothes. ( he flicks at a button on the shirt ) I can figure something out, I'm sure.
