[It takes a little bit for Huvrye to pull back from his awe and get down to the business of clothes shopping - namely, figuring out how to clothes shop. He's done a bit of it before, but this is a slightly larger scale.]
[Otto helps probably more than he knows - with the basics, sure, but it's the encouragement that really does it. Bolstered by Otto's advice, Huvrye tends to gravitate towards brighter colors - blues and pinks and greens, contrasting everything he's ever worn and how utterly dull and boring he's considered himself to look his entire life. There's some sensibility in there - sturdy shoes, jeans and slacks and shirts of different sleeve lengths and weights, some black and white and khaki to offset the brightness of the colors - but the colors are still very much the main thing. By the time they're done - and a very pleased salesperson (who is getting one heck of a commission from all of this) is packing everything securely into bags - Huvrye is smiling easily, in a way he hasn't had reason to in a while.]
Hey, thanks for your help. I don't think this would've been nearly as easy without you.
