"And purple," said the French teenager, sounding highly impressed with this.

Adrian smiled down at him.
"I apologize in advance for disappointing you, then."

Standing, still holding the cup near his mouth, he sauntered over unpretentiously and slunk in behind him.
"Can I pick?"

"But there's no one here to see me - "
Said the boy with confused eyebrows and a mouth that was maybe a bit more of a bewildered pink pout than usual. Maybe.

"I mean that I should prefer to go unrecognized today, if that is at all possible."

"So you want me to pick out something that doesn't look like you?"
He shouldn't have sounded like that, but - no, there it was. The telltale signs of faint excitement were undeniably in the youngster's voice, even though he was the very picture of modesty, both hands cupping the mug as he sipped hot cocoa.

The boy was like a damn kitten.
"I'm sorry," he sighed, resigning himself to the fact that there would likely be many, many more apologies in the future.

Adrien shrugged a little and took another sip.
"Something that doesn't make you look like Adrian Veidt, I mean? Something less..."
His voice was smaller, but he hadn't wavered.

"That was rather the idea."
His voice was gentle.

Adrien stepped up and slipped under his arm. He barely had to duck to fit; he was the perfect size for this.
Rubbing his cheek against Adrian's chest, he nodded in the direction of the walk-in closet. "So, like, what all do you have? Most of your clothing is kind of - flashy."

"I prefer to keep a few things on hand for occasions like this."
