Neal can't help but be somewhat pleased at the compliment, particularly since Jean-Paul already doesn't seem like the type to blow smoke. He smoothes a hand down his tie and tries his very best to remain humble while simultaneously basking in the good feelings. As confident as he can be, there's nothing like having a stranger's approval.
"Thanks," he says, appreciatively. "This one came with me. But I've been looking for more." Admittedly, he has strong feelings about designer suits, but even something that can be altered is better than no suit at all at this point in his life. "Although in this heat, something more casual or linen would be nice." He gestures to Jean-Paul's shirt. "Did you get that here in town?"
