I swallowed my greeting. He was wearing skin-tight leather pants tucked into thigh-high boots, so it was hard to tell where the pants left off and the boots began. The shirt was one of his typical shirts, something sort of 1700's, with mounds of ruffles at sleeves, and neck. But the color of all that silk was something I'd never seen him in.
