Harpuia picked up the clothing that Zero had tossed off, taking a moment to look at the tags as he neatly returned them to their hangers. No reason to make a mess, after all. Shirts... overall, he would need something smaller. Pants size... that seemed a bit trickier, if he required a medium for one measurement but the others were positively dwarfed.
"Wait here." Another request-slash-command. Obviously this outfit wouldn't do, and neither would having Zero leave empty-handed and dissatisfied. He handed his own clothing, still untried, to Zero to hold onto, then turned and strode out before much time could be allowed for protest.
He knew that Zero likely wouldn't go into the children's section of his own free will, so Harpuia took the plunge himself. No point getting more shorts here, but he grabbed a shirt with a random cartoon character he didn't recognize -- hopefully the "large" on the label would be more soothing than the obvious place the shirt had come from. But... that was only half an outfit at best, wasn't it?
Harpuia paused, looking to the opposite side of the store. It, judging by the presence of mannequins in dresses on one half of the store only, was divided into mens' and womens' clothing. Hm... Well, it was true that women were, on average, shorter than men, and their clothing did have more room around the hips and thighs than menswear did. Would Zero perceive it as an insult if...?
Well, worth a try. Some randomly chosen shorts in a couple different sizes, maybe a shirt or two for good measure (all of the button-up variety that matched the school uniform, naturally). Arms full with this selection, Harpuia made his way back to the change room. He said nothing about which part of the store these had come from, only requested-slash-commanded, "Here, see if any of these fit."
