"How about we pretend what came out of my mouth didn't actually. I'm having a weird moment. ...Okay, it's a long moment. I'm having a weird long moment." But he'll take on her clothes gladly. It's something else to distract? "I think it's just things catching up, and I'm gonna shut my god damn trap."
Do you know how weird things can get when you're stuck somewhere alone for 14 months? It's really through the virtue of Wash finding him and dragging him along with the others that he's even still been able to be properly social and fall back into the old routines. If Bifrons had decided to take him away from that lonely little base instead, things might be different. Add 'trying to be a civilian' to the zombie-blizzard-pocalypse, and yeah. Things are catching up when he has some quiet time to himself.
But he's gonna take a breath and let that long moment pass and be Tex's pack mule. "Hey, you better not get too much shit or you're gonna be popping my back into place. No piling the closet full of shoes." And by shoes he means combat boots. Those are even heavier.
