Phil actually didn't look half-bad under his suit, either. It's just that no one ever saw him without it. He was in pretty good shape for someone his age who wore a suit every day. He worked out and he did more physical things in his job than a lot of people realized.
"I'll keep that in mind next time I was to play with some of the junior agents." He really wouldn't. The last thing he needed was more people making robot jokes about him. It was bad enough Clint made them and he didn't need any of the junior agents thinking that they could get away with what Clint could.
He stopped himself from rolling his eyes at that answer, but just barely. "You are not going to the gym. You haven't been cleared yet for it." He wasn't going to let Clint hurt himself further while he was still healing. The self-flagellation was getting old. If Clint wanted to mentally beat himself up, there wasn't much Phil could do, but physically? Phil had a professional and personal need to stop it. "And don't lie to me about that, because you know I get copies of everything. If you can't sleep, you need to find something else to do until you've healed more."
There. Now Phil just had to be ready for the inevitable fight that was coming. He knew Clint and Clint never gave anything up without a fight. He actually felt bad for people that Clint didn't like if this was the hard time he had to expect from the man.
