"I don't think our sex tape would be as popular as Stark's." More dry humor to keep things settled. They are still them even if they're taking another step forward in their relationship.
Phil brushes his thumb back and forth across Clint's knuckles because he can and finds it soothing for himself. "I don't think history matters too much. As long as we keep talking to each other, we should be fine. My previous relationships have usually ended because they figure out I'm not telling them everything."
And he can't because his previous relationships were all with civilians who didn't have the security clearance to know what he did. That's one thing Phil doesn't have to worry about. Clint generally knows exactly what he's working on because Clint's working on it too.
"And I'm not going to ask you to give up your bachelor apartment," he says, "I know you need space sometimes."
