Summary
The full reason for why he dodges certain questions is a little more complicated. Usually he’d be glad to talk about his past, especially when it comes to Miles, but there is a little complication when it comes to talking to his subordinates. See, there is a good chance that if he starts talking about Miles, the fact they might mention the first time he and Miles met in court. And if they do, they might make a comment about how it was the first time they saw each other since they were kids. And if he does not voice his response to that very, very carefully, then Athena and Apollo will immediately realize he’s lying.
Because in reality, that is not quite the truth.

“So you’re a gentleman.” Phoenix says, and in a strange sort of word association that he’s not entirely sure makes sense even in his own brain, he follows that up with, “Does that mean you’re straight?”
“I do not believe being a gentleman requires heterosexuality,” the man states, which is such an unwieldy sentence that Phoenix almost wants to laugh, but his hindbrain has other concerns at the moment.
