"That's what I just said to you," he answers, amused, then shrugs slowly. "I was working."
Freddie has never asked specific questions about what Philip does and he assumes that's for the best. There are some people who can accept his specific set of skills, some who even seem to enjoy it, but he's had the feeling that Freddie prefers not knowing any of the details, and that's always worked just fine for Philip. The fewer people who know what he does, the better, as far as he's concerned. Then there are fewer people who are able to turn him in if it ever comes to that.
"Headed home, then?" he asks. It's where Philip should be headed himself, especially after everything he's just done, but he likes being around Freddie. Even if Freddie does seem a little on the nervous side at the moment.
