There's a smart-assed comment there about how half the inn definitely already knows he's gotten a proper welcome, but the roll of Phillip's hips steals the comment except for the smirk for it, and then the bite causes another sharp noise of pleasure and he just opts for,
"Yes," instead and it's a breath or two before he can manage to add, "They're going to stare anyway, might as well give them a reason."
It's both very much a Gus sort of quip to make and also implies a startling amount of boldness compared to how he was when he was younger. It's not as though Phillip hasn't seem ample evidence of that already, but it's probably still a little shocking.
