Phillip was always a professional, past the playful banter and pep talks he'd give the Shadows. He knew privacy, and he knew you had a reason for hiding your face, which was never his business.

It's unfortunate that his unspoken respect for your boundaries were broken as soon as he walked into your barracks without warning. A flash of your uncovered facial disfigurement is all it takes for him to freeze in place.

He quickly whispers out a quick apology and looks away from you uncomfortably. Not because of your face, but because he ruined this for you.
