"Now, brother, I'm sure she's not that kind of girl."
Delicate emphasis on Gabriel's insistence as far as pronouns went, that long-suffering tone like he's humoring him with the concession. After all, he only cares about the TARDIS as far as she relates to Gabriel; beyond that, his interest would be limited and analytic in nature.
He can't say that he's surprised about the ribs; if he had some little human that he wanted to keep from prying angel eyes, that's what he would do as well. The difference being, of course, that he wouldn't be protecting a human to begin with, but still. It's a logical and not unexpected move.
"And do you think that I would enjoy that, Gabriel? Do you think I would enjoy lording your pain and loss over you?"
