"---As if you would bust my ass in a lawsuit after everything we've gone through so far.", Stephen hums, arching a brow, accompanied by a smirk as bright eyes flick over to Tony, "Aren't we sort of, you know, buddies by now? Pals? Bros? Whatever one calls it nowadays. I mean, we fought together, had each other's backs... a small, tiny slap against an ass shouldn't really cross any borders by now anymore, in my humble opinion."
At least that's what the sorcerer hopes should be the case. He doesn't get to dwell on it for much longer, though, because...
Yeah, of course Iron Man is complaining about his previous choice of words. It pulls a sigh out of a set of full lips, gaze now focusing back on that robot that comes closer to them, beeping angrily as if truly annoyed by the Cloak's presence; Maybe it is, who is Strange to judge? He's the master of a sentient piece of garment, after all, and actually quite close to it as well.
So... being close to a somewhat-sentient robot isn't that odd to begin with.
"---Alright, sorry about that, Dummy. ...Uh, Dum-E, sorry. You're... definitely not a thing."
A scarred hand reaches out, pats the thing as well, just like Tony did seconds earlier - yeah, feels weird, but then it had taken Stephen some days to get used to the sensation of petting his Cloak as well.
The mentioned Cloak stops its motions, stiffens, and then zips back over to drape itself almost dramatically so over its favorite pair of shoulders; It clings a bit more tightly to his clavicles, and Strange lets out a soft oof at the sensation, knitting his brows while side-eyeing the red collar that stands tall and proud around his neck.

"Calm down, no need to be jealous.", he mumbles into the fabric, to which it seems to... soften, just the slightest bit.
A roll of bright irises, an exhale escaping a set of nostrils; Stephen glances back over at Tony, an amused grin appearing on his lips. "I'm sure they'll get along nicely. Just have to, uh, warm up a bit with each other."

"Cause lawsuits in regards to sexual harrassment are never fun, trust me on this." Tony had had to deal with his fair share of those in his time before he became Iron Man, and he would be forever thankful for Pepper and her team of lawyers who took care of those claims.
He crosses his arms over his chest, eyes narrowing as he sees how the cloak starts to circle around Dum-E who in return continues his angry beeping. His glare turns immediately back to Stephen when he refers to his bot as a thing. How dared he?!
"His name is Dum-E and he is not a thing." He may be saying some mean things to his bot now and then, but he loved this little disaster, cared for him like he did for all inventions. "If your cloak missed me so much, he should behave or he can stay outside of my workshop. I will not have him pestering my poor bot."
Dum-E gave another loud beep at that as if to agree with Tonys statement, before rolling into the direction of his creator, while making a shooing motion at the cloak with his claw.
The brunet patted his bot when he came closer, as if to comfort him. "Never refer to him as a thing again. He has feelings too."
