[It's so completely nonsensical. The man rambles and stammers and jumps from topic-to-topic, he unintentionally insults them, asks things not even Rue's dearest confidants would have the nerve to ask, and does it all with the least amount of charm and confidence possible.  

-- And what can Rue say but that they are immediately endeared to him. He reminds them so much of their dear friend, Prince Andhera, the singularly most awkward, stumbling, socially nervous soul they have ever met. But now it seems he might have some serious competition for the title.]


You ask such questions! [And Rue laughs, a soft, careful noise, but there's no missing the amusement that shines in their dark eyes now. Now that they have a frame of reference for this man, they see his strangeness as less offensive and more unintentionally awkward. And it's much more difficult to be offended knowing Rodney is simply out of his element and struggling for purchase.]

Dr. McKay, it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance, even with the circumstances surrounding us. Should we set out to explore this place together or do you feel we'd be safer waiting in this strange room for help? I shall leave the decision in your capable hands. I fear my own experience with humans has been fairly limited, I do not know what would be more beneficial to us.
