Elizabeth's jaw slackened a bit as she watched her best first contact team come through the gate. Diplomatic training took over to school her face into kind concern. "Infirmary," John explained as he helped the limping Rodney. "He slipped at a critical moment."
Rodney was uncharacteristically silent, his face red and twisted with what she assumed was pain, but could possibly be humiliation considering the way he looked. She turned to Tayla with an arched eyebrow.
"We have secured a trade agreement for foodstuffs. They were quite impressed with Dr. McKay," Tayla informed her.
"And the...outfits?"
"Ceremonial robes," Ronan stated solemnly, his arms crossed as if holding something in.
They all watched as the two robed men disappeared around a corner. "Who knew Rodney would look so good in peach," Elizabeth mused aloud.
Behind her the other half of the team dissolved into loud and raucous laughter.
