[He agrees he's plenty nice! But that certainly hasn't earned him many friends. Granted, here he hasn't had the chance to indulge in being the flirty drunkard he is back home... but that's neither here nor there!
But as she goes on to describe what she saw, he falls silent. He turned into a dragon? That'd be the same as telling some christian you saw them turn into a demon, and so there's an awkward silence.
