It took a hell of a lot of effort for Rogue to stop herself from grimacing or rolling her eyes at Woolsey's words. He could be such an ass at times. Yes, he might have some justification in his distrust of Todd, but the commander had proven himself trustworthy in Rogue's opinion, at least so far as Atlantis was concerned. At this point in time, there was no good reason for Todd's hive to turn against Atlantis, it would only hurt their chances at coming out on the winning side of this civil war. But Woolsey wasn't the sort to listen to that sort of reasoning, or at least not to act on it, and she honestly couldn't say if Sheppard and his team would be any different.
"He's just as charming as I remember him," Rogue commented quietly, her tone as sour as her opinion of the man. Giving a slight shake of her head, she turned to face the commander and queen. "Who will be the third party going with you to the city?" she asked carefully.
Before the communication with Woolsey, she'd been planning to go to the city herself, but now that they were limited, she didn't want to take the spot if Todd or the queen would have need of someone else during their stay. She wanted them to know that, and so her tone was neutrally curious rather than fearfully hopeful. And just because she was human herself, mostly, she had no preconception of being an exception to the rule in Woolsey's book.
