She gives the Doctor a withering look. Someone comfortable around a demon goddess was hardly going to be bothered by the fact that he was an alien.
To Connor:
"The Doctor is, on occasion, a champion for humanity. Like your father, though with only slightly more regard for the actual morality system of humanity as I have."
There's a faint note of... not quite disdain. Exasperation, perhaps. Something that set them apart from her. She was no champion for humanity. Except sometimes by accident.
But implicit in the words were something else, something these more-human creatures needed. You can trust him.
To the Doctor:
"You can return him to his home after we've removed the offending metal from his shoulder?"
It was phrased as a request, but with Illyria all requests carried a bit of implicit warning as to what would happen if they were not granted.
