It's alright, Ben, he doesn't understand what your noises are either.
Nihlus gives Ben's outstretched hand another incredulous look, but doesn't hesitate long before reaching out with his own hand (two fingers and a thumb)... without, however, actually touching Ben's. Hand contact as a form of greeting is not uncommon, mostly favoured by the asari - but Nihlus isn't familiar with the ways of this planet. He tilts his head expectantly, waiting for Ben's reaction.
The other gesture, though, he identifies as introduction easily enough. He nods and repeats what he thinks is the boy's name.
"Eyme Ben," his pronounciation is still off, some sounds too rough, but he's managing it better than his attempts at pronouncing "earth". Similar to Ben's gesture, Nihlus rests his other hand on his chestplate. "Nihlus Kryik."
