They are "nuts". Anyone with the genetic connection to Shy of the Vella Crean can be said to have at least a little crazy in them. In this case, a lot crazy. But it's subtle. They're not all up in your face about their crazy. Oh no. That would be crass. Mentioning Raiden's habit of producing half-animal offspring - also crass. Probably get you killed. Or worse, bred to him.

To be fair, Ruby did not actually bear either of these children to her partner Shy. They were whipped up in Aperture's lab, Shy making comments as GLaDOS mixed and matched the pair's genetics. Shy definitely likes them, Ruby is proud to say that she's their mother - at least in a way. That cruel streak of hers? The one she got from 'both sides' of her family? It continued on in Rin and Raiden very strongly indeed.

Both of them are remarkably precise, physically as well as verbally. GLaDOS taught Rin many unusual lullabies. Shy offered his hand at genetic engineering. No one really gave them instructions on how not to be completely scary.
