A small hand on his horn wasn't the most frequently felt sensation. He didn't exactly host weekly movie nights. Contact, he knew; hell, he slept in a pile of coyotes every day. But human hands were nice in their own way. Particularly when they gave him a welcome scritch behind the ear.
He wouldn't say this was why he did what he did, but it was a nice side benefit.
He gave the woman another hopefully-reassuring lick. She seemed calm enough that she wouldn't panic if he moved. Hard to tell, she seemed kind of out of her mind, a little, and also kind of uh...
Well. He didn't have to rescue geniuses a lot, like he said. Still, she sounded more invulnerable than he was; he'd been hurt by a point blank elephant gun. He didn't want to try his luck with C4 anytime soon. But that was no excuse for wandering into the desert! One could test ones abilities in a lot of other, safer ways than just... just wandering out into the desert. Goodness. What would she have done if he hadn't showed up? Ah, well, no need fretting over that. He had. Everything would be fine now, and she didn't have to worry about dying or not-dying, which sounded much worse.
He moved, not quite standing up, just sort of shifting along the ground until he was perpendicular to her. He looked pointedly at his back, then nudged her shoulder again. Things were easier if people figured it out themselves. He absolutely could pick someone up--gently--in his jaws and toss them onto his back like a sack of potatoes. He did it all the time. But it would probably a lot less mortal-terror-y if she put two and two together herself. He gripped them hem of her sleeve cautiously between two teeth and pulled her pointedly towards him. C'mon. Up.
