Though he'd prefer it if she weren't nervous about him. He prefers not to hurt Vikings, and had only done so in the past at the command of the Green Death. May it not rest in peace.
There's no easy way to answer her, of course, and so Toothless half-raises his wings before folding them at his side again. He doesn't want to breathe fire, as that might alarm her, but he's not sure how else to indicate dragon.
