[ He absolutely hasn't answered her questions yet, but the moment her eyes catch the cloak he offers, she can't look away. Her hand rises hesitantly, then darts out to take it as if he might suddenly change his mind and snatch it back.
After numbly finding the edges of the material, she throws the cloak over herself, immediately drawing its hood as low as it will go on her head. He's already seen her face, so trying to conceal it now will make little difference; at this point, it's an action purely for her own benefit.
After a stretch of silence to give her nerves a chance to cool and the cloth to warm her body, she finally hazards a look at her savior(?). Her immediate impression... is that he looks shady. But the fact that he's thought to lower himself to match her meager five feet in height suggests that he's trying in his own way. Though... his eye(s) being in such a direct line of sight makes her uncomfortable in a different way.
Next she notices the massive pair of fluffy ears on his head, her eyes widening as they linger there for a bit longer. But she's seen all kinds of strange people with strange features, so she refrains from commenting. ]
... Thank you.
[ Her hood bobs gently with gratitude, and she finally straightens to not-quite her full height. ]
