[Alhaitham hums, and then nods when it occurs to him that said humming may not get picked up on. As proficient as Xehanort has proved himself to be, working with the younger man isn't like working with Kaveh, where their understanding of each other is so deep that all they need to communicate is a simple glance or a single touch. And while its not as if Alhaitham hasn't worked with others here, its still a process each and every time. Even after all his time here there are really only a few people who Alhaitham can find himself working with—but there is no doubt that Xehanort is one of them.
With the both of them clear on their next course of action, they part ways for now and head in their respective directions. Alhaitham goes the other way, which is likewise littered with feathers and chewed up sticks and other assorted plants, some of which he pauses to pick up and study as he moves along. While he's isn't from Armuta and doesn't hold as much of an interest in plants as Tighnari or even Kaveh, he knows the basics enough to potentially figure out what they may be dealing with here.

Alhaitham narrows his eyes as he nudges it with his foot. It certainly feels as solid as it looks, which means it could all too easily be some kind of projectile... certainly something to keep in mind.]
