[Alhaitham patiently waits to the side for Freminet to do his work, which really doesn't take very long at all. He watches as the ice forms where Freminet directs it, thickening and strengthening the otherwise narrow bridge.
...at the very least said bridge is high enough from the lava that the ice doesn't melt all at once, but its still notably quick, and the sizzling that sounds out as the melted ice drips down serves as a reminder that they don't exactly have all day.
Which is to say once Freminet takes those first few steps and nothing happens Alhaitham just takes that as the cue for them to keep going. He jerks his head for Freminet to keep on moving as he comes to a stop right at the edge of the bridge itself, figuring that it'd be safer for them to cross one at a time just in case.]
