[Well that is certainly... a hand. And while Alhaitham would be lying if he said he wasn't intrigued, he's also far from the right mindset to pursue his own curiosities right now. As it is he's just doing his best to maintain his current disposition until he has the privacy and space to let it drop.
He watches the other being taken away for a bit (and their struggle to get back up which is failing terrible), and once its clear things are going on their way he turns around, making it clear enough that he's leaving the rest to Kaveh. He makes his way back to the table with its mostly empty chessboard, most of the pieces having fallen off during the scuffle earlier.
Shadowlily weaves around his legs as he starts picking said pieces up, meowing softly and rubbing her body over any part of Alhaitham that she can reach. Whether its her requiring comfort, or her wanting to give comfort is anyone's guess.]
