[ ooc: tbf there was a bit of sibling squabbling involved and alisaie at the wheel, so ,,, REALLY ,,, he's innocent in all of this and gets first dibs on scheduling for alisaie's car ]
[ Hmm.
The plastic mannequin in the passenger's seat does not miss Alphinaud's notice, and in fact provides a little more context for what may or may not have happened had things gone just a hair more awry.
He's still more concerned about the man he'd nearly had a collision with, but we're going to circle right back to it in a moment. He studies Stephen for any obvious injuries, and then satisfied with his assessment, quickly turns back to his car, clicks a button on his keyring to lock the thing with its signature beep-beep!, and then his attentions are back on the other man.
(You see, there was a whole thing where Alisaie's car had then been taken for a joy ride by some nameless, faceless masked man in red just after the incident with Alphinaud's ... anyway, since then they've been more careful about leaving the car unattended.) ]
It's quite all right. I'm just relieved no one was hurt. [ He's genuine when he says it. ] And I do not mean to presume, but I cannot help but think that perhaps it has something to do with the companion in your car.
