Al was glaring at his phone irritably while sitting on his furpile in his room. He so did NOT need checked up on. Both hands were definitely attached okay. He looked from one hand to the other then snorted at Twitter irritably.

Jordan used the time it took to walk down the stairs to compose himself, smooth the grin off his face, and arrange his expression into a suitably concerned look. This wouldn't work if he didn't have the right worried look on.
When he rapped on the doorframe of Al's room, he had managed to suppress the urge to laugh sufficiently to be wearing a solemn, faintly concerned expression.

"I don't need checked up on!" Al shouted at the fabric concealing the view of Jordan.

"Are you sure? If it's really gone, you should have that treated as quickly as possible," Jordan called back. "Before it's too late."

"But I'm looking right at it!" Al shifted his body around to face the cloth and hold up both hands "See? Quit being silly."

Jordan pulled the cloth aside and tilted slightly to the side so he could get a look at Al's hands. His expression shifted slowly from concern to dismay, eyes slowly widening as he stared fixedly at Al's left hand. "Oh. Oh no."

Al gave Jordan a look like he was nuts, "What? I'm fine. See?" He waved both hands wildly.

"You know, some illusions can persist for a remarkably long time," Jordan said gravely.

"You're ... still seeing that hand?" Jordan asked.

"Yes. I see both my hands. They work too!" He juggled his phone from one hand to the next.

"You're ... sure you don't want to go on over to the infirmary?" Jordan's tone was gentle, slightly questioning, his eyebrows furrowed with concern and a little alarm.

"But you just saw me use my hands..." The pitch of Al's voice may have gone up a bit into the soprano range.

Jordan nodded slowly, not saying anything, the crease between his eyebrows deepening.
Then, suddenly, the worried set of his mouth trembled and dissolved into a grin, and he lost the battle with laughter. "Almost had you there," he managed, and cracked up again.

Al looked concerned for a moment before his jaw abruptly set and his lips pressed thin. "You're an a**."
Then he immediately crossed his arms and humped.
