V isn't specifically looking for Leo when they pass close by - this isn't the first time they've come across the strange plants in the forest, though perhaps the closest they have approached - but seeing someone just casually not moving gives them a spike of concern through their synthetic nerves.

"Hello? Can you hear me?"

M-Bot, always close by when V is scavenging, hovers slightly above the Synth's shoulder, alert for any approaching monsters. There are things that calm the two, but the urge to be still and rest is absolutely not one of them.
