Athena: Hee hee hee. You were so cute! ...And who's THAT fine-looking young man?

Apollo: That's Nahyuta, back when he used to smile.

[...]

Apollo: These pictures sure bring back memories. Nahyuta is cheerfully smiling in this one. That quiet smile he gives in court now seems almost fake by comparison.

[...]

Apollo: [...] (Before he goes, I'm going to turn back time by righting the wrongs that have been done. I'm going to restore Dhurke's freedom... ...and return a real smile to Nahyuta's face! I'm going to win this case. I just have to!)

[...]

Apollo: ......... (Dhurke, I hope you're watching. I proved your innocence... ...Nahyuta's smiling again... ...and that revolution you've always dreamed of... is finally happening.)

apollo's repeated reflections on nahyuta's smile throughout turnabout revolution and his desire to bring a real one back to his face instead of the fake one he's used up until then......augh. it's so fun to me

#fifteen years since you've seen your brother and he's acting like such a dick that you're ready to move the hell on without him #and your dad tells you that he's suffering and honestly that doesn't really explain anything at all. but #you remember the quiet gentle brother you were raised with. who's been in your memories since #before the time you could even remember anything at all. and if there's a chance that your dad is right. if there's a chance #that the brother you knew is still in there. that you might be able to bring back the smile you haven't seen in fifteen years.#then maybe all of this will be worth it.#off-topic but do you ever think about the 6-5 bad ending. where they don't prove #ga'ran guilty and apollo joins the defiant dragons with nahyuta. that was insane of them tbh #staying to help fix a legal system when the worst of everything is over is one thing. but staying when it's still at its absolute worst...#when the rebellion has been forced underground and you're eating lizards when you have an apartment and a job waiting for you #on the other side of the world. when you don't Have to be here but you are anyway....#(or. well. i guess ga'ran knows his face at that point but even still. apollo Could start over in the states if he wanted to)#i think about it sometimes. you could run but your brother is here. even after all this time #there's just something so fun to me about apollo and nahyuta only being a year apart because god they really don't remember #life without each other's existence in them do they #when they were with each other and when they were without each other later #but they always Knew the other was out there somewhere. even when they tried to forget
