23. Hands
Quatre's hands were paler than Duo's, and while Duo always had some dirt under his nails from his work, Quatre's hands were always manicured; but at the end, they were the same callous hands that piloted the Gundams, that killed and saved, that ended a war, and that for Duo and Quatre, no matter how much good they've done, would always look bloody.
