Sentence # 23

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.

I'm really enjoying these. Your sentences are just perfect.

Like this one; yes they are different but also similiar. And Gundam pilots, like all soldiers, no matter their background, wouldn't be able to rid themselves of the blood on their hands.

Thank you!

I agree, all the pilots would find it difficult to forgive themselves, no matter how much good they've done. I think the bad would always weight on their conscience.
