[whatever he was expecting apollo to say, this isn't it. putting himself out of reach, midnighter spends a long while standing there in silence, gaze fixed on his husband with an intensity usually seen in battle rather than conversation.

when he finally does break his own silence, his expression remains hard, anger barely restrained. apollo said "i", not "we". meaning he has no plans on taking midnighter with him, and that's the part that sets him on edge.]

I suppose we'll find out if the space suits can make it through reentry tomorrow then. Might have to take a second oxygen tank.

[the assumption being that he's going with apollo. there's no way he's going to sit back and let his husband go down there alone.]
