[ Some part of his spirit returning to his body, Bolin tilts his head back as he straightens up so that he's facing the ceiling. ]
Yeah, I know. [ Sighing, he closes his eyes. ] I guess I just miss him.
[ He wonders what Mako would think, hearing Bolin say all these kind things about it. It's not like Bolin is shy about showing his brother affection: he's very open about drawing Mako into (sometimes unwilling) hugs, and telling him clearly that he loves him. They're brothers—family, and there's no one that Bolin values more in his life.
But that doesn't mean that he hadn't focused more on what about Mako made him envious more than what he admired about him. He never told Mako how incredible he thought he was; how strong he was for looking after him all these years, especially while mourning the loss of his parents. He'd never told Mako how proud he was for getting his shit together after screwing over Korra and Asami.

He wonders... if Mako's noticed that he's gone. ]
