Sphene thought marrying Apollo would mean worrying for his physical safety as he went off to save the world time and again, not that of his mind as he went out grocery shopping. Alas...

1. Apollo in a black t-shirt and blue jeans, in a market in Ul'dah. His arms are crossed and his expression is annoyed as he looks at an off-screen merchant. > Apollo: No offense, really, I'm sure you're a swell girl. But I'm not interested in random women coming up to me and offering to sell me a so-called "mind control collar." > Apollo: I've spent enough time in Ul'dah to know a scam when I see one. Goodbye.
2. Apollo is now shirtless and wearing a white collar with a glowing pink screen on the front. Words float around his head - "don't think, just obey, mind off, doll on" - and his eyes are completely hollow, without pupils. His expression is slackjawed and vacant. > Apollo: Yes, miss... I'll come with you... > Apollo: I'm very sorry for saying "no" to you, miss... It won't happen again...
= Collared =
Life pro tip: after you tell a merchant selling mind control collars "no", make sure they aren't following behind you with one ready to snap around your own neck.

The Scions in a dungeon, dressed as though they were D&D characters. From left to right, we have Alphinaud as an assassin rogue in black leather armor with daggers at the ready, Thancred as a valor bard in fancy red clothes playing a violin, G'raha as a devotion paladin in shining white armor with sword and shield at the red, Krile as a berserker barbarian in typical barbarian attire ready to strike something with her axe, Apollo as a war cleric in white and red armored robes with hammer and shield in hand, Urianger as a fiend warlock in dark red coat and hat taking notes, and Y'shtola as a necromancy wizard in grey robes and pointy hat reading a book. Behind them, seemingly unnoticed by the entire party, is a massive mind flayer.

Halmarut's been keeping a close eye on the Source's vaunted hero. Perhaps a wee bit too close, if Apollo and Sphene feel comfortable trying to hit on her.

A closeup to Apollo's groomsmen (technically usher is more appropriate since they're of mixed genders); Diana (a light-skinned half-Miqo'te, half-Garlean girl) in a red dress with black trim, Alisaie in a black suit with red tie, and Estinien in a white dress shirt with a blue vest and tie. Diana and Alisaie are cheering, while Estinien is calmly standing.

A close-up of the other side of the chapel. Left to right, front to back: - Fostis (a dark-skinned Rava Viera man) in a black dress shirt and blue vest, clapping softly. - Cybelese (a light tan-skinned Keeper Miqo'te woman) in a blue and black dress/coat, with her hands clasped together in happiness. - Tataru, in a pink dress and sunflower corsage, happily cheering. - Keltywyda (a green-skinned Sea Wolf Roegadyn woman) in a turquoise dress, cheering boisterously. - Sasanori (a tan-skinned Dunesfolk Lalafell man) in a black suit, clapping joyfully.

Meanwhile, Apollo holds a hand onto Sphene's head, forcing her to suck more.

Juksie is giving Apollo a kind of cocky smile, while Apollo is focused on Shrike. Juksie: C'mon, don't tell me you're getting gender envy or whatever from this edgy bastard. Apollo: Eh, it's probably nothing.
2. Apollo and Juksie are on a ship sailing through the Ruby Sea c. 4.3, Apollo is sitting on the railing and clutching her stomach after a particularly hard fight against Hien. She's giving a rather pained smile while Juksie leans against the railing and looks at her with a somewhat knowing expression. Juksie: So, is there a particular reason the manifestation of your self-esteem and repressed emotions uses he/him pronouns? Apollo: Eh, it's probably nothing.
3. Apollo and Juksie in the Crystarium immediately post-5.0. Apollo is staring up at the night sky from one of the long bridges of the Crystarium, while Juksie leans against the bridge's railing and looks at Apollo with a befuddled expression. Juksie: Wait, so the alternate reality version of yourself, who looks like you, acts like you, and has a lot of the same emotions and motivations you do... is a trans man? Doesn't that... say anything? Apollo: Eh, it's probably nothing.
4. Apollo and Juksie in the Neon Stein post-7.0. Apollo rushes up to Juksie with a worried expression, while Juksie looks at him with extreme annoyance. Apollo: Juksie, I have something to tell you, and I realize this may be a bit of a shock but... I think I'm transgender. Juksie: OH, YOU DON'T FUCKING SAY.

Juksie has known Apollo for almost three years, and in that time she's been waiting for one particular shoe to drop. Unfortunately, Apollo's about as dense as solid steel, even when it comes to this Warrior of Light's own emotions.
