The “brother” relation was clearly predictable with Jil wanting so much to accompany Neeba. Seeing that scene makes it easy to notice the similarities in their hair (color, maybe style a little). I kind of wish they hadn’t revealed it so soon afterwards, but it’s understandable for Fatina to question Neeba on it. If the series had any reason to hide the information, the scene with Neeba telling Fatina could have cut out right before the relation would be spoken.
