Can't use dynamic content when 2 mail trigger are used

Hey,
just started to work with PA, so please have patients.

I want to build a flow which takes dynamic contents from two seperate mails which are in the same folder (shared mailbox) and paste these contents in an Excel online file. In the end the two different contents should be in the same table row based on a condition. It works perfectly fine when I use "When a new email arrives in a shared mailbox (V2)" as a trigger for "Mail 1" in my automated cloud flow. Here I use the dynamic contents in expressions, since most of the needed Info is in the dynamic content "Body" and therefore needs to be adjusted. But as soon as I include a second trigger to define the layout of the "Mail 2" and I can't refer to the dynamic contents as I could with "Mail 1". It only offers me then "body" (notice, no capital B) and "value", when I try to mention these in expressions. "Subject" and other contents are missing completly in expression. When I try to pick "Body" without expressions, it automatically switches to "Apply each" which makes matters even more confusing for me.

I tried a different approach with a time defined trigger and then starting parallel branches for "When a new email arrives in a shared mailbox (V2)" but ended with the same result.
What am I doing wrong and is there a better way to refer to two different mails in one flow?
