Is this thing recordi- Oh.
[Nate isn't really that good at introductions nor is he any good at handling the SmartPhone capabilities of his new communications, but he's been trying, and as he once overheard a fancy guy quote at a black market auction: to try is to live.
(At the time he'd been checking the lot list and privately drawing conclusions about why Jack Rackham was given an inlaid cross, when a man four feet away started telling a story about how his shitty French was insulted by a crêpe vendor and he paid some thugs to rough him up later. Rich people, right? The worst.)
What started out as blurry footage of worn boots turns into slightly-more-focused footage of Nate's face. He looks well enough, if windswept, though it is evident he is somewhere far from ground level if the small buildings behind him are any indication.]
For those of you who haven't met me yet, I'm Nathan Drake.
[Flawless introduction. Short and sweet.]
Just gonna throw a general question out there: is there a more...comprehensive version of the city map outside that mural? Does anyone go into the caves to try and get the lay of the land in detail? And, uh, follow-up: how opposed would anyone be to me updating that stuff?

You got me there, pal. Can't say I've seen a three-headed snake.
[A beat.]
...were they cool?

[ Although. ] ...They were kinda cool looking too. The heads started fighting with each other and I blasted them to pieces with my gun. [ That last part may only be half true at most, considering the help he had, but still. ]

[Even as an irresponsible person in many respects, Nate does have his limits. (Paperwork, for one. He's been getting that done a lot more expediently these days, though.) He used to carry a sidearm in broad daylight on the job, but he's an adult and is pretty fluent in gun safety at this point in his life.
Also, it's tasteless to do the same for his legitimate profession, especially in Louisiana. He's a white guy, but he's not that white guy.]
What are you, ten? Twelve?

[ He's spent well over a year in a totally different town of horrors before this one, and dates are by now something he's given up on. ]
I'm still old enough to be able to kill snakes.
