[ that username flashes with the notification and stops Rafe even deader in his tracks than usual. no way. there is no goddamn way this is—
it's a common enough name, logic points out. out of infinite worlds out of infinite dimensions (Harley had called it a multiverse once before he'd stopped her, not wanting the headache, but maybe he should've let her go on) there is zero reason to presume it has anything to do with him.
but it's that name and Rafe's still getting used to the whole text-messaging-in-his-head deal so before he can think better of it: ]
you have got to be fucking kidding me

wait.
oh no. there are two Drakes. oh, hell no. he will find a goddamn airlock if that's the case. ]
why don't you start with a name for yourself

didn't realize anyone even played twenty questions anymore
at least not outside of unbearably boring road trips
but all right
i'm going to guess that you're...tall, obnoxious, suffering from a penchant for buried treasure and bad hair
am i close?

( guess what this basically is an unbearably boring road trip. they're just in space now. strange how that description is awfully on the nose, too. he's starting to wonder if they already know each other. treasure hunting is a small business, after all, and that bloody anomaly already brought nate in with him, so who's to say it couldn't bring in others? he doesn't pretend to know how it works. )
close...ish
depends on your definition of bad hair
( because, yeah, that's the one thing to take offense over. he knows exactly how obnoxious he is. )

[ another emotionally-charted mental text equivalent of a butt-dial, paired with a sudden drop in temperature for whomever's unlucky enough to be near Rafe at present. ]
i define it as using too much cheap gel to slick back what little you have left from your dramatically receding hairline
[ a part of him is mildly surprised, that after all that's happened and all he's seen and done and been through, he's still able to be pissed at Sam Drake almost a year removed from how thoroughly he'd tried to screw Rafe over. that that much of who he was and what he did before is still relevant, still there beneath the blackened and dessicated skin. ]

it's right in the username, you enormous pain in th
( well. now harry's really paying attention. you know, considering there are only two drakes and one of them is (supposed to be) dead. harry's not that much of an idiot that he can't put two and two together, especially when it's fairly clear whoever he's talking to isn't referring to nate. (but he would argue, of course, that nate is just as obnoxious.)
so while he can't be fully certain he's right (unless there's a big something he's missing here), he sure as hell can still play along. )
no you're right it doesn't work
just doesn't have the same kick as "dear" does it

[ the random endearment does more to disprove Rafe's guess than anything else. Sam was more than happy to drop in an overly sarcastic "yes, dear" whenever the mood struck but "darling" is a bridge too far for his fragile masculinity.
but this guy accepted the buried treasure bit without confusion or debate, and he still has that goddamn username. why would that be if it weren't— ]
still waiting on you to knock off this big air of mystery you're putting on, buddy
