ambitions and enough people for an army
no? but he did say you Drakes do okay for yourselves, so I'm not that surprised

oh good, i'm thrilled he's talking us up so admirably
[ That's. That's sarcasm. ]
anything else i should know about?

[ If you get into trouble.
Usually the implication is don't bring it back to my doorstep but the hesitation makes him feel like the meaning isn't the same. Like Ian is trying to choose his words deliberately, so as to not be misunderstood - or maybe that's wishful thinking, that Nate's poor decision making won't drive someone away. The follow-up summarily clears him of doubts but it's also such a devastatingly funny addendum that Nate snorts into his Sunny D. ]
Well, Hell. [ He says with a distinctive air of teasing, smile wry over the lip of his glass, brightened by the levity. ] I could go for some neat walls.

[ It drives a soft, amused scoff out of him. Yeah, yeah, shut up, maybe he's not the best at delivering the appropriate amount (but not too much) of sincerity while stoned.
Good to have the lightness back, and it's written in his expression somewhere even as he lifts his eyes to shoot Nate a look.
Half-mutters: ]
Better than your walls anyway, Winnesota.

[It sure does come through, even in text.]
I'm no snitch.

[ That is exactly the response he anticipated and exactly the kind of thing he would have said to someone as a teenager, so he's obviously delighted. ]
oh, so he WAS shittalking me
oh, so he WAS shittalking me
[Oh he was fully shittalking you. And definitely not confirming, but-]
I'm rusty on the family thing but I think there might be a law about that somewhere

i can't tell if this is just you angling for matching tattoos or something
[ Having volunteered an otherwise exhausting amount of personal information Nate simply watches him, listens, opens his mouth at least once and shuts it again because his many questions - sudden, and numerous - spawning about the subject should be forced back down, and does his best to understand the connection.
It's a lot to absorb, more so when Stephen begins to glow and Nate's brow furrows at the small object that floats out like something from a bad, science-fiction B movie from the fifties. Except the effects are a little more impressive, and it's something he can actually touch. A kind of strange ring, some piece of jewelry in a style that looks vaguely familiar but only because of his wide exposure to various artifacts.
Stephen doesn't have to tell him twice. Ever tactile, Nate reaches out curiously without thinking and pulls it from the air.
The metal is warm and it feels a little bit like stepping off a building, a sensation with which Nate is regrettably familiar. Everything that follows is a flash in the pan, experience shockingly similar to what he already knows from personal experience, paired with a hunger for knowledge that Nate sees in a different light reflected in somebody else's mirror.
It's dangerous. Tempting. He's felt that before. Lightly: ]

Oh.
older brothers are legally obligated to make their younger brothers' lives a living hell. pretty sure they put that in the u.s. constitution.
Mhmm.
[ It's the only response he really needs to give. Truthfully, he doesn't know what that little object feels like himself. But Nate has clearly felt it in the transfer, and that's all he needs. It works. That's good enough. ]
You can keep it for a while.
[ If he wants to. If it'll help. There's no obligation, but without any other means of offering respite it's all he can think to give. ]
