[After Nathan Drake unexpectedly encounters Harry Flynn in a local town. One shot conversation in which Nathan vents and Chloe has to explain what happened back after Shambala.]

"Chloe! When were you planning to tell me about Flynn?"

"What?"

"Flynn. The whole he just jumped me out of nowhere and nearly killed me with confusion and a side order of shock, when last time I checked he was still rotting in Shambala!"

"Nate. Calm down. I couldn't leave him down there with all them things. What would that of made me? We had to get him out either way. Dead or alive."

"Woah, hold on. We?"

"…Oh, sweet bollocks.. Me and Victor."

"Oh, this just keeps getting better! Sully was in on this too? Was it straight after the destruction?"

"Yes. I spoke to him one night when you were tending to Elena and asked for his help. He met me at the village gates as soon as Elena was well enough to walk."

"What convincing must you of given him to help rescue Flynn? I don't- I don't get it. He hated Harry Flynn ever since we met him years back. Always called him a cocky arrogant f—"

"He knew how much it meant to me, Nate. I lost you the minute Elena came into the picture. And selfishly, I didn't want to be alone. Victor saw that."

"Ha, yeah, I bet he did. How many times did you sleep with him to reach an agreement?"

"I don't think that's any of your business."

"So you did?"

"No! Victor has a big heart to cater for others. Not like some people."

"And what's that supposed to mean?"

"The only way a woman can make you turn completely around and say yes is if they soil your sheets."

"Ew. I'm not like that and you know it."

"Isn't that how we met?" Chloe dug, folding her arms in small triumph.

"Well what about now then? You two still together or what? Were you together when we were working in London?"

"…Yes. He was back in London with me but agreed to stay out of Charlie's way because of their feud in the past."

"Oh right, so looking back at it all. I was the only one who didn't know Flynn was alive?"

"Well, we knew what you would of done. Sought out some revenge on him for endangering Elena's life."

"Elena.. Please tell me she weren't part of it."

"No.. We didn't see any point in telling her anything."

"Oh thank god."

"But he was genuinely sorry for pulling that stunt, Nate. He apologised like crazy when we first got to him, kept asking if Lazarevic was dead yet. He wasn't in a good state."

"How did he survive?"

"When we got to the room, the stone that had been geld in the trunk had shattered everywhere. We assumed some of the essence pierced Harry's skin somewhere. All of his other injuries from the grenade healed or were on the mend when we approached him. Nate, he was so relieved to see us."

"So remove the shard and he'll drop down dead?"

"Nate!"

"No, no. Just so I got the upper hand if he tries anything again."

"So are you going to tell me what happened between you two? Where is he?"

"..I punched him and he fled." Nate shrugged.

"That it?"

"It was more of an uppercut nose break sort of punch. I'm sure if I could of been arsed, I would of followed the blood trail."

"He probably only came to apologise.."

"Yeah, putting a gun to my head and taunting me about it. Yeah, that sounds like Flynn's sort of apology alright."

"If I ring him, you promise not to provoke him?"

"Provoke him? He'll be the one to throw the first punch!"

"Promise me, Nate."

"..I won't hit him. But why'd he pull a gun on me? Ask him on the phone."

Chloe sighed aloud and pulled her phone out, dialling Harry's number. "Harry. It's Chloe—"

"Why'd you pull a gun on me, dick?!" Nate shouted over her shoulder, hoping it would reach the receiver. There was a slight muffle on the line from what he could hear before Chloe swung away and shoved him back.

"He said you threatened him first."

"He got violent first."

"He says you were first to throw a punch."

"…He's lying, obviously." He scoffed.

"He says he just wanted to apologise and you got all heated about it and started throwing a hissy fit." She shrugged again, her lips struggling to keep straight against the threatening smile.

Nate looked ready to defend himself but then realised that was probably what he was after so he shut his mouth defiantly. "Tell him it's over. We're never getting back together!"

Chloe listened to Flynn's response. "Alright Taylor Swift keep your hair on. He wasn't looking for a job anyw-" Flynn interrupted her. "-He wanted to offer you one."

"Huh. Look how the last one panned out. Him supposedly dead, Elena almost dead, me coming up a close third on one too many occasions. I'm done with all this crap. No, Flynn. You hear me? N. O."
