Mun recently rewatched canon (Red Dragon).

Third time isn't always "the charm", you know. Okay, it went surprisingly well the second time, but remember how it ended?

You'd have a lot of work to do, and I know you have none of the time you need for it. I know you're tempted, but focus on someone else for a change.

In any case, I'm already "retired". Just let sleeping dogs lie.

You might as well start packing now. You're not the type to just stay retired.

[That? Actually gets him to laugh a little.]

Unfortunately very true. It's practically the story of my life.

[Pause.] It's been a while, David. How have you been?

Let's hope it goes a little more smoothly than last time, huh?

[He's not wearing a big grin or anything, but he looks a lot happier than he was the last time they met. A lot healthier, too.]

I've been alright. Can't say I ever got to retire, but at least I've been getting to travel. I'm starting to think a reunion's around the corner, first I run into Bourne and now you.

You presume I'm actually giving in. I'm still resistant to the idea right now.

Maybe it's a seasonal thing. Once summer goes away, and the shiny new things aren't so shiny anymore, the muns want to return to what's comfortable.

[Blinks. Was he just trying to draw up a psych profile on muns? He shrugs.]

It's just a theory, anyway. But I'm glad you're still around. Looking a better than last time, too.

Heh. You haven't changed at all. [He shakes his head, amused.]

We both know you're gonna go. Even if you say you don't want to you'll end up going. There's guys who need you there, so really, you couldn't say no if you wanted to.

[He's not gloating. Well, maybe he's gloating just a little.]

I'm glad I'm still around too. Retirement's not really my style. [He laughs.] Especially now that I finally found something I'm good at.
