Tim gets to his feet as well, signalling that he too is ready to go back.
Dick just reels the subject back so easily to feelings, and everything Tim has done - every subtle steer of the conversation, teasing topics and jumping on anything else Dick brought up. Complete waste of time, because he hasn’t moved them an inch. “I’m really fine. I’m going to wait it out and see if everything doesn’t go back to normal on its own. If it doesn’t, well… I’ll figure out what to do with the new normal.”
That’s not what Dick wants to hear. Tim knows it’s not what Dick would do. “I’m not going to talk to Kon. I need to put distance there, because I’m not ready to mess that up more.”
