He's bad at this, kind of always fumbling his way through conversations like this, and he kind of misses Escha all over again because he thinks she'd know something better to say.

...am I distracting you? [It's an offer for an out. He isn't touching the Wally subject again on his own and he's not leaving if Dick actually wants him to stay just for company but it's a weird sort of bind. Back to passing the power to someone else then.]
