So, like... If you met someone in one identity and really clicked with them, you don't think they'd tell them anyways? I mean, I know that's usually how the superhero thing goes, but... Maybe it's different when it's not in a movie.
... My identity being compromised isn't just a problem for me. Figure me out, and they might figure out others I'm not willing to put into danger.
[ implying that if it was just him he wouldn't. care as much. ]
I have told people, but they've all been some I was absolutely sure I could trust with it. It's... a lot easier to find those on the mask side of things.
I've got friends. I've got... family. [ the non-dead ones, anyway. ] I might be more paranoid than most, but it hasn't stopped me from being close to people anyway.

So all your friends are involved in the same kind of thing you are?

[ hm. he tilts his head right back ]
... Yeah. I kept it up as a kid, but... the double-life thing gets a bit too complicated to get close to people who aren't in the know.

Kinda. There aren't that many people who know me as both Dick Grayson and Nightwing, even on the mask side of things. It's ... definitely a bit weird.

It makes sense. It just seems... kind of lonely, that's all.

Right. Sorry, I didn't mean to make it sound so depressing.
