[Dick knows it's hard, and honestly, he doesn't really want to leave some stuff behind. Sara, for one, even though he knew she was leaving too, and Rorschach and Cass and everyone else, but. He wanted to go home.
Still, he hugs her back tightly, and tries to remember that they'll do okay here without him. That this isn't really goodbye.]
I know. I'd say I'll miss you, too, but I'll probably be seeing you as soon as I get home, so. [It's said like a joke, in an attempt to lighten the mood. Your call on how successful it is.]
