[That's not a new attitude in Dick's experience and he's not surprised. Not given what they've learned about this place.
Yet his smile doesn't really falter, small and kind of crooked as he shrugs.]
Probably not given the kids I quit the force to take care of aren't here and really they're good kids but on their own? Yeah, that's not the best scenario.
[So he just hopes the others are there for them. He's pretty sure if he goes missing they'll turn to Donna and Dawn. He hopes.]
Though it's got about the same amount of crime in the city I grew up in, which is not entirely settling but why I turned to trying to clean things up for kids like them... and me.
[Okay so not so much for him but still. He was an orphan that had to be taken in too. So he's twisting things a bit. It's to help the kid, after all.]
