Summary
What Bruce wants to say is that Nightwing has other commitments, to Bludhaven, to the Titans. Even though he knows its not a good enough reason. Because what Bruce actually wants to say is that he wants to keep Nightwing as far from the worst of the threats as possible. His son, Dick, should have a different life, a better one. He'd hoped that moving to Bludhaven, leading the Titans would give him enough of the action that he was always seeking out but keep him from the worst of it. But Bruce is delirious with this many pain meds in his systems, and all the wires in his brain cross and fizzle out in a spark of electricity.
So what actually comes out is, "Because he's... Dick." Well, shit.
Or
Batman wished he missed the League's meeting to vote on new members, because Nightwing's nomination prompts his overprotectiveness to lash out. What's especially bad is that he'd had been way too hopped up on painmeds and now the League thinks he's bitter about Nightwing breaking up with him.
