With Bruce, it's Damien trying to understand a legacy he's determined to inherit, and Bruce is trying to file down the ego remove some of the nonsense Talia put in there.

Alfred is Damiens grandfather, and Damien KNOWS IT.

With Dick, it's Batman and Robin, with the cheerful and angry roles reversed. It's also about two brothers trying to find understanding and common ground, and at this point, Dick is likely the most important person in Damiens life. Part of my problem with the recent Titans arc was how badly these two interacting was messed up.

Tim has little patience for Damiens shit, and the two should not be left alone unsupervised.

Steph's sheer love of life confuses and scares Damien, and she hit on the understanding of him better than anyone else. "He has no idea how to be a kid."

Jason has embraced the role of asshole older brother with a passion. I remember a recent issue that had Bruce and the Robins meeting at a Not!McDonalds, where Jason steals Damiens happy meal toy between panels, and they spend the rest of the scene wrestling while everyone else pretends they don't know them.

Jon really doesn't get along with Damien, and would like to know why the little bastard keeps annoying him. He also got in one of the best burns on the kid ever.

He's a little shit, but some writers can make him a fun little shit. Others fail hilariously.
