My favourite way for Dick to be written is him just. Not swearing. He just doesn't do it. He got so used to the Robin persona, saying things like "gee whiz" and "holy guacamole Batman!" and "aw, shoot" that he just. Doesn't swear. He's a full grown man in his late twenties but he stubs his toe and shouts "sugar!!", you jump out to surprise him and he goes "jeez louise!" or something. Everyone makes fun of him for it, but it's not a choice anymore, that is just Genuinely his brain's first reaction now. There is a running bet/joke with the Titans to try and get Dick to react to something with a swear word, and they have not managed it yet.

mini batman meta - superman/batman: world's finest
okay so i'm reading batman/superman: world's finest issue #2 right? and we have this panel of dickie saying he's worried about superman [among other things] "even if batman isn't"
here ^^
but then we get the low-down from "count frankenstein" [as robin called him] and we see negative man do his thing and---
bats looks TERRIFIED, and it reminds me of battinson's line in the batman (2022) -- “I never thought I’d feel fear like that again,” he says. “I thought I’d mastered all that. I mean, I’m not afraid to die. I realize now there’s something I haven’t got past. This fear of ever going through any of that again. Of losing somebody I care about.” -- it's especially poignant in the movie because it shows that apart from trying to push the persona of bruce wayne away, the reason bruce was so cold to alfred was that he was afraid [source]. Robin probably only assumed that Bats didn't feel worried was that Bruce was supressing the fear, it's an established part of his characterisation at this point that he's not open with his emotions. This makes even more sense for him in-character for emotions that make him feel afraid or uncomfortable -- being afraid of losing superman and being afraid of that fear and feeling like he did when he lost his parents again [if that makes sense??]
what i'm building to here is, we see bruce terrified, no longer stoic, and it's great.

Btw I have no idea if it’s known about in the wider fandom, but there’s a sizable amount of riddler-centric fics on AO3 where he adopts Steph after he kills/otherwise maims her father. There isn’t a point to this I just thought you all should know about it

@arobinwithoutbatman is rescuing Dick
God it hurt. Where was he? Had they moved him again? He didn’t know; it was hard to think through the pain. Through the fog of...whatever they’d given him. Had they drugged him? Maybe. Probably. Definitely. He could remember questions. A needle. More than one? Wrists chafing. Ankles too. Had to focus. Had to think. Had to fight it. A hand in his hair, pulling. More pain. More questions. Fight it, focus, think…
Someone talking. Skin sticky. Need a shower. Who was laughing? Did need a shower though. Hungry too. Thirsty. Focus on that. Stinks in here, should hire a maid service. Smell of stale sweat, smell of blood. Got any Febreze? Vodka-water for fabric, worked great in the circus. What’s the number for room service? Ignore the questions, no questions, no interview, sorry no comment, no comment, no comment-...
God it hurt. Where was he? They’d stopped? No...he’d passed out. Pain? Or something else? Did it matter? How long had it been. Days? Weeks? He’d lost count. Hard to keep track. Had to stay alert. Had to stay focus. Someone would come. He’d be missed. Someone would come. Someone...a door, opening. Hand in his hair again. Voice, demanding. Impact. Groan. Was that him? Couldn’t think, had to think, to focus, oh god not another needle, not more, not this, had to focus, had to think, so hard to think, hard to fight it, had to fight-
Darkness. Silence. Too much silence, ears ringing, need sound, noise, something, too quiet, too quiet, no-...footsteps? Footsteps, outside, heard them, hadn’t he? Maybe. Hard to tell what was real now. So quiet, why so quiet, need noise, sound, something, was that the door? Don’t move, stay quiet, no motion...if no sign of consciousness, maybe they’d leave him alone. Maybe. Hopefully.

Nightwing's Log, Night 7 Supplemental
Alfred said something the other day about me being a lot like Bruce. I told him he was full of it, but I'm pretty sure we both know he's right. I got banged up pretty bad in that fall onto the mass grave, but what choice do I have but pushing through it? I'm taking care of myself, I swear, I just. Don't have time to sit around and recover the way I probably should. And the fact that I can hear Bruce saying the same thing in my head just underlines what Alfred was saying.
But at the same time I'm nothing like Bruce at all. Bruce was a leader and I'm. I can be, sure, but not…not here. I dunno about the others, but it almost feels wrong trying to step up into that spot. We're a team, and okay, a team needs a leader in theory, but…I'm not sure it should be me. I'm not even sure the others look at me like that in any case.
And then there's the audio log in the last cache I found. It was about me. Or at least, about a dream Bruce had about me. And about some things he wanted to say to me. Things I wish I'd known. We never really talked, after I left…not like we should have. To hear him say that…to say that Batman needed to be more like Nightwing, that was…I never imagined he'd even think that, let alone say it.
And he said he was proud of me…
He called me his son…
I wish we could've had that talk. Because he was wrong about one thing in that log.
I do still need him. We all do.
But we gotta keep moving. Hopefully the four of us are enough to fill the shoes he left behind. I know just me, on my own? I'm not.

Idk why but this scene came to me so I made a little comic
Danny: *on a rooftop in Gotham*
Signal and Red Hood: Hey dude you good?
Danny: Hello fellow Meta-Humans! It is I, a Meta-Human boy! 100% alive and thusly protected under the Meta-Human Rights Act!
Signal: …
Hood: I believe him.
Danny: Thank you fellow living person!
Danny: *leaps into the air, legs turning into a spectral tail* away!
Hood: So, that was definitely a ghost, right?
Signal: yuuup.
LATER
Nightwing: and then he… flew away like Peter Pan? At least come up with something more believable than meeting a hazmatcore fae child on a roof who called you a quote “fellow living person”
Hood: it was a GHOST, Dickiebird.
Nightwing: Ghosts aren’t real, Hood.
Hood: there’s a ghost in the Justice League!
Nightwing: THE WATCHTOWER IS HAUNTED?!?!
Hood: …
(Yes Danny’s hair does get more floaty when he’s happy and I will die on this hill)

Everyone just goes to Dick's place and he welcomes them as long as they do something for him in return.
Jason knocks on Dick's door, helmet already off - Hey Dickiebird, *flashing him with a large smile* I'm gonna crash here cus Bruce knows where all of my safehouses are now and I don't wanna face him.
Dick - As long as you cook, Jay, cus I have a broken arm right now. And you patch up whatever argument you have with Bruce.
Jason - You're no fun, Dick. And let me patch your arm first, you're gonna bleed out.
Dick - Aw Little Wing looking out for his big brother.
Jason - You big goof.
Tim has made a duplicate key of Dick's apartment door because that boy is always steps ahead of everyone.
Dick is startled as he settles on the bed, getting ready to sleep - What the fu-Timmy! How did you- I'm not even gonna ask.
Tim flashes the duplicate key with exhausted eyes - Yup, already made a duplicate, Dick. And can I sleep in your place tonight? I don't think I can make it to the Manor.
Dick already has his arm wide open for Tim - As long as you don't snore, Timbalina, cus you've been awake for days now.
Damian tries his best to unlock Dick's apartment door with his katana.
Dick is already opening it before Damian can do it for himself - Hey, Dami.
Damian - Grayson. I'm here tonight cus my cycle has a flat tire.
Dick - But you know how to fix that, Dami. Is that an excuse cus you just miss me?
Damian, doesn't say anything against that - Tt. That's absurd.
Dick - You can stay here if you like, even for more than one night, as long as you let me cuddle you.
Damian - That's too childish.
Dick - Then you can't stay-
Damian - Fine, fine.
Wally already zooms inside Dick's apartment before Dick could even close the door when he got his food delivery - Hey, Dick. Gonna stay here for a while. I burned my place and I'm hiding from Barry and Iris.
Dick - As long as you don't burn my place.
Wally - Won't let anything happen to you.
Bruce is already in Dick's place before Dick comes home from patrol - Hi, Chum. Just checking to see how you're doing.
Dick - You're really getting soft in your old age, B. I'm good.
Bruce - Can I stay here for the night? Just to make sure.
Dick - As long as you try to get some sleep, B. Instead of moping around.
Bruce - I'll make sure you sleep first.
Dick - You gonna tuck me in like before?
Bruce, without thinking and hesitation - If you want me to.
Dick - Getting soft, old man, getting soft.
And Dick doesn't mind that his loved ones go to his place. They don't even have to do something for him in return.
