deep deep in the trenches of animated Batman media, specifically Batman beyond
It’s such a phenomenal way to think of Batman especially through a modern lens. Trey McGinnis is just a scruffy kid from Gotham with a passion, not a prodigy child who was molded for this. He’s literally a kid who was in juvie for a couple months, grew up in Gotham and loves the city.
he doesn’t have earth shattering powers or some McGuffin type trait, he is just a kid wanting to do good, he is in my opinion one of the best interpretations of modern day Batman.

I know we like to picture the entire Batfamily always in disposition of each other, living together in the Wayne Manor or crashing at each other's apartments; but i raise you, the Giant Family That Struggles To Meet Up Even For Holidays trope
These people get surprised when they see each other in the street and run up for a brief, tight hug before saying goodbyes immediatly because they still have to run errands.
Steph: *happily screeches from across street*
Cass: *also happily screeches from across street*
Steph: *waves and walks away*
Cass: *continues shopping*
They plan for holidays months in advance, trying to make sure plain tickets from Blüdhaven match up to the days Kate can take leave from work, check so no midterms are approaching and beg so no one ditches the plan for their second family.
Babs: Dick, please try to make this sacrifice. I agreed to come even though it means i have to ditch my father, you can just meet with Wally another time.
Dick: B-but... but its WALLY!!! I haven't seen the kids in what? Centuries???
Babs: We have enough kids at home, you can pet them instead.
Damian: I'm a high schooler?
When they finally gather around a table, they can't even make conversation around a topic because everyone has so much to catch up about each other
Jason: Yeah, I'm moving from my apartment at the Hill, I'm not sure if i wanna sell it though, it's 2 bed 1 bath, might come in handy later.
Tim: I, THE FORMER CEO OF FUCKING WAYNE ENTREPRISES, DOUBLE TRUST FUND BABY, LIVE IN A SHACKLE BOAT, AND YOU, MR. DEAD, HAVE YOUR OWN REAL ESTATE?
Jason: Hm, sounds like a problem. Would you be interested in buying mine for 10M?
Tim: NO!!!
Or, sometimes they decide to meet up in civvies, but only 3 people show up and they're the most random combo ever.
Duke: Hey, have we met?
Terry (McGinnis): I don't think so.
Talia (Kane): None of you have met my brothers, you see, my siblings and mother all broke their promise about having a family night, so i travelled across the multiverse in hopes of acquiring a new home where everyone would actually be welcome.
Duke: Count me in sister, let's go get some ice cream. What's your name?

There is a episode of justice league ultimate where Batman Wonder Woman and Green Lantern go 50 years into the future because a guy made a time traveling belt in his garage and tried to take something from the watchtower for his “collection”
Anyway I was just thinking about this episode in particular and how a time traveling villain vs Danny Fenton (because of course this is a dcxdp idea) where the villain keeps stopping and starting time and it doesn’t effect Danny at all and in frustration the villain asks “why isn’t this working on you!?”
And Danny, ever the harbinger of chaos shrugs and says, “nepotism, maybe?” And punches the guy in the jaw.
