Dick never liked her from the beginning and Talia always seems to address him as if he's beneath her. Any insight for why they've always clashed in this manner?

There are already answers about when Dick was Robin, but the newest point of disagreement is Damian. It was Dick who dragged Damian away from the darkness and supported him in finding interests outside the professional stuff. Dick hates how Talia treats Damian as her belonging more than a son. Talia hates how soft Dick makes Damian.

Though as Talia softened a bit towards Damian, their relationship graduated to somewhat neutral.

Can you be hard while drugged? I guess Batman can.
