Nightwing is the one person Robin Damian Wayne is closest to, so it stands to reason that Damian’s best friend, Superboy Jonathan Samuel Kent would warm up to Dick Grayson easily.
This is the first meeting between Dick and Jonathan, given that before the Rebirth or New 52 reboot, Superboy was Conner Kent. Dick tries to put Jon at ease by juggling rocks after the latter flew at night and got lost, prompting a massive search by Superman and the rest of the Justice League.

I love this whole dynamic. I man we all know that Batman knows his way around kids normally but everyone can make a mistake.
We also see here 3 things:
1. He lets Nightwing, the first Robin, manhandle his cowl (and Nightwing knows 100% how not to get zapped by said cowl)
2. Going back to “Batman knows his way around children” he has a pack of Lollipops at the ready
3. Hew also can trust Nightwing 100% to let him muck about with his utility belt
Bonus fact: He knows when to listen to his friends and move the friggin’ pops to another pocket.
