SKY META
This started out as a fandomhigh-related post about how I'm going to play Sky, but as things tend to do inside my head, it blossomed into something a LOT bigger. So bear with me, this will have a point.

Oh, definitely. Sky considers himself to be so much more mature than the others, but at the beginning he does have a lot to learn about friendship, too. Disney Hero with lessons to learn is a great way to put it. He for the most part doesn't go out of his way to be mean to folks, except maybe Jack, and even then, when he gets yelled at and called on it he stops doing it pretty fast. A lot of his animosity toward Jack is due to Sky's own insecurity, too- watching Jack become Red over him had to sting and make him feel like he'd failed, and he unfairly used that to antagonize Jack for a while.
I don't particularly like overplaying his tendency to be an asshole when he's feeling defensive, so I've tried to steer him away from that with most other characters, and/or toss life-lessons in his face that force him to notice what he's doing and cut that shit out.
See, this is why I'm going to encourage the others to pick on him, too- it might help Sky get a sense of humour and relax a little bit if everyone around him shows that they're not impressed by Mr. Perfect Cadet. *g*
