What Shinji wish Riders are.

Shinji's still half asleep and still treat the dream as true events. And Ren actually smiles here, in one scene more than himself in the entire Ryuki!

In that vein, I think it's just that Shinji really bugs him (despite warming to him) and Yui really doesn't. For a misanthrope like Ren, there's going to be people he hates, people he teases, people he tolerates, and people he connects with. It's just
way way less
of the last one, of which Yui can count herself.
OK, I thought that emotionally healthy for Ren to you was correlated with how stoic and emotionless he is which stems from how aloof and misantrophic he is. Though he's not exactly rational that he still can come off as childish like with his uncontrolled temper and how he copes with his problems. I thought that even if he's less hostile to Yui than Shinji, he wouldn't be completely free of hostility to any other human or something. Especially that he sticks with her for an advantage, then she can be a... hindrance to him for winning that she forbids him doing something a Rider supposed to do (read: any immoral actions to win like killing), acting as his coinscience, and he fully submits to most of those.
Also just a trivia.
What was the most popular name for females and males respectively in Japan at 2012?

More like Shinji really proves to Tezuka posthumously here that fate is unpredictable, by him fighting against his destiny here, in line with how he doesn't believe in destiny or fate. I guess that Shinji's strength in stopping the war is actually his determination so doubled burden is important to him?

Kamen Rider Boss just backhands everyone all over the place, Ouja sort-of joins the team because he thinks Boss is a prick, Ryuki gets that awesome Strike Vent on an untouchable opponent, and Ryuki gets to have a big No, Eff YOU speech to get some heat back from Kamen Rider Boss.
Just sad that you left out this part before. Why Ouja cares if he thinks that boss is a prick? He's irredeemable and no one's a bigger prick than him!

Emu in defeating Parad but saving him shows that he understands that people can be reached which is kind of a theme Ex-aid actually.
Well, to make it less simple for Parado (all of his atrocities come from his game character status, but for this one is this), he's someone who, being from a game, used to killing enemies and objects in-game, thinks that real life is just an expansion of video games, which includes human lives. Parado thinks killing human lives (to have fun) is just like killing the NPCs in video games. He's like a GTA player who doesn't differentiate playing GTA (doing cruel stuff there) and real life, and t̶h̶e̶ ̶b̶i̶g̶g̶e̶s̶t̶ ̶f̶e̶a̶r̶ ̶f̶r̶o̶m̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶"̶a̶n̶t̶i̶-̶v̶i̶o̶l̶e̶n̶t̶ ̶v̶i̶d̶e̶o̶ ̶g̶a̶m̶e̶s̶"̶ ̶c̶l̶u̶b̶.̶ Emu killing him makes him differentiate life in real world and life in video games, based on how he feels during R̶O̶N̶!̶ Ren A̶k̶i̶y̶a̶m̶a̶ Amagasaki death, and that how he fears for his life, despite video game characters known for dying multiple times.
