She knows he wants people to think he's OBNOXIOUS AF so she's basically being defiant and considering him MILDLY ANNOYING when possible.
He reminds her a little bit of her second Master, as I've said before, though Jai was more a distant scarred asshole than a Lambert. When she likes him it's pretty much in spite of herself. Part of her wants to reach out and trust more, she's geared to want to depend on some others, but she's also like "I only want to trust him because we have to work together so often, it's proximity" and is very annoyed with how much she's confided already. Plus he loses his temper and that's so very much not a trait she's comfortable around, so she's more suspicious of him.
Scout kind of has a Thing about powers stronger than hers. (Most powers are stronger than hers.) No matter how hard she trains, and she's always training, no matter what she does to be better at her strengths, she can't close that kind of gap and so more powerful people feed into her inferiority complex. She tries to deal with this by not thinking about it.
The dragon thing is something she's just hella jealous of though. Ugh.
