(Let me see if I can manage coherency and not fail. Needless to say, this may not bear much resemblance to an answer to your post.)
Yeah, Ryuu is a psychopath. He also throws the data points out of whack.
I was just thinking this evening on the way home about Imagin and their relationship with their hosts, which seems to depend on the Imagin and their temperament. Bat Imagin, for example, couldn't find the right key holder to save his life (or close his contract), a lot of them didn't even bother other than a cursory or bizarre implementation of their host's wishes. (Which of course meant that people ended up dead/in the hospital a lot.) Heck, Kin's implementation of his host's desires involved beating karate dudes up! (He did admit that he knew Honjou's true wishes, and there was nothing he could do for that one.)
Ura seems a bit more clued in than the others. While all of them can tell when they get cut off (which seems to make them rather nervous), he's in more that one occasion picked things up where the others haven't. He picked up where Ryuu threw them all out of Ryo, and also there's a moment in there where he says that he senses Ryo is angry.
Which makes me wonder how much the Imagin learn to pick up in time, more than general ideas and a shape. I mean, Ryo's Imagin pick up when he blocks them out, but only Ura makes mention of Ryo's emotional state. One has to wonder if they can view his memories or whatever, though I really doubt it as the story about Airi and Sakurai the elder seemed completely new to them.
It goes back to that privacy issue I mentioned earlier in a way. Ryo has little to no privacy. Certainly none in his head, and since the Imagin can see out his eyes and use his sense... well, there's bad luck there. We know Momo really doesn't like being left in the dark, and I imagine the others are the same way.
I feel sorry should Ryo ever have a sex life, actually. If there's anything more embarrassing than admitting one is out of shape and needs to train, a sex life has to be it. Imagine sharing all those experiences with a bunch of other beings....
Speaking of wishes, while wishing the Imagin to be happy might count as a wish (if all of them recognize it as a wish; Momo didn't count Ryo's "I wish to have more time" as a wish while Kin was prepared to use the slightest little thing as one), but I also have a feeling none of them would fly, especially Momo. They'd remain with him forever. (I'm not including Ryuu in this since he doesn't fit the rest, as mentioned before. His happy would require Ryo to give up his body permanently.)
Speaking of our little psychopathic dragon Imagin, he seems to forget that while he has a pass, Owner does have a denial of service card. If Ryuu tried to force being "conductor" and endangered Denliner or the timeline, Owner could have him thrown out, card or no card. Even if he took over Ryo's body and erased his personality or permanently forced him out of control of his own body, he could be tossed out. (This would be cold comfort to Ryo, however.)
