- Kids Are Cruel
- Loners Are Freaks: Cyrus spent most of his childhood being teased by other children and reprimanded by his parents because he had no friends.

- Stepford Smiler: Cyrus's mother, definitely.
- Theme Naming: Both of Cyrus's parents have names based on the word "sky", or at least a rough equivalent: his father, Sora, is named after the Japanese word for sky, while his mother's name is meant to suggest "celestial."
