As I am BPD, Waite also has BPD symptoms, his anger is one of them! Folk with BPD experience very extreme emotions 24/7, so Waite is moody, his love and frustration is intense, and it takes little to trigger any kind of emotion. His anger is usually a flash in the pan and can be caused by simple every day inconveniences and frustrations- a little startling to witness since the fire that builds on him is very heart-on-sleeve subconscious reaction. he's (usually) self aware enough to not lash out in harmful ways like yelling or destruction- a reaction like that would have to be caused by him getting pushed to his limits by a serious outside threat like a rogue fae or something.
A major part of his storyline is facing a totally new world and deconstructing his lifetime of trauma. He explodes from frustration caused by that frequently and that is usually the basis for when I depict him getting upset, but his anger is usually not directed at anyone in specific. He absolutely hates hurting people and would rather turn everything inward to avoid hurting others
