“What.”

Jackson turns to toss another log on the fire.

“That you think you in any way shape or formknowme.”

I bark a laugh.

“Let’s see if I have this in line. You’re a narcissistic prick and an egotistical maniac with a massive substance abuse problem. You see yourself as ‘above’ the ‘normal’ people of the world, and your poor ego actually gets bruised when the people around you don’t fall to their knees in worship. How am I doing so far?”
