I never said "I read the original story" so that straw argument doesn't apply. Shockingly bad attempt for you to try on a written forum.

I was however, referring to the Parthenius Papyrus.

    Parthenius' version doesn't say a whole lot about Narcissus being a little bastard. It says one line:

    He had a cruel heart, and hated all of them,

    That's not really a source, it's a completely subjective judgement. As a rule, I tend not to trust gossip about a person that says they're bad, but not why. Because we don't really know why Parthenius judged Narcissus. Conon said Narcissus was bad because he was asexual, so I'll hazard a guess that Parthenius may have agreed. Because it's literally the only clue we have about why Parthenius insulted Narcissus.
