James is to most people, cocky, vain, sometimes self-obsessed person, who does mean well, but often comes across as the previously described things. In reality, James is more gentle and kind then he lets people on, but at the cost of keeping all his negative emotions bottled up, and when he finally breaks, he goes ballistic. This somewhat splits his personality between being his normal, calm side, and his violent and hateful side. Because of this, James has a mild form of depression, feeling at times that he barely has a grip on his own life, and nothing he can do will make it better. And also in a way, Jason also represents everything James hates about himself personified into one man.
