Psychopath has superficial charismatic charm

Narcissist had boyish charm, child vibe

This is why narcissist's charm become creepy, slimy, unctuous: it is age inappropriate, gauche, cringeworthy, awkward

Add to this uncanny valley reaction:

Superficial charm and glibness in both the psychopath and the prosocial narcissist.

But, as opposed to the psychopath, the narcissist triggers uncanny valley reaction and is an ostentatious do-gooder: performatively moral, helpful, and altruistic.

Pathological charmers react with rage and aggression when their intended targets prove to be impervious and resistant to their lure. This kind of narcissistic injury -- being spurned and rebuffed -- makes them feel threatened, rejected, and denuded. 

Flashing: mask slips, cracks in the facade: impatience, irritability, frustration, aggression, contempt shines through
