"I built it," he beamed. "It's all mine."
He polished it every morning and covered it with heated cotton blankets every night. No one else was allowed to look at it without the use of special goggles, and from a distance of twenty meters (65.616669 feet) away. One time somebody got too close to it, and he became very alarmed and ferocious. The thought of anybody else touching it
repulsed him, and the thought of anybody else ever taking care of it made him even sicker. It was his, after all. He built it.
