Of course finn will forgive you because he such a good and nice guy there is no way he would hate you for all the trauma youve caused him no way, YAY good for you![]()
Looks to me like he already has...that barber is going to create identity forging business soon
He is not on the run though. She assumes all he did was just leave. From her POV, there is no incentive for him to change his appearance when he did nothing wrong.So, she gets a makeover, dye job and colored contact lenses (odd bit of tech in a fantasy world...). Immediately bumps into Finn. "But they don't look alike at all." The thought NEVER OCCURS TO HER that he could have had the same type of makeover as her???
At the start he clearly states that his self confidence had fallen completely into the gutter and he had to spend a lot of time adventuring alone to gain bare minimum back. Also he throws up from merely remembering his nightmare where he trained with her/ she beat him up. So yeah. If that doesn't qualify as trauma I don't know what does.It doesn't really look like much of a trauma anymore. It was mainly just a massive waste of his time and basically keeping Finn from developing a healthy sense of self-confidence, but at the same time, he wasn't totally crushed, at all. The year after he left behind Finn and become Flick, or however long it has been, has more or less fixed most of the damage, so it would be an exaggeration to call it trauma. Not to mention, he still fancies himself a magic swordsman, not just a magician, so clearly even the time wasn't all wasted.
I suppose you might say Flick is like a person who worked for a black company for a decade, but then left it all behind. Using the experience from that decade of ruthless yet unrewarding grind, he would have got employed by a good company and is now acing his work comfortably.
