But like I said. You're smart, and you seem okay with it. So I figure there's something I'm missing, and I'm trying to be more okay with it, too. Still gives me the willies, but I'm working on it.
The curse only has to do with him getting his identities mixed up, and nothing else?
Re: Private;
Trying to say, "well, you shouldn't have to make deals," is like me telling you that you need to feel things you don't, in that it's a fundamental lack of acceptance of his reality. Which he doesn't need. He's had so much of it that he's shocked these days when anyone meets him there without hesitating.
It's too late for initial impressions, but he's not unobservant. He'll notice if you're disturbed by his very nature every time you look at him. I'd appreciate it if you could sort your baggage out instead of laying it on him.
As for the curse, there are several versions of the story, and considering he's built out of human belief, perhaps they're all true. But what they have in common is that he was a legendary king, cursed, who ended up crazy and wandering. It makes sorting things out hard, especially with all the extra lives stuffed into our heads here.
His deals aren't a curse. Being a leprechaun isn't a curse. Being rewritten over and over into something new, while not fair, is also not a curse. Only the madness.

Re: Private;
No. The relief on his face whenever someone gets it is obvious enough. It's a weight lifted. He could use more of that.
He knows I hate what was done to him, and he also knows I think it's bullshit when people expect him to change yet again instead of accepting him as he is. Both things can be true.
I don't call him mad, generally. The fucking Admiral called him Mad Sweeney when pairing us, and I was pissed off about it. But I don't necessarily think there's anything served by dancing around the words, either, as long as I'm not flinging them at him in a derogatory way. Mostly, I let him use what words he wants.
