what's so refreshing about will as a character is that he doesn't throw a denial tantrum about it at any point like most characters with Darkness Within Them do. he's not a moral paragon, his angst and secretkeeping don't get annoying at any point. and i think it's because there's no contrast between who will Really Is, which is Good and True, and the dark king as his shadow or his dark self.
will is the dark king. he behaves like the dark king. he lies and he manipulates and he's a "sneak" and he's scaringly charming and he's possessive over james and a ton of other messed up shit and he tells himself it's for a good reason, and maybe it is!! and will is clearly you know. a Good Person. while his methods are sneaky, he does not actually do anything wrong. but those are his methods still, and they are cool moments and badass and also kind of eerie.
with the way he's written, i would argue will doesn't have or even need a corruption arc, he's just like that from the get-go and he's not gonna change. and i don't mean he was born evil or whatever other bullshit i mean that he was born a full person, including the dark king and will both, and there's complexity, but no clear line separates them.

Can we talk about how, when Anharion and the Lady arrest Sarcean in Will's vision, Sarcean says to them:

And then, when James arrives in the palace and stands alongside Visander in Katherine's body, Will says:

Punch me in the throat, why don't you, Pacat.

Ah, I can't wait for "Later, she’d remember that Will had been the only one talking about stopping the army, while the rest of them were caught up in old feuds".
I fervently want to know how this "later" will play out, I'm counting on Violet in a level I can't start to explain.

Like, can we talk about the fact the Will literally threw up when he saw the collar on James? The thought that James didn't come to him on his own, that he was now under his control, caused a physical reaction in him. This to me speaks for itself.

ok but the parallel of Violet fighting the shadow king in the end of dark rise and believing in herself because Will believed in her vs James in the end of dark heir using every bit of his power to keep the gate open and again reminding himself that Will had faith in him someone please tell Will how much he inspires those around him pacat please end his suffering

Look, I’m just saying that “Darling, I’m not here to kill you” single-handedly altered my brain chemistry.

ok wait but anharion/james wasn't being fully controlled by the collar, right?? like will was like "holy shit he's just mirroring my desires" but james says "i will conquer everything with you" and that ISN'T mirroring his desires, so it's clear james wasn't repeating everything will wanted him to say, AND james/anharion clearly had other shit fueling his loyalty cuz there's the obvious thing of "i remember everything from my past life" SOOO???
tbh i think people have the history of the sun king and the queen slightly twisted, i think the sun king was worse and sarcean was better than people think they were. somethingggg is going on in the background, very sus! but obviously sarcean is an ass going from will's memories
