randomly feel like explaining those doodles a little more:
considering will’s actual body is that. weird. eye for an head shadow tendrils in a suit with claws
the more ‘human’ looking look, the phase ½ looking look like. is pretty much just completely a disguise/illusion type thing
so technically if Kai was switched into will’s ‘body’, they could make themself look…. close to themself as opposed to looking completely like Will
meanwhile with Kai’s body, Kai isn’t able to really shapeshift or illusion somethin without it looking like a version of them anyway, and it’d take more energy too for them, so Will in Kai’s body would just. Have to stick to the ‘normal’ Kai illusion and just still looking like Kai
kai’s in phase 1, rather early on in phase 1, while Will’s been in phase 3 for at least a century. Not only that, Will’s corruption is specifically for the sake of him acting as essentially an avatar to the main BR…. thing
But that’s still mainly attached to the ‘body’ in this case, so with this specific body switch scenerio, Kai’s suddenly forced into that
while Kai’s is just… mainly connected to their glitch mode and not so much being an avatar or anything, but even then phase 1 still has them as mostly themself, so Will in Kai’s body suddenly isn’t under such the huge influence and whims as the corruption in his body is
which must also be Incredibly Freaking Weird since it’s been like an actually super long time since he’s even been anything close to ‘himself’, whatever ‘himself’ even is now. Ironically, in being in someone elses body.
