considering that raphael was familiar with durgeās handiwork and tells them that when they first meet, canāt help but think of the potential that mizora is familiar with durge too or at the very least has heard their name mentioned in her circles. and in a wyll romance context, imagine mizora being vaguely familiar of durge meanwhile he doesnāt know anything about her past, so itās a surprise for her at first when she realises that the oh so gallant blades of frontiers is falling for someone thatās such a sinner. then the realisation that he doesnāt know anything abt them and theyāre also not telling him anything ..??? thatās too entertaining for her maybe sheāll stick around and wait to see what happens. mizora whispering in his ear telling wyll that durge isnāt what they seem, and heās gonna be so sooo disappointed later on when he finds out the truth about their sweet little love and because sheās such a generous and wonderful patron she can tell him the truth for the very small price of adding more shit in his contract - nothing is for free after all. like mizora giving him small warnings early on so she can say I told you so! later, and when heās not budging sheāll just remind him that he sold his soul to a devil anyway so maybe they really are perfect together. like just the concept of mizora meddling in wyllās business and being so so annoying in the romance (which doesnāt even have to be durge romance tbh but Iām thinking of it in the wyves (wyll/yves) context lol) is such a missed opportunity imo. like she literally has a tracker on him sheās very aware of whatās going on and I refuse to accept that she wonāt at least try to ruin the moment when thereās something romantic happening between wyll and durge.
and then you have wyll who chooses to believe their partner than to listen to the devil buzzing in his ear, the slow dread when he realises what mizora was hinting about durge was true when the act 3 reveal happens, and how proud he would have felt when he watched them deny bhaal and reclaim their own freedom because mizora had been so wrong about them.
also just because wyll is in a constant surveillance 24/7 imagine how uncomfortable it wouldāve been for him trying to show his affections towards his partner when thereās a voice planting doubts in his ear whether itās about his partner or himself. itās an active effort from him to block her voice out and sometimes it wonāt always work. so his affection comes out a bit restrained sometimes, a little held back, but then he doesnāt want his partner to worry so he puts a bit more performance but it pains him bc he knows that they deserved to be loved better than what heās showing right now and he wants to love them better but he just canāt in that moment ā¦
