John playing all mysterious and smooth and manipulative when we know for a fact that he’s just as lost as Arthur and is desperately covering how little he knows. Playing up his spooky nature and control over Arthur only to have mundane indignities and lack of control thrown in his face when he accidentally makes Arthur stumble over a dead body, bump into a noisy piano, and twice mixes up left and right in the first episode alone. How he has to almost immediately back-pedal from being scary and threatening because it turns Arthur into a hyperventilating mess and comfort him with piano music and a pep talk about how tough he looks because a host scared witless is useless. Arthur's rapid shifts between gibbering mess, hyper-competent detective, and terrifying killer who has already been talked down from murdering a man in cold blood by the more sensible eldritch entity living in his head once. Masterclass of balancing character power dynamics.
