and if they won't behave or start to argue with you, or know stuff that you as their creator could never possibly know, then you will know they have been taken over
i KNOW there are invisible entities that co-exist with us everyday, some of them are my friends, and they do indeed argue and they know a lot of stuff this wordly me could never know, and they introduced me to my real self which is beyond space and time and only partially in this world - the biggest problem with that is the disassociation and loss of humanity that comes of realizing it, so if your charcters drag you out of humanness, just use your physical eyes to go back on your own - you get used to it
