They are both devils - his wife (the author) has a shoulder angel and shoulder devil, along with an occasional shoulder princess, shoulder cave woman, and a few others that have appeared once or twice. Obby here gets a relatively subtle devil and an overt satyr-shaped devil.
I thought that was a possibility but they both look like devils?
Also I don’t think the metaphor is falling out of fashion, less common than it used to be, but I think everyone still knows it.
