(N) While he's Suit, imagine him talking in Astarion's voice from Baldurs Gate 3.

'This better work' I thought to myself as I made my way through the emaculate halls of Daten City's Twin Towers Lobby Floor as I along with my guards walked towards the reception desk.
*Flashback*
The a few days earlier, the day we took down the Shit Ghost.
"So your telling me that a group of demons are causing all this trouble in Daten city and are planning to open the gates of hell in the future and you know this being the main reason the lady up above sent you to help us out?" Garter asked me questionly at everything I said which didn't sound unbelievable but still questionable in his eyes.
"Yes, so besides helping out I'm also planning to go undercover and stop them from the inside out and completing their goals." I say with a nod.
'Though it's also so I can get some good secretaries through the demon sisters as for the most part they are extremely intelligent, they are also very gullible so it wouldn't be hard to win them over to my side after getting mistreated by their 'boss'' I think to myself.
"And how exactly are you going to get on their side when your not a demon in the-" he says before he stops as his eyes go big eyed as he sees me turn into a real demon with my skin changing, eyes, horn and devils tail which soon after retracted and disappeared as I looked back at Garter.
"Well? Do I look like a devil or what?" I say as he walks around me and gives me a once over.
"Hmmmm…. I don't know how you did it but I can feel the devilish energy just wafting off you, yeah you look no different than a demon, a high class one at that." He said as he rubbed his chin.
"But how you gonna convince who I think it is to let you join in on their plans?"
"Oh don't worry, I have my ways."

"Hello, can I help you with something?" The receptionist asked me as she looked up from her computer to look at me.
"Yes I have an appointment with the Mayor, will you let him know that his nephew has arrived?" I say as I comb back my hair with my hand as I look at her.
I could see her cheeks get flushed, her heart was racing and I could actually hear her gulping a little, clearly even in my demon disguise I was quite good looking.
"Ahh, *Ehem* Yes of course, you must be Young Master Suit, of course I will let the Mayor know of your arrival, if you want to take the elevator to the 66th floor, that's where his office is located." She said as she pulled herself together before letting me have access to the executive elevator.
I just nod as I walk towards the elevator, "You stay down here and guard the lobby." I told my bodyguards who just nod in response as I enter the elevator and head up to the 66th floor of the Daten City Towers.
'Of course it's 66th, if this place was over 700 stories I bet his office would be on the 666th floor instead.' I muse to myself as I begin the long ride up the elevator to the 66th floor.
'Spiral energy infused with illusion and manipulation magic makes it quite easy to convince people I am someone I'm not, even for decently high level demons like Corset.' I think as I recall how I tricked the slimy asshole of who i currently am disguised as to accept me with open arms into his humble abode.
'Good thing he's not a super genius nor that close to the Morningstar family to let him really believe the patriarch was sending one of his younger sons to help out on this mission, even if I'm not the heir apparent I am still a Morningstar and as such im much higher rank than Corset who in the underworld is only a 2nd Class Noble where as with the status I gave myself while not a Royal as I'm not a successor I am still considered 1st class in his eyes.' I think about it all some more before the elevator stops and I exit and move forward before heading for Corsets office.
Though before I even reached the doors they opened for me as two rather good looking demon girls held the door open before they bowed towards me.
"Welcome Young Master Suit, Sir Corset is waiting for you." They say to me in a polite and proper manner, but I could see the subtle shaking in their bodies, they were nervous, one wrong word and their lives can be ruined by me in their minds.
"Haha, no need with the formalities with me girls, just call me Suit, after all we will be getting along for sometime, now raise your heads as unlike my brothers I'm more than willing to be around those of lower status than myself." I say to try and ease the tension in the air before walking past them and entering Corsets office.
As soon as I enter I see the man himself in his true form with pale blue skin, long white hair wearing a suit with his signature corset on top with his lip less smile always plastered on his face, seeing him in person instead of on a screen was more creepy than what I thought.
"Ahh, Young Master Suit! How great it is to be in the company of one such as yourself on this fine day, please have a seat." Corset turned to face me before standing and motioning me to sit on the rather large and luxurious couch.
I just slightly smile before going over and taking a seat where as he returns to taking his seat while the Demon Sisters stand against the wall to my right as I begin my conversation with Corset.
"I must say I am quiet surprised your father was even interested in this endeavor of mine, from what I heard from him before was nothing but mocking and ridicule at the thought of being able to open the Hell Gates from a descendant of the Hells Monkey, but now he has sent one of his sons to help me? Now I find that quite odd…." He said looking at me strangely, but in response I just chuckle at what he said.
"Because he doesn't have faith in you at all Corset, he is sending me here on a fools errand as punishment for my disobedience, simply put I had no intention of tying the knot with a woman I have no love for and in defiance I did everything to ruin all of my fathers plans and making the wedding fall apart, so I was sent here on this mission to help you achieve it, if I can then father will forgive me and welcome me back with open arms, if we fail then I'll be sent on one fools errand after another until one succeeds and I'm allowed back home." I say not hiding anything behind words of flattery and telling them the 'truth' as to why I'm really here.
"…. Hooo? I see how it is…." Corset says as he stands up before walking from behind his desk as he went to the full body windows and peered out into the city far below us as he was left in thought.
"You know…. No one has ever believed that it was possible to open the gates before Judgement Day, that they will only open when the end times come and if they were opened to early they would send everything they have to stop me from my goal…." He says without turning to look back at me as he keeps looking out at the city as the sun was starting to set as night approached.
"But I know it can be done…. I can feel it in the straps all across my back." He says while unconsciously scratching his back in the process before turning to face me.
"Don't worry young Suit, we shall be proving you father wrong soon enough, and even more so it will be so good to rub it in his face as the rest of our race will have no choice but to promote me to 1st class devil allowing me to replace one of the fallen 72 pillar familys of hell whether they like it or not…." He said with a bit of a snarl in his voice before he returned to his desk.
"With that said for now you can enjoy staying at my villa outside town, while I won't be staying there personally, Scanty & Kneesocks will be residing their instead, use them how you see fit however I request you don't kill or break them, they have their uses and are useless to me dead." He said to me as he left me basically in control of the demon sisters in his stead as he will mainly reside in the Towers as they are the true entrance to Hells Gate.
"Very well, but I will make one last thing clear." I say as I stand up as I fix my tie before pushing up my glasses.
"I am working With you, but I'm not working For you Corset, if they mess up at their job it falls on them and them alone, are we clear?" I say with pure authority in my voice as a pressure is released from my body that forced the sisters to kneel while at the same time making it obvious it was putting some pressure on the old demons body as he turned his eyes to look up at me with his natural smile going even more wide and sinister looking at the same time.
"But of course, any and all failure falls on them alone, you have my word." He says and soon after the pressure receded before he turned to the two sisters.
"Go and bring him to the Villa and get him situated as we prepare for more of our plans, now I believe we are done here." He said as he looked at me where I just gave him a nod before I turned and left where I soon heard the footsteps of the two sisters following me from behind before we entered the elevator and headed down to leave the Towers.
"…. I hate it when devils do that to me, but no matter he shall help in this task and soon Hell's Gate shall reopen and the Other Gods will bend to my beck and call…." He said as his plans began to be set in motion, not knowing that he had gone from being the player to nothing more than a pawn in another's game.
