Reminds me of the time we needed to infiltrate a Yuan-Ti city, so we painted the warlock green; the joys of being a Charisma based class. Warlock did not speak Draconian, and Comprehend Languages works only one way. Rogue did speak Draconian, but did not have Proficiency with Disguise Kit, so the Warlock pretended to have lost her voice in a sandstorm and whispered all her lines into Rogue's ear.

Oddly enough, my last session our party was interrogating someone my Bard Vi had a relationship with in the past. The woman we were interrogating didn't want to say the information while the party was there, and Vi rolled high enough to convince everyone to leave so that she and the woman could talk.
