“You were made to be tasted.” - Prompt by @dvilsdesire [Haarlep]
The first - immediate - impression had been that he'd somehow stumbled into the wrong room, into the wrong Devil, and for the wrong deal.
Mamzell Amira assured him that Raphael had been on-site today, in his usual private quarters on the uppermost floors. His voyage to Sharess's Caress was decidedly a private one at this time, for better or worse (and Gods, did he pray for the better), the distractions of his companions hadn't left him the adequate space to think, let alone decide the trajectory of Toril's fate.
Hence, it came as a shock, upon entering the door, to see that he'd staggered into their infamous red Devil... flagrantly naked, upon the spread of rich velvet sheets.
It was... Unlike Raphael to strike up any other subject with him but the matter of leverage. It was also unlike Raphael to flaunt any part below the collar in such scandalous fashion; spread eagled, with perhaps the intent to vaunt his rather sizeable display -- but he'd digressed.
What on the Gods-damned earth was going on?
"Er, where is- Raphael?" The words fell awkwardly out of Marcellus's mouth as if he hadn't properly formed them in his mind before he allowed his tongue to shape them - something, this strange imposter might have been delighted to know, was rather uncharacteristic of him. He let his arm drop from the door handle, teetering at the entrance as if deciding whether his entry was to be permitted.
Well, this stranger did imply he'd fancied a taste. Which was a call enough for at least one cautious step into the room, letting the door click shut behind him.
Sex was not a subject of embarrassment, far from. His encounters during his time in enslavement were frequent, and varied. But never had he'd anticipated to stride in on the one who wished to claim supreme power in the Nine Hells... being so wilfully indecent.
