Monologue through a stone of farspeech or a ward-tripped illusion spell. Hell, have the villain's illusion disintegrate only for it to trip 18 other wards that all seamlessly continue the monologue in a deafening cacophany of voices, like the BBEG knows alllll the tricks. I feel like a good DM can get creative on the spot, even if it trips them up a bit.

    Monologue through a stone of farspeech or a ward-tripped illusion spell.

    I'm convinced this was the primary reason D&D3E had so many ways to speak through an animal companion or construct.

    When I DM-ed, I used them to (attempt to) deliver foolishly informative villainous monologues.

    Mostly I just lost villain companions to fireball, of course.
