Does Dev push further?
Dev tests Gaslight on Gabriella
Gabriella appreciated Dev's kind words but Dev took advantage of this to continue his tests.
Dev: "Hey Gabriella, speaking of coffee, didn't Sandra ask you to get her some? Are you forgetting already?" his mouth curled into an innocent smile as his voice tranced Gabriella once more. For a split second she furrowed her brow... before blinking and snapping back to reality - Dev's reality.
"O-o-ohh, y-y-you're right. I.. I totally forgot, thanks for reminding me. Do you want a cup too?" her innocuous eyes were adorable for Dev, but he didn't want to let her go so soon now. He had just warped reality - at least as Gabriella perceived it. She was about to leave her photocopying task unfinished to do a chore no one had really asked for, all because Dev Gaslit her into believing it. Rose's powers are really real.
"How about I come with you. The coffee machine is in the kitchen, right? The more familiar I get with this place, the better, so I might as well accompany you." Dev could use this small window of privacy in the kitchen at the end of the corridor to use his third ability, and maybe even be a little bolder with the execution.
