"I'll do it," You say.
"It should be me," Taylor replies, shaking her head, "I want that demon gone, and I want to be a part of it."
You pause for a moment; this is going to be pretty unpleasant for you, and it wouldn't really hurt to leave it to her, right? Still...
"No, the Dean already knows that I'm looking into this - it will simplify things once we have the tape," You shake your head, "And you've been a lot more open with your hostility than I have. She's less likely to suspect a trap from me."
And, you leave unsaid... Taylor and Wyatt both prefer women, and Ms. Devlin is a succubus. Even if they go in there trying to set a trap, would that intent necessarily survive the trip? You're a very straight woman, so she shouldn't have any kind of sway over you.
Taylor looks like she wants to argue the point a bit more, but you can tell she can't find a good argument. Still...
"You can come with me when I deliver the evidence, tell the Dean how wildly inappropriate her behavior in class has been," You offer, "The tape might be the nail in her coffin, but we still need to hammer it in. Ms. Devlin wouldn't be the first teacher to get away with an inappropriate relationship, but you can make it clear that she shouldn't be one of them."
Privately, it seemed clear to you that the Dean was already fishing for an excuse to fire Ms. Devlin without making it an anti-demon thing, but... If Taylor wanted to be involved, this would be a safe way for her to contribute. And who knows - if it was just you, maybe Ms. Devlin would have found a way to squiggle free. Having this on videotape seemed pretty airtight to you, but you weren't exactly in the business of ruining careers.
Taylor still didn't seem entirely satisfied for some reason, but it looked like your offer largely mollified her. A part of you wished that you could do more for her here, but... You weren't going to risk getting your friend tangled up with Ms. Devlin. You'd take her down yourself, and let her handle the next problem.
Into the demon's lair; how quickly does the plan go wrong?
