"As long as you're set," Zephyr says, with some doubt, and his continuing concern is rather obvious. "...wait, Devin? Doesn't know how to smile, suspicious nature, kind of a dick, that same Devin?"
Look, he's just checking. He's aware his experience of Devin can't be universal, but also he hasn't seen anything to imply to him that Devin has what you would call a softer side. As far as Zephyr knows, Devin stopped in to check on X out of self-interest.
