The Library Transporter System isn't going to let just anyone come to the Island.
First, you need to know the coordinates. Second, you need to know where the entrance/exit portal is located. Third, you have to deal with the angry Jaguar Girl if you wreck her Island in the Sun. Fourth, whatever she doesn't do to you, Phix will make sure to finish. Fifth, Phix likes spare ribs.

Yeah, I suppose you're right. After Phix has removed the face (or the whole head), the former owner of the ribs has no further use for them, so they're "spare".

Remember Devyn said she uses the portal system to visit her uncle at times as well so we can assume that it is an open transportation system.

Cheeky enough to poke a creature that terrified other Sphinx(and similar creatures) in the time forest. I wonder if Devyn has the metaphorical balls to pull this kind of stuff with Monica?

Making someone think you just nonchalantly murdered two girls for trying to roughly prod to you to go play with them is pretty heavy-handed. Devyn seems like she could fit in well with her relatives, which is a terrifying prospect.

I don't know--seems to me like Dyven has a pretty good handle on just how much force to use.
In the "pointless" side trip with the two bullies, she let them see just how their actions affect others. One discovered she is a horrible person, the other one lost her teddy bear.
As far as scaring Connie, you would have to do something pretty impressive to get her attention. Devyn now has Connie's attention; and I'm thinking connie wont talk down to her again.
Note to self; "Be nice to Devyn--always be nice to Devyn . . .always be nice. . ." 0.o

You do know that from an emotional point of view REAL teenagers do FAR MORE EMOTIONAL TRAUMA TO EACH OTHER ON A DAILY BASIS... often enough, out of boredom

I thought Connie terrified the
Sphinges in the Time Forrest not because of what she could do, but because of what she was?
That doesn't mean she couldn't rend one into small pieces with her bare hands, just that I can't remember that being mentioned.
also note, in Connie's complaints to Shelly, she is showing concern for Atsali & Nadette welfare, not her own. I don't think Connie was worried about Devyn causing her harm
Actually, that may not be true ... ?
"And I would be the one blamed!"
I know demons have a thing about not causing (physical) harm to their humans, and when Tina & Bud first met Tina had a 'freak out' moment when she though she had caused harm to a human (very hot coffee to Bud's face

)
Maybe Connie, as a single being formed from demons, has a similar 'do no (physical) harm [and allow no physical halm?]' compulsion? But in her case, it is to anyone (human or not) that is in her care?
Which would make her a good choice for babysitter, but a really hamper her ability to stop anyone in her care from causing harm to other?
