Interesting. An almost immediate improvement. It was quite possible that the feeding on emotion allowed Gabe to get inside of people's heads, rather than the other way around. By duplicating a person's hormones, perhaps even brainwaves, it created a sympathetic connection. Similar to the effects of the Firestorm matrix, but temporary and more parasitic.
More importantly, Gabe seemed to be a passive feeder. Taking in whatever he could. If he could learn to control it, if he could do it without active effecting memories, he could be quite useful. But there was no way to trust someone who could change memories with a merely passing thought. Even the vague memories convincing enough to trick himself.
In a blink, he was back on the outside of the glass, his clothes settling in the wake of his sudden movement, his hands behind his back as if he'd never moved in the first place.
"Something like that," he remarked. Without knowing the real Gabe, he had no way to know if he'd even understand the concepts involved. "About the glass, not the carrot."
