[It really is lucky that Faust is the one to be brought here, especially because even if he knew of W's true alliances he would do virtually nothing to try and stop her. He has his own issues with Talulah and would do little to actually interfere if it came down to choosing between her and W. But that's not ever something he would probably admit out loud.]
... A magic trick. [Okay now skepticism and snark are definitely creeping into his voice since he's pretty sure W is messing with him.
And he isn't usually big on casual contact with most people but this is at least someone (he thinks) he knows. And they're both Infected so it isn't as though there's any reason to be concerned with there even though he definitely doesn't believe that she suddenly knows some cure for Oripathy. So after a moment of wary staring he does finally relent and hold out a hand.]
