God, that was the best he could have hoped to hear, honestly. Going into a tired speech trying to explain the details behind it just would have got him laughed at, whereas this blind faith was like something out of a fairy tale. "Right, yeah thanks." He replied, not exactly certain how you come back to a comment like that. He had never been good at conversation in the first place, adding a female element to it just made it all that much worse. It as something about the way they looked, inviting on the appearance but inside their judging little minds probing you and weighing your values as a man. It was enough to drive anyone insane. His eyes slipped down to the amount of money she dumped onto the table. And the higher ups don't get paid much more. "Right, well I'll be seeing you around then, Miss Faith, it's been a pleasure." His tone was genuine as he watched her leave, deciding himself to stay in the diner and collect his thoughts a bit more, weighing up both sides of the argument. This turned out to be false, however as Cerulean spun on the spot and settled the whole ordeal for him. Raising to his feet with a toothy grin stretched over his face, he went into a powerful his whole body tout from the action. "Yes, mam!" Completely serious to her less than command. Honestly, he had no idea how the girl maintained her position when she acted like that, he had been expecting someone so much more official than that.
