Trying to get involved in their plans when all they know is that Torchwick likes to steal Dust, and that he's working with the White Fang doesn't seem like enough reason for the girls to specifically target them and ignore their studies at Beacon, unless one of them does something irredeemable and "personal" (like, say, targeting a specific family member or friend of the girls') that makes them suddenly "wake up" to what's going on.... So, it does give me reason to believe, along with the strong resemblance and similar interest to Blake, that Tukson is related to her in some way. I don't think Tuckson is a relative of Blake because they don't seem to be the same type of faunus. If Blake's hand didn't look like normal humans hands, she would have done something to cover the lack of fingernails like she did witht he cat ears.

Blake might have seem so affected in the trailer simply because she knew he was a former White Fang member and realises that just like he was hunted down and killed when he was planning to flee Vale, she might be hunt down, too. Given Blake likes reading, they might have been friends. Maybe she stayed with him in the time in between the Black Trailer and the starts of classes at Beacon.
