I don't get the impression that he was saying the best part about Blake herself is that she's a Faunus. I think he was saying that the best part about his story is that Blake is a Faunus. Maybe he hasn't had many Faunus friends and he's excited to finally meet someone who's like him. That would actually explain why in the hell he has so little knowledge about the White Fang and Menagerie that he had to have Blake tell him about all of it. And if you think it's just the writers using him as a way to tell the audience stuff, remember that they used Jaune for the same thing and there was an actual in-universe explanation for that, with the reveal that Jaune didn't go to combat school and didn't know about any of that stuff.

If Sun can learn and change, just as Blake needs to learn and change, then it could work. They could use each other to learn and change.

The rap portion of Like Morning Follows Night implies that Sun has decided to simply be by Blake's side and wait patiently until she someday acknowledges his feelings for her. It could be that, after she snapped at him for asking her to the dance in volume 2, he realized that dealing with the White Fang is more important to her than romance so it's not a good time to try to progress their relationship into something romantic.
