Jimmy's relationship with Crake is in itself a Faustian deal. He can indulge in his darkest fantasies at the peril of the human race. Jimmy engages in meaningless sexual relationships with women who are married or otherwise unavailable. Jimmy accepts a lavish lifestyle given by Crake while the world literally dies.
