[The comment makes his brow knit together a little, because now that he is remembering things, he's a little embarrassed... about himself... There were very few things in his life that he really took pride in, but since he relied so heavily on manipulation to get through, he sort of held his ability to do so in semi decent regard. It's shitty but he really didn't have many other talents...
Moreover, flopping so hard just further drives in what a different person he had become at the whim of that group of people he hates so much.]

Maybe because he really did care for you... [Or maybe just because even with his more subdued personality, he still wouldn't have been as much of a liability as the Chizuru of those days would have.
He doesn't want to suggest something like that, though, even if he thinks it may have something to do with Kodo's decision regardless of whether or not the first part is true.]
It isn't work that I'm heavily involved in, at least. Or— I was more involved in it before.
