[Happier like this? Yeah, right. He knows whatever happiness he gets out of this is just going to be some kind of delusion. Keep him going with some degree of pacification, then point him in the direction Ragyo wants him to start swinging.
As the COVER closes over him, he starts thinking about it. Inumuta had mentioned they were going for the nudist beach headquarters next, right? That'd mean Satsuki, Iori, the nudist beach guys...Matoi too, if she's still unconscious. To think they'd bet so much on that girl and here she's more useless than she's ever been when they really need her. Maybe it's unreasonable, but as much as he knows the festival - and everything she learned from it - was probably tough on her, the stakes were really high right now, and their numbers were falling fast. She was their last hope and she couldn't do anything right now.
But then it clicks in his head he's just as useless now too, isn't he? He'd no right to judge her if he was going to just roll over and give up like this. He'd no right to talk about uselessness if he was going to be useless as well. No matter what, he couldn't give up, not until everything really was out of control.
As long as he had even some amount of consciousness, no matter how little it was, he still had a chance. He could still muster up some resistance and fight.

That was his resolve.]
